As usual, True Blood starts up exactly
where it left off at the end of the previous season.
That means the first shot we see of season
six is a scared-looking Sookie (Anna Paquin) and Eric (Alexander Skarsgard),
who are staring at Bill (Stephen Moyer) being reborn as a bloody mess aka
the reincarnation of powerful vampire Lilith.
Prison Run
Sookie and Eric make a run for it, as
new/evil Bill terrorizes the Vampire Authority complex. Also escaping from the
complex are Jason (Ryan Kwanten), Tara (Rutina Wesley), Pam (Kristin Bauer van
Straten), Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) and Lucy (Nora Gainesborough). The
rag-tag, bloodied and bruised group ends up reuniting with Sookie and Eric
outside the complex and they all leave together.
Sam’s Going Solo
We first find Sam (Sam Trammell) trying to
save Luna (Janina Gavankar) who is suffering after shifting into Steve Newlin
at the end of season five. But she asks Sam to just take care of her
shape-shifting daughter. And then she dies. He’s responsible for little Emma
now.
Kill Bill?
Nora says that if Bill is indeed the
reincarnation of Lilith they need to kill him asap, which makes Jessica upset.
Jessica is “called” by Bill, and so she
physically can’t resist going to him. Sookie goes along, and when they find
Bill, Eric and Nora appear to attack him. But before Bill can kill Eric, Sookie
stabs him straight through the back. But Bill is clearly no ordinary vampire
now, and pulls the stake out of his chest.
Bill claims that he means no harm to anyone
and that’s he’s not Lilith, but rather a super-sized form of Bill.
Sookie tells
him to leave forever, but Jessica comes to his defense and says Bill is staying
and Sookie, Eric and Nora should just get on out of there.
It turns out that Bill’s new powers include
stopping things from falling with his mind. He also hears Lilith (that naked
bloody vampire lady) calling him from the other room.
Jason is on the hunt for Warlow, the
vampire who killed his parents. He points a gun at Nora to get her to tell him
what she knows, but Sookie defends her, which sends Jason running.
He ends up getting into a car with a
complete stranger (never a great idea) and, after sharing his whole life story
with the man, Jason discovers that this man has some connection to Warlow! When
Jason realizes this, the man disappears out of the car, which then starts to
veer out of control off the road.
Tru Blood Shortage
Since those Tru Blood factories were blown
up, there’s been an increase in human being eaten. The Louisiana governor
announces that there will be a vampire curfew, forcing vampires to remain
indoors after sundown. He is also closing down all vampire-run businesses.
The Louisiana governor meets with the
owners of the Tru Blood company, and offers to be a silent partner and let them
use his warehouse. But what’s in it for him? He claims he simply wants to
vampires to get their blood so they’ll stop eating humans. Do we believe him?
Maybe not?
Pam’s Broken Heart
Pam is really bummed that Eric doesn’t care
about him anymore. She goes back to Fangtasia with Tara, who tries to comfort
her, but Pam tells her that they aren’t about to embark on some “epic love
story” and that Tara can never replace Eric. Then, the police bust into Fangtasia
to tell Pam that her business must be shut down. Tara tries to defend her,
which gets her shot.
Alcide Gets Meaty
Apparently the only way to become
packmaster is to take a bite out of the dead body of the previous packmaster,
so that’s exactly what Alcide does.
After running around in the woods for a
while, Alcide gets some lovin’ from a couple of werewolf ladies who are
battling for his affection. Hello threesome in the woods!
