True Blood Season 2 Episode 3 We Are Moving Along Fast-Paced!

by Joseph Archibald

Now we are onto the third episode of Season 2 True Blood, the production by Alan Ball for HBO television. Doesnt time fly by! Sookie, strangely enough, is the one to get attacked. This time not by vampires but by a stranger creature with what looks to be a human body with a bulls head. She is infected by some form of poison but is cured by a knowledgeable doctor.

After Sookie is healed she finds out by reading Gingers mind, that Lafayette is being kept against his will in Eric the vampires basement. Sookie then sets off to find Lafayette.

Sookie confronts Eric about this and shows him her irritation (to say the least!) and manages to negotiate with Eric to let Lafayette go free. In return she will help to locate Erics friend ” Godric in addition to getting $10,000 from Eric. Nice deal Sookie! Will Eric keep his promise and leave Lafayette alone?

Whats going down with Jason Stackhouse? Is he coming to his senses and is he going to walk away from the camp from hell? Sarah asks him to come to dinner and he happily accepts. Whats going to go on there then we have to wonder?

Hoyte and Jessica are finally getting it together. Jessica meets up with him in Merlottes and gets all nervous about the occasion but is comfortable with her being a vampire. Jessica takes Hoyte back to Bills house after supper to play wii. Bill returns however and gets mad.

Tara asks MaryAnn why Sam Merlotte hates her so much. As if the devious MaryAnn is going to tell her the truth. We can only hope that Tara takes Sookies offer up and moves out of MaryAnns place to go live with Sookie.

Sam is meanwhile treating Daphne like trash and decides to head out for a run. He ends up going for a swim in the local lake and Daphne follows him. Just as she is stripping off her attire we wee on her back some bad scratches. Hmmm, what are those? Maybe Daphne is the bull/human who earlier on attacked Sookie?

If you are familiar with Charlaine Harris books then youll recognize the deviation from the original story line. If you did read them and enjoyed them, then I wonder if you are enjoying True Blood quite as much?

On the other hand, having seen the previews for the next episode, perhaps Im being a bit harsh here. Lets hope then that the previews live up to their promise and we are indeed treated to some real pleasures still to come!
