True Blood is back on our screens, bring on the blood, guts, and naked people folks! Seems to me with the premier the writers got some of their groove back, we all know last season was a little bit of a mess. They started to clean up and draw lines, but first of course we start exactly where things left off. Billith the biggest WTF ever.
Billith completely destroys what is left of the authority or at least the building. Thankfully Eric, Sookie and as Nora so nicely called them “rag tag band of f–k ups” make it out. The death of this episode turns out to be Luna, not a huge surprise given the bad state of things when we last saw her, but she makes Sam say she will take care of the kiddo and he agrees.
Truman Burwell the Governor of Louisiana has declared war on vampire essentially. Saying they can not go outside after sundown and he will be closing down all vampire owned businesses. What I find funny about that is that later in the episode he is working a deal with the True Blood people, and declares he wants them to be tax paying citizens. Typical politician. Be wary of any guy who quotes ole Andrew Jackson.
With Pam and Nora having an argument in the car Daddy Eric has a very I am pulling this car over moment and yanks it over to have an argument with Pam, in which he very big boy says, Have my Back or Get out of my Face. Given the problems at hand, we can not blame Eric for that one. Pam and Tara have a moment on the beach and later on we see Tara come along and zip up her pants, so we know how that moment ended. Jason being Jason holds a gun on Nora, Eric so would have killed him right off if he was not Sookie’s Brother, but Sookie steps in and manages to get the guns and such released, before running off. Then Billith pages Jessica and it is a very painful thing, she even pukes blood all over Eric when he tries to keep her from going. Pam officially gets a you rock from me for being the first character to call Bill..Billith.
The wolves are busy eating up their old pack master, yummy remind me never to go do a BBQ with them. Then they all go on a run, getting naked first of course. Once well enough into the woods we get our first rear end shot of Alcide for the season, also Ricky makes the gal he was making out with submit to her. Proclaiming to Alcide, I am your number one Bitch.
Andy has his hands full with the fairy babies. Arlene gives him one heck of a lecture about life not being fair, there is no Santa clause and when you stick mr. happy in a hoo ha with no rain coat on babies come out. After he learns how to change them, put them to bed and all seems well the household wakes up to young children. Can not blame them for screaming!
Jason hitches himself a ride with someone he thinks is all nice and good and tells a big ole story of his life too. Yeah to bad for him turns out to be Warlow the very guy who wants his sister, and that he does not want anything to be around. We love you Jason, but you are still not that bright.
When the car of Jessica and Sookie arrive at Bills house they follow the fun bloody foot prints to a dusty pile of blood. Then on out to the back porch, its like a bad game of follow the bread crumbs but they find Billith looking much more like Bill and dressed. Eric and Nora rush in and we have a fight going on, scary thing #2 Billith is stronger than 1,000 year old Eric, scary thing #3 when Sookie stakes his butt he does not goo. Oh and did we mention he did not mind standing around fire and such as it burned back at the authority? Yeah things are not good. It is worth noting that Bill’s tone seems to have gone back to that cool modulated tone he used back in Season 1, of course he was a big fat liar then so even when he has a touching Daddy moment with Jessica I do not trust him at all. Especially when he makes earth quakes happen.
Eric once again does the very noble thing to Sookie first offering to give her money to go away. They have a sweet (almost too sweet) moment about her always being the girl in the white dress who walked into his bar. Then using his own blood he signs over Sookie’s house to her, saying he will put the deed in the mail. Sookie promptly rescinds her invitation on him, but he does not make any big dramatic scene of it like Bill did that time. Eric has to remind Nora not to bring any of the emotions he has for Sookie into things, rather firmly though if you ask me she did not seem to listen very well.
We end the first episode of the season with another bit of a WTF moment when three Lillith’s show up and run into Billith…to bad one of them wasn’t ya know someone we like….like Godric.
