"You better run!" "It's like pouring boiling water on fire ants!" "Hear me, slaves." "Kill the king." "Get the fuck out of here!" "We're your friends." "Eric!" "Must kill the king." " Here comes death." " Let him go!" "Not for me." " Silver." " Bill, please don't." "Don't let her control you." "Fight her." "Go home." "Sookie, go!" "No more!" " What the fuck?" " Broken." "What have I done?" "Oh, no." "Mama, wake up." "Mama, please wake up." "Mama, please wake up, Mama!" "Bill!" " I think he might be" " Get off me." "Marnie." "We have to help these poor people." "Bill, image." "Everybody stay calm." "The fire department and EMTs are on the way." "I myself am a trained, caring and certified first responder." "We didn't do anything wrong." "You sure?" "I'm a free woman." "Hoyt broke up with me, and I broke up with him." "Well, I didn't." "Well, listen to you." "God." "Talk about bromance." "Well, he is my brother." "He was the littlest one in elementary school if I didn't do his fighting for him, those other kids would like to have killed him." "I know." "You've told me and Hoyt's told me many, many times." "In 8th grade, he shot up ten inches." "No muscle yet, no balance at all." "That boy had to walk with a cane for six months." "Somebody had to help him then too, and that was me." "Well, Hoyt walks just fine all on his own now." "Maybe it's time you let him." " You're as bad as Maxine." " Yeah, maybe you're right." "Hey, Jess, you and me...." "This is different." "This will kill him." " Look, I don't want to hurt him either." " It was the blood, ain't it?" "I never would have done it if I hadn't have drank your blood." "Bullshit." "Don't you dare pretend that you didn't want me." "I did want you, and I still do." "But I'll never be able to face him again unless you...." "You want to wipe everything that happened between us tonight right out of your mind?" "You have any idea how that makes me feel?" "Well, I" " I don't know what else to do." "This is for you too." "He'll know about us as soon as he looks at me." "I am not gonna glamour you just because you don't want to feel guilty." "What about my guilt?" "Who's gonna make me forget?" "Fucking humans." "I'm gonna go find somebody to eat." "Hang on." "We'll be at the hospital in five minutes." "A few stitches, little duct tape, pretty nurse, you'll be good to go." " They can't do nothing for me." " Quit talking shit." "It ain't just the beating." "Turning into Sam, it did something." "Shifter to werewolf." "I'm dying." "We gotta try." "Jesus, fuck!" "Take me home." "Please." "Where's home?" "Merlotte's." " Hey, how many bars do you have?" " Four." "No, two again." "One." "I don't have any bars anywhere ever." "My phone sucks." "People, we are locked the fuck up and incommunicado." " Face it." " Magic is not stronger than technology." " Three." "Wait, no, one again." " Damn." "Ma, hello?" "Hello?" "Mom." "I am not gonna die in a Wiccan shit store with them." "I fucking refuse." "There ain't no spell that can't be undone if you got the juice." "Marnie, or Antonia, it's just another witch." "I'm not the fucking ancient, pissed-off witch." "She ain't no more pissed off than I am." " You?" " Yeah." "I got some rage." "We are strong, angry women, Tara." "All we gotta do is force a crack in her wall." "There's an incantation here." "You should have been there." "It was a bloodbath, and we sort of won." "Enough, Roy." " Come on." " Put the vampires inside." " Come on, robots." " Where's the other one?" "Where's tall one?" "Who are they?" " Is anything wrong?" " Yes." "No, no." "Yes." "What's Roy mean?" "What bloodbath?" "You can't hold us prisoner." "Why are you all so ungrateful?" "I am protecting you." "I have put my soul at risk to destroy the night beasts for you." "But at what cost?" "We won't say anything to anybody, we promise." "We will all stay together." "I see it." "Well, I don't see it." "You've been keeping secrets from me." "What's the deal with your dairy maid and her lightning trick?" "We have more important concerns." "There are glamour squads all over Shreveport." "If anything leaks, remember the civil rights movement sweeping social change inevitably accompanied by violence and the appearance of chaos." "That is the spin we'll give it." " Spin doesn't matter now." " Spin always matters." "You are not in charge anymore." "Oh, yes." "Yes, I am." "I raised you to that throne, and I can bring you down in a heartbeat." "This is your fault, all of it." "And that is exactly what I'm gonna tell