True Blood: Don’t Do That In Front Of The Baby!
So on last night’s “True Blood” a lot went down for once. Apparently Alan Ball found the light and actually had Tommy do the first smart thing he’s ever done, he whacked his parents! Sam of course helped dispose of the bodies. Apparently we only get one smart thing in an episode, as Sam really should have fed Tommy to the gators along with his parents.
After nude-o-rama staring Alcide last week, he was back to a blink and you miss it scene this week. He met the new pack leader, who from previews is clearly the father of Sam’s new girlfriend’s kid.
Bill had to glamour his great great great granddaughter Portia in order to get her to stop wanting him. I actually thought her “research” into whether what they were doing was incest was kinda humorous! He’s still her grandpa though 🙂
Arlene and Terry called up “those people” to help drive the devil and ghost from their home. “Those people” of course were Tara’s mother and her new husband, the reverend she was having the affair with. Yeah, something tells me anything those two do to drive bad energy from a house isn’t going to work. I did find it oddly creepy that at the end of the show they were “doing it” while the demon child and devil doll were feet away in the crib.
Jason, having been saved by Jessica’s blood, is of course dreaming of her. His sex dreams with Hoyt watching and then joining in were pretty funny! From the spoilers though, it looks like Jason and Jessica do end up having some kind of affair. Poor Hoyt!
Sookie went to investigate Marnie, who she asked for a reading. Gran however took over and warned Sookie that the man she was falling for, it was temporary and not to give her heart. Gran also warned Sookie that Marnie was dangerous and to run! Sookie only half listened to Gran though, she avoided Marnie . . . just not Eric!
Bill had Marnie arrested after he saw that she cast a rotting spell on Pam. However Marnie truly doesn’t know how she cast any of the spells she did. We got some back story, from a Spanish Vampire, about the witch Antonia who is possessing Marnie. She hated Vampires and using her magic forced them all to walk into the sun and die. It seems though, that nobody knows Marnie is channeling Antonia. The one vampire just told her story to explain how powerful witches could be.
Lafayette and Jesus went to see Jesus’ grandfather, the black magic practitioner. Nope that isn’t going to end well! Especially since he claimed he’d been expecting them.
At the end of the show Tara learned Sookie was letting Eric stay with her, and was furious. Bill learned the same thing, and he’s equally as pissed!
Soooo, I understand that it lead up to Tommy killing his parents, but I didn’t get why Tommy didn’t change to a bird or small animal to get out of the chain hold. It would have made more sense to me for him to escape that way, then come back and go after his dad. I wondered if the silver chain had something to do with him not being able to change, but I think silver only has effect on vampires?

Maybe it’s hard to shift if you can’t breath?
Nice write-up Dustin, but I’m guessing you don’t have kids. Lots of parents “do it” with the kid sleeping in the same room – not to be weird, but because that’s where the baby sleeps (although it’s usually “ninja sex” – super quiet). Usually the alternative is to go to another room, but if there are any older siblings that gets to be complicated, or, most often, parents of young kids are just too exhausted to move to another room.
Wonder how Pam’s face will be restored. I’m guessing she won’t stay that way for the duration of the series!

I was thinking the same thing. The entire time his dad had the chain I was wondering why he didn’t just change into a bird or other small animal. it didn’t make sense to me.

I do get the whole baby sleeps there, you gotta do what ya gotta do . . . . . but not when it’s devil baby! That’s the last thing you want that kid seeing (or his doll)

Good point about the devil baby Dustin…

By the way, Sookie was pretty nonchalant about Eric crying his bloody tears on her bedding.
I used to think that Soookie with Eric could be exciting, but not with this new dull Eric. At least get him a change of clothes. Now Bill seems like the exciting one (but Alcide’s best!

A friend brought up another point today, when Eric went to the witch meeting, does she also live there? If that is her home would he not have needed to be invited in, or is that just classed as her store.

Eric didn’t need a invite to the witches meeting , because it was being held in a public place. Vampire can enter any public place without an invite, because it’s open to the public, which is an automatic invite.
Tara ( who’s getting on my last nerves) keep harping on Bill not saving her from Franklyn . Did she get hit in the head,and now suffer from memory lost, or is she just an idiot? Tara knows Bill was kidnapped, did she forget? Tara knows this because Sookie told her that Bill was kidnapped and she left town to find Bill. Franklyn confirm that Bill was kidnapped by Russell. ..So Tara should know that the reason why Bill didn’t save her was because he couldn’t save her. So even if she forgot that, she should at least remember her and Sookie having to go back to save Bill. So if Tara had to save Bill that should have told her right than he wsn’t in any position to save her. ..and as for Eric drinking Sookie’s blood, Tara knows that Eric only did that to trick Russell into walking into the sun.
Hey, now that Tommy killed both of his parent, he now will be a skinwalker. So who do you think he will shift into first, Hoyt ,or Sam?

luvprue1, I forgot about that skin walking stuff. Hmmmmm…
I too am annoyed by Tara. She really doesn’t have an interesting storyline this season. She seems to just be tagging along with Lafayette.
There sure a lot of different storylines going on this season.

The clip I posted from Comic Con shows Sam beating the crap out of Tommy and saying something along the lines of he trusted him for the last time. So my guess is Sam?
