[WOMAN SCREAMING]
- Shut the fucking lid! - Shut up.
- I can't live like this. - Shut up.
Leave me alone. I'm done with you. Unh!
[TARA GRUNTING]
PAM: Oh, my God.
Don't ever try that again.
Fuck you. You have no right.
[MACHINE WHIRRING AND TARA SCREAMING]
As your maker, I command you, do not try it again, ever.
[MACHINE SHUTS OFF]
[PANTING]
Goddamn it.
SOOKIE: Alcide, I'm sorry.
LAFAYETTE: Don't fucking tell me you--
He knew. He already knew.
Bullshit!
I can't keep lying. We're gonna dig ourselves deeper.
Think I enjoy it? Hm?
I could have sold your peach-pie ass out so many times, I done lost count.
And the one motherfucking thing I needed from you, Sook, is to zip it.
- And this is how you do me? - I didn't mention you.
- No, you can save that for another day. - Lafayette, please.
We did so many terrible things.
The only way to crawl out of this hole is to start doing right.
It's how Gran raised me. Do the right thing, it'll be okay.
Oh, yeah, baby. You survive.
You always do.
But, goddamn, do you leave a trail of bodies behind.
You know what? You're the fucking angel of death.
[SOBBING]
MAN: Don't fuck it up, gentlemen.
Well, apart from these, your escape ploy worked brilliantly.
BILL: I'm a bit surprised myself.
We don't have many suspects of who might have broken Russell out.
Only four of us knew where he was.
[CAR DOOR LOCK CHIRPING]
I'll drive.
[NORA SCREAMING]
NORA: God!
No, there is no one else!
Nora?
[NORA SCREAMING]
She's holding out. I know it.
She must have allies.
Let's continue to torture her.
Everyone breaks eventually.
This cancer in our midst, how long can we watch and wait before it kills us?
No.
I need you to talk to her.
She loves you like a sister.
You and only you can get her to open up, give us the names.
And if she doesn't?
Then fuck it. We execute her publicly.
Let the Sanguinistas know that we are willing to kill just as much as they are.
You know what could be persuasive? Hm?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Coming! I'm just--
- What? - What took you so long?
I had the TV on. Whoa, whoa.
It's late, Sook. Can't this wait?
Just-- Just be quiet for a second. I'm turning myself in.
-Into what? -lnto the police.
I need you to arrest me.
I killed Debbie Pelt!
Are you listening to yourself?
She came into my house with a shotgun.
I turned it around on her, blew her head clean off.
I can take you to the body. I'm not making this up.
Shut up. Shut your mouth. I don't wanna hear another word.
I'm sick of it. I'm sick of lying and covering and ruining people's lives.
You gotta get out of here.
- This conversation never happened. - I confessed to Alcide.
He's gonna be at the station in the morning. Just put me away.
Ain't no way I'm gonna put you in jail.
Just, uh-- Uh-- Act normal tomorrow, okay? Don't do anything crazy.
I'll try and find out how much Andy knows...
...and we'll think of something.
- Is Alcide the only one who knows? - No.
Lafayette was there, and Tara.
She took a bullet for me and was more or less dead...
...so we had Pam turn her to vampire.
- You what? - She was dying. I didn't have time to think.
Jesus Christ!
I told you.
I ruin people's lives.
Tara's a vampire.
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
Oh, good Lord.
I'm gonna fucking kill her.
Ginger, we're open till 4, bleach bucket! Where is everyone?
ERIC: I sent them all home.
Oh, my God. Sookie, you fucking did it.
Well, no need for apologies, right?
I'm certainly not waiting for one.
Barely remember what we got all het up over.
Let bygones be bygones, bi-girls be bi-girls.
Oh, hi.
Why is she here?
Uh... She's mine.
I made her vampire while you were gone.
Congratulations, you're a grandfather.
Would you mind?
Join me, will you?
What's wrong? What's happened?
BILL: I remember the impulse.
I had it myself for years.
It'll pass. I promise.