the Authority." " What are you talking about?" " If you'd let me kill that witch" "If you had any idea of the factions I'm fighting with" "I don't care." "Now, this is what will happen." "We are going after the necromancer and we are taking her out." "By any means necessary." "I remember everything." "Us." "Nothing's changed." "Except you." "I haven't changed." "I'm just more." "The other Eric is still here." "Sookie." "Look at me." "Can't you see him in my eyes?" "Yes." "So, what's the problem?" "Bill." "When you were about to kill him I just couldn't bear the thought of a world without him in it." "I think it was how I was able to stop you." "I love you." "I don't want to lie to you but I can't help it." " I love him too." " How is that possible?" "Sometimes I think it's because you've both given me your blood." "Maybe it's just chemical." "You gave yourself to me completely." " You are mine." " I never promised that." "And you gave yourself to me completely." "Yes, I did." "I love you." "Bill called me." "Are you back?" "Is it you?" "Yes, I'm back." "My God, I missed you." "That fucking sorceress, I thought I'd lost you forever." "How did you get her to break the curse?" "Well, she didn't." "Sookie did." " Well, thanks." " Don't mention it." "Why didn't you summon me the second you were free?" "Hey." "We'll talk about it later." "Sure." "Fine." "Fire killed her 400 years ago." "We can only hope that it works again." "Blowing up Moongoddess Emporium is not a 21 st century solution." " Blowing up Moongoddess?" " You're fucking our agenda up the ass." "Get me off the Greta Van Susteren show." " God, I hate her." " Bill, you can't do this." " Tara and other humans are in there." " Well, they bet on the wrong horse." " It's too bad." " I've summoned Jessica." "We'll secure the windows, silver ourselves and go to ground." " Pam, you'll stay here." " I'm so in." "If Tara hadn't warned me about the hotel Eric would be a zombie and you'd be dead." "My kind is still in danger." "I can't risk potential genocide to save one human just because she's your friend." "Lovable, isn't he?" "At least let me help." "I can" "Last time you helped, you got shot and almost died." "Stay away from there, Sookie." "Tomorrow we're gonna finish Marnie once and for all." " And if innocent people die?" " It's war." "It happens." "No." " No." " Sam." "Okay." "We gotta" " We gotta get him some vampire blood." "No." "No." "No." "He's got a right to choose his time." "Okay." "Okay, okay." "Can't hardly feel nothing now." "Hey, hey." "You fool kid." "Nice." " Well." " It's company." "Don't be afraid." "You know, I'm" "I'm thinking the folks who pass on for a little while and then come back...." "Well, they say it's beautiful over there." "There's books on it." "They all want to stay." "They say it's like going home." "Yeah." "It's all feeling good, and white light, and people who love you." "You really believe that shit?" " Why not?" " Now, could be." "There ain't no heaven and hell's a dogfight." "I'm gonna disappear like I never was." "That's what I want." "Well, won't you be surprised when angels come and lift you up." "Sucker." "Hey." "I'm sorry, Sam." "For everything." "No." "No, nothing was your fault." "And listen, I'm sorry." "I should have been a better brother." "I" "I didn't know how." "You were the best part of my life." "That is so fucking sad." "Sam, he's going." "Don't forget me right away." "Tommy." "Tommy, I'll never forget about you." "You're in my heart, always." "You're my brother." "Tommy." "Hey." "Tommy, listen." "You're loved." "I love you." "Oh, God." "Marcus Bozeman is a dead fucking wolf." "You ain't gonna let me in?" "Oh, well, place is kind of a mess." "I don't give a shit." "What's on?" "I don't know." "Something." "Well, who's playing?" "It's them against them." "Want a beer?" "I had a beer for breakfast, so, what else you got?" "Well, nothing." "Just beer." "I guess I'll have a beer then." "Okay." "You know, that house is...." "It's pretty empty." "It's like too full, too empty, all at once, you know?" "Yeah." "Keep thinking I see her turning the corner." "Or I'll get a whiff of perfume from the pillow." "You know, I washed it a bunch of times, but I can still smell her." "Smells, boy...." "They'll take you right back in time, won't they?" "And she's gone for good." "Thank God." "You know, I'm a lucky man to be out of that mess." "Yeah." "I can't stay at that place, J." "Like, I don't want her back." "But I keep waiting to see her walk through the