sam_merlotteAt work, Jason and Hoyt are talking about how surprised they were about Rene.  Jason tells Hoyt about getting in with the Fellowship of the Sun and Hoyt doesn't like that the Fellowship promotes hatred of vampires.  Sookie comes by and she's looking a lot better now, thank God.  Sookie tells Jason about Uncle Bartlett and offers the inheritance to Jason.  Jason offers to split it, but Sookie thrusts the check at him and clearly doesn't want it.  She drives off to work.  Jason interprets this as a sign to join the Fellowship and go to the leadership seminar.

We get another flashback to teenage Sam and Maryann having sex.  She goes all haywire and starts vibrating and chanting or something.  It's all very weird and she says he's not the only one who's "special".  At Merlotte's, Sam is dragged out of his memories by Arlene, who encourages Sam to hire a new waitress.  She introduces him to Daphne, who wants to apply for the job.

Back in the dungeon, the prisoners are turning that wheel again and the AIDS guy is trying to make conversation with Lafayette, who isn't interested in chatting, although the AIDS guy apologizes for being a jerk to Lafayette earlier.

Back at Merlotte's Andy is trying to interview the patrons about Miss Jeanette.  A slutty girl is hitting on Jason, who turns down her offer of booze and sex.  She turns to Hoyt, who's too slow to respond, and then she leaves.

Two ladies at the bar make some off-handed remark about how Rene was dug up and turned into a vampire.  Arlene comes by and shuts the two ladies up, obviously still upset about the fact that her former boyfriend/fiance was a crazy psycho killer.  Terry Bellefleur comes by and throws the two ladies out of the bar.

Jason tells Sookie about going to a leadership conference, but lies about the name of the church.  She tells him about trying to pack up their grandmother's room.  Jason also says he loved Amy, despite the fact that she was a crazy V addict and then Andy comes by, telling Jason he has some questions for him.

Bill is getting Jessica to try the different versions of Tru Blood (A+, B -, etc), but she would rather drink human blood, which Eric allowed her to drink.  Then, out of spite, she throws the glass bottle into the paper recycling bin.  Evil, unholy fiend!
