"At the rate she's decomposing, she can't be much of a threat." "At least not for long." "What else?" "Sookie." "Tell her I was born the night she found me." "And because of her," "I went to my true death knowing what it means to love." "Tell her, "Thank you."" "ERIC:" "She still cares for you." "I saw it last night."
