Bill feeding Sookie his blood. She wakes up.
"Sookie." Bill said
Sookie sits up.
"You fucking betrayed me again." Sookie said
"I only pretended to betray you so that I could save your life again. And it worked. Russell is gone." Bill said
Sookie walked towards her sister. Pam gives her the key. She ripped the duct tape off of her mouth. She hugged her sister.
"I need to get Eric." Maria said
Maria stopped hugging her sister.
"He's bound himself by silver to the king. Was the only way to kill him." Bill said
"No." Maria said
Maria shaking her head. She walked towards the door but Bill blocked her.
"It's what best." Bill said
"Get out of my way." Maria said
"Russell has to die." Bill said
"Russell can die. But I am not letting Eric sacrificing himself for any of us." Maria said
Maria shoves Bill out of the way. She goes out and her sister follows. Both of them approaches to Eric and Russell.
"Eric, this is just stupid." Maria said
"Go away." Eric said
"I'm not going to watch and sacrifice yourself. (Maria looked at her sister.) Can you blast one of those cuffs?" Maria asked her sister
"I don't know how." Sookie said
Sookie use her hand to activate her power to break Eric's cuff. Nothing is happening.
"Don't think about it. Don't try. I will not surrender to the true death. I will find a way to come back and kill your sisters precious Viking and your brooding Mr. Compton and his unbearable progeny and anyone you ever cared about, and all because you didn't use your fucking power! (Sookie blast Eric's cuff with her power.) Well, it's about fucking time. Now drag me the fuck inside." Russell said
Sookie blasted Russell, flew against the wall, and fell down on the ground.
"You watch your fucking language." Sookie said
"Sookie help me." Maria said
Maria and her sister help carry Eric back inside and put him on the table.
"He needs blood. Human blood. He's too weak to drop fang." Pam said
"You don't have to worry about that. (Maria grew her claws and scratched her arm. She feeds Eric her blood.) You're going to be ok." Maria said
Eric was healing fast. He wakes up and gets up.
"Where's Russell?" Eric asked them
"Outside." Maria said
"We have to bring him in." Eric said
"Are you insane? Why?" Bill asked Eric
'Godric appeared to me and asked me to spare Russell." Eric said
"You are insane." Bill said
"Sookie... Maria?" Eric said
"Are you crazy?" Maria asked Eric
"Eric, do the world a favor and let that little fuck fry." Pam said
"I'll go out there myself." Eric said
"Son of a bitch. (Maria gets some chains and goes back outside to save Russell.) I'm here to save you." Maria said
"Ah, thank you, Miss Stackhouse." Russell thanking Maria
Maria punched Russell in the face.
"Fuck you." Maria said
Maria wrapped the chain around Russells neck and dragged him back inside. Eric grabbed him and put him in a choke hold on the pole.
"You're a fool not to kill him." Bill said
"Killing him won't solve anything." Eric said
"No, but it would keep him from killing us." Sookie said
"Oh, he won't be doing any more killing." Eric said
"Eric, who the fuck are you right now? He killed your family. Rip off his fucking head." Pam said
"Do not listen to them. I shall reward you handsomely." Russell said
"Well, that's humiliating. I'll take that." Eric said
Maria helps Eric wrap chains around Russell tightly. Russell looked at Sookie.
"Don't even think about it, bitch." Sookie said
"Are you kidding me? It's all I'll think about ever again." Russell said
Russell smiles.
"We should go to ground. You stay here and watch him." Eric said
"Sure." Maria said
"Ginger's coming in later. He would glamour her in a heartbeat. Pam, make one of the guest coffins available for Mr. Compton." Eric said
"I'm staying out here. Bill said
"Suit yourself." Eric said
"Eric?" Maria said
"Yeah?" Eric said
"We need to talk when this is over." Maria said
"Ok." Eric said
"Maria has my back. I'll be fine. And I don't want to look at your face, or any of your faces, for that matter. Go crawl back into your holes, you creepy, cold freaks." Sookie said
Eric on the phone.
"It's Eric Northman. I'm gonna need your van and your help tonight. (Eric looked at Maria and Sookie.) Do not stake him." Eric said
Few hours later.
"I'd like to propose a deal." Russell said
"Oh. This ought to be good." Sookie said
"I will not harm either of you." Russell said
"Your word's is full of crap. What else?" Maria asked Russell
"One million dollars." Russell said
"Money means nothing. What else?" Maria asked Russell
"How about a choice of killing two lying boyfriends. Maybe your Eric Northman or your fairy sister boyfriend Bill Compton." Russell said
"Actually changing the deal. Meaning we'll take your house." Maria said
"Done." Russell said
"What do we have to do in return?" Sookie asked Russell
"Release me." Russell said
"No." Sookie said
Maria shakes her head.