door like crawl up out of her cubby hole, you know, and...." "All kind of cute and kind of sleepy, you know?" "Don't." "Hey, don't do this to yourself." "I'm cool." "I'm great." "Just let me crash with you for a little while, will you?" "Yeah." "Sure." "No problem." "Bubba." "Hey, don't cry, man." "I ain't crying." "Open your eyes, mister." "V?" "Seriously, V?" "Oh, no." "Wait a minute." "Hey...." " It's not what you think, I" " We have little children." "If one of them got into that-- Oh, dear God in heaven." "After everything we've been through, Andy, I cannot believe you." " There's a safety cap, I think." " That ain't the point!" "Hold on." "What?" "You think it's mine?" "No way." "Come on now." "It's evidence." "Are you gonna let him sit there and bareface lie?" "Hey, that's crossing a line." "Me?" "You are an elected official on illegal drugs." "Yeah?" "Well, this ain't even your house!" "Arlene, go back to bed." " But he" " I" " Okay." " I got this." "Okay." "You ain't coming near my babies until you get yourself straight, Andy." "You got no right to bust into my private bedroom." "I wanted to catch you early and apologize about the awful things I said..." " ...when we were saving Mikey." " Fine." "Leave me alone." "I don't think so." " You and me, we got somewhere to go." " The hell we do." " Where?" " Fort Bellefleur." "Why are you looking at me funny?" "I'm just wondering why you don't have more sympathy for poor Hoyt." "I got more sympathy for that boy than anybody else in the entire world." "But he's either crying or ranting and raving or telling me something he's told me 500 times already." "He won't stop talking about Jessica." "Love doesn't leave in a second if it goes deep." "It takes a long, long time." "Then he drank 11 of my beers." "Passed out and started farting, continuously." "Jason, I did not need to know that." "So can I stay here tonight or not?" "Of course." "But" "I need your help." "If it's got anything to do with vampires, no, thank you." "I'll sleep in my truck." "Bill wants to blow up Moongoddess Emporium and Tara's in there." "Well, he can't do that." "What the fuck for?" "Because of what happened at the Dorchester." "What happened?" "Fuck are we doing here?" "I'm gonna save your goddamn life." " Hanging around our old tree fort?" " Where we come when there's trouble." "When we were kids." "I ain't a kid no more." "You sure?" "Looks like you've been sucking down V like it's mother's milk." " Don't you talk about my mother." " Oh, we're gonna talk about it all today." "This is still your hidey-hole, ain't it?" "For a year after the Marines, you lived up there like an insane squirrel." "You checked up on me." "Brought me groceries, kept the family off my back even when I thought you was an Iraqi insurgent." " Now I'm gonna repay the favor." " Oh, yeah." "That's while you were doing piles of every fucking pill they make not to mention smack, meth and crack." "Did I bust you?" "Hell, no." "Well, I got clean in the long run, now, didn't I?" "No drugs for me, except the anti-psychotics." "Now when I need a little understanding, you hijack me from my own home." "You don't have a home, Andy, any more than I did then." "You live with Grandmama, just like when we was kids." "Fuck you." "V is not like anything else." "It keeps me sharp." "Makes me strong." "It's medicine." " I'm a better man on V." " That's junkie talk, Andy." "I'll give you a chance to prove it." "Don't see something you like, I got the bows and arrows over there." "You crazy fucker." " What's this got to do with me?" " Choose your weapon." "We'll see who's the better man." "This shit is ridiculous." "Vampires are gonna bomb Shreveport?" "They can't glamour the whole fucking city." "Yeah, they can." "It's what they did at the hotel." "We're the only humans who know what went on." " Well, can't the police do anything?" " Like what?" "Put up yellow tape?" "Direct traffic?" "Even a SWAT team's no good against magic." "Besides, those Shreveport boys ain't gonna believe a Bon Temps deputy or an anonymous tip, which we already tried..." " ...and I got laughed off the phone." " Tara." " It's Tara, talk to me." " Voicemail." "Fuck Marnie." "Don't blame her." "She wouldn't have anything to do with this." "Marnie's a victim." "She's trapped." " It's the Spanish spirit." " Whatever." "If she would have let her parakeet rest in peace then Eric Northman and Bill Compton wouldn't be marching on Moongoddess to blow up my only fucking cousin." "Look, I know Marnie better