True Blood Voices from the UK - Season 2 Episode 8

Hi Folks, Here we go again, Episode 8 "Timebomb", was just amazing this week. As alot of the story is focused primarily around the lockdown, I have put many characters together this week, but have also looked at some of the scenes that stood out for me. THE LOCKDOWN SAGA Sookie is still held captive in the institute but is saved by Godric.  As he says the words "My Child" to Eric, he instantly appears at Godric's side to do his bidding. As the lockdown is already in progress, Godric orders Eric to get Sookie out safely where Eric turns to Sookie and says "trust me". Would you trust him! While Eric creates a diversion, by disarming the guards, he takes Sookie to the Sanctuary to escape, but they are confronted by Rev. Steve Newlin and his followers.  It is believed that Godric has has made his escaped so Eric decides to take Godric's place as the sacrifice for the "Holy Bonfire at Dawn". Eric offers himself as the sacrifice if Sookie and Godric are spared as Rev. Newlin has no intention's of letting anyone leave. Rev. Newlin begins to preach to his followers that his family were killed  by vampires thus they must be destroyed (obviously explains why he hates vampires so much). Jason after being shot in last weeks episode by Sarah, it was revealed it was only a paintball gun! Sarah feeling betrayed, she keeps on shooting as revenge can be sweet, hitting Jason in his wedding tackle with a well aimed shot. Paint balls can really packs a punch. Now Sarah also believes he is a Fangbanger and like minded with his sister SookieJason leaves in Sarah's car, leaving her alone in the middle of nowhere. Back at the fellowship outer gates, Jason drives up, looking rather like "RAMBO", portraying himself as a Hitman/Exterminator, gun in hand. He proclaims to the guards that he has been sent for, and that he must be telling the truth as he has his Honesty Ring on! A guard escorts Jason to see Rev. Newlin, but then realizes that it is a paintball gun Jason is holding, so Jason reacts swiftly knocking the guard out. Meanwhile in the hotel room Lorena is still holding on to Bill and now Barry also. Lorena bites Barry and she realizes he is also "special" like Sookie, so she doesn't turn him. Bill seeing his chance to escape, hits Lorena with a plasma TV with enough force to eventually knock Lorena out cold, long enough for him to make his escape with Barry. Bill is next seen entering the lockdown room (which was supposed to be locked). Rev. Newlin holds a gun to Sookie's head, threatening to shoot her and tells his followers to chain Bill with the silver chains. Bill says there will be a massacre and then ....RAMBO enters alias Jason. Paint ball gun still in hand and with such an accurate aim, he shoots the gun out of Rev. Newlin's hand, and just for good measure he shoots a few more including a bullseye to the head. This gives Sookie time to release (the now smoking Eric). Eric being slightly pissed off at being held in chains pins Rev. Newlin to the floor, fangs at the ready! Rev. Newlin announces "go ahead, God will protect me". The sound of thundering people on the move... vampires led by Stan emerge into the room.  Stan tells Rev. Newlin that  "they will murder them all, as they did to his father ". "Destroy all of them" Stan shouts..... so who is starting the WAR now? Before anyone is actually bitten Godric appears and shouts "Enough", and says to Stan  "you came for me underling ?" Yes sheriff he replies. Godric doesn't want to create bloodshed, he wants peace and harmony between humans and vampires. (Godric is too TAME !!)  After trying to make a truce with Rev. Newlin, doesn't he realize that if he is bitten he becomes the creature he most hates! How can God protect him? Godric mocks him, saying "I am actually older than your JESUS, I wish I could have been there, I missed it.... why?"  OH YES, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DAYLIGHT! Godric, mild mannered, young looking boy, go home good people...er Godric where are your FANGS!! Well I saved the best bit for last of the lockdown saga...when Rev. Newlin is confronted by Jason. Rev. Newlin says "you are goin to HELL " to which Jason replies "I've been there, but I've also been to heaven INSIDE your wife."  