What the hell just happened?

We saw her.

We saw Lilith.

You saw her. You were there.

And so was Godric. And it sickened him.

The Godric you say you saw last night was a perversion.

Lilith will show you the way.

There may be a way we can find out who k*lled your parents.

First I was Mama,

then I was the vampire.

You saw Claudine?

Warlow, leave the girl alone!

Does Warlow mean anything to you?

No.

You are mine!

Whoa.

She here. She'll lift the curse if ...

Terry, baby, you got to k*ll Patrick.

Or either he got to k*ll you.

One of us has got to die.

This vamper friend of mine, we drink his blood and he knows he can trust us.

You're a drug addict and you're a disgrace to all wolves.

JD, don't! You have won.

Find yourself a new pack.

I was in my room, and the next thing I know I'm you.

You'll be okay.

No, I won't.

I'm gonna die, Sam.

Luna?

We got a surprise for you, Hoyt.

Now, you need to do this, brother.

You did it?

I'll send help. A friendly face.

It's time to start crushing the mainstreamers.

Tru Blood. You b*mb the factories.

There are only five of them.

And you force mainstreamers to feed on humans.

As they were meant to.

Well done.

What are you doing?

Evolving.

We're looking

at a Tru Blood factory

outside Houston, Texas,

where an expl*si*n occurred

about an hour ago.

The cause is still

undetermined,

but early reports indicate

that there have been

at least six

human casualties.

The Houston plant is the largest

Tru Blood factory in the world,

producing more than a quarter

of the world's supply

of the synthetic

blood beverage

that vampires

need to survive.

It's begun.

Praise Lilith.

In celebration

of her holy w*r,

let us feast in Lilith's name.

Should we say Grace?

Northman?

Well, prayer is a fairly new concept to me.

Perhaps someone with a little more experience should do it.

It would be my honor.

Here's a tried and true one from my human days.

There once was a cock and a hen who gave lunch to a goose in a pen.

"Good Lord,"

said the goose,

"bless this food for our use and us to Thy service."

Amen.

Charming.

Chelsea, Chancellor Agrippa must have forgot to clear me.

Is there any way you can ...

Level one protocols. Sorry, hon.

Gotcha.

Oh, please.

I'm a thousand years older than you.

Put the baby fangs away before you piss me off.

Is there somewhere safe we can talk?

Be safe in here if you let me go.

We got 30 seconds before we're live again.

Please tell me you have a plan to get us outta here.

Uh, you were it.

Well, that's great.

Level one protocols.

I only have level three clearance, genius.

The lockdown system is DNA specific.

I don't speak techie.

Translate.

We're totally f*cking f*cked.

Unless...

Unless what?

It's probably a really stupid idea and it'll probably get you k*lled.

Sounds perfect.

You see anything?

Yep.

One fine-ass m*therf*cker with pretty new eyelashes.

Lafayette, seriously.

There was a creepy spirit thingy in this bathroom.

Now, are you gonna help me find out what it was or are you just gonna stare at your vain-ass self all night?

Okay.

Creepy spirit thingy, why you in Sookie bathroom?

Hello?

I'm sorry, Sook.

I ain't got no g*dd*mn clue how this sh*t work.

I ain't Whoopi Goldberg in "Ghost,"

although I am way prettier.

Well, thanks for trying.

I'm still gonna charge your ass 100 bucks.

Put it on my tab.

So, other than getting possessed by a Mexican demon, how've you been?

You heard from Tara?

I texted her about 50 times, and this all she wrote ...

"Bitch, stop texting me or I will eat you."

Sounds like she's doing better.

She ain't been pissed at me this long since I stole her boyfriend in eighth grade.

Well, she'll get over it someday.

Or she won't.

At least she's alive.

Sort of.

What?

I said at least she's alive.

Not you. Shh.

Y'all need to simmer the f*ck down, sh*t!

I can only listen to one of y'all at a g*dd*mn time, f*ck.

Oh, excuse my language, Mrs. Stackhouse.

Gran? Gran's here?

It's ...

Yes, ma'am, I will tell her.

The rest of y'all, I ain't Gmail for dead b*tches.

Send your own g*dd*mn messages, hell.

Your gran says she is glad those striptease fairies is looking after you.

Did she say anything else?

Like who Warlow is or what that thing was in my bathroom?

Shh, shh.