Well, I can't ever do it again, even I wanted.
Pam went all, "As your maker, I command you," on me.
Which is a card I'm surprised y'all don't play more often.
- Sookie know? - What do you think?
How many of us have nearly died just to save her sorry ass?
Well, I did them all one better.
- Is Sookie safe? - Don't.
You can't keep asking yourself that question.
You can't worry about her above everything else.
Look where it got me.
Gotta move on.
Is she safe?
Yeah.
She's always safe.
Because there'll always be some fool there to take a bullet for her.
Always.
PAM: Aah! - Stop fucking lying!
I'm not lying. I swear.
I don't know where Russell is.
Look what's happened to you.
A century together...
...and never once have I ever done anything to hurt you...
...to hurt us.
How could you think I would go and dig up Russell Edgington?
You're my maker, Eric...
...and I would die for you, gladly...
...a thousand times before I would ever betray you.
You know I would.
And you'd be a fool.
I trust no one.
You shouldn't either.
If I mean so little to you...
...then why keep me around?
If you can't trust me more than Bill Compton or--
Or a werewolf, for chrissake...
...then release me and get it over with.
Just say the words.
"As your maker...
...I release you."
Say it and we're done.
Say it!
Not Pam.
You're certain?
She knows nothing.
What did Tara say?
Well, nothing to suggest that she or Pam knew anything about Russell.
There's no one else you've told? Not even your sister?
You mean the one who is in the Authority?
- I'd hope you think more of me. - Russell's the martyr to the opposition.
If she were planning a coup, he could be useful.
If Nora were planning a coup, I would have known about it...
...and I still wouldn't have given her Russell. I'm not suicidal.
Are you sure you didn't tell anyone?
- Jessica? - If I had, we would have gone to her first.
We need to go to ground.
And tomorrow, we'll have to cast the net wider.
There's a leak somewhere.
Standing around in Northman's bar?
This is finding Russell Edgington?
Has it occurred to anyone that they may have killed Russell a year ago...
...and this hunt is a charade to buy more time?
Or perhaps a hoax to rally the Sanguinistas?
Believers do need something to believe in.
We've got uprisings on four of the seven continents.
Even a rumor of Russell's escape would be enough...
...to defeat vampire rights bills in most countries.
I got bills passed all across Scandinavia months ago.
- Just saying. ROSALYN: Oh, please.
The most liberal humans in the world.
Hardly any radical believers to rock the boat.
Even a child could do it.
Speaking of radical believers, turn to two.
NORA [ON MONITOR]: I swear fealty to the blood and to the progenitor.
The first, the last, the eternal.
Father and Mother, Lord and Lilith...
...protect me as I protect you from now until the hour of the true death.
What a lunatic. It's like she means it.
NORA: Aah! ROSALYN: Heh, heh.
Wake up, sister. It's just a book.
I know the guy who wrote it, and he was high the whole time.
Oh, you be careful where you say that.
Guardian doesn't like us disparaging the book.
I don't see him here.
He's busy with his own woman on her knees.
Well, you play your cards right...
...maybe you won't have to look at Facebook for that.
Know what I mean? Heh, heh.
Oh, hey, Holly, I gotta go. See you later. Bye.
Hey, hey. There's the moon man himself. I saw your picture on the internet.
Like.
- Your Honor, we found the perpetrator. - Don't dignify it, sheriff.
I just came by to say thank you for clearing my son's ticket.
I wish I could bring him to you for all his problems...
...but you ain't a gynecologist.
What say we celebrate?
I found me a place that is gonna blow your top.
Trust me on this one.
You too, Stackhouse. You can party, can't you?
- Sure. If it's no bother. - The merrier the more. Come on with.
I can party some.
Well, okay.
So I'll meet you two back here at 7.
Look sharp.
Oh, and Andy...
...don't you ever let them put a picture of your johnson on the internet.
You wanna know why?
Because it'll never stand up in court.
[MEN LAUGHING]
Hey, Sam. Barack and Hillary over there are asking for you.
