True Blood is a thinly veiled metaphor and Godric is Jesus. Or Martin Luther King Jr. Or the pacifist movement. Also, people ate human hearts in this episode. Ick nast.

Basically, here's what happened on the episode:

1. Eric came to save Godric. Godric was all hot and young looking and kinda sad and I totes would have had a crush on him in high school. The Fellowship is about to sacrifice Eric when Bill finally comes to Sookie's rescue (having used the power of television to dispense his creepy maker). He's remiss to do anything since Guy Smiley Preacher Dude threatens to kill Sookie if he comes any closer. Luckily, Jason goes all Rambo on anyone's ass who talks crap about Sookie. This time, that someone happened to be his former lover Barbie Doll. Sign, no more handjobs. Now it's all paintball guns and face punches. Jason stealthily infiltrates the church and shoots Guy Smiley in the hand, then face, with the paintball gun. Bam! Bitch went down! Bam, Jason, super bitch! Sookie removes the silver chains from Eric, planting the seeds for an Eric/Sookie storyline and the cowboy vampires enter the church.

Right before they kill everyone, Godric shows up. He's all in white and hovering above the congregation looking like an angel or some shit and starts talking about the advanced vampire who doesn't just murder humans. The vampires stand down and the humans look like terrible background actors. Later they have a big vampire party at a Frank Lloyd Wright house in Texas and Sookie and Jason are invited. Lorena shows up and she and Sookie get into a bitch fight. I hate them both and I wish at that moment that they both would have gotten killed by Eric.

The best part of the party scene was when Eric interacted with Jason. Then he smiled. Oh, Eric. Why are you the best part of this show.

2. Back in Bon Temps, Jessica and Hoyt realize that she will always be a virgin. That sucks.

Maryann attempts to set Sam up as a murderer when she drops Crappy Waitress' heartless body off in his freezer than calls the cops. Tara and Eggs attempt to fill in the holes in their memory but are soon distracted by devouring the human heart pie Maryann has cooked up for them. For real. It was gross. I'm tired of this Maryann BS. Needs more Lafayette.

3. At the end of this episode, Ken Doll for Jesus enters the party with what appears to be a silver bomb strapped to his chest. Oh, noes! Puppy Sam would not be happy about this.
