Jesus Gonna Be Here

- Are you Lilith? - I am Bill Compton.
Though clearly, I'm something more.
We are closing down, vampire run businesses.
Take this sneaky son-of-a-bitch to camp.
Get off me or die Warlow.
Sookie, on the night your parents were killed, they were trying to kill you.
I saved you.
I'd like you to meet Willa Burrell.
The vampires that they're arresting, they're not taking them to jail.
They’re studying you all.
You wouldn't want to help me.
I do.
Are these your They're growing up so goddam fast.
Please tell me they're not dead.
You're going to want me.
I'm still gonna make you work for it.
My name is Nicole Wright.
I'm the co-founder of the US Vampire Unity society.
Nicole's pregnant.
We know they're putting Hep-V in the True Blood.
Get me Warlow blood.
All the vampires in that white room they'll all be impervious to the sun, as I already am.
I don't want any more blood on my hands, not even yours.
Don't push me away.
Mr.
Mayor.
These infected vampires.
Yeah, they're dangerous.
Bill Compton and I, came up with a plan.
Tonight, at Bellefleur's Bar and Grill Arlene Bellefleur's been generous enough to offer to sponsor a mixer.
Every single human, needs a vampire, and every vampire needs a human.
I am so sorry.
Let me nourish my baby girl I came to offer you protection.
What if I don't want it? You got it anyway.
May I have a moment alone with Sookie.
Anything Bill has to say to you, he can say to me too.
You heard the man.
- You smell that? - Smell what? I smell it.
What are you? Come on! Jane, come on.
- No, no, no, no! - Come on, come on, come on.
Jane! You fuck! Ah! Ah! Come on.
Come on.
Run! - Come on.
- Lettie Mae! Lettie Mae! - Hurry up! - No, I can't go.
Come on.
Come on.
- Get in, hurry.
Move.
- I'm not moving.
Come on, Mama, we have to go.
We have to get out of here.
They gonna kill us.
They gonna kill us.
Mama-- Oh, your mama's right.
No, no, dear Lord, don't let me die here! No! They're in the car! Kevin! Come on.
Looks like we got two for the price of one.
- Come here! - Sam! Sam! Sam, he's taking me! - Sam! - No! Sookie.
I saw those Hep-Vs.
They got Holly, Arlene.
They even got Jane Bodehouse.
They killed my Tara.
They killed my baby girl.
When you came in the air went out And every shadow filled up with doubt I don't know who you think you are But before the night is through I want to do bad things with you I'm the kind to sit up in his room Heart sick and eyes filled up with blue I don't know what you've done to me But I know this much is true I want to do bad things with you Ow, ooh I want to do real bad things with you.
Bellefleur.
They came, man.
They attacked.
They-- they killed Tara, man.
It's a fucking bloodbath over here.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Stackhouse, slow down.
They took Holly, Arlene.
What'd you just say? The Hep-Vs, they ran off with them.
Listen, Andy, I gotta go.
Adilyn! - Daddy? - Hep-vamps showed up at Bellefleur's and all hell broke loose.
They kidnapped Holly and a bunch of other people.
I gotta go.
You stay inside, no matter what.
You understand me? There's been an attack on Bellefleur's.
I overheard what you said.
Go.
I'll make sure that Adilyn is safe.
They killed your friend Tara.
I don't think you heard that part.
Do not invite her in.
Do you understand me? No matter what.
Leave me alone.
I can't move.
My legs ain't working.
Can't fucking deal with this.
I won't.
I gotta get out of here.
I don't trust you, vampire.
Stay away from me.
Fucking vampire whore.
Can't keep her legs shut.
If I ran this town, none of this shit would be happening.
Woulda thrown you out with the trash.
Sookie Stackhouse, you shameful slut.
You killed Jim sure as if you had stabbed him in the heart.
Where'd they take 'em? Holly and Arlene-- which way did they go? They went south.
Alcide went after them, and I'm pretty sure Sam did, too.
Miss Daniels, you need to drink my blood.
- I ain't drinkin' no vampire blood.
- No, no, no.
But you're hurt and it will heal you, I promise.
We lost the scent at Caddo Creek.
Great fucking plan, Mr.
Mayor.
I know, let's have a fucking vampire-human mixer.
Shut your mouth.
They got my baby girl.
- Hey, that's enough.
- All right, Andy.
We gotta figure out how to find 'em.
These Hep-V vampires, they'll be nesting.
