The World According to LaTaeya

WOW, it was so hard for me to sleep after last night’s episode of True Blood.  The show went out with a BANG!!!  Sam learned more about his brother Tommy’s deceitful shapeshifting ways at his burial and was somewhat reunited with Sookie at the bar.  Lafayette and Jesus’ storyline got very interesting.  Possessed again by an unwanted spirit Marnie/Lafayette did the unthinkable and took Jesus’ powers and killed him. Tara finds him a little too late only to add another body to her repertoire.  Warning Sookie about Marnie, Tara, Holly and Sookie find a chained Bill and Eric waiting to meet the blazes of fire and brimstone.  The Witch approaches and once again the battle resumes.  Tara, Holly and Sookie channel the powers and energy of Samhain to call upon the powers of their dead relatives.  At this point I am sitting on the edge of my recliner!! Gran and Antonia return to convince Marnie that her spirit belongs with them now.  But not before Sookie uses her Fairy magic to intercept Marnie and her magical influence.  Overwhelmed by the situation Sookie asks her grandmother to stay.  Marnie is defeated.  Naturally Gran declines the invitation and Sookie is left with the feeling of loss all over again.  From there on the episode just gets better and better.  Jason and Jess have an intimate moment but she does not want to be tied down in a relationship.  Jason reveals to Hoyt when he first slept with Jess and he obviously does not take it well.  Sookie said her goodbye’s to both vampires after a convincing conversation with Alcide.  The ghost of Rene returns to haunt Arlene and Nan Flanagan returns to put a fire under Bill and Eric.  Sick of her annoying demanding rules involving Vampire Politics they both lash out.  Eric kills her men and Bill stakes her!! I was cheering at this point.  I am over Nan and her shenanigans!! Steve Newlin pops up at Jason’s door a VAMPIRE, and Debbie returns to seek revenge on Sookie out of her jealousy.  Debbie shoots at Sookie but Tara gets hit in the head trying to protect her.  Blood is everywhere and she looks dead but I am not convinced yet.   Sookie shoots Debbie at close range killing her in retaliation!! There are two options for Tara.  Bill and Eric sense Sookie’s fear and pop up.  If Tara has a faint pulse they can give her blood and she will heal, or they could turn her.(If she is turned she will become the very thing she has hated and resented all these years or spend the rest of her life owing the two vamps her gratitude.)  Russell Edgington escapes the temporary prison that Bill and Eric put him in last season, which conveniently is now on Alcide’s business property.  I knew Russell was not dead.  I don’t understand why Bill didn’t kill him.  That was a bad decision on both of their parts.  He has had a whole year to heal underground and there is no telling what he may do.  It’s actually good that Nan is dead, for Bill and Eric’s sake.  Russell may claim that they have betrayed him and try to sentence them the true death for treason.  Russell may head straight for Sookie since he knows what she is.   The havoc he will unleash will be deadly in season 5.  I can not wait until next summer!!