Who?
Hi.
SAM: What the hell are you doing here?
Oh, relax. Can't a couple of shifters have a nice lunch?
What happened to staying out of each other's daily lives?
That was before you stopped returning our calls.
Well, I've been under a lot of stress.
And friends would talk to each other about it.
Wait. Wait a minute, is this an intervention?
-It's an invitation. - Come back. Run with us.
We're not gonna let you go so easily.
Well, I appreciate the offer, but with Luna and me...
-...I'm not sure now is a good time. - Oh, we know.
She said the same thing, so we chose you.
Come on, man. Don't you need a run?
Just us.
All right, fine.
But y'all are still paying for lunch.
Heh, heh. We're good for it.
- So, what do you recommend here? - Honestly, nothing.
Oh, hey, Sookie.
I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were--
Go ahead. Take your time.
HOLLY: Shoot. How am I gonna get through a Whole shift With that girl...
...after she let that happen to Tara?
No way she wanted to be a vampire. Doubt she even had a choice.
WOMAN 1: The nerve, showing her face like nothing happened.
No human decency.
MAN 1'. What in hell?
WOMAN Z: Shame.
MAN 2.". You got nice titties. WOMAN 3'. Tara Thornton.
MAN 3'. I'd still hit that.
WOMAN 4: Vamper. WOMAN 5: What a Waste.
MAN 4: I knew you were a fangbanger. WOMAN 6: Human life.
MAN 5: Go to hell. WOMAN 'Z: Liar
MAN 8'. Why won't she bring my fucking food? WOMAN 8'. What a freak.
MAN '1'. Lord's gonna take care of her.
He knew. He already knew.
The one motherfucking thing I needed from you was to zip it.
- I can't keep lying. - You're the fucking angel of death.

ALCIDE: Gordon. Barbara.
Want to talk to you about your daughter.
I think you deserve the truth.
I wasn't honest with you yesterday.
I do know what happened to Debbie.
I realized if I didn't tell you, then you might never know...
...and I can't live with that.
GORDON: Go on.
Mr. Pelt...
...Mrs. Pelt...
...I'm sorry to tell you...
...Debbie's gone.
[BARBARA SOBBING]
She, um...
She was killed.
- Did you kill her? - No, sir, I did not.
That I swear to you.
So there's no reason to reach for your gun.
- But you do know who did it. - I do.
His name was Marcus Bozeman.
He was our packmaster in Shreveport.
He was a psychopath.
After I abjured Debbie...
...Marcus tried to move in on her.
She resisted.
He got physical.
- She wound up getting killed. - Oh, my God.
Well, how did she--?
- How did it happen? - I'm not sure. I wasn't there.
But a few nights later, he got drunk and he bragged about it to me.
Thought I wouldn't care.
Maybe I'd give him some respect as alpha, but he was wrong about that.
I jumped him.
And I broke his neck with my own hands.
That you can ask any wolf in Shreveport.
You sat at our dinner table when you were 16 years old.
[ALCIDE SOBBING]
You used to tell us how you would die for her.
What happened, Alcide?
Ma'am, I loved Debbie.
Even when I abjured her, I still loved her.
We were just no good together anymore.
But I never stopped caring about your daughter.
Never.
That is the God's honest truth.
Argh!
BARBARA: No! Gordon, stop!
Stop.
You wanna turn me in to the police, I can't stop you.
And for that matter, you wanna kill me right here and now...
[SOBBING]

ANDY: My ass.
What's up?
Debbie Pelt's parents checked out of their motel, went back to Mississippi.
- Said they got what they came for. - Huh.
Well...
Hey. That's a good thing, ain't it? Means we can drop the search.
Are you kidding? They wouldn't tell me to call off the dogs...
...unless them dogs smelled a rat.
What if there is no rat? What if the dogs is just tired of looking?
I'm the dog in this analogy, and I ain't tired of looking for a rat.
I know something's fishy.
Judge still owes me. I'm gonna get a search warrant...
