True Blood 3x11

True Blood, Fresh Blood, on HBO
So, Eric has imprisoned Sookie in his basement. Bill tries rescuing her, but Pam restrains him with the vampire version of pepper spray: colloidal silver. It is one of Eric’s human lovers who releases Sookie and together they overpower Pam with a silver chain. Meanwhile, Eric tells King Russell that they are even: Russell killed the people he loved, and he has had his revenge by killing the person Russell loved. Eric explains that Sookie’s fairy blood allows vampire to become daywalkers. Russell is thrilled. At Fangtasia, Eric and Russell drink from Sookie, while Bill looks on enraged, tied to a chair with silver chains. Eric walks into the sunlight, followed by Russell a few minutes later. Already charred, Eric handcuffs Russell. “Be brave,” he says, “we’ll die together.” Okay...

Hoyt and Jessica are back together. She confesses that she enjoys drinking human blood and has killed someone while they were on their break. He tells her he loves her and doesn’t care. He offers her to drink his blood. Jason struggles with the news that his girlfriend is a werepanther but eventually accepts her. After their trip on vampire blood, Lafeyette still has delusional visions and asks Jesus to leave. What is this weird voodoo stuff about? Still drunk on Jack Daniel’s, Sam throws out all the customers at Merlotte’s. Only Tara stays behind – and they have sex again. It is all a little uninteresting. Unfortunately, this episode did not live up to the expectations set by last week’s. Because of Labor Day weekend, the season finale is next week. It better be good.

  1. This episode was rather weak. How did Eric know to find Russell in the museum? And I thought the older you were the faster you burn, Russell is 3 thousand years old so he should have combusted into flames at that moment. Fairy blood still holding out? And Sam turns a complete 180 having a few drinks? Not likely. I liked Lafayette and Jesus but this v trip and the voodoo stuff they see was pointless and tiresome. Is it to show Jesus is a witch? The only really good moment was Hoyt and Jessica, their relationship is so fragile and tender. I just want to hug them both!