Sleep on it.

You sleep on it?

You're sleeping on top of it.

You're sleeping on top of it.

For, like, the hundredth time, Hoyt is not an Obama.

The only reason any of this happened is because he still loves me.

He joined a hate group.

He tried to kidnap you, pointed a g*n at you.

Oh, yeah, that's real romantic.

Yeah, well, at least he didn't sh**t me in the head.

Thanks for showing up, Officer Stackhouse.

Well, I came as soon as I heard.

Hoyt's an Obama?

No!

Oh, he's a regular Prince Charming.

Ran off to save his own ass.

It was daylight, all right? He went to go get help.

Jason, they must have done something to him.

Hoyt's had your blood, right?

So if he's in danger, you'd feel it, right?

I did, all right?

But then he just went blank, and I can't ...

I can't feel him at all anymore.

I did this to him, okay?

And if anything happens to him, it's 'cause of me.

Here.

I don't think it's gonna happen again.

You sure?

No.

But I stopped getting pins and needles all over my body, so that's a good thing, right?

I'm ... I'm taking you back to the hospital.

My brother d*ed from skinwalking.

Your brother was beaten to death.

And they just dug a b*llet out of you.

So stop making me waste my energy by arguing.

I'm not going back to the hospital.

Okay.

Okay, then you're staying here and I'm getting somebody to take care of you.

While you're out chasing the Obamas?

You know, in case you hadn't noticed, the Renard Parish Sheriff's Department aren't exactly CSI.

They need me.

Uh-huh.

And in case you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly fragile.

Those cocksuckers sh*t us and they tried to sh**t my daughter.

So if you think I'm just gonna lie here in bed like "The Princess and the Pea"...

Luna ...then you're dead wrong.

I'm coming with you. You can't stop me.

You're really f*cking annoying, you know that?

And you're old-fashioned and surprisingly sexist.

Trying to protect somebody I love ... that's sexist?

I love you, too.

Good.

Still coming with you.

God damn it!

Well, last ghost lady Lafayette channeled tried to steal our baby.

Why should we trust this one?

Because I sh*t her in the head.

Well, so what?

That was a long time ago and it wasn't your fault.

And you're very sorry. He is very sorry.

Please, please, don't make him do this.

Honey, you're gonna wake up the kids.

What ... what are you doing?

Me and Patrick, we saved each other's lives.

He's a good man.

Oh, is that why he ran out of here like a scalded dog?

Looked to me like all he was thinking about was saving his own hide.

Survival brings out the ugly in all of us.

I'm gonna offer him

a fair fight.

It's the least he deserves.

What about us?

What about Mikey, okay?

What about what we deserve?

Baby, if it wasn't for you...

You're the only reason I'm fighting at all.

Terry.

Terry.

The fire is still raging

at the Tru Blood factory

outside Houston, Texas.

Meanwhile, panicked vampires

across the country

rush to stockpile

the beverage.

And many human citizens

are already asking the question:

what will happen to them...

...when the artificial blood

runs out?

What are you doing?

We should have enough Tru Blood to last us a couple of weeks if we stop serving it now.

We're not going to stop serving it.

You've seen the news, right?

Factories burning, vampires panicking.

Which is exactly why we need to keep serving the blood ...

so our vampire customers don't eat our human customers and put us out of business.

What happens when we run out?

We do what every sane vampire in this country is gonna do ...

pretend to still be drinking the sh*t like good little mainstreamers, and in private we discreetly feed on humans.

It's gonna be a bloodbath out there.

Whoever blew up

that factory,

that's what they want, isn't it?

There are two things I try to stay away from:

humans who eat a lot of fish and politics.

So whatever comes next, we keep our heads down, our tits up, and the Tru Blood flowing.

Understand?

Hey, I may be,

like, a week old,

but I'm not an idiot.

You're worried about Eric.

If you need someone

to talk to ...

Just because we drank a bitch together does not make us Oprah and Gayle.

Get the f*ck back to work.

Suck me, vampire Barbie.

"Hey, I have a great idea.

Why don't we blow up all the Tru Blood factories and start a civil w*r?

Wouldn't that be fun?

Praise Lilith."

I don't know what kind of game you're playing, Bill, but ...

It's not a game.

Shut up.

There aren't any cameras in here.

You're laying it on a little thick, don't you think?

Salome and Russell are thousands of years old.