...search every property within 500 yards of that car.
I know that includes your sister's lot. Me and Kevin'll search there.
- Jess, what's up? JESSICA: Um...
I came to talk to the sheriff about the Debbie Pelt case.
- You been talking to her about it? - No. Honestly.
- Jess, what are you--? - Hey, listen, sheriff.
You need to hear this.
Are you listening?
- Yeah. JESSICA: Good.
The Pelt case. As far as you are concerned, it's closed.
Some reason, it just don't interest you anymore, okay?
Now give me that file.
Thank you.
In fact...
...it is so far in your rearview...
...you don't even remember the name Debbie Pelt.
Not the abandoned car or the grieving parents.
It's all gone.
Must be a load off your shoulders.
Yeah, I feel a lot better.
JESSICA: Well, thank you.
You've made me a very happen citizen of Renard Parish.
Happy to oblige.
You are a good friend to have.
I know.
- Where's Bill? - He had an errand.
Hm.
Sit.
We shouldn't fool ourselves.
Searching for Russell Edgington is a suicide mission.
Even if Bill and I do get him, we'd still be facing a treason charge.
- I thought you had friends in the Authority. - Well, a friend...
...and she can't help me anymore.
Either Russell will have our heads...
...or the Authority will.
And there is no other option.
I'll go with you. We've defeated Russell before.
- We can put up a fight against the Authority. - Listen.
The end may come soon, and I can't have you there.
Eric, I want to.
No. What you said in anger...
...you were right.
I have to release you.
And it's not because I don't trust you or because I don't care.
It's because you are my only progeny...
...my one legacy.
I need you to live when I'm gone.
If that is your wish...
...I understand.
I accept
Do it.
Pamela...
...I renounce the ties of our blood...
...and my dominion over you as my progeny.
As your maker...
...I release you.

- Do like the Buddhists. Be the vessel. Ha, ha. DELILAH: Ha, ha, ha.
- That's right. You tell them, judge. CLEMENTS: How long we gotta keep these on?
ANGELICA: Just till we get to the club. CLEMENTS: What are we waiting for?
- Let's hit it. - Okay, you heard the man. Drive.
JESSICA: Maybe if you gave me a hint, I'd know what I was looking for.
A bug, a recording device, a transmitter or anything of the sort.
- Who's bugging you? - No one, I hope.
But I need to be certain.
Bill, you're still a king, aren't you?
Why do you even ask?
I don't know. Obviously something's happened.
As prescribed by the one true Vampire Authority...
...I am the sole sovereign of the kingdom of Louisiana...
...until such time as I meet the true death.
Or until they change their mind.
So I had a few friends over, okay? No one got eaten, no one got drained.
There's no need.
It's your home too.
You can take care of yourself.
But this is low-quality shit.
Get the staff to clear it up.
Hey, are you gonna go see Sookie?
She's just had a rough couple of days, you know, with Tara and Debbie.
You've taken care of it with the sheriff.
Wouldn't make a habit of doing that, though.
She has a tendency to bring it out in people.
Bill, I saw her.
And she's falling apart. This is different.
And I don't care about what happened.
Sookie and you is different than Sookie and anyone else.
You take care of yourself first.
What?
I think I've done well.
The righteous do suffer.
I am not Job. I accept my fate.
Do you accept the true death that will come of your treason?
Unh!
- So be it. - Nora, my dear, I won't accept it.
I've loved you as my own blood for centuries...
...and I won't see you martyred for the sins of others.
Who has swayed you?
Who is gathering the extremists to bring us down'?
We know you are a sanguinist. You already confessed that.
I just don't see you as a leader.
Fuck off.
[LAUGHING]
You have seared and sliced...
...every inch of my body.
There's nothing left to say.
If you care nothing for your own life...
...what about the lives of Compton and Northman?
Kill them.
What do I care? They'll probably die anyway.
Shall we do it now?
I love this thing. Especially this app.
You say the word, I'll trigger the stakes.
