Can we get a hooray!!! DING DONG THE BITCH IS GONE!!!! Lorena met her demise, thanks to Sookie Stake-house (and, yes, I know it's Stackhouse...I'm just havin' a little fun with the name...stake-vampire-Stake-house...okay, I'll stop). Soooo, whoever said we would sympathize with Lorena must have been sniffing glue or something because I was applauding and saying, "bye-bye, Lorena...sick bitch."
Sookie: While Alcide locked up his werewolf ex and shot her were-boyfriend, Tara and Sookie placed Bill in the back of a dark moving van. Sookie, in an effort to revive Bill, cut her arm and allowed him to drink her blood. Unfortunately, Bill got a little greedy--he damn near drained her dead, unwittingly of course.
The remainder of the episode centered around Sookie in the hospital, fighting for her life. A couple of interesting revelations: 1. Sookie does not have a blood type and rejected all attempts at a blood transfusion; 2. Bill, after drinking Sookie's blood, was able to tolerate the sunlight; 3. Sookie, while "dying," visits another world--her world...I hesitate to say what that world is, just in case someone on here hasn't read the books.
Eric: Far too little of him in this episode. Anyway, he saved Pam from the freaky Magistrate, who then gets beheaded by Russel. Bye-bye Magistrate...sick SOB.
Sam: Did anyone else LOVE when he infiltrated the dog-fighting ring to save his brother? LOVED when he bullied the big dog that was bullying his little brother!
Some little things that bugged me: Sookie's other world. I don't know what it is, but I'm not sure if I liked it so much. Without giving too much away, I guess I thought it would be more, somehow--more magical, more fantasy--and not so Woodstock. And what did Claudine mean when she warned Sookie, "don't let him [Bill] steal your light." Huh? Oh, yeah, and all the floaty-folks in that other world are apparently terrified of vampires. Um. Uh?
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode...
I'm thinking you've read the books??
ReplyDeleteI didn't like the other world, either. Too 'hippy' not enough...what it was supposed to be.
If Sookie doesn't have a blood type, maybe she is just full of 'light'??
:) I'm really glad someone else didn't like the other world. It just didn't resonate the way I hoped it would.
ReplyDeleteI wondered about the light/blood connection when she picked up the glass and Claudine refilled it for her to drink. Maybe you're right--maybe for her, the light is her blood??
Boo on the other 'world' wth? seriously. I mean ok..thanks for introducing Claudine (although she's not as tall as I thought she would be)-but ugh..there is just so much in the books that NEEDS to be in the show..I think.
ReplyDeleteI giggled at Sam bullying the rottweiler..and he was just so cute in those overalls!
Yay for killing off the magistrate AND Lorena!
