Sookie's actually kind of into it when Russell proposes they make an alliance, just because it's funny and he's a loon and she's bored. He promises not to hurt her, or anybody she loves. She says that his word is worth "about as much as tits on a turtle," which is just so authentic and colorful, and he offers her a million bucks, and she negotiates him to five million imaginary dollars, and he offers to kill Eric for her, or Bill, or both, or neither of them. She's like, "Kill both of them and give me your house in Mississippi." Because shockingly she and Talbot have the exact same taste. Anyway, she was obviously just dicking with him and goes back to her book, but he's not done.

Russell starts out seeming like he's trying to get in her head, but the more he says the truer it sounds, all about how when she does die it will be by vampire, because she is that delicious: That in fact her blood is "paradise, Arcadia, nirvana" and perhaps capable of all kinds of magical things. That she is vampire crack and that anybody who says different is selling you something.

Which makes a very different person, retroactively speaking, of Bill Compton. Who is jealous and crazy about her, and her blood, and as Russell points out, "true gentleman" and "total creep" are not that far apart here: "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..."

Anyway, at this point Sookie maces him with that silver stuff and changes the subject to the Jar of Talbot Goo and her theory that Russell's crazy ass is thinking now that somehow her magical blood will bring him back to life, and the music starts to wail in the background and Sookie goes at this point totally nuts and you can see the shiny scary Faerie self there under the surface for the first time, hard and wild and angry and joyous in destruction, as she pours Talbot down the sink and turns on the garbage disposal and laughs and laughs as Russell's heart breaks and then his language breaks, first down to German and then to just noises, and she laughs like an child the entire time. Just completely out of control.

Calvin is not happy to see Jason in Hotshot, nor his daughter, and there's a lot of yelling, and even though Jason is saving his bacon Calvin's still just very stubborn and ungrateful and trashy, but the rest of the people start getting the V together to get rid of it, and burn down the meth lab, and in his little way Jason points out that Cal isn't making any sense really, and besides that Hotshot is totally gross and all the people are malnourished and uneducated and "several people obviously got dental problems" and things like this. The kid with the long hair that was noshing that deer that time calls Norris "Uncle Daddy Calvin," which, my God.
