True Blood Season 4 Guide

It sure seems like everyone is getting jumped this episode starting with Tommy getting it from a pack of weres and then Sookie is jumped by Bill and Erik, but that one is just a dream. But then the really big jump on happens when Martonia and her pack of bewitched vampires show up at the Festival of Tolerance (how ironic!) and get a real jump on Bill.

Pretty soon is it chaos as Martonia tells Erik to kill Bill, Nan attacks cameras, Sookie attacks everyone trying to get to Erik and stop him and Bill pulls out a gun filled with magic bullets and starts spraying every vamp he sees. Nan is staking a vamp with a pencil (what??) and soon we see Erik over Bill, stake in hand! Lucky for Bill, Sookie pulls out some magic fairy power and uses her power balls to break the spell. For a non powerful gal, that Sookie can really zap them! Everyone starts coming back to their senses, which is when we leave this scene.

We see that Jason and Jessica have just done the dirty deed, and Jason is feeling kinda guilty. Not Jessica, the only thing on her mind is finding someone to eat. Nice girl you got there Jason!

Meanwhile Alcide is desperately trying to get a dying Tommy to some help. Tommy wants to die at Merlotte’s so that is where they go, and Sam is there. They lay Tommy out on the pool table and everyone says their goodbyes. Somewhere in here Sam has forgotten how much he hates Tommy, but with Tommy dead it hardly seems relevant anymore.

We make a quick move to Marcus, who is sharing a joint and maybe hoping to share more with Debbie. She complains about Alcide, and surprise Marcus makes his move. He starts telling her how she should find herself a wolf who wants the things she wants, namely him. He doesn’t know that Alcide and Sam are looking for him and are just one stop behind. We see them at the Bike Shop, being up close and aggressively physical with a guy there.

Just as we get comfy watching that blood splatter, we get whiplash from being zoomed back to the Old Magical Shoppe.

In it, Holly and Tara are trapped and trying to find a way to get away from Martonia, who is having internal arguments between Marnia and Antonia about what they should be doing next. Pretty funny, when you really think about it – but I guess this is true split personality!

Erick tells Sookie nothing has changed, he still loves her, but Sookie is now the one with doubts. She knows Bill is going to the Old Magic Shoppe to take out Marnie, but tries to talk him out of it because Tara is there. But Bill will have nothing to do with it – Marnie is too dangerous to let her stick around for the sake of one friend. Kinda cold blooded, don’t you think? He tells Sookie to stay put – but really who is he kidding? He knows she never listens to him, so why does he even bother?

Bill leaves and Jason comes over to Sookie’s house, to talk about how upset he is about Hoyt. She tells him about Bill’s plan and her fears for Tara and so they both go off to find Jesus and Lafayette to help them get Tara out from Marnie’s clutches. This does not look good!

Sure enough, before we know it Sookie, Lafayette and Jesus are all there with Tara and under the power of Marnie. Marnie and Antonia are still arguing between themselves about Marnie’s plan to get rid of all vamps, and finally Antonia is convinced she will go along with Marnie’s plans.

Meanwhile, Andy and Arlene and Terry are having an argument about V. Andy and Terry have a big fight, fistfight at that, and the truth of Andy feeling inferior to Terry comes out. Finally Andy admits he is afraid he has become addicted to V.

Back at the Olde Magic Shoppe things are coming to a head. Marnie has Sookie, Holly and Tara trapped, Jesus is there but unable to help and it looks like the vamps are getting suited up to go out and kill them some witches. Next week looks like it will be Showdown at the OK Corral, True Blood style!