than anyone else." "If I can reach her, she'll help us push Antonia out and send her back to wherever she came from." "It's the only way." "That's Latin, Holly." "I don't speak Latin." "Do you?" "Yeah, I speak Latin." "I need it for my job." "No, I don't." "We're just gonna just have to wing it." "Yeah, but what if we pronounce something wrong and instead of breaking her spell, we start a plague of locusts in here?" "Not gonna lie." " It's a possibility." " Great." "Love it." "See, magic is about energy and intention, and I'm thinking maybe the goddess will know what we mean, even if we say it wrong." "Well, that's a big fucking maybe." "Your attitude is not helpful." "What we need here is some faith." "Well, that's not really my thing." "You burnt the shit out of your hand on a fucking doorknob." "There's a 400-year-old witch and two zombie vampires in the bathroom." "You're telling me you don't have faith in magic?" "It's all around you." "Yeah, but...." "Believe in us, Tara." "Believe in yourself." "Believe that there's something out there that's bigger than us and it's on our side." "Can you do that?" "I am leaving you." "What do you mean?" "We haven't finished our work." " We've barely begun." " I cannot go on, not after last night." "Last night was a victory." "We almost assassinated the king." "One king of one state of one country." "In my time, it was different." "Your world is huge." "It is teeming with these creatures." "And what about the humans?" "All that blood and panic and the screaming...." "It sickens me." "We are no better than our enemies." "Of course we are." "No, we don't torture and kill." "We fight people who do." " This is not who I am." " But it is." "You are a fighter." "You are a great necromancer." "I only turned to necromancy to control death to save my village from fever." "I was a healer." "I saved lives." "I delivered babies with these hands." "I did not come back to shed the blood of the innocent." "But they are not innocent." "They are sympathizers." "They are collaborators." " You hate them." " No, not everybody." "But you have been gone a long time, Antonia." "I don't think you remember what people are really like." "They are cruel, they are bullies, they treat you like a pariah." "They are just, you know, mocking and judging and shunning me when I didn't ask to be what I am." "They did the same to me." "Those people who you healed they watched you burn, and they did nothing." "Have you forgotten that?" "No." "And they watched your agony like it was sport." "They smelled your flesh roasting, and they did nothing" " They couldn't." " They wouldn't." "They thought of nothing but themselves." "But you and I...." "There is a communion of souls." "I know you feel it too." "I know how lonely you've been through the centuries wandering, aching for an end of your exile." "Yes." "Fate brought us together to fight evil." "Did you really think no one was gonna get hurt?" "No." "Don't abandon us." "We need you." " For a life without vampires." " Yes." "My sister." "You'll ruin everything we've worked for all these years." "When I get out of here at dark, your goddamn goose is cooked." "Painful, degrading execution, that's what's in store for you, Bill." "And what's the biggest thermobaric payload?" " We'll take two." " Don't listen to her." "She doesn't know it yet, but it's the end of her time." "What the fuck do you know?" "True death for you too, Northman." "Don't threaten him, you incompetent bitch." "Fuck you." "True death for you too." "I don't care what happens as long as I get to kill shit." "The price is irrelevant." "If everything is ready to go by sundown." "Don't know about you guys, but this place gives me the creeps." "And where is everybody?" "I feel some bad juju." "Antonia cleared out the whole neighborhood?" "It's a repelling spell." "Glad to know I'm not just chickenshit." " Hey, who's in there?" " Bunch of people." " Hard to tell them apart." " Find Tara." "She'll be the loudest." "Drag her in a cage and beat her ass good." "She's there, and she's mad." " Pissed off, like usual." "That's a good sign." " You guys wish me luck." "Wait." "What?" "Are you really gonna try to do the Mavis move?" "In principle." "Antonia doesn't sound lost or confused and she sure doesn't look like she wants to leave." "But I gotta save Marnie, and I'm irresistible, right?" "I don't like it." "You're walking into the mystical un-fucking-known." "This isn't my first time or my second time, and it won't be my last." " That