True Blood Recap: Who Are You Really?
It picks up right where season 5 left off with the rise of
Billith. Eric and Sookie barely escape into an elevator, and Billith goes ape
shit trapping them inside. Sookie’s microwave fingers and Eric’s vampire
strength are no match for the elevator.
Nora, Jason, Jessica, Pam and Tara form a rag tag team, none
too pleased to be stuck together. They don’t know Nora, and they are all leery
of one another.
Luna makes Sam promise to keep Emma, and dies. No time to
shed tears though, they’re still being pursued.
After an explosion, Jason and Pam worry about their loved
ones, but Nora keeps them moving, because there is nothing they can do for them
at the moment. Eric arrives, the perpetual white knight and off they go on his
black stalli…er SUV. Jessica inquires about Bill, but Sookie only shakes her
head. The group watches as a bloody Billith emerges from the flame and takes
flight.
Cue the intro music…
The group worries about the bloody “naked evil Superman,” as
they listen to the governor of Louisiana declare to protect the humans of the state,
not the vampires on the radio. Without Tru Blood factories, human deaths are on
the rise. Vampires are to remain indoors or underground until sunrise. All
vampire establishments are to be closed, and all citizens are encouraged to
stock up on wooden bullets. The war
against vampires is declared and Jason is the only one in the car happy about
it. Nora sees the error of their past ways, how their actions directly caused
this catastrophe and Pam finally learns that Nora is Eric’s sister. Eric tells
Pam to stand at his back, or move out of the way. Eric asks Nora if there is
anything in the book of Lillith that could explain what they saw. Nora wants to
destroy Lillith at all costs, which breaks Jessica’s heart at the realization
that means the death of Bill. Jason can’t
be Jessica’s shoulder to cry on. He’s still full of vampire hate due to his
parents’ ghosts messing with his head. And Tara tries to comfort Pam, though
she claims to not want it. Pam loves Eric, and the more he pushes her away the
more pissed she’s become. Sookie offers Jessica some comfort. She tells her she
saw Bill die, and be reborn into something else. Without Bill, Jessica fears
she’s alone, but she isn’t. Sookie tells her she’s there for her. Nora wishes
to speak to Jason, but Eric insists that Jason knows little, but he knows about
Warlow. Nora brain rapes him into telling her about Warlow, and Jason pulls a
gun on Nora. Eric taunts Jason, but Nora doesn’t actually know Warlow. He was a
disciple of Lillith, and Sookie sides with the vampires as Jason continues to
threaten to shoot the vampires, and let’s face it Jason is acting bat shit
crazy. Jessica gets summoned by Bill, and she tries to resist him, but is
unable to. Eric physically stops her, and the results aren’t pretty. She vomits
blood all over him, as the summoning tries to rip her apart. As she writhes in
pain Sookie tells Eric to let her go, afraid it’s going to kill her. Eric tells
Pam to take her progeny to Fangtasia, and he and Nora take flight, following
Sookie and Jessica.
Alcide eats the flesh of JD to cement his claim as
packmaster. Danielle offers herself to Alcide, and everyone begins stripping
down and wolfing out.
Andy sits outside. Arlene gives him an earful about his
Fairy babies. Andy admits he doesn’t know how to care for his babies, and has
all the fears a new dad has. Arlene softens hearing his fears, and tells him
there although there are bad times, being a parent is the greatest of joys. Terry
and Arlene give diapering advice, and the baby in Andy’s arms screams, not
easing his fears in the least.
Sam returns to Merlotte’s with a sleeping Emma in his arms. Something
seems amiss, as he investigates he finds Lafayette is protecting the place. He questions
the blood covering Sam, and is less than forth coming. Lafayette tries to drink
away the memories. He knows that Luna was Steve Newlin, and he’s not the only
one. It was all caught on film, and Emma tells him that her mama’s dead.
Lafayette takes on the role of caretaker, and makes Emma something to eat,
after swearing to keep Sam’s secret. Poor Sam has a little bit of a breakdown.
Jason hitchhikes, and is picked up by none other than a
mysterious Rutger Hauer. He figured no one would pick him up covered in blood,
but Rutger tells him, that a little blood never scared him. When Jason tells
him where he’s going, Rutger knows of the town. He tries to get Jason to open
up about his family, and open up he does.
