Recapping True Blood each and every Monday.

This one goes out to all the ladies.

'Hard-Hearted Hannah' is a tribute to estrogen, whether it be within a human, vampire, shape-shifter or something else altogether because it's the ladies of True Blood who really are the ones that possess the proverbial testicles.

Jesus is our homboy.

In the lobby of Hotel Carmilla, Eric meets with Bill's sire Lorena (Mariana Klaveno). He enlists her help to keep Bill from Sookie, so that Sookie can infiltrate the Fellowship of the Sun without a safety net and find Godric. This leads to some faded flashbacks of Bill (disguised as 'Guillaume,' the French pianist) and Lorena's good-old days of going flapper-happy on top of bloody and gurgling bodies in the '20s.

Upstairs in the hotel, local vampiress Isabel offers up her human love, Hugo (Christopher Gartin), to help Sookie infiltrate the Fellowship. While the two humans devise their plan alone later at the hotel bar, Hugo asks Sookie if the issue of 'turning' has come up. Hugo suggests that this is the ultimate goal, so they can stay forever young with their vampire loves, but Sookie dismisses the idea ' undoubtedly to be revisited later.

At the Fellowship compound, Jason and frenemy Luke (Wes Brown) are chosen to build a ceremonial platform to kill a vampire (in this case, Godric). While nailing and screwing, they discuss what type of pre-marital sex is most sinful (concluding it would be doing it with a 'Vampire dude') and Jason considers abstinence. It doesn't last long, however, as Sarah Newlin convinces him that it is God's will that they get it on, and they do so, in the chapel balcony ,nonetheless.

Sookie and Hugo arrive at the compound, and pose as a soon-to-be married couple, but Steve Newlin is not convinced. After giving them a tour of the chapel, he manages to throw them into the church's dungeon of doom. Bill awakens in the hotel to Sookie's screams, but is unable to reach her as Lorena is suddenly on top of him, holding him down.

That night in Bon Temps, after going for a playful jaunt as dog and pig, Sam and Daphne return to human form. Sam asks what the audience is thinking, 'Why did you turn into a pig this time?' Which is a good question, considering it's the same pig that was housed at Maryann's house a few orgies back. Two-and-two are quickly put together, as Daphne tricks Sam into going to a Maryann orgy-in-progress. He's captured by revelers and held strong, while around him Bon Temps residents thrust and grind under Maryann's spell. Daphne places a bull-shaped mask over Maryann's head and it's pretty clear that hell is soon to break loose.

There was another plot leading/character building section of the episode where Eggs and Tera were sent 2hours out of town (via Maryanne's Jag) to find an old rare part for Sookie's ancient water heater that broke earlier that morning. On the way to the pluming store, Eggs starts having a funny Deja-Vu feeling. He tells Tera to pull over and they both begin to walk into a field in the middle of the woods. There, Eggs half way recognizes articles of clothing,and blood among a campsite that has, hopefully, seen better days. Eggs doesnt know where these memories are from and begins to remember things/ memories from the night at the campfire, but still is a bit unsure. As so are we about his intentions, his past, his REAl past possibly? Tera confused as much as the rest of us, probes Eggs for answers but Eggs can only remember so much.

I myself am a little confused still about Eggs. Though he is a dreamy hunk of Yummy, I cant quite belive that Eggs is completely nieve to belive that maryanne is Human. He speds tons of time around her! Dont you think she would slip up at some point? If not, she did this point, Although I would hardly call it a slip up. She wiggled around her orgy group...sucking up the carnal energy and saw them standing in the bushes, just moments before Sam and Daphne's apperance, then stopped and looked at Eggs and Tera and began to shake again. She is seriously in control of this situation. Too much control if you ask me.

What hey hell will Sam, Tera, Jason and Sookie do now?!