don't make it right." " All right, guys." "You know what?" " I'll go." " No, Jason." "Why not?" "I'm the law." "And I can lie." "I can fight." " I can run like the fucking wind." " But you aren't magic." " Everything will be okay." " Hey." " See you soon." " Yeah." " Sookie, listen for me." " I will." " Careful, man." " Cuidate, baby." " Oh, shit." " Fuck." "What's going on?" "Hey." "Wait, wait." "Jesus." "Lafayette wouldn't have let him come alone." "Reinforcements." "Get down." "Hey, she walked out." " She didn't get burnt." " Get out my way." " No." "No." " You idiots, no." "This is incredible." "What power." " It's a simple protection spell." " Marnie?" " Antonia." " My name is" "I know who you are." "Marnie and I share everything." " Then you know I'm her friend." " Are you?" "Where have you been?" "We needed you." "Mexico." "It was an emergency." "My grandfather's very sick." "I'm so sorry." "I should have told you before I left..." " ...but I came back as soon as I could." " Marnie trusts you." " We trust each other." " I'm a little harder to convince." "Tell me what I have to do." "Come to me." "Through the wall?" " Antonia." " We have enough weak links in our circle." "If you can't do it I have no use for you." " Can he do it?" " Calling this off." "Hey." "Get down." "Fuck." "Fuck." "He wants to keep trying." "I can hear him." "What the fuck's happening with his head?" "It's a Latin thing." "Welcome back." "Why don't you know where your old man's at?" "I mean, he's the type to check in every five minutes." "Once upon a time." "He didn't come home last night, and I ain't heard from him all day." "It's how he treats me now." "I'd tell you if knew." "Well, I appreciate that." "What do you want him for?" "We're in the need of a frank discussion." " You don't like him." " Different philosophies." "Him and me, we've got the same problem." "Really?" "Yeah, I just wanna be normal, you know, run with my pack hunt have kids." "Alcide likes it on his own, as you know." "He doesn't want kids." "Well, that don't make sense." "I mean, my little girl, she makes life worth living." "Yeah, I'd give anything for a baby." "He says it's too hard to be a wolf these days." "He doesn't want to put a child through it." "What total bullshit." "That's funny." "That's what I said." " I don't know what to do about it." " Sure you do." "You hook up with a different wolf." "I'm just about ready." " Marcus!" " He ain't here." "If you're lying, I'll shoot you between the eyes." "It's the truth." "Now get out before somebody gets hurt." " Somebody did get hurt." " Alcide, you got your wires crossed." " We're pack." " Somebody got killed." " I don't know." " Somebody got beat to death." "Four on one." "And you're one of the fucking four." " You murdered my brother." " Christ." "For what?" "For what?" "We weren't trying to murder him." "We were just kicking the shit out of him." "Don't let him shoot." " I told you to stop." "You wouldn't listen." " Marcus is the one I really want." "Right now, I'll settle for you." " Good shot." " Shut the fuck up." " Want the AK?" " I don't need a AK to hit a paint can." "Looks like you do." "Reload." "This don't prove nothing." "I ain't been to the range in a while." "That's all." "Are we done?" "Can we go?" " Nope." " What do you want?" "Admit you're a fucking drug addict." "You want to humiliate me." "You always did." "Bullshit." "I was the humiliated one." "Bullshit." "The second you were born, I fell off the face of the earth." " I don't remember it that way." " You were a baby, stupid." "Don't call me stupid." "Everybody in the family's like, "Look at little Terry." "He's so cute, he's so sweet."" "My mama knit you booties when she should have been knitting for me." " You were too old for booties." " I wasn't too old for socks." "She could have knitted me socks or a sweater." "That ain't the way it was." "Then you got bigger, and they were like, "Terry, he's so good-looking." "He's a track star." "He's gonna make the Bellefleurs proud." Nobody said a word about me." "Well, words don't put food on the table." "You wouldn't know about that, would you?" "What are you saying?" "You ate at our house." ""Here, Terry, take the best piece of meat and a few of Andy's shirts while you're at it."" "You think I wanted to wear your hand-me-down shirts that didn't fit?" "Wasn't bad enough, my daddy died in Vietnam." "My mama left me for a Yankee race car driver." " You took shit away from me my whole life." " We didn't have any money." "You all