After a long season 5 of
craziness surrounding the Lilith storyline which I found to be less
intriguing compared to past seasons. The whole Lilith scenario is
beginning to pay off as Bill 2.0 has changed the rules and has made
it his mission to save vampires (especially Jessica) from the humans.
This week Bill is feeling
a lot more motivated and has teamed up with Jessica to capture a
professor that has the skill to synthesise Sookie’s faerie blood
for the vampires. Jessica was sent to attend a class and to seduce
the professor. Jessica turns up in a hot school girl-like outfit the
poor guy didn’t stand a chance. The next step was for Bill to
convince Sookie to help him by donating blood but despite their past.
A lot has changed and Sookie does not want to go with him. Plates are
thrown and Bill uses his new super powers but she still refuses. Then
Bill says “You are dead to me Sookie Stackhouse”. It looks like
Bill and Sookie will not be getting back together anytime soon.
As for Sookie’s own
storyline, she has been bonding with Jason and preparing for Warlow
to come for her. I have a strange feeling that Warlow may be closer
than we think and he is hovering in the bushes waiting at night. The
Faerie godfather chases after the vampire but loses him due to his
swift movement. The godfather wonders out to search for Warlow only
to find the damage the vamp has already caused including a massacre
of all the fareies at the secret nightclub (where they had been
hiding). Ben who came into the picture last week has crossed paths
with the godfather and agrees to help protect Sookie from Warlow to
thank her for her the kindness.
Eric has a change of plans
instead of killing the Governor’s daughter Willa (played by Amelia
Rose Blaire); he instead holds her as a hostage to gain all the
information he can around his enemy. Pam doesn’t think it’s the
best idea and would prefer to kill Willa. As Fangtasia is no longer
in Eric’s possession, the group (Pam, Eric and Tara) have to leave
and take any that holds value to them. Eric takes a little pause to
take a last look at his throne whilst I had my own nostalgic moment
of remembering the first time his character was introduced. They take
refuge in Ginger’s house to sleep during the day and Willa shares a
coffin with Eric. Although, for a girl who has just been taken by
vampires she seems to be a little too enthusiastic. Later the
Governor calls Eric and traces their whereabouts but Eric is smart
and leaves straight after.
The Wolves are struggling
to stay under the radar as more people are slowly becoming aware of
their existence. Not to mention, the police are on to them about
Emma’s disappearance. Alcide as a character is becoming far less
appealing due to his behaviour lately (helping kidnap Emma from Sam,
who supposedly was a friend). Alcide is supposed to be likeable! The
Vampire unity society has introduced us to the character Nicole
wright who is the co-founder of the society and wants to help all the
supernatural creatures basically live in peace with each other.
Nicole visits the Alcide’s wolf pack with other members of the
society to talk to them but when a camera is discovered recording,
all hell breaks loose. The wolves turn, attacking them and the only
one to escape is Nicole. That we know of anyway. While this is all
going on, Sam who was the owl watching over, transforms into his
human form and saves Emma from them.
On a sidenote, Andy
Bellefleur is struggling with parenthood as his four girls are
growing at a rapid rate over only a few days or so. Andy has turned
on the charm to help teach Holly some shooting so she can protect her
boys from the vampires at night. It must be a pretty messed up town
now that Andy has the most normal life at the moment.
Can’t
wait for next week, hopefully we finally get to see Warlow’s face
and the question on my mind is: Will Eric fulfil Willa’s vampire
fantasy that obviously she seems to have? It’s about time we see
some True Blood nudity
and maybe a couple that we can root for.
