Dayum, Lafayette cleans up NIIIICE.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

OMG. Bill's vampire child is dumb as the dirt she crawled out of.

Does this mean what's his name Mamma's boy is the killer?

Huh. Guess it's Rene!? That's weird.

Cash, I agree. After all my research last week, finding out that is is Rene seemed fairly anticlimactic. But who knows where the hunt will lead.
I was a bit put off by the uber-soapyness of Bill's return to Sookie's...and the subsequent "If you only knew" pronouncement.
Not that telling her the truth would make her any less self-absorbed, I suppose.
Again, poor Sam. When will he ever learn.
Since I've only listened to the last three books, I'm at a loss over the Michelle Forbes character.
Jessica provided some necessary comic relief and Eric was pretty hot.

Eric was pretty hot.
Totally agree.
I love how Bill was flummoxed by Jessica.
Perhaps vampires wouldn't have to worry about their continued existence if they didn't make STUPID PEOPLE vampires in the first place. Creating annoying brood as a punishment cannot be good for the species.

Absolutely THAT!
After the grand poobah's pronouncement about the superiority of vamps over all other beings, I'm confuzzled as to why they would got to the trouble of making a 'vamper' (I loved the old fellow's pronunciation in this ep) out of that particularly whiny box of hair.
Bill's father knows best exasperation was pretty cute.
I'm also loving Pam's rock solid consistency. She is who she is and she ain't no more. Even Eric seems to waffle with the caring but not her. She ought to have a Buffy-quote tshirt. "I'm paralyzed with the not caring."
One moment in this ep I had to rewind and watch again was Sam's "Yes, I can!" to Sookie's assertion that he could not watch over her 24/7. Perfect delivery...oh so sweet and misguided.
eta: a quibble.
Except for making the fans squee and subsequently squick over Naked!Bill arises...in more ways than one...How is it that this most recent dirt nap sees him fully clothed and, ahem, spotless when Jessica crawled out of the soil?

I was whitefonting speculation. Not 100% sure of the killer's identity. They could still pull a twist.
I thought the same thing about the naked dirt nap, bonny.

In re: whitefonting. I'm a bit paranoid about tripping into the guac, so I err on the side of potential overkill.
