True Blood: What The Hell Are They Doing?
There are now only two episodes left of “True Blood,” I believe. After last night’s episode, I do not have high hopes at all for a happy ending. What the hell is this show doing to itself? Let’s discuss.
Thankfully they did not drag Violet’s revenge on for long. Jason arrived and she chained him up with the others in a sick plan to make each one watch the one before them be tortured to death. However Hoyt followed Jason and shot Violet through the heart. Hoyt met Jessica and was completely enamored with her. He grilled Jason if he and Jessica were . . . Jason said no. Jason and Jessica agreed they were best as friends only. Later in the episode he showed up to pay Jessica a visit and bring Bill some clean blood. Something that struck me was Jason thanked Hoyt for saving them and called him Bubba, his nickname for Hoyt, and Hoyt said nothing about this. I am wondering if Hoyt remembers, but is lying to see if Jason and Jessica are still carrying on? Or does he truly not know? Either way, it looks like Jessica and Hoyt are going to get another chance. At least one couple is going to get a happy ending!
Eric was healed thanks to Newmie, who Gus tied up in the basement of Fangtasia. The cure was easy enough to synthesize, but Gus says that won’t make them money. He wants to make a Nu Blood that is only a partial cure, because it will keep people buying it. Eric and Pam agreed to keep quiet about the full cure, they are business people after all. However Eric soon learned from Sookie that Bill was sick and he wanted to find a way to cure Bill. Of course Sookie being Sookie took matters into her own hands. She brought Bill too Fangtasia to get the cure herself. However Bill decided at the last second that he wouldn’t be cured! He had a dream of a life with Sookie. In it Sookie was holding a baby who had a black void where its face should be. In the previews he tells Eric that all they can bring Sookie is a life of death. I swear if they end up killing Bill and screwing Sookie out of any kind of happy ending, I will be pissed. Then again that’s somewhat how Alan Ball ended “Six Feet Under,” which I absolutely hated.
Finally Tara’s story came to an end. I wasn’t too happy with this story either. Lettie Mae and Lafayette were digging up the yard of Tara and her mom’s old house looking for something. The reverend soon showed up and he agreed to take V with them, thinking he would help disprove them. He was stunned when he too saw Tara. Basically as a kid Tara almost shot her father abusive with his gun, which she stole. She didn’t though, she chickened out and buried it in the back yard. Her father left her mother that same day, which is what began her spiral into decent. Tara felt she had to show this, and the gun, to her mother to help ease her guilt. Tara couldn’t pass on until Lettie Mae let go of her and her guilt. Tara, in a way, absolved her mother of some of that. We then saw Tara go into the light. I really thought this was a piss poor end to Tara’s character honestly.
Please “True Blood,” don’t eft up the ending to your show!