And Nora may be young, but she's a political genius.

That's why Godric chose her.

If you think they're gonna buy this act much longer, you're as crazy as they are.

What if they're not crazy?

What if God is a vampire?

I saw Lilith. We both did.

And we were high.

I don't know what's in that blood, but we need to stay away from it.

I'm lost.

I don't know who to trust.

Everything I believed in has been turned upside down.

What about Sookie?

She just food to you now?

I didn't think so.

You're more of a mainstreamer than I'll ever be.

And whatever religious crisis you think you're having, you can have it somewhere else.

We're getting the hell out of here.

Now, the compound's on lockdown.

There's only one way out.

The chancellor's blood.

You want me to steal Salome's blood?

What about your sister?

I'll handle Nora.

It's our only sh*t.

Tomorrow before dawn.

No! No!

Hmm, we'd better get back to slaughtering people in the name of God.

No, no!

No! No!

Gran's photo albums, my parents' baby pictures, their obituaries ... I ... I don't understand.

I've been through this stuff a zillion times.

What am I supposed to be looking for?

sh*t knows, Nancy Drew.

What is this?

Jason's report card.

It's the only B he ever got.

Gran knitted a frame for it.

What are you trying to show me, Gran?

What am I not seeing?

Lynn Dearborne was Jason's sixth grade teacher?

Sheriff Dearborne's wife?

Uh-huh.

Jason was her favorite.

It didn't matter how many tests he flunked or cheated his way through, he was every female teacher's pet.

The boy could charm the skirt off a post.

Used to drive me nuts.

"The bodies of Michelle and Corbett Stackhouse were discovered by Deputy Bud Dearborne of the Renard Parish Sheriff's Department."

Bud Dearborne found my parents' bodies?

How come I didn't know that?

He was there.

Maybe this is what Gran's trying to tell me ...

that Bud Dearborne knows something.

She could have just said so.

Dead folk, why y'all gotta be so cryptic?

It ain't cute.

Hey, don't let her out of your sight.

I don't care if she's sleeping or taking a dump.

Jason, I don't take dumps.

And I'm gonna be fine. Don't worry about me.

Only worry about Hoyt. I still can't feel him.

It's like there's nothing, just emptiness.

And, God, it's like he's asleep or ...

Don't even say it.

I wish I could stay and help.

Well, being a vampire's got its perks ...

the no dumping and all ... but getting deep-fried when the sun comes up sure evens the playing field.

Mm.

Look, I got this covered.

It's what I'm trained for. Hoyt's gonna be fine.

Promise me.

Promise.

Okay.

Joe Bob visited this same website

"The Human Patriot Manifesto, Part 1. Vampires and other covert mutants are stealing our jobs, buying our politicians, controlling the media, and seducing our children.

If we have any chance

of keeping America human,

brave citizens like us have got to stand up and fight back."

Yeah, if they're so brave, then why the Obama masks, hmm?

'Cause it's like patriotic

or ironic or something.

Maybe it's 'cause they don't wanna get recognized.

God help us.

Amen.

Stackhouse.

Yeah.

Check this out.

f*ck me.

Making soups outta supes!

Obamas aren't just sh**ting shifters.

They're strapping vampires in the sun, melting 'em like marshmallows.

Death to supes!

Long live the Dragon.

Long live the Dragon.

Aw, sh*t me.

There are dragons now, too.

Not those kind of dragons.

That's what they s ...

Back in the day, old Cleetus Bodehouse used to be a Grand Dragon for the Ku Klux Klan.

The masks, the cross ...

sick sons of b*tches are modeling themselves after the Klan.

Didn't Cleetus Bodehouse drown in his own bathtub like 20 years ago?

So who's the Dragon?

We find the Dragon, we find Hoyt.

Who the f*ck's the Dragon?

And what's he done with Hoyt?

f*ck you. I ain't telling you sh*t.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey, easy, Stackhouse!

f*ck you, man!

Get off him!

Come on, man, easy.

Get up!

Easy.

Dude, we all wanted to be you in high school ...

QB-1, drowning in cooch.

You were the man.

Now look at you ... Bellefleur's bitch boy, screwing over your best friend for some cold, dead p*ssy.

You're such a f*ckin' loser.

Shut up, you dumb f*ck!

Yeah! Yeah!

