With Bill away, Jessica enjoys her new freedom by partying with some local college kids; Jason is visited by the recently turned Reverend Steve Newlin; Terry's PTSD is reignited by an old Iraq War buddy, Patrick; Alcide turns up at Sookie's to warn her about the recently resurfaced Russell Edgington.

Recap

The scene opens with Bill leaving a message for Jessica. He says that he has been called out on business as Eric rapidly cleans. Sookie comes into the kitchen. Debbie comes up with a shotgun. Bill senses the danger, but Eric tells him to ignore her just as Sookie rejected them both earlier. However, they hear the gunshot and run out. The Authority is there already and encloses them in silver nets. Lafayette wakes out of bed to go to the kitchen to find Tara on the ground shot in the head. Pam goes in and Sookie tells her to get out. She says that she wanted to tell Eric that she was sorry. Lafayette tells Pam that she can turn her. Pam doesn’t like the idea, but Sookie tells her that she would owe her. She turns around and asks her what she means. Meanwhile, Bill and Eric are put in the trunk of a car. Back at the house, Sookie suggests that she take away her curse that Marnie put on her, but Pam says that isn’t good enough. Sookie agrees that she will help Pam and Eric get back together. Pam agrees to help and gives Tara her blood...