Say the word.
- Say the word. - If I tell you--
If I tell you...
...how can I be assured of their safety?
I swear upon the blood of Lilith.
Give us the name of the true infidel...
...and Northman and Compton will be spared.
This is my most solemn vow as a believer.
Tell me.

I don't care.

Oh, fuck.
Ow.
- Yeah? - Oh, thank the Lord, Sook.
- Are you okay? - Now you ask?
I'm the best I've been in a long time.
- Why? - Because your car is wrapped around a pole...
...like a giant banana split, and you ain't got no air bag. What--?
- What the hell happened? - I don't know. I lost control.
- It was like the car had a mind of its own. - Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Shit.
It's okay. I bailed just in time.
It was kind of awesome.
Um, Sook, we gotta talk.
Stay there. I'm coming by.
No, no. I'm okay. I promise.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
You got here fast.
Oh, you're kidding.
It's unlocked.
Lafayette, I gotta go.
If you wanna do me a favor, call Jeb Lecroy and have him tow my car in.
And don't worry about me. I'm fine.
Sook, I gotta tell you s--
Oh, shit.
You smell like mint and peaches.
You smell like Aqua Velva.
[SNIFFING]
Listen. I went to the Pelts.
I told them about Debbie.
Oh, great.
Hope you like me in an orange jump suit.
No, no, wait. Just hold on.
I told them Debbie was dead. I think they deserved to know that.
But everything else that came out of my mouth was a lie...
...all to clean up your goddamn mess.
I think they believed me.
Why would you do that?
If the truth came out, you'd go to jail.
If the truth didn't come out...
...the Pelts would never know what happened to their baby.
So seemed like the best way.
Oh, my God.
I am so, so sorry I put you in the middle of all this.
I know you're probably still furious with me...
...but please...
...please know how grateful I am.
I know you are.
Can I at least offer you something to drink?
Bar is open.
And it's fruity.
I'm gonna need more than one.
PATRICK: What do you think?
TERRY: It's the last structure left on the property.
PATRICK: I think Eller took off.
- Give me a hand. - Yup.
Whoa.

Come on. It's way past sundown.
No vampire of mine sleeps all night.
What the hell happened to you?
And who's she?
Nothing. And Melanie.
She's here because someone needs to feed.
Seriously, three days old and she has an eating disorder. Why me?
Get the fuck away.
Don't you understand I was human three days ago?
I can't look at another person like she's dinner.
- Listen, you seem-- MELANIE: Delicious?
I was gonna say nice, but okay. Um-- Uh--
-it's not you. I just don't know-- - Oh, no, it's fine.
I don't mind.
-L-- I can't do it. - You have to.
- No.No. - Do it.
- I'll say it. Do it or I'll say it. - Please don't.
- No. Please, no. - As your maker, I command you.
- Bite her. MELANIE: Unh!
Slow down. You'll kill her.
Take her to the precipice of dead, then hold her there.
Blood drained of oxygen is pure and thick.
There now.
You don't even have to try.
Let it flow to you. Her heart's pulsing.
- Her life, it's yours. Drink. - Ah...
[MELANIE GRUNTING]
This is who you are now. The top of the chain.
No human can hurt you any longer.
They're yours to savor.
[SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
At least that's what the scientists call it. A bit clumsy for my taste.
I prefer the colloquial.
- The Judas Tree. - Ah.
There. Now, that tells us everything, doesn't it?
And thus it was from this bough that Judas lscariot hanged himself.
The tip, melted down from his 30 pieces of silver...
...the price paid for his betrayal.
That is, if you believe in that sort of thing.
It's what the book tells us.
Yes, but really, who is to say?
Any shard of wood will do the job.
But if you take the book literally...
...then, yes, here it is.
The holy of the holies.
We all have matters to attend to. May I motion to adjourn?
No, no, I can't do that. I'm having your quarters searched.
Guardian, it is not possible. We are all loyal.
And we all know that there are extremists...
...who still refuse to recognize the wisdom of mainstreaming.