Nesting? They'll be finding abandoned buildings with basements and no windows and they'll sleep there during the day.
You take Violet, go check out the old Reeves place on Route 9.
I'm gonna go check the slaughterhouse.
- I'll come with you.
- Like hell.
It's not safe.
Every human needs a vampire.
We need to get these people home safe.
I'll never understand how she can love the dead.
If she had only walked away, we wouldn't be in this mess right now.
Fucking vampire whore.
Spread your legs You said you've been right.
Look what it got you.
How come you're still alive and my baby's dead? She stood there at Terry's funeral sayin' all this bullshit.
Exterminate the fuckin' vampires.
Hello? Are you okay? Are you hurt? No, I'm okay.
Jess, they-- they killed Tara.
Yeah, I know.
I can't believe it.
Wait, where are you? Um I'm at the Bellefleurs'.
I offered them my protection.
I'm going to protect Adilyn.
Have you fed? It's okay, I'm-- I'm not hungry.
Jess, you have to eat.
I-- I'll see you later, okay? Yeah, okay.
You're a dog.
What? I just saw you.
You were a dog, you turned back into you.
What the fuck was that about? Look, Vince, when Mayor Norris passed, you and me fought a hard campaign against each other, so I don't blame you for sour grapes, but you tell these people their mayor's a dog? See, all that's gonna do is make you look crazy.
Don't tell me I didn't see what I saw.
You were a motherfucking dog.
God damn it, fine.
All right, you saw what you saw.
Take a look around this place, Vince.
Folks here are barely holding on.
We throw them another curveball, people are gonna panic.
What the fuck are you? I'll tell you everything, Vince, but not until we get through this.
For the sake of the town we both love, I am begging you, please, can we keep this between us just for now? Please? Hey, listen up, everybody.
It's not safe here.
Those Hep-V vamps could be back any time.
We need every vampire to take their assigned human back to the safety of their home.
And there, if every Hep-V negative human would kindly feed their vampire in exchange for their protection, we got a better chance of making it through till the morning.
Now, tomorrow morning, we're gonna meet up at Reverend Daniels' church to try and figure out how to help those folks who've been hit, so please spread the word.
You have a human? Come on.
I'm gonna get you home.
Let's get you home, Mr.
Mayor.
No, thanks, man, I'm fine.
Every vampire a human.
This was your plan.
People need to see you sticking to it.
All right.
Hey, this is Sookie.
I'm not in right now.
Please leave a message.
Hey, where'd you go? I'm looking for you.
We should head back.
We watch "Deer Hunter.
" - What is your name? - Go fuck yourself.
The lady "Go Fuck Yourself"! Challenger go first.
I've survived 27 times.
Allah loves me.
Does your god love you? Nope, my god fuckin' hates me.
The world is ending.
You need to make peace with your god.
Everyone I love leaves, everything I touch dies, so forgive me if I don't share your faith in my Lord.
- He can save you.
- Yeah, tell you what.
Your god and my god can go to a motel and have a circle jerk for all I care.
I'll be in Hell having a three-way with the Devil.
Your words are hollow.
I can see the love and pain in your eyes.
Because this feeling right now makes you closer to God, no? Makes you know you're alive? You're dead.
No, I'm not.
I'm alive.
So where the fuck's my maker? This is who you have to see.
What are you doing? I'm sorry about your friend.
Thanks.
You can't come in here, though, right? - Even though the window's open? - That's right.
I can't come in without an invitation.
That's kind of a weird rule.
Yeah.
I heard what you said to my dad before.
About not wanting to hurt me.
I meant it.
I have nightmares about that night.
Me, too.
It's 'cause of my blood, right? I smell different to vampires? Yes.
Do I still smell good to you? Yes.
Are you gonna kill me? No.
Well, what if you can't help it? I should hate you.
But I don't.
Was that your boyfriend? What? On the phone, was that your boyfriend? Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, what's he like? He's-- he's so loving and kind and gentle and he's hot, too.
Yeah, he's, like, sexy as heck.
Do you have a boyfriend? There's this one boy, but I don't know.
What's his name? Wade.
Holly's boy? You have a crush on Holly's boy? - No, not a crush exactly.
- Yes, you do.
What is she? She's mine.
You walked home alone.
After what happened tonight, it ain't a question of whether these Hep-V vamps are out there in the woods looking for us.
We know they're out there, Sookie.
Why would you do that? - I read your thoughts.
