But, I guarantee you'll see the world with new eyes.
Lafayette gets Jason hooked on V, giving him a smaller dose this time which overwhelms his senses. Bill participates in a function where he addresses the locals in a townhall setting, where he successfully endears himself to most in attendance speaking on the Civil War and past memories from that time, with a desire for vampires and humans to embrace in a hopeful hospitality instead of the visible angst and hostility quite present in contemporary society. Jason is tole by Lafayette that Tara has been in love with him since they were children. Jason, under the influence of the V "juice", tells Tara that he'd like for them to be an item, but she doesn't quite allow herself to be totally convinced he's serious..later finding that Jason is still the same old sex junkie he's always been. Sam asks Sookie out on a date, her accepting to his surprise. It's evident that Sookie, even though her experience at the vampire bar wasn't exactly worthwhile(not to mention Bill's reaction to a cop who pulled him over clearly because of his being a vampire), is still head-over-heels for Bill, and Sam tries, for naught, to win her heart, to no avail. This True Blood episode is ultimately the sad end to Grandmother Adele's character, Sookie returning from the disappointing date with Sam, finding her dead, lying in a pool of blood after being attacked by what appears to be a vampire. Quite clear, as the series continues, is that it seems every time an effort is made by Bill for the peaceful coexistence of vampires and humans, one of his own disrupts this dream. And, the gap will probably widen between Sookie and Bill because one of his kind killed her beloved grandmother. Now Sookie will not have that shoulder to lean on, that voice of calm to guide her along the rough path of life she so desperately needs, particularly now when men show their attentions towards her. We also see how Bill was turned into a vampire, unfortunately by a female vamp he thought was offering him food and comfort out of kindness, when in fact she had been feeding from deserters of the Civil War and soldiers, seeing their savagery and capitalizing on it as a blood source. We also discover that vampires can cast a shadow and aren't harmed by crucifixes. This I believe is the episode which, because it's so well written and the characters are becoming so well defined, establishes how great the series can be. Preverse humor and quirky characterizations are quite attractive to me. I especially love the scene where Lafayette responds to homophobic comments regarding her hamburger having AIDS by smacking around the rednecks in front of the patrons attending the bar/diner.