"It may not be me, but someday some vampire is gonna rip you open to get at the essence inside of you. There is no way around that. You don't know what it is to drink your blood. It is paradise. Arcadia. Nirvana. Who even knows what your blood is capable of? Heh. I am surprised that your Mr. Compton has showed such restraint. He is either a true gentleman or very, very smart." Russell said
"Smart, why?" Sookie asked Russell
"By showing such a degree of control he's able to make the experience last that much longer. That's basic tantra. But others won't be able to stop themselves. They'll drain you dry, which is a shame, really. But the rose only blooms for a short while, I suppose." Russell said
Maria punched Russell in the face.
"That's enough out of you." Maria said
"You better hope to God I die..." Russell said as Sookie cuts him off
Sookie holds an urn of blood in it.
"Why are you carrying this around?" Sookie asked Russell
"He was the love of my life." Russell said
"This couldn't be him." Maria said
"It will be." Russell said
"You think you can bring him back to life?" Sookie asked Russell
"Of course not." Russell said
"Yes, you do. Somehow, involving my blood. Fuck you." Sookie said
Sookie and her sister walked to the sink. Sookie pours the remaining of his lovers blood in the sink and sister turn the suspenser on.
"NO!" Russell shouted
Maria reading, Sookie is waiting, and Ginger making Maria a peanut butter sandwich. She served it to her.
"Thanks, Ging." Maria thanking Ginger
Ginger walked towards Sookie.
"You sure you're not hungry? I could make you a peanut butter sandwich." Ginger said
"No, thanks Ginger." Sookie said
Ginger walked away. Maria smelled something when she put her book down. Alcide comes in.
"Could you please not do that?" Russell asked Alcide
Maria ran towards Alcide and hugged him. She stopped hugging him.
"How did you know that..." Sookie asked Alcide
"I'm here because Eric called me. Said he needed my help with something. Promised to settle all my dad's debts." Alcide said
"Oh." Sookie said
"In trouble again?" Alcide asked both Stackhouse sisters
"No. How's Janice?" Maria asked Alcide
"My whole family's okay, knock on wood. Debbie's gone missing, though. I've been thinking about you. A lot." Alcide said to Sookie
"That's nice, I guess." Sookie said
"I even had a couple dreams about you." Alcide said
"Alcide." Sookie said
Maria hands both of them two beers.
"No. I'm just saying, it sure is good to see you again. I'd have hated if we never saw each other again." Alcide said
"Don't, okay? Don't be such a good guy right now." Sookie said
"I can't help it if I'm a good guy." Alcide said
"Yet every full moon, he turns into a wolf and kills and eats his prey. A Stackhouse right here. Not even a Stackhouse won't eat anything live." Russell said
Alcide and Maria looked at Russell at a pissed off mood.
"Rabbits and squirrels, not people." Alcide said
"I'm a friendly tiger, dumbass and I sure as hell don't eat people." Maria said
"Details." Russell said
Eric, Pam and Bill arrive.
"Good, you're here. Your truck out front?" Eric asked Alcide
"Yup." Alcide said
"Let's go. Got a lot to do." Eric said
"Sookie, stay here." Bill said
"Actually she's coming home. Eric as soon as you get done with your work." Maria said
"I know. We need that talk." Eric said
"I rescind the invitation to my house for all vampires present." Sookie said
Alcide smiles. Both Sookie and her sister leaves.
Bon Temps.
Stackhouse Residence.
Tara goes downstairs with her haircut. Sookie and her sister arrived. Both of them looked Tara.
"Oh, my God. I love it." Sookie said
"You look amazing." Maria said
"Really? I just needed to make a change." Tara said
"People needed a change." Maria said
"Change is good." Sookie said
"Feels like forever since we just hung out." Tara said
"It has been forever." Sookie said
"I've been such a bitch." Tara said
"Hey, don't beat yourself up, not after everything you've been through." Sookie said
"Trying to be there for you." Maria said
"I know. You two are basically my sisters. Speaking of, what the hell happened up in your bedroom?" Tara asked Sookie
"You don't even wanna know." Sookie said
"Vampire?" Tara asked Sookie
"Werewolf." Both Stackhouse sisters said
"I'm gonna run over to Merlotte's for a little while. I need to see Lafayette." Tara said
"Will we see you later?" Maria asked Tara
"Yeah. I won't be gone long." Tara said
Afterwards.