- What? I'm sorry, I know I'm not supposed to, but I got no buffer tonight.
- And I can't-- they just keep coming in - Sookie.
and I expect it from everybody else, - but not from you.
- What? You're supposed to love me and support me, and even you are blaming me for this, blaming me for what's happened to this town and blaming me for Arlene being missing.
No, I'm not.
I read your thoughts.
- Sookie, it ain't fair.
- I know that.
It ain't fair to judge me and push me away - 'cause of something I thought.
- I know that, too.
I love you.
You're not telling me anything I don't already know because, newsflash, I can read your fucking thoughts, you get it? I'm sorry, it's my fucking curse to know the truth of what people think of me always, to feel the pain and the hurt and the ugly, ugly truth.
Even you, even Jason, even Andy and Sam and every goddamn human in this town.
- Sookie, I-- - Tara's dead.
I know.
- I'm sorry.
- No, I'm sorry.
I need to be on my own right now.
Okay.
How many people you seen die? How many? I've lost count.
You know, me and Tara, we grew up together.
She'd come over to our place all the time.
She'd come running over with her skinny little legs whenever her mom would hit the bottle.
It's weird, huh? I mean, it feels like we should stop, don't it? Jason.
What? Somebody's here already.
The hell? Evening, Stackhouse.
Vince? What are you folks up to? Hunting those H-vamps.
They took Lou's brother.
All due respect, that's my job.
All due respect, you aren't equipped.
Now, the Feds might be, but they're all camped out in the big cities, which means Small Town America, well, we're on our own.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Listen, we are all freaked out by the Armageddon-like situation that we got going on here, but you folks taking matters into your own hands? Well, that's just a shortcut straight to the morgue.
So the alternative is to, what, Jason? Put our faith in you? Or Sheriff Bellefleur and Mayor Merlotte? If they took Caleb, we gotta get 'em back.
I would seriously put that gun down if I were you.
- Violet, I got this.
- Oh, so is that how it is? Is she the law now? Deputy vampire? - No, that's not how it is.
- You a fangbanger now, Stackhouse? - Jason is mine.
- Violet.
So why don't you take your puny little guns back home and go fuck your depressed homey housewives with your tiny little dicks? What if I don't have a dick? Can I stay? Of course you can.
But then I'll have no choice but to rip your fucking head off - and use it as a candy dish.
- Violet! Okay, now, why don't you folks go on, now? All right.
All right, come on.
What was that? What? What? Oh, you can come in, I guess.
I like your place.
Yeah, it has a certain ghetto je ne sais quoi.
I know you got to eat, but it is motherfucking mandatory that I get my brain out of this plane of existence right the fuck now.
So gimme a sec while I get altered and then I'll give you lunch.
Can I? So, you Jessica's man, right? Yep.
She cool.
I am sorry about your cousin.
You know, I feel relieved.
How fucked up is that? I guess because I grieved the first time she died.
The second time she died, I don't feel nothing inside.
All my friends died in Vietnam.
All of them.
Their bodies would be brought home on this plane.
Wood coffins, a flag draped over top.
A notification officer and a chaplain would show up in town.
And they'd drive down the road in their Ford Galaxy and all the moms and all the dads would come out on their front porch and they would hold their breath and wait to see which house the officer stopped at.
You served? I was a draft dodger, a pacifist.
I don't believe in violence in any form.
If I had lived then, I'd be right there with you.
One day, I was home for Christmas and the officer came to my best friend's house.
Danny Monoghan.
He lived right across the street.
Danny and I, we were-- well, he was The officer delivered the news that Danny had died during the Battle of Hue-- mortar attack.
So I went across the street to pay my respects to Danny's family.
Danny's dad, Mr.
Monoghan, he grabbed Danny's old Louisville Slugger.
It's the same bat Danny and I had used all through high school.
And he beat me with it right in the middle of the street.
Fuck.
Called me a "hippie faggot" and just left me there to die.
This vampire in town took pity on me made me a vampire that night.
So, if you ask me, there's zero point in feeling pain or fear, grief or regret.
You can laugh, you can cry, you can smoke out.
It doesn't matter.
To Tara or to the universe.
It makes no fucking difference.
You are one metaphysical fuck.
So, homey.
Gimme your best shot.
What the fuck?! Get back in the car.
It's not safe out here.
What are you doing? I am a man.
I'm a fucking officer of the law.
You left me standing with my dick out back there.
