True Blood: Trials and Tribulations

So the latest episode opened where last week left off, with Longshadow attempting to kill Sookie. Bill staked him, causing him to spew blood and explode all over poor Sookie! While he saved her, he killed a vampire, and that got him into trouble. He would have to go with Eric and be put on trial for what he did. Grrrrr! He asked Sam to look after Sookie while he was gone. I have to say, I loved that they had Bill playing golf on his Wii! That was hilarious.

Sam gave Tara 800 dollars to get her demon exorcised from her, but Tara didn’t want to take it. She eventually did. I loved that Sam did this for her. She keeps fighting him and the idea of a relationship, but she’s melting and he’s doing everything he can to not push her to far. So romantic! I also loved when he showed up with flowers and Tara’s mom was yelling he wanted sex. Too funny. I am actually interested to see how Tara’s exorcism goes, and what is so dangerous inside her that it costs 2x her mother’s exorcism. I keep thinking it’s basically the placebo effect, this has all been in their heads. What if it hasn’t? What if we are in for something shocking?

Jason and Amy kidnapped Lafayette’s vampire and chained him up in the basement. I actually am loathing this storyline, mainly because it’s clear that Amy is going to get Jason in a world of trouble. He’s so stuck in his V-induced hippy love fest with her to think straight. It’s obvious Jason is feeling guilty about what they’ve done, but he’s basically screwed himself. If he lets the vampire go, he and Amy could very well be dead. Heck if he doesn’t let him go, they are dead. Eric made it clear to the mortals they knew when a mortal had wronged one of them.

I also get this weird feeling that the vampire could turn Jason. He’s pretty lonely, and clearly he lusts after Jason. There is also this other side to him. He’s missing his son, who his wife took away when he came out of the closet. So he and Jason bonded over the fact that Jason also lost his dad at a young age. He could turn Jason in some weird “need to play daddy” role and make Jason his vampire son. I don’t know, I just think Jason’s in for it.

The show ended finally revealing the truth about Sam. Sookie went to stay at Bill’s, thinking it would be safe for her there and nobody wanting to harm her would dare go looking for her there. “The Dog” followed her home and she invited him in and to sleep on her bed, thinking she’d return him to Sam in the morning. “The Dog” looks just like the one Sam also has. However Sookie woke up in the middle of the night to see a nekkid Sam sleeping at the bottom of her bed! So yes, Sam is a shape-shifter of some kind!
