Season Seven Epi Eight Almost Home

The Episode begins with Sarah Newlin coming out of her hiding place and trying to bait Eric into killing her. She is under the delusion that she is the messiah and only her death will help her transcend from her human self to the "Princess of Peace". Whatever. The good news is that Eric didn't kill her and he drank some of her blood and was healed.

We find Bill and Sookie together relaxed in a post coital state and Sookie asked Bill what it was Sophie Anne had planned for her. Basically Sophie Anne wanted to breed her with other fae as she knew Mab was gathering up the fae and closing the portals.

Jessica is caught by Violet and she sends Jason some rather nasty pictures of Adilyn and Jessica all tied up and he interrupts a rather nasty domestic between Hoyt and Brigette who is talking about having children with Hoyt but he doesn't want children with her. Jason goes after Violet to save Adilyn and Jessica and gets tied to a bondage cross while Violet describes what she is going to do with them all. Which is nasty in my book. Hoyt does save the day though and shoots Violet with a wooden bullet and without him knowing it, he kills his mom's killer. He finds himself mysteriously drawn to Jessica though he doesn't know why.

Lettie Mae and Lafayette are still digging around in the yard of the old home place and they decided they need to go on another V trip. Rev. Daniels goes with them this time and they see Tara and she takes them to the past to one of Tara's birthdays (Remember how she said she hated her birthday in Season Two?) Well, the reason is that her daddy was a drunk and he denied even the smallest pleasure to his family so he could drink and he walks in on the birthday party and has a fit and is looking for a gun. Tara knows where it is and she gets it and even points it at him, but in the end, she runs out in the yard and buries the gun and Tara's Ghost tells her mother she has to forgive herself and let her go so she can find peace and she does and Tara does and that's finally over with.

Sookie is lying with Bill who is sleeping fitfully when Eric shows up and he is healed. She asks Eric how he did that and he tells her he can't really tell her but that he wanted to let her know he was okay. She tells him that Bill has Hep-V and is dying because she gave it to him and the Hep V is moving faster because of her fairy blood. Eric wants to help but he has to be careful and he tells Sookie he will be back tomorrow night.

Mr. Gus explains to Eric that he has already gotten Sarah's blood synthesized but he does not want the cure to be absolute, he wants it to be a chronic illness so people will have to depend on it for the rest of their lives and make him extremely rich. But Pam and Eric knows this is a bad thing.

The next day, Jason is having breakfast at BBG's and Hoyt comes in and tells him that he has done nothing but think of Jessica. Jason tells him that Jessica's maker, Bill Compton is dying of Hep V and she is really going through a tough time right now.

Sookie decides she can't wait for Eric and she goes to Fangtasia where she sees these Yakusa guys and they let her in to see Eric and they threaten to kill her but Eric tells them he will glamour Sookie and she pretends to be glamoured but she over hears Mr. Gus' head saying that Pam and Eric would not double cross his because of what he has in the basement of Fangtasia. Sookie goes out and heads home but then thinks over what she heard and goes around the back of Fangtasia and heads down the old underground railroad tunnel and finds Sarah Newlin chained to the carousel. She listens to her head and discovers she is the cure.

Hoyt goes to see Jessica and he tells her that he heard about Bill being sick and he went and got tested so he is hepV negative and he got them to syphon them off a pint of his blood to give to Bill, so he would have something to maybe comfort him.

Sookie comes home and tells Jessica about Eric being cured and while she explains everything Bill has a dream that he sees Sookie rocking a baby and when he comes up behind her and looks down at the baby, it is just a black void in the blanket. Sookie wakes him up and takes him to Fangtasia just as Eric and Pam are there to siphon off a little blood from Sarah and when confronted with the cure, Bill says he doesn't want the cure.

So glad that they resolved the thing with Lettie Mae and they got Adilyn and Wade back and all that....Now we can get on with it.

Love that Eric is healed but hated that Pam had to hold a gun on herself to get him to simmer down and take the cure.

I am a little diffident about the thing with Hoyt and Jessica and he might remember eventually.

I am a little sad that the thing with Jessica and Jason will not really work out. What a bummer.

And really Bill, after Sookie and Eric have risked their lives or attempted to you are not going to take the cure....Your self loathing really must stop...

First, praise be given that the Lettie Mae/Lafayette/Tara drama is finished (insert yawn) also thanks for the Adelyn and Wade debacle finishing.

Well, I'm kinda sorry that Violet has gone to that big kink club in the sky, she was interesting although her trip into rabid batshite crazytown made her somewhat less than endearing.

I'm thrilled that Eric is all better although I think he still needs a major time out.

Sarah, you are finally in a place that you deserve. I mean it.

Sookie, I have to respect your determination to cure Bill.

Bill, just take the fucking cure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