How do you think that makes me feel? I don't know, Jason.
How does that make you feel? You won't let me fuck you.
You won't let me do my job.
You fucking feed on me every night.
This is bullshit! My balls are so fucking blue, they're about to fall off.
Well, what are you going to do about it, huh, Jason? I'm gonna fuck you.
And you're gonna fuck me back.
We're gonna fuck together.
You hear me, woman? Let's fuck! For fuck's sake! It's about fucking time, Jason.
I've been waiting.
Come on out, baby girl! - I don't bite! - Shut the fuck up! Why she smell so good? You had a taste? I get that you wanna keep her all to yourself.
Sink your teeth into that sweet flesh.
But didn't your mama tell you it's nice to share? You cross that line and I will fucking kill you! Me? I'm dying anyway.
Got nothing to lose.
- Close the window! - He can't hurt me, you said.
Not if I don't invite him in.
I said that he couldn't come inside.
I never said that he couldn't hurt you.
We could share her.
We could fuck her.
- I need you to drink my blood.
- What? Listen, if you drink my blood, even one drop, I will always know where you are and I will always be able to protect you.
Okay? No.
You're gonna have to trust me.
I trusted you before.
You stay the fuck back! I'm gonna taste that little girl before I die.
Oh, sweet Jesus.
I can see her.
- Honey, it's gonna be all right.
- My Tara's talking to me.
Tara? Tara? - Tara, baby? I'm right here.
- What's wrong with her? - She's high on your blood.
- I'm right here, baby.
- I didn't give her that much.
- Go around the other side.
Mrs.
Daniels, you gotta calm down.
She ain't in Heaven.
She needs our help.
That's the vampire blood talking.
- Honey, come on, come on.
- She can't speak.
- Listen to me.
- She ain't saying any words.
Tara is on the other side, you see? - She ain't in Heaven.
- Honey, listen to me.
- She needs me.
No, no, that's the vampire blood talking now.
Shh, I want you to quiet down.
That's it, quiet down.
Now, lay down.
- Lay down.
- Tara, I'm right here.
Tara - I'm right here.
- Shh.
- Go to sleep, baby.
Go to sleep.
- I won't leave you.
Shh.
- I won't.
I won't.
- Yes, yes.
- I won't.
I won't.
- Yes.
Tara ever tell you about her-- her mother's issues? I know a little bit.
No more blood for her, you understand? Of course.
It'll be out of her system by morning.
Thank you for your help.
I've got nowhere to go.
Eric's gone.
Pam's gone.
And I was rooming with Tara, but I-- I can't go back there.
I can't sleep there with all of her stuff and her smell with her just being gone.
Lord, Lord, Lord.
You a lost sheep, ain't ya? Come with me.
Lord knows it ain't much but it's light-tight.
You can stay as long as you'd like.
I'll see you tomorrow night.
You sleep now, sweetheart.
Thank you.
Sami.
My daughter for you.
She is no sick.
While your daughter does look delicious, I'll pass.
When was last time you feed? I'll be fine.
Just the information, please.
There must be some mistake.
No mistake.
- He would never-- - My information is accurate.
What you do is your choice.
Hey.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I love you.
I love you, too.
This place closed down a year ago.
Used to find kids partying in here all the time.
They've been nesting here.
Holly! Jesus Ch-- - Hey, hey! - Don't move! - Whoa, whoa, whoa! - Vampire! Hold on, hold on.
Stay right where you are Mr.
Compton.
What seems to be the problem? Don't look him in the eyes, y'all.
All right, everybody calm down, all right? We're all on the same side here.
Like fuck we are.
They took my brother.
They took my Holly.
Well, then it serves you right.
Yeah.
"For every human a vampire"? "For every vampire a human"? Look at what they're doing to people.
You and Mayor Merlotte, you stood up there in church and you told us to trust the vampires.
Now people we love are dead! Our friends have been taken! It's me that you want.
The mixer was my idea.
- Mine and Mayor Merlotte's.
- He ain't my mayor.
Now maybe you didn't notice, but the sheriff wasn't at Bellefleur's tonight.
Not until he got the call about what happened.
He was at home in protest.
You let him go, you can do what you want with me.
All right, then.
Why don't you get outta here, Andy? And don't look back 'cause you don't wanna see what's coming next.
Well, that's where you're wrong.
I do wanna see it.
This vampire and me, there's a history here and it ain't a good one.
If you're gonna end him, I deserve to be the one to do it.