Jessica and Sookie reach Bill’s residence, and find Billith’s
bloody footprints everywhere. Armed with only sticks they follow the prints. Finally
finding him out back dressed in a chair. Nora does a fly by and gets tossed
into the rail, followed by a flying Eric who comes in hot with a stake, but
Bill catches him before he can use it, forcing Sookie to stake Bill. He pulls
the stake from his chest, intent on talking. He retracts his fangs and beckons
Eric to do the same. He tells them that he means them no harm, but if they
attack him again he will retaliate. He is Bill Compton, but he is also
something more. He promises that the man that put the fear in their eyes is
gone. Sookie tells him that she felt Bill die, and that if he means what he
says that he should leave. Jessica turns feral in protection of her maker and
tells them to leave. And with Bill adding his menace to hers, leave they do.
The senator meets with Miss Suzuki at a bottling plant. He
wishes to partner with the Tru Blood owners. She doesn’t quite trust him, as
they serve very different “people.” He offers her the bottling facility free of
charge until their facilities are up and running, anonymously of course. He hopes
with an alternative blood supply the vampires will fall back in line, and she
agrees to the deal.
Alcide shifts back, and Danielle isn’t far behind. Rikki
catches the two in a liplock, and stakes her claim on Alcide, but instead of
sending Danielle away she calls her back and gives her an even more passionate
kiss than she gave Alcide before making Danielle fall to her knees and
pleasuring Alcide. An Alpha bitch has just been established, Rikki is willing
to share as long as she’s number one.
Pam brought Tara back to Fangtasia as she was told. Tara’s
dislike of Eric hasn’t changed any and she doesn’t understand the relationship
between Pam and Eric. The more Tara pushes, the harder Pam pushes back. Pam
mocks her and her idyllic thoughts about their newfound relationship. She and
Tara were only together a night, whereas Pam and Eric were together a 100
years. Eric being an ass isn’t going to change all that was built between them
in that time. The club comes under raid, and when Pam tries to use her charms
against the swat team it backfires. Tara tries to stand up for her maker,
against Pam’s wishes and gets shot in the gut for her effort.
Eric offers Sookie his fortune to help her go into hiding,
but she tells him that it won’t matter, she’s had lots of Bill’s blood so he
could find her where ever she went. Eric tells her he never expected her to
save him from Bill, and to stake him no less. She doesn’t quite know who she is
anymore, and he tells her she’ll always be that girl in the white dress that
first walked into his bar. Which elicits more than an awwww, Sookie always
brings out the softer side of Eric. He gives her back her home, written in his
blood and promises to send the proper paperwork later. She tells him that she
wants to be that girl again as she rescinds her invitation into her home. Eric
doesn’t try to resist, only softly says a goodbye. Nora decides that Bill must
be dealt with and wishes to use Sookie against Bill, but Eric warns her against
it. Sookie isn’t just Bill’s weakness, and Nora realizes for the first time
that Eric loves her too.
Andy’s little fairies are growing rapidly. Extremely rapidly
scaring the heck out of Andy, when a toddler daughter awakens him.
Bill warms some Tru Blood for Jessica, and things almost seem
like normal until Jessica drops her cup. He uses his mind to save the cup and
its contents. She asks him if he knew he could do that, and he admits he did
not. Jessica confesses that he almost tore her apart when he summoned her and that
she feared what she would find. Bill tells her that he isn’t a monster, that he
doesn’t want to be one but he doesn’t understand his powers or why he’s there.
He doesn’t want to be evil, but he needs her to help him stay good, to tell him
the truth when things start to get bad. Jessica willingly takes on the job to
ensure his redemption. Seriously, we’re redeeming Bill again.
Jason continues to spill his guts, worrying that he’s been
too hard on Sookie, that his dead parents are making him racist and crazy. Rutger
tells him that he can’t keep Warlow away from Sookie, and only then does Jason
figure out that something isn’t right with this picture. Turns out Rutger Hauer
is none other than Warlow. Jason tries to grapple with Warlow in the car, but
Warlow simply disappears, leaving Jason in a careening car.
Bill has some sort of awful acid flashback, interrupting his
reading. Hearing his name, he follows the sounds finding a blood covered
Lillith. Not just one, but three, and the three converge into him.
