So....um....we launch straight into the disgusting part of True Blood immediately. It's like they're not even trying anymore to pretend that this show isn't just some violent porno. We pick up where we left off in the last episode: Vampire Eric tosses away the dismembered arm of the guy he just killed in the basement as Lafayette looks on, horrified. Eric is just covered in blood, but is mostly concerned about the blood mixing in with the highlights Pam applied. Eric unlocks Lafayette and takes him to meet with Pam.
Cut to Bill's house after the credits, where he and Sookie are lounging in bed. I just read a quote from Catherine Zeta Jones who said she'd love to do a movie with her husband, Michael Douglas, but wouldn't want them to play a couple in it, as that seems a little voyueristic. I was just thinking the same thing about Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer. I mean, they're a couple in real life. This is kind of creepy, isn't it? In case you didn't know that, I'm telling you now, so you can be as slightly disturbed as I.
ANYWAYS, the point is that Sookie and Bill are taking about the awesome make-up sex they just had. Sookie's embarrassed that she was sleeping with her boyfriend while Jessica was in the same house and suggests that Bill go a little easy on her. But Bill just sees Jessica as an evil, blood-sucking vampire. Sookie suggests he try a different tactic, since his current plan with Jessica isn't working out so well.
Back at Fangtasia, Pam is trying to fix the mess that is Eric's hair. We learn that Eric took Lafayette to discover his supplier of V (Eddie Fournier). Lafayette is only too happy to spill the beans in order to protect his own ass, but he admits he isn't sure what happened to Eddie. Eric threatens him a bit more and Lafayette says he thinks Jason Stackhouse might have something to do with Eddie's disappearance. Pam and Eric converse in a foreign language and quickly conclude they won't make a move against Jason, since he's Sookie's brother and Sookie is too important to them.
Eric asks whether Lafayette may have known a V dealer in Dallas and he admits he did, though he only has an email address, not a name. Eric reveals that an old friend, Goderic, has gone missing and that he's a very old and powerful vampire. Eric wonders whether this Dallas dealer knows about Goderic. Eric orders one of his minions to take Lafayette back down to the basement, something Lafayette doesn't take well to.
"It’s like they’re not even trying anymore to pretend that this show isn’t just some violent porno." This is why I gave up after 2 episodes last year. I caught part of the season premiere and then turned the channel. I'd much rather follow the story through your recaps. Sorry you have to take the hits for me. I'm interested to what they do to the story since I've read all the books.
Glad you are keeping your sense of humour. See you next week.

Hey, sometimes I don't mind the fact that the show is just some violent porno. What the heck does that say about ME?!
Happy to recap for you, though!

Oh god that makes me gag a little- he is what, twice her age, and rather homely-he must have other stunning characteristics;)
Like Midday, I was kind of surprised at the extent of porn they show- that coming from land of blatant sexuality on at 7pm on the regular channels! I haven't red the books, so I don't if they are actually like that or just being exploited because they can.
Enjoyed your recap- and I think maybe I'll just stick with those for now. Still interested in some of the characters, just without the graphics:)
Midday, how did a sweet innocent Winnipeg-to-NZ-to-US girl get into this project I wonder? I watched Fly away Home, just to remember when she was not that much younger, but a whole lot more innocent:)
*shudders* they are together? Really ???
They are really REALLY together. He's, like, 13 years older than she is.
Thanks for this though: "Oh god that makes me gag a little- he is what, twice her age, and rather homely-he must have other stunning characteristics;)"
Cause that just freaked me out even more and took me to a place I didn't really want to go.