Vampers may be stronger and faster, shifters may be smarter, more adaptable, but wolves have something none of them do.

You know what that is, Alcide?

A pack, sir.

A pack.

That's how wolves have survived for thousands of years ...

by putting the needs, traditions, and survival of our pack before our own.

But we aren't just wolves, are we?

We're men, too.

And women, Debbie.

Inside each of us

is both man and beast.

The man is selfish.

He wants the best piece of meat, the biggest house, the prettiest girl all to himself.

That's how humans are built.

But the wolf, the beast, he's connected to something greater.

He feels his brothers and sisters in his blood.

He carries them with him wherever he goes.

He knows our strengths and our unity.

Today you're given the choice...

the choice all weres make when they come of age.

Who will be your guide?

Man or beast? Human or wolf?

Will you carry the hopes, dreams, and survival of our pack on your shoulders

or will you walk alone?

The choice is yours.

Ginger ale for you, Sookie.

Thanks, Sheriff ... Mr. Dearborne.

How's retirement treating you?

Fantastic. Colon cancer's in remission.

Had the last of the tumors cut out a month ago.

I'm glad to hear that.

Anyway, about my parents, I know you were the one who found them.

Was there anything suspicious to you?

Were there any marks on them?

Bites?

If you're asking if it could have been a vamper ...

I hate to say it, but the answer is yes.

Of course, we didn't know

about them at the time,

so we assumed that gators must've gotten to the bodies.

I'm sorry.

I know you had a real special relationship with vamps.

But gotta be hard knowing they k*lled your grandmother and now maybe even your parents, too.

René Lenier or Drew Marshall or whatever his name was k*lled my gran, not a vampire.

Well, depends how you look at it, right?

I mean, she was k*lled

'cause you associated with vampires.

So, in a way, they might as well have been the ones who k*lled her.

You see what I mean?

No, I don't think I do.

She's probably reading

your mind right now.

She's onto you.

Knows what you're hiding.

Gonna ruin it.

Just drink

the damn ginger ale.

Oh!

Oh, sh**t!

I am so sorry.

Here, let me help you with that.

It's okay.

What are you doing?

Does the name Warlow mean anything to you?

Do you know who k*lled my parents?

Sookie, I got no idea what you're talking about.

Let go of me, young lady.

Who the hell's Warlow?

I've already told her

vampers k*lled her parents.

What's she want from me?

I'm sorry. I made a mistake.

Yeah, you sure did.

Well, don't just stand there gawking, Bud.

Grab her damn feet.

Yes, Sweetie.

Sheriff Bellefleur, is it true that Barack Obama is actually behind the recent unsolved sh**t and the kidnapping of a local vampire?

No. The President of the United States is not actually in Renard Parish sh**ting and kidnapping people.

We believe there is a hate group who are disguising themselves wearing Obama masks.

This hate group, they kidnapped a vampire,

but they've also been linked

to a double homicide in Monroe

and a sh**ting outside Shreveport.

Those victims were human, so what's the connection?

Uh, sorry, I ... I can't comment on that at this time.

Excuse me.

Sheriff. Sheriff!

Sheriff Bellefleur.

Andy.

Hey, Andy, we went back to that basement, picked up the scent of at least five or six people and something else, too.

Pigs.

Pigs?

More specifically, pig sh*t.

Tracked all over the place. Must have been on their shoes.

Okay, well, thanks for the tip.

Now I suggest y'all lie low until we bring them in.

Hey, listen, I saved your life.

I'm in this.

That was before you turned into you.

In case you haven't noticed, this place is crawling with reporters.

So unless you want me to go on camera and tell them you turn into a dog and she turns into you, y'all better get outta here.

Andy, don't be an assh*le.

Go home, Merlotte.

If he doesn't wanna help us, f*ck him.

Come here.

Okay, what are we doing?

You ever been a fly on a wall?

You scream again, I will sh**t.

You understand?
Keys.

Terry said he was gonna settle things with you ...

I said give me your keys now.

Go on. Go on.

Please, please. My kids.

Look, you do exactly what I say, I'll let you get home to 'em.

I promise.

Now who else is working?

Uh ... uh, Sam is taking the day off.

Holly's babysitting.

Lafayette's supposed to be cooking, but he's always late.

All right, all right, you call him, you tell him not to come in.

Merlotte's is closed for the day.

Okay.

Okay.

Oh, God.

