So this post is a combination of a very quick summary, along with some thoughts about what was happening . . . I’m writing this right after the show aired on the east coast so I haven’t had time to process it all and give it a lot of thought 🙂

We picked up with the raid of the Authority headquarters and Bill becoming Bilith (Pam actually referred to him as this at one point, and it was awesome!). Everyone fled, the headquarters blew up, and Bilith floated off into the sky . . . As everyone plotted to “Kill Bill,” Eric’s sister Nora was more concerned with one Warlow and knew Jason knew something about him. When he wouldn’t tell her willingly, she as Jason put it “brain raped him” to find out what he knew about Warlow. That was the last straw, Jason disowned Sookie for sticking up for the vamps and took off, vowing to kill all vamps. Nora revealed later that Warlow is in the Book of Lilith, he was her first progeny . . . I have a theory about him, we’ll get to that soon.

Jessica then started feeling Bill was summoning her, and he almost tore her apart in doing so. They took her to Bill, who had superhuman powers. Sookie tried to stake him to save Eric, but it didn’t kill Bill! Bill swore he was still Bill, but also was now something more that he didn’t understand. Jessica chose to stand by him, while the rest abandoned him.

Eric repaid Sookie for saving him by giving her back the deed to her house. She realized she needed to get back to the woman she was before him, before Bill. She then rescinded her invitation to him, forcing him out of the house. Nora was waiting for Eric . . . she is convinced Warlow is important and wanted to use Sookie against Bilith. Eric forbade that, and she realized that Eric loves Sookie. Duh! You just figured that out?

Back at Bilith’s, Jessica realized Bill had powers that even he doesn’t even understand. He then saw flashbacks, what looked to be Lilith being chained and killed. He was summoned to a room where naked Lilith was all around him, and then she entered his body! So my thoughts . . . I think Warlow betrayed Lilith eventually and ended up killing her, much like Judas and Jesus. I think that’s what is going on, and I think Bill and Warlow will end up facing off at some point.

Speaking of Warlow . . . he’s back in town for Sookie and ended up picking up a hitchhiking Jason! Jason didn’t realize he was riding with his parents’ killer until he told Warlow EVERYTHING! Poor Jason, he still hasn’t found his brain.

Other things that happened in this episode . . . .

Sam, Emma and Luna escaped the news station/Authority as well, but Luna appeared too far gone. She begged Sam to take Emma and keep her safe. Luna then died . . . but did she? Part of me hopes not, but the actress was unfortunately listed as a guest star in the final credits. She was in previous seasons listed in the opening credits. I’m guessing she’s dead (I’ve been avoiding all spoilers in hopes that it will make this season more exciting). I feel bad for Sam, all his women die! Though I do know a spoiler about the final book and who he ends up with, but I won’t say that here . . . Sam ended up taking Emma back to Merlots to hide out.

The Governor of Louisiana has pretty much declared war on vampires, but at the same time struck a deal to bail out the Tru Blood manufacturers and relocate their headquarters to his state. Yeah from the previews, it seems he and Warlow are the two big-bads of the season.

Andy doesn’t know how to deal with his fairy kids, and Arlene and Terry refuse to raise these kids for him and told him to man up. However later the kids aged over night to about 4 or 5 years old, so I don’t think Andy has to worry about raising them! We didn’t see the whereabouts of his waitress Wiccan girlfriend . . . yet.

Finally Alcide has fully ascended to pack master and now has lots of hot naked babes throwing themselves at him. That’s pretty much all we got out of him this week.

I thought it was a good start for the season. I hope it stays as good as the premier. Last season was definitely the worst of all so far!