If one chancellor can be swayed from the path, then why not two?
Is it true?
It is as Nora said. There is another traitor.
Treachery.
Sedition under this roof.
Chancellor Drew, can you explain why this in your possession?

ALEXANDER [ON COMPUTER]: Die, human. You are food to us.
[WOMAN SCREAMING AND ALEXANDER GRUNTING]
Guardian, I apologize. It's a stupid memento.
Who here hasn't fed on a human at some point?
If there are those of us who do, we certainly don't tape it...
...let alone send it out to Misrata...
...Damascus, St. Petersburg.
Sent to known enemies of the Authority with the encrypted message:
"In sympathy...
...and solidarity."
I can explain.
I was infiltrating them, gaining their trust.
ALEXANDER: Aah!
Alert your constituents. There will be no more rebellions.
No further opposition to our just cause.
You Will...
...fall in line.
Am I understood?
Bless the blood.

SOOKIE: This was a Tara special.
She made it as a joke, but people kept ordering it.
Triple sec, Amaretto, Bailey's.
- She called it Orange Marzipan. - No.
I'm nowhere near drunk enough.
That's why you have to have one. The drunker you are, the less you care.
- That is unbelievably fucking nasty. - Heh, heh.
[LAUGHS]
How often you do this?
Not enough. Heh, heh.
[CHUCKLES]
I feel good for the first time in who knows?
I think the whole world hates me...
...but they can just go bite me, those who haven't already.
I killed your ex-girlfriend, and you're still speaking to me.
Well, I'm mainly here for the drinks.
- Then finish your Orange Marzipan. - I don't want any. It's disgusting.
- But I made it for you. - I don't give a fuck.
- Come on. You'll do anything for me. - Yeah? Well, not that.
- Yes, you will. You're in love with me. - Screw you.
That's what you think, huh?
ERIC: Awkward time for a drop-in, Bill.
Jessica mentioned Sookie had been having a rough go of it.
ERIC: Hm. She seems to be recovering nicely.
- Can we go back to looking for Russell now? - We are looking for Russell.
Clearly without any success.
Sookie could be useful.
I don't think she wants anything to do with us again.
I don't think we give her the choice.

LEDA: You're thinking of someone else.
A vampire?
Wait. Did you just read--?
What is this place?
HADLEY: Jason?
Hadley?
- Oh, my God. HADLEY: Ha, ha.
Thank goodness.
Leda, this is my cousin I was telling you about. Well, one of them. Ha, ha.
Wait, wait, wait. When did you get back?
- Does Sookie know you're here? - Sookie?
- Yeah. - She's alive?
Yeah, of course she's alive.
Oh, my God. I thought after she disappeared...
- Jason, we gotta go get her. - Wait. Hadley, do you work here?
Don't worry. I don't touch anybody. I could probably get you a job.
- Do you dance? - Yeah.
- But I don't need a job. - Aren't you a refugee?
A refugee? From what?
The vampires. That's why I brought my son.
What, is this some kind of--? Some kind of fairy safe house?
Vampires will drain anyone with a drop of fairy blood...
...if they don't stay together. We gotta get Sookie.
The last time Sookie got mixed up with the fairies, things didn't turn out too good.
- She might be better off with the vampires. - No, no. She can't be around vampires.
They're gonna turn on her. I know it.
They will kill her, just like they did your parents.
- What? LEDA: Hadley.
No. My parents were killed in a flood.
Weren't they?
- Hadley, go now. JASON: Weren't they?
- Look, I said too much. - Calm down.
HADLEY: You gotta get Sookie. - Wait. Excuse me.
Hadley. Hadley, what are you talking about?
Hadley. Where are you going?
BOUNCER: Calm down, sir. - Take it easy. That's my cousin.
- Get your fucking hands off me! ANDY: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- What's the matter? - Hadley.
Get your hands off him. Back off.
- I'm the sheriff. You don't wanna do this. - Hadley!
Stackhouse.
