1x11 - “To Love Is to Bury”
Written and directed by Nancy Oliver

Episode Description:
Bill fulfills the conditions of the tribunal’s sentence, although he and Eric (Alexander Skarsgård) find that Jessica doesn’t quite turn (out) as expected. Trying to solve the mystery behind her most recent vision, Sookie heads to a pie shop with Sam and later puts the squeeze on a philandering police officer to get info. Jason helps clean up Amy’s mess, worrying about their future, but unable to break away. Tara’s anger over Lettie Mae’s refusal to bail her out of jail is tempered when Maryann Forrester (Michelle Forbes), a wealthy “social worker,” comes to her rescue. Disgusted by the hypocrisy of a vamp-bashing state senator, Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis) decides to pay him a visit on the campaign trail. In Bill’s absence, a vulnerable Sookie finds comfort in Sam. A distraught Jason finds himself in hot water with Bud (William Sanderson) and Andy (Chris Bauer), again.

Thanks for getting us started, Andie

Thanks for the thread, Andie!

I can't believe this is the second last episode of the season

Me neither Jen

Cowboy Junkies "To Love Is To Bury"

Quote:

I buried him down by the river
cause thats where he liked to be
And every night when the moon is high
I go there and weep openly

He and I were married
By this river neath this willow tree
And with God and friends witnessing it
He pledged his life to me

To me he was earth
And I rooted in his soil
I to he was sky vast and free
Of the burdens from which he toiled

Then one night a terrible fight
Words spoken better left unsaid
With his wedding vows ringing in my ears
He gave his life to me

They say to love is to bury
Those demons from which we all hide
But tonight by this river neath this willow tree
Becoming one of earth and sky

200 more miles

Atlantas a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire

I got willie on the radio
A dozen things on my mind
And number one is fleshing out
These dreams of mine

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

In nashville there is a lighter
In a case for all to see
It speaks of dreams and heartaches
Left unsung

And in the corner stands a guitar and
Lonesome words scrawled in a drunken hand
I dont travel past, travel hard before
And Im beginning to understand

That Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

They say that I am crazy
My life wasting on this road
That time will find my dreams
Scared or dead and cold

But I heard there is a light
Drawing me to reach an end
And when I reach there, Ill turn back
And you and I can begin again

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But therell be no warm sheets or welcoming arms
To fall into tonight

Ive got 200 more miles of rain asphalt in line
Before I sleep
But I wouldnt trade all your golden tomorrows
For one hour of this night

Atlantas a distant memory
Montgomery a recent birth
And tulsa burns on the desert floor
Like a signal fire

Might the the one... thoughts?

sookie: "i love him...but if vampires politics are more important to him than me"
huh?!!!wtf?!!! this seem like a pb of continuity book/show, i mean bill in the show didnt go off to deal with politics but a life or death sentence helloooooo five yrs chained in silver,duhhhhh....

the girl"you're the worst maker ever" quote of the night!!!! i'm laughing my head off,that scene with bill was hilarious,he's gonna have his hands full with her,should keep him busy if things with sookie arent going smooth anymore
that girl rant about how serious he is ,and using the word intercourse is just one of many things why i'm in love with him ...

what a fitting end to the whole jason /amy debacle ,now i know for sure it's either hoyt or rené the killer,coz jason mentionned to them he didnt know for sure whether she had been with a vampire and he said not to tell anyone else...

itsalright · 11-16-2008, 08:34 PM

Jessica and Bill.... that was so hilarious! Haha!

I felt so bad for Jason. I was hating Amy hardcore, but when she died I actually felt bad because of how it would affect Jason.

Poor Tara. Her mother is a horrible person. But, what does that lady want from her? She seems like a sugamama or something.

I wanted more Lafayette!

And last, Sookie pissed me off so bad. She is just not thoughtful when it comes to others, all she can think about is herself. Bill was gone for about 3 nights, did she once stop to worry about him? They had that very sad parting and Bill was taken away from her... and she didn't once stop to think that something may have happened to him and he was being kept away from contacting her. "Vampire politics are more important than me." WHAT? He risked so much just to protect her.

**Guinevere** · 11-16-2008, 08:37 PM

Uhh Sookie, is not Politics, Its the Vampire Law! *smacks her*

**Mushkah** · 11-16-2008, 08:38 PM

Jessica, Bill and Eric made the episode for me! When Eric was like "SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP" I bursted out laughing! Poor bill, he cant handle her well, lol

**Guinevere** · 11-16-2008, 08:53 PM

Thats expected, Bill has never turned anyone before.. Eric has, and he knows how to handle newborn Vamps.

**Mushkah** · 11-16-2008, 08:56 PM

I guess, but I loved how confused/scared Bill looked

and Eric and that leather jacket

On the other hand, WOOO! Goodbye Amy!

Sucks that Rene is the killer, i kinda liked him in the show

ladyevenstar22 · 11-16-2008, 08:57 PM

I THINK i'll go order the 2nd book to see exactly what venturing AB is doing into season 2 coz i need some explaining?!!

Charmqn · 11-16-2008, 08:59 PM

Oh yeah, seeing Eric in the leather is a great thing...Now AB needs to have Eric naked.

I am glad that Amy is dead, but I felt bad for Jason; he obviously really liked her.Ryan did a an amazing job in conveying the confusion and heartbroken panic of someone who has the belief he might be a murderer, but not the complete conviction.

I have to agree with you about Sookie. I mean I did not understand why she acted the way she did. Of course, I feel bad for both Bill and Sam. I mean she is taking both of them for a ride. She is like hot and cold with both of them. I think they should have her by herself from both and just let it be friendship or something cause she can not handle a relationship right now.

BLACKMARIAH213 · 11-17-2008, 03:26 AM

Hi. Newbie here.

Well anyway. I was kind of getting sick of Amy

, but now I feel bad...Poor Jason

.

As for Sookie and Sam. That's pretty messed up of Sookie

.

I was laughing when Jessica was dancing up and down, happy that she didn't have to follow her parents' rules.

Bill. What can I say?

I fell in love when him from the beginning.

Oh, and then the picture of Cindy's brother, Drew...So was not expecting it

.
