True Blood: RIP Dude!

True Blood: RIP Dude!

Posted by Dustin on 07.07.2014 at 11:58 am

Last’s night’s “True Blood” brought both great happiness and great sorrow. I am just stunned, and wondering who else is going to meet the true death before this show ends?

Eric and Pam were reunited, and he was content to finally die and meet the true death. We saw some flashbacks of how Pam and Eric both met Nan Flannigan and presumably how Eric ended up in America as a sherif. We didn’t get that far yet. We also met some assassin squad from the Yoshimora corporation, which are the makers of Tru Blood. In the present Pam tried to get Eric to fight, that a cure might happen if they could keep him alive long enough. The only thing that made him want to fight was Pam revealing that Jason did not kill Sarah Newlander, she was alive. He was furious and wanted to find her. He isn’t the only one though. She’s been hiding out in some Yoga Cult, and the assassins from Yoshimora showed up looking for her! What do they want with her? Possibly something to do with the poisoning of the Tru Blood supply?

Andy, Jason, Jessica and Jason’s gal pal vamp all rescued Adeline and Arlene’s boy from jail, but then faced off with the hillbilly bunch whose taking back the town. Jason’s gal got tired of them, Hoyt’s mama in particular, and ended up ripping her heart out! I wish she had ripped her head off, but I’ll take what I can get. I was so glad to see her die!

Lettie Mae’s husband the Reverend basically sent Willow on her way, because Lettie Mae was becoming addicted to V. She wondered who would protect them? He said he would. That probably means they are as good as dead. We did get confirmation on Tara’s death too, as Pam mentioned she felt Tara meet the true death. So many deaths!

They are clearly setting up a love triangle involving Lafayette, his vampire protector James, and James’ girlfriend Jessica. I think it’s also just a way to eventually bring Hoyt back for Jessica. With his mama dead he will likely come home. Has he gotten his memory back? Maybe it’s best he doesn’t, he and Jessica could then start over.

Finally Sookie came up with the plan to find the Hep-V vamps by using herself as bait and having them take her back to their lair, where Bill would track her too. However her plan didn’t go as planned. The Hep-V vamps took Holly with them when they went hunting, found Sookie and Bill and overpowered them. Then Sam and Alcide showed up. There was a shootout that left most of the Hep-V vamps dead, but also Alcide! Nooooooooooooo! I just can’t believe they killed him off. With Eric dying and Alcide dead, it really looks like Sookie will end up with Bill, unless they go with the actual ending from the books.

Rest in Piece Alcide, your naked body will be missed. Rot in pieces Hoyt’s mama, you won’t be missed!

  1. I was pleased with last night’s episode up until Alcide being killed. There was a lot of yelling at the TV kinda late at night. Still unhappy and wondering if I even want to soldier on (I will, but I’m sore).

  2. I also figure the writers are setting it all up so Sookie will end up with Bill – she admitted she didn’t love Alcide enough, and last week she was reminiscing about dating Bill.

    I didn’t even think about Hoyt coming back. Could happen, I guess. I thought that maybe Jason’s vamp (Violet?) was going to die and he and Jessica would get back together, maybe adopt some kids whose parents have died (maybe Sam’s daughter?) since Jason now wants kids. Just as long as some were-panther babies don’t show up…

    I thought the back-story about Sylvie seemed forced. And having LaFayette sit around high was rather dull. I liked James last season but this season – meh. Give him something to do too. I just didn’t buy that he and Jessica were an item.

  3. I’m still hoping that Eric comes back, Sookie is his cure and they live happily ever after. I wasn’t a fan of how the books ended so I’m hoping they don’t go there. And I will be really mad if they put her back with Bill after his story line.

  4. Hated that Alcide was killed off! I was thinking the writers are planning on getting Jason and Jess back together, but I do like the idea of Hoyt and Jess as a couple again.
    Now that Pam confirmed that Tara met the true death, I think Lettie May is the one that killed Tara. It explains why her death wasn’t shown.
