True Blood Recap: Forget-Me-Not

Time for a HILARIOUS loving scene between the two Sam’s.

palpable chemistry.

Luna might be dying… from the gunshot, or weird shifting related powers? Do we know why we shifted yet? Did Captured Hick poison her before Sam got him? Is this scene supposed to be moving, because it’s just weird. At the end, Luna shifts back into herself finally, after Sam kisses her forehead. I think it’s because she’s dying, though.

Hoyt never made it to get help, because he’s been lost. He is wandering in the middle of nowhere, after all. A truck pulls over and he sees what he calls “a friendly face,” but then they pull an old style silver revolver on him. Whaa? Is it one of the hicks? I wouldn’t think he’d greet them so easily.

Lame Vamps

It’s still vampire mardis gras for the Lilith drinkers.

who needs tits, though???

Well, except for Eric. I called it; the reverend is giving Russel a lap dance. They are celebrating the Lilith sighting: “May I say.. god has the most beautiful tits I’ve ever seen!” Love Russell. He believes now.. he got to see magical Lilith, and drink a bride while listening to You Light Up My Life. It’s the dream! Creepy burn face guy, Nigel, celebrates killing a child for the first time in years. Great. They’re all born-again! They take Lilith’s appearance as a sign that they’re on the right path – away from mainstreaming.

my friends and i + plus lots of weed + lots of spaghetti.

Salome even agrees to order Nigel a baby to eat: “I want a baby. Lilith wants me to eat a baby.”

In a sweet turn of events, Eric is the wet blanket instead of Bill! He knows, from his Godric visitation, that what they’re doing is wrong. He still doesn’t even believe in Lilith. He leaves the celebration, but Bill sticks around.

We get some hints of Bill’s old wet blanket self when Salome wants him to eat the mother of a four month old baby. He refuses… at first. (Dude! First of all, nobody is that skinny or with that small boobs four months after birthing a child. Maybe she adopted. Second of all, Nigel is probably eating her baby right now, which is awful.) Bill doesn’t want to eat a mommy, seeing as he’s a daddy. This begs the question – why didn’t Bill turn his children?

FLASHBACK TIME! Yes! It’s Bill, visiting his daughter Sarah, on her deathbed. She straight-up asks him to turn her so she doesn’t have to die. The whole “immortality is a curse” thing isn’t that convincing when you’re about to die, especially young. Bill looks all morally conflicted and stuff, but I guess he doesn’t turn her.

trapped for eternity… with this face.

About

first thing's first: the origin of "mcweanis."

It is not because I have a giant weanis (look it up) although it is usually unusually bulbous and crusty.

it is in fact because as a child i was dubbed Weanie (it rhymes with my first name, because i'm awesomely named)  by my older sister Drunk, which my friends co-opted and which eventually evolved into weanis and finally mcweanis or MC weanis depending on how gangster i am at the time.

i am a huge nerd of all kinds, especially tv, books, and school. i'll be going to harvard law school in the fall cause i'm so SCHMANCY! i plan to put my excellent time management skills to work in balancing my courseload and my must-watch-tv-load.

    It was a reference to Elliot Smith because that’s the song they played over the ending credits….I was so confused when that Gotye song came out because “Somebody I Used to Know” is my favorite Elliot Smith song and people kept asking me if I had heard the Gotye version and I was like what, no that’s an Elliot Smith song who the heck are you talking about?? Lol I also never listen to the radio anymore so I was a little behind.
    Nice recap, I’m curious when will Tara, Sookie and Lafayette finally meet again and will Tara take any revenge or will they forgive each other?? Yet another storyline from the TB writers that just kind of developed and then died lol

    So I can answer some of your questions, Yayyy for HBO GO and my obsession with Twitter!

    Luna, like Tommy, is a Skinnwalker, if you remember a Shifter becomes a Skinnwalker by killing a relative. Tommy killed his and Sam’s parents, Luna’s mother died during childbirth. Nevertheless, Shifting into someone else is very painful and very dangerous, you vomit a lot and run a high fever. Luna turned into Sam because Sam told her to sit tight and look pretty. He was in Luna’s head and when she got angry in the bathroom it’s harder to control a Shift so Luna Shifted into Sam. Also, Shifters don’t heal fast so this is affecting Luna’s injuries as well. I’d be surprised if they killed her because they might as well have done it when they shot her in the first place.

    I don’t have any answers as far as Don Bartlo goes although I think he was preventing Jesus from being a spirit and being able to talk to Lafayette so that Lafayette would go to Don Bartlo and have his Brujo powers back. I’m glad some plots have finally merged!

    I was really hoping the vampire that killed Sookie’s parents would be Bill! It would just be so ironic and so tragic!

    The werewolf storyline is about to pick up because Alcide’s father is going to show up! Alcide is going to have to take the pack back from Russell, I mean JD lol! So that’s how those plots will come together.

    I don’t think Hoyt’s mama intended to have the hate group kill all Supes. She likes Sam, although she come to think of it she probably doesn’t know Sam is a Shifter.

    I’m curious what will happen with Bill going all Sanguinista because in the previews Eric all sensitive and morally asks what will happen to Sookie and then it cut to a scene of Bill and Sookie getting it on, Bill is a tool!

    As far as the title of the episode and the music, the Goyte song was originally intended but by the time the episode was going to air the song was super overplayed but they had a back up and that was to use the Elliot Smith song, which worked just a nicely.

    And finally to sum up this super long post it should be noted Stephen Moyer made his directorial debut in this episode and he did a fantastic job! Thanks for the recap, though a little Alcide would have be appreciated but I can understand others not wanting to get in trouble at work. I read your recaps on my phone so I avoid that problem ;-P

    In the books, there was a werewolf turned vampire, and he was rejected by both groups and killed himself. Weres rejected him because he was no longer able to shift and vamps rejected him because he was originally a were. Kinda sad. Just made me think of that with the comment about Sam and his brother.

    And here I figured they had Luna shift into Sam because Sam Trammell is a natural mimic and really funny when he plays other actors playing him. I love him as Tommy as Sam, too.

    McWeanis, where’s muh picture of ALCIDE?!?!?! :) Seriously, that man tossing her on the bed and going at it was HOT!!! Thank you, DVR! And whoever got you in trouble for good nudity is wrong and needs to be taken to Pam’s dungeon! :)

    This was a really good episode – I loved Russell flirting during the meeting and Salome’s annoyance. I loved Lafayette telling off bitches, and I love Pam and her “mothering” skills.