had it all and never gave us nothing, no matter how bad we needed it." "Only reason I went into the Corps was college, and now I'm too fucked up to go." "You fucking had it all." "It was Grandmama's money, you asshole, not mine." "Now it's gone." "Good." "That's what you fucking deserve." "Yeah, but I'm a sheriff, and you're only a fry cook, so I fucking win." " Son of a bitch." " Motherfucker." "Fuck you, Terry." "Easy." "Shit." "You shouldn't have been able to breach my boundary." "Did you acquire some new abilities in your travels?" "I think I did." "And you have a demon to serve you." "Yeah, I don't know." "I was hoping to get with Marnie so we could figure it out together." "I usually come to her with all my questions." "We spent an entire year talking about magic and everything else." "You were her most faithful ally." "I still am." "If our circle were stronger we would be able to exterminate those vampires so much more easily." "Your friend, the Moor, is he gonna join us again?" "He has a gift." "The Moor?" "Lafayette?" "Oh, Antonia, no." "I tried." "He's just really scared." "But if you let us out of here for a little while..." " ..." "I can probably bring him around." " Impossible." "That protection spell is our strongest defense." "For now." "I understand." "I wonder...." "I don't want to be rude." "Ask." "You have nothing to fear from me." "Can I speak with Marnie, please?" " I speak on behalf of both of us." " I know." "But she's my friend and my teacher." "I miss her, and it would be nice to say hello in person." "Just for a minute." "You are a very kind man." "So rare." "I'm not surprised that Marnie cares for you." " Jesus." " Marnie?" " I thought you'd abandoned me." " Never." " Are you okay?" " Yeah." " I am magnificent." " Are you sure?" "Well, can't you tell?" "You ever seen me looking so happy?" "All due respect, you're, like, possessed." "What, you think this is against my will?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "I just assumed." "Oh, of course." "How could you possibly comprehend?" "No, no, no." "Here." "Feel my vibrations the way I taught you." "Do you see?" "Do you see?" "Don't you feel our strengths?" "Her desires are my desires her ambitions my ambitions, her enemy is mine." "I am in control." "This is not possession, this is union." " That's great." " Yeah." "Come on." "Let me show you." "We've got our own vampires in the ladies room." "Sookie, the game has changed." "Shit." "Shit." "Marnie is behind this now." "Marnie is behind this now." "What?" "Marnie is behind this now." "What?" " Did that bitch do something to him?" " Marnie's flipped sides." " She's running this show." " Fuck." "It's marvelous." "They'll do anything I want." "They'll slaughter their friends, kill each other eat chocolate, go to the beach." "Treachery." "Sookie, get out of here!" " Something's up." "Jesus says run." " Then we should run?" " We can't leave them." " Hell, no." "Tara." "Hurry!" " Run!" " Where's Jesus?" "Sookie." "Sookie!" "No." "God." " Say you give up and you won't do V." " I give up." "I'll never do another drop again." "Please, I'm so scared." "I'm seeing things." " You look like a monster." " It's me." "Don't worry." "It's only me." "At least your visions ain't real." "Stuff I see, it all happened." "You've been through so much." " I ain't got no excuse." " I ain't judging you." "Plenty of men come back from war and don't live in a tree house." "I'm so ashamed of myself I can't stand it." "I don't wanna be who I am." "Bringing V into a house with children how could I do that without even thinking about it?" "What if it's ate my soul?" "This is what rock bottom feels like, son." "There's nothing wrong with you deep inside." "You're crying, Andy." " Men without souls do not cry." " Are you sure?" "Hell, yeah, I'm sure." "Here." "Who knows you better than me?" "Nobody." "Not a person on this earth." " You know I'll help you any way I can." " Yeah." " I love you, cousin." " I love you too." "I'll pull the truck around." "Fort Bellefleur." "I ought to spend more time here." "I can see why you come back to the tree house." "Always was a good place to think." "When Daddy died, when Mama left this is where I went." "Heading for home." "I'm not gonna relapse." " Gonna be a real uncle to your kids." " I know you are." "And you're gonna take your first steps as a free man tonight..." " ...when you walk all the way home." " What?" "Lock up the guns, sheriff." "See you at the dinner table." "Terry." "Terry!" "Goddamn it."