Come on!

sh*t. I'm sorry.

Lafayette, it's Arlene.

Yep, you're late again.

But guess what, Sam's shut ... shutting down for the day.

No, nothing's wrong.

I think he's just...

taking care of that leak in the men's room finally.

Well, you know what they say ...

don't look a gift horse in the mouth, right?

Uh, but you have a good day. Yeah, okay, I will.

Hoyt?

Hoyt, wake up.

I feel so good and happy.

I never thought heaven

would smell like this,

but it sure is pretty.

Oh, Hoyt, you're high as a kite.

What did they give you?

Here, piggy, piggy, piggy.

Hungry pigs?

Well, look who's awake.

We got two Obamas so far ...

Junior and Joe Bob.

These guys are Bon Temps born and bred.

What else they got in common?

Both got dumb-ass white-trash names starting with J, played football for BT High.

Sheriff Dearborne arrested both of them.

Joe Bob 'cause folks said he's one of them boys torched that vampire house in Monroe.

We could never prove anything.

The American Vampire League was crawling up our ass, so Bud dragged him in, held him overnight, let him go.

What about Junior?

Public drunkenness, all it says.

A town like this, everybody spends a night or two in the slammer.

I don't see much of a connection there.

Whoever this Dragon is, it's somebody they're scared of.

I mean, we kicked the bejesus out of Joe Bob ...

Stackhouse!

I mean, uh, Joe Bob fell off his bunk real hard, and he still wouldn't turn on the Dragon.

If this Dragon's done anything to Hoyt, I ain't never gonna forgive myself for a long, long time.

That boy wouldn't be wearing makeup in Fangtasia or joining hate groups or any of this sh*t if I hadn't have slept with Jess.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

We all fall short somewhere.

You use your d*ck for a compass.

Me, I'm just a bad cop.

Andy.

I'm the worst sheriff this town's ever had.

Everybody knows it.

We assaulted a prisoner today.

Now, Joe Bob's a son of a bitch, but it is my job to protect son of a b*tches, too, and vampers and shifters, werechickens and whatever the f*ck else is out there!

The world's going to hell in a hand bucket.

Maybe I oughta do like Bud ...

walk out of here, retire, cheat on my wife, square-dance.

Holy...

Long live the Dragon!

Whoo!

His boots.

Look at his boots.

Since you hung up

your hat for good,

it's time you put on your new dancing shoes.

Thank you. They're beautiful.

Bud's the Dragon.

Bud's the Dragon.

Bud's the g*dd*mn Dragon.

Sorry about this.

With your mind-reading

and all,

we couldn't risk you telling somebody on us.

Mr. Dearborne, I don't know what you're talking about.

The supes are trying

to take over the whole world.

Crafty suckers have been at it a long, long time.

I got a stack of unsolved cases dating back over 40 years ...

innocent people like your folks m*rder*d by vamps and who knows what else.

Somebody's gotta put an end to it.

How?

sh**ting good people like Sam Merlotte who've never done anything but help this town?

Merlotte ain't helping this town.

He's buying it.

Bars, apartment buildings.

Just a matter of time

before he starts in

on churches and schools.

Then he can convert all the innocent children to his perverted shifter ways.

World w*r IV ain't gonna be fought

over land or oil

in no foreign country,

it's gonna be fought right here for our humanity.

Excuse me, who are you?

Sweetie Des Arts. Nice to meet you, freak.

You don't look like a Sweetie.

Bud, maybe Sookie'd like some of that ginger ale now.

I ... I don't think she's part of the conspiracy.

I known her her whole life.

Well, then, you know better than I do ...

she sure as sh*t ain't human.

She's a mind-reader with electric fingers and a fetish for fangers!

If that ain't a supe, I don't know what the hell is.

You can't let your emotions cloud your vision, baby.

They may look like us and talk like us, but they are not like us.

What about Hoyt? He's about as human as they come.

We gave him a chance to be a hero for humanity and he pussied out.

He loves mutants so much, he might as well die with them.

Bud, you were the sheriff of this town.

You're supposed to protect people.

And that's what I'm doing ... protecting people.

The law don't protect people.

You tell her, Bud.

The law gives

monsters equal rights

and sends patriots like my cousin Joe Bob to jail for sticking up for his own kind.

All the law ever gave me

was cancer in my ass and a sexless marriage.