Both Maria and her sister watches a movie. Maria smells a vampire. A knock comes from the door.
"I'll get it." Sookie said
Sookie opens the door and sees Bill standing there.
"We must talk." Bill said
"Come in." Sookie said
Bill comes in. Maria gets up.
"Russell is gone." Bill said
"Thank God for small favors." Sookie said
"Eric as well." Bill said
"What?" Maria said
Maria walked up to them.
"I ended him." Bill said
"Why? (Maria's eyes were glowing green as she was mad.) He's done nothing to you." Maria said
"He tasted her." Bill said
"That doesn't give you the right." Maria said
"He was using you to get Sookies blood. I'm not taking any chances. I intend to bring the true death to all that have tasted her. Any who discover it in the future. I will do anything to keep her safe, even if it means not being in her life." Bill said
Maria smells another vampire and she looked at Eric. Her eyes were back to normal.
"You weren't being honest enough, Bill." Maria said
"Did you tell her you were originally sent by the Queen of Louisiana to procure her because of what she might be?" Eric asked Bill
Bill looked at Eric and he was surprised that Eric was still alive.
"What?" Sookie said
Bill looked at Sookie guilty.
"I did not know why she wanted you. As I grew to know you, I purposely kept you from her." Bill said
"Were you ever gonna tell me?" Sookie asked Bill
"I hoped to someday. I swear it." Bill said
"What about you letting two psychos beat her within an inch of her life so you could feed her your blood the night you met? Think she'll forgive you for that?" Eric asked Bill
"Oh, my God." Maria said
"Sookie..." Bill said as Sookie cuts him off
"Is it true?" Sookie asked Bill
"Yes." Bill said
Sookie started crying.
"He tried to silence me tonight so you would never know. He doesn't wanna protect you. He only wants to protect himself." Eric said
"Get out of my house." Sookie said
"Please!" Bill said
Bill was being forced out.
"Don't ever come here. Don't ever call me. Don't ever talk to me. Ever. You manipulated me into falling in love with you." Sookie said
"It is who you are, Sookie, not what you are, that I love, and will love always, until I meet the true death." Bill said
"Love?! You don't even get to use that word. I rescind my invitation." Sookie said
Bill was feeling more guilty.
"I want my phone back." Eric said
Bill leaves. Sookie walked in the living room and crying on the couch. Eric looked at Maria.
"I'm breaking up with you." Maria said
"Maria." Eric said
"I promise Godric to take care of you. But I can't keep that promise because after what you did. You tried sacrificing yourself and feeding on Sookie." Maria said
"It was the plan." Eric said
"There would've been another way. (Maria started crying. Eric was feeling guilty.) I need you to get off my porch." Maria said
"I would never have given her to Russell." Eric said
Maria eyes turn green again.
"GET THE FUCK OFF OF MY PORCH!" Maria shouts
"I'm sorry." Eric apologize
Maria slammed the door. Eric leaves. Maria walked towards her sister and comfort her.
Maria making tea in the kitchen. She smelled something strangely familiar. Someone knocked on the door. She walked towards the door and open it. She sees a red hair man with spikes.
"Listen I'm not in the mood. If you're looking for another tiger in bon temps then go find one somewhere else." Maria said
"I have a message from your father." Man said
"How you know my father?" Maria asked the man
"He knew you were ready. You want to meet him?" Man asked Maria
"I can't just drop everything and go see him. I'm upset and my sister is upset. The last thing I need is some stranger to drop this on me. If my father wanted to get to know me, he's 23 years to late." Maria said
"He was in a tribe. He's now a tribe leader. He's over here for you." Man said
"Fine. Let me do it tomorrow. I don't want to handle more today." Maria said
"Of course." Man said
"I didn't get your name?" Maria said
"It's Quinn." Quinn said
"Nice to meet you Quinn." Maria said
"Goodnight, Maria." Quinn said
Quinn transform into a weretiger and runs off. Maria shuts the door. Sookie walked downstairs.
"Who was that?" Sookie asked her sister
"Wrong address. I'll tell you later." Maria said
"You mind if I go out? I need to be alone." Sookie said
"I can understand that. Russell isn't coming to get you. You go ahead. (Maria hugged her sister.) It wasn't all your fault. (They stopped hugging.) It was mine too." Maria said
"Don't blame yourself. You go ahead and get some sleep. I'll be fine." Sookie said
Maria nods. Sookie leaves.
