***Nad*** · 07-10-2009, 03:05 AM

Episode Description:

With Jessica in tow, Bill and Sookie head to Dallas to carry out Eric's vampire-reconnaissance mission--but a surprise awaits them at the airport. At the Light of Day Institute, Jason falls victim to a practical joke, but has the last laugh when the Newlins anoint him for a higher calling. Maryann throws Tara a birthday party at Sookie's, attracting much of Bon Temps to its Bacchanalian revelry. Sam postpones his departure from town to attend the bash, connecting with Daphne in the process. Having barely escaped Fangtasia, Lafayette finds himself reluctantly pulled back into Eric's orbit.

Thanks for starting the thread Nad

Looks like it will be a good episode.

It's written by Alan Ball, it's a given that it'll be a great episode

Interesting, especially about Lafeyette

I am so excited for this episode! I am going through withdrawal after two weeks without a new episode.

Excited for this, a Sunday without new True Blood is no fun.

i am so excited about this episode and no withdrawals i could cry every time they're on a hiatus....everytime i watch them i wish it was longer, and not 12 epi's

**quicksand** · 07-12-2009, 06:09 PM

I'm gonna have to wait until tmorrow to watch this. Can someone tell me if we get a gratiutous amount of Eric, Pam, and/or Lafayette? That's really all I'm dying for.

**Queen Bee** · 07-12-2009, 06:18 PM

^word, those 3 pwn.

Niahm · 07-12-2009, 07:09 PM

We got a bit of Eric&Lafayette (not nearly enough IMO), but no Pam.

I thought the episode was pretty cool. Jason is sooo gonna have sex with the church lady, and I can't wait to see it. Should raise some problems.

Loved Eric&Lafayette, especially Lafayette's "dance" after drinking Eric's blood.

Someone needs to make a gif of that immediately.
Jessica was hilarious trying to get off the coffin, and I seriously LOVED that Hoyt/Jessica moment. 'I don't believe him for a minute'.

That was CUTE.

ETA: I forgot to mention Barry! That was pretty cool, them both being in each other's head.

What happened with them? Did he turn Lafayette?