BRILLIANT!! JESSICA and HOYT Hoyt and Jessica make love for the first time after both confessing to being virgins. While in the throws of passion, Bill bursts in, to which Hoyt says "I don't know what you heard, but they were screams of pleasure". Wouldn't screams coming from a room with a human and a vampire usually mean a vampire meal! Jessica is embarrassed by Bill's sudden arrival, but Bill is only there to warn them to go back to Bon Temps, NOW. When again trying to make love, Jessica realizes as a vampire heals itself, she will remain a virgin forever. SAM Sam asleep in his car is woken by the phone ringing,  "Merlotte's" calling, upon answering it, heavy breathing and then someone hangs up?  Sam gun in hand, returns to Merlotte's, to find Daphne dead, her heart ripped out.  Shocked he covers her with black bin liner bags (well covers her bottom half).  He calls the Sheriff, as there is a knock at the door? Who called the cops? Sheriff Bud Dearborne says it was a anonymous tip off. So now Sam has a dead body in his refrigerator, a motive to kill Daphne, and worse still is upon checking official records, the Sheriff can't find any records that Sam Merlotte even exists!  Is Sam older than the records? Can a shapeshifter be as old as the vampires? Or maybe he just wanted to be somebody else. Andy appears at the doorway, looking rather worse for wear and he tells Sheriff Dearborne that Sam had nothing to do with it. That he is a victim and Andy is a witness. "I saw Sam fighting off the black eyed zombies, with the bulls head there. " Sam can't agree with him for fear of them both been carted off to the mental home. So then Andy truly drops himself in it by saying he saw "the BULLS HEAD, CLAWS, ...WAIT FOR IT .... IN A DRESS!!  Even Andy had to agree it sounds mad. So the Sheriff takes Sam into protective custody. Once in the cells, he spots several Bon Temps characters, upon asking why they are there,  (and this is a beaut of a excuse) I was caught sodomizing a pine tree!! He had scratches on his pecker to prove it !! It begs the question of HOW, WHY, AND IS IT POSSIBLE, HOW DO YOU KNOW WHICH IS THE REAR OF THE TREE! TARA and EGGS Eggs tells Tara that he is having memory lapses again and he feels he did something bad. Yeah Eggs you did something bad!  Maryann was seen earlier frying vegetables, then later cutting up the heart (presumably Daphne's) .  Did Eggs take the heart or did Maryann?  Now Maryann slices the heart, blood everywhere, and fries it. Maryann announces dinner is ready, its "Hunter Souffle" or "Daphne Heart Pie". Tara and Eggs dig in heartily, loving every mouthful, which seems to get bloodier red after each mouthful. Clearly under Maryann's influence again now, what starts out as a playful slap between them, turns into a rough foreplay, and Maryann watches on amused. Why is sex always involved where ever Maryann is? AN AUDIENCE WITH GODRIC The vampires line up to greet Godric at what appears to be a celebration party. Jason passes by Eric "quite the hero " Eric says, but he also knows of his past of using V.  We are even now says Eric with a smile (I love Eric's smile). Is Jason now safe?  Sookie confronts Bill, as to why he didn't come to her rescue earlier and he tells her he was held captive too. Sookie mistakenly thinks it was Eric who had him captive, upon hearing his name, Eric appears at their side. He says "the bond between vampire and his maker is stronger than you can imagine.  Maybe you will find out one day. " The glancing evil look that Bill gave to Eric, does that mean, it's sooner than you think, or she will never be turned? Godric spares Hugo's life because Isobel still loves the human. Lorena is back to claim her man Bill and makes a B line for Sookie when Bill isn't around her.  Bill appears at Sookie's side as Lorena tries to persuade Sookie that it is Lorena he loves.  Realizing that Sookie is feisty, Lorena fangs and tries to attack Sookie. Godric intervenes and she is told to leave the his home and to be escorted by Bill. She confesses again her love for Bill, but he says he never loved her and will never love her.  NEVER is FOREVER in vampire years! TIMEBOMB Well there always has to be one party pooper!  Luke shouts "listen everyone" as he opens his coat, a bomb of silver chains and crosses are attached to his body.  Now will the bomb go off or not?  We will have to wait till the next episode folks. Hope you enjoy my column folks, stop by and leave me a comment. Cheers, Annsarocker