That's right, baby.

When the supernatural w*r's over and the smoke clears, we're gonna write us a new law, one that makes sense for humans.

Supes will be aborted or sh*t on sight, and all of humanity'll know the sacrifices that we made in the name of America.

There are gonna be flags with our faces on 'em.

What happened to you?

Something awful must've happened to you to fill you with so much crazy hate.

Husband left me

for that shifter bitch

liked to turn herself

into a damn raccoon.

What's that supposed to do

for my self-esteem?

You get outta my head, you freak show!

Give her the f*ckin'

ginger ale already or I'll do it my damn self.

Come on, now. It's just got some OxyContin left over from my colon surgery in it.

Bud, you don't wanna do this.

That woman is out of her mind.

Watch your mouth.

This woman is the Dragon of Renard Parish, the Square-Dancing Champion of Louisiana, and the love of my life.

Is there a point to this, Stackhouse?

Her family owned a pig farm out on the way to Kickapoo.

Pig sh*t.

She's my wife.

Stop. Stop right there.

Now, I have a family, too.

Maggie's pregnant and I promised her I'd come home.

I don't wanna do this sh*t. You know I don't.

But there's no other way to end it.

A fair fight. Let the best man win.

You're stronger than I am.

You're a better soldier, a better man.

But it's you or me.

That's what it's come down to.

And it ain't gonna be me. Now get on your knees.

No.

God damn it, Bellefleur, get on your knees.

No!

Get outta here.

I'm ... I'm sorry.

Ah!

God damn it!

Ah, ah.

Don't move, m*therf*cker, or I will blow your f*cking brains out.

Must be peaceful to be so sure of something.

No room for doubt or remorse.

Faith isn't magic. Anyone can do it.

Mm, but it requires surrendering.

I've never been a big fan of that.

Still such a f*cking Viking, even after all these years.

Always.

But you ... you've changed.

You're not the power-hungry

bitch I used to love.

All I cared about was rising up the ranks of the Authority and making my mark, sitting in Roman's chair someday.

I had no idea what true power was.

How ... how did you find God?

Salome.

She snuck me in here during the day whilst Roman was in ground.

She let me taste the blood.

And it blew my f*cking mind, Eric.

My ambitions seemed trivial,

and everything

I had once cared about

seemed insignificant in the face of such divinity.

And I felt this overwhelming sense of purpose and belonging.

Well, I wish it were that simple for me.

It can be.

No.

It can be.

Believing in something other than yourself doesn't make you weak, Eric.

Even the tallest tree knows its existence depends on the soil beneath its roots and the sun and the rain upon its branches.

That's what Lilith is to us.

I don't wanna fight you.

I want to believe.

Will you help me?

Yes.

Yeah.

Thousands of years, Salome has meant nothing

but a naked girl

with a man's head in her lap.

Now I will be linked to Lilith forever.

That will be my true legacy.

So few have the chance to shape history.

Not once, but twice.

It's not an accident.

I've been chosen and so have you.

Lilith has chosen you as my Adam.

We will birth a new world together.

What if I don't want to be chosen?

Her blood is inside you.

Let it be your guide.

Bill.

No.

Why don't we just

sh**t 'em?

'Cause we're making a political statement, ass-for-brains.

The world's gone to the pigs

'cause of the supes, so we're feeding the supes to the pigs.

Get it?

This is going on the website, baby, so put on your mask.

Right.

God bless America!

Bring in the pigs!

Here, piggy, piggy, piggy.

All right, toss her in there.

Give those porkies something to chew on.

I got you.

Sam.

Jesus, help me! Keep it away from me!

Stay outta my pig, dirty shifter!

Stay close. Keep your eye

on the perimeter.

Sheriff's Department! Freeze!

Get down on your f*ckin' knees!

Drop the w*apon, Bud. It's over.

Humans rule!

Jason.

Sook.

Oh, my God.

Hey. Hey.

The hell are you doing here?

Hoyt.

Hoyt. Buddy!

That's for sh**ting me.

That's for my boyfriend.

And this is for my daughter, you human trash!

Sookie.

You okay?

Hi.

Hi.

Were you a pig or did I dream that?

Come on, Hoyt.

Come on, buddy. It's J. I'm right here, man.

Stay with me, man.

Stay with me, bubba.

Stay with me, man.

I think she hit an artery.

