The Excitement Grows in True Blood Season 2 Episode 3
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.
Once Sookie is cured of her ills, she finds out that Lafayette is being held in Eric Northman, Sookies ex boyfriend. She sets off in earnest to find out Lafayettes where-abouts and hopefully to get him released too.
On seeing Eric, Sookie then lashes out at him showing she is not afraid of him and also showing she actually doesnt like him much. Eric then decides to free Lafayette in exchange for Sookies help in finding his friend, and he also gives her $10,000 to further encourage her.
Is Jason Stackhouse coming to his senses now after his time at the camp from hell? The wacko Sarah however, who is desperate to bed him, convinces stupid Jason that vampires are evil. Not that he needed too much convincing. Sarah invites Jason for dinner at her families place to hopefully brainwash him that bit more, which will not be difficult to do.
Jessica is finally having some joy with Hoyte and meets him in Merlottes diner. Hoyte gets all nervous with her and is very comfortable that she is actually a vampire. After dinner, Jessica takes Hoyte to Bills house to play some wii but when Bill returns home he goes mad, so again, we are left wondering whats going to happen to poor Hoyte.
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!