What'd he do to you? That's between him and me.
Okay, Sheriff, do it.
We could use you on our side.
Andy! What's your name, son? - Lou.
- Listen to me, Lou.
I want you to forget the fact that I'm the sheriff of this parish for just a second.
Firing a weapon at another human being is a big fucking deal.
When you do it, when you pull that trigger, you are crossing a line you can never come back from.
Pull it.
Your life's never gonna be the same.
You be sure this is what you wanna do 'cause I will pull my fucking trigger, Lou.
I've done it before and I'll do it again.
So help me, God, I will.
Get the hell outta here.
Go on, go home.
It's not safe.
I can't believe you're just gonna stand by and let these H-vamps kill our town.
Ain't nobody standin' by.
It's to be continued.
No, son, this shit's over.
Get! Come on.
Man, he's drunk anyway.
Jesus Christ! We ain't never gonna make it outta here.
Not ever.
Bon Temps got a police force of five people and I'm one of them.
That is not true.
Andy's gonna find us.
We are in Shreveport! In the basement of some fangbanger bar! How they gonna find us in time? Oh, my God! I can't die down here.
I've got kids.
No, no, no, no.
You've gotta keep your head up, Arlene.
You hear me? I can't have you losing it on me.
Hey, hey, hey, it's gonna be okay.
- We're gonna be okay.
- I can't feel her.
- I don't think she's-- - She's gonna be okay.
She's just fine.
Oh, God! Keep your head down and be quiet.
We're all gonna die.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
Oh, please, God.
Please.
Oh, God, please don't.
Please, please.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Please, please, don't.
Please, please, please, don't kill me.
Please, please, please.
Oh, please, please don't.
Please don't.
Oh, God.
Oh, no.
No.
No fucking way.
Oh, no.
You don't have to do this.
Look, I wanna say thank you for what you did back there.
I saved your miserable hide because I need your help to get Holly and Arlene back.
But we are not good.
We will never be good.
There ain't nothing in this world can make right what you done to me and my family.
So save your thanks.
Bye, Daddy.
Dawn's coming.
You should go.
You're willing to die for her? I am not leaving.
We have an attic! No! You're gonna die out here! You stay inside.
Do not invite me in.
I trust you.
You shouldn't.
Jessica, I invite you in.
Fuck.
I invite you in! No! No! Let me in, you fucking bitch! Let me in! Come on, lady! I've gotta make her mine! Let me in! You bitch! No! No! No! Yes, brothers and sisters, it has been night a long, long time.
But when I got up today, I prayed to God.
I asked Him for guidance.
I strained to listen.
And He told me, "Morning is coming.
" Yes, He did.
Morning is coming.
- Let the church say, "Amen.
" - Amen.
You have to believe me, children of God, that when you stay with the Lord, if you cling to Him, if you abide in Him, well, then, He'll let you catch a glimpse of the morning.
It's hard to know what to say.
Our community has been raided.
Don't you put your hand on me, Sookie Stackhouse.
It's your fault my baby's dead.
She always went running to you.
And you led her down the path to Hell.
You are not welcome in this house of God.
Fucking slut.
Vampire-fucking bitch.
Why don't you run back to your vampire lover? - I wanna fuck you, vampire fucker.
- Has she no shame? - Get out, you stupid cunt.
- I wish she would leave.
- Vampires flock to you like geese.
- I'm wanna fuckin' kill you.
- How long can I stay off? - Stab you through the heart.
Run you out of town.
You don't belong here.
I can hear you.
I can hear each and every one of you.
At least Lettie Mae's got the decency to say what she thinks to my face.
I've lived in Bon Temps my whole life.
And I love this town, and I've known all of you my whole life.
And even though most of you hate me, I love just about everybody here.
And I know what most of you think of me, that some of you blame me for what's happened.
And you're not wrong.
I played a part, but we can't go back to the way things were and I can't save those who have been lost.
But some of our friends and loved ones are fighting for their lives right now, and for better or for worse, nobody in this town knows vampires better than me.
I wanna help.
Please let me help.
Well, Jesus gonna be here He gonna be here soon, yeah He gonna cover us up with leaves With a blanket from the moon, yeah With a promise and a vow And a lullaby for my brow Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon, yeah Oh, I'm not gonna do nothing But wait here I don't have to shout, yeah I got me no reason, yeah And I got no doubt, yeah I know my Jesus gonna be here Gonna be here soon Yeah.