If you're not gonna sh**t me, I need to get to a hospital.

Do it, Terry. sh**t him.

She's a fighter.

That's good.

If you care about something, you gotta fight for it.

I'm not just fighting for my life.

Don't listen to him, Terry. He is messing with your head.

He would've sh*t you

on your knees.

Maggie's due in December.

It's a Christmas baby, a little boy like Mikey.

Shut up!

Do it.

You sh**t him in the head right now for your family.

That's how this whole thing got started, remember?

You taking orders.

Dead check her.

Do it.

sh**t him. sh**t him, Terry.

You gotta do what your conscience tells you this time.

Do what's right.

Can I get some

Tru Blood, please?

Where the f*ck's my Tru Blood?

Excuse me.

Good, now I've got your attention.

Number one:

there's no feeding on humans in Fangtasia.

Number f*ckin' two:

get out of my maker's throne before I stake you all over it.

Monarchs have lifted the ban on public feeding.

And Northman is history.

The Authority has named me the new Sheriff of Area 5.

Everybody, grab a human. Drinks are on me!

No!

Is Hoyt gonna be okay?

He had a pulse, but it was real weak.

Jason'll call us from the hospital if there's any news.

What about you?

You sure you don't want to at least go get checked out?

I'll be fine as soon as I wash the pig out of my hair.

All right, get in. I'll drive you home.

Thanks.

Hey, Andy.

Hey.

Listen, I just wanted to say ...

It's all good.

You saved my life. I saved yours back.

No, I was gonna say you're not the worst sheriff this town ever had.

Bud Dearborne had you b*at by a mile.

Thanks, Sam.

Night.

Let's go get Emma.

Yeah.

I first started collecting werewolves in Scandinavia almost 2,000 years ago.

My first was a lovely werebitch named Gisla.

Oh.

Whitest pelt, greenest eyes, loyal like you wouldn't believe, even before I gave her my blood.

But after ... oh, oh, oh!

She'd rip apart anything that looked at me sideways.

You think dogs are good pets, wait till you try a werewolf on V.

I've never had a pet.

My father was allergic to everything except God.

You forget that bloodbag.

Stick with me, darlin'.

I'll give you the world.

I hear a celebration is in order.

We have a new Packmaster.

To J.D., Packmaster of Shreveport.

Ooh, yeah.

Ooh.

Yeah.

Oh, okay. All right, all right.

Okay. Yes.

What's your name, werebitch?

And who is that adorable little puppy?

So cute.

Name's Martha.

This is my granddaughter.

Come, Martha.

Join your pack.

I chose my pack, and I swore I'd die for it, but I will never drink from you, fanger.

Hmm.

The smarter the creature, the more discipline it needs.

No! You let go of her.

You let her go!

For you, my darlin'.

Emma!

Your first pet.

J.D., please. Not my grandbaby.

Stop him, please.

Mr. Edgington...

see, Emma, she's a member of this pack, so I can't let you do that.

Did you think my blood was free?

You silly, silly dog.

Shall we?

Oh, Russell, she's adorable.

Emma!

No!

Dad.

Beer in the fridge.

Grab me one while you're in there.

How much you got on this?

100.

Four, five.

So your whole disability check.

Nice.

It's a long drive to come out here and give me another lecture.

It's not why I came.

I lost Packmaster.

I've been abjured.

So you're a lone wolf now.

Just like your old man.

I'm nothing like you.

Sure, you're not.

Two more explosions

at Tru Blood factories

in Japan and Kuwait.

Steve Newlin of the American

Vampire League

has called the att*cks

"a vicious act of terrorism"

against all God-fearing,

peace-loving vampire citizens

of the world.

Oh, bollocks.

Claude? Claudette?

I'm sorry, I don't know you.

Oh, Claudija.

Well, it's nice to meet you, but what are y'all doing in my living room in the middle of the night?

We brought you some soup, Sookie.

Move over.

Don't believe a word of it.

Vampires are behind it all.

Why?

They're taking over the world.

Us together again on the same side.

That's what Godric would have wanted.

You're right.

Where are you taking me?

Home.

Eric, no.

We gotta move fast. She won't be out long.

Where's Bill?

We can't wait for him.

You had me worried there for a minute.

Ready to get the hell outta here?

Access granted.

You f*ckin' traitor.

I'm doing this for you.

You've been chosen by Lilith.
