True Blood Guide, Season 1: “I Don’t Wanna Know” with Commentary by Alan Ball
Caught in a compromising position, Sam shares a secret with an incredulous Sookie. Thinking she’s been purged of her demon, Tara celebrates with Lettie Mae – but goes off the deep end when she uncovers Miss Jeanette’s true intentions. Sookie has a disturbing revelation during Arlene (Carrie Preston) and Rene’s (Michael Raymond James) engagement party at Merlotte’s; Jason and Amy debate what to do with Eddie; and Tara speeds into a bizarre roadside encounter that lands her in jail. At a vampire tribunal to decide his fate, Bill faces a harsh penalty for his offense, but the magister (Zelijko Ivanek) decides on a more creative sentence involving a young human named Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll).
Written by Chris Offutt; directed by Scott Winant.

Alan Ball: That’s a huge episode and was really fun. I love the trial, Zelcko Ivanec, who plays the master, is so good! I love Sookie getting chased, the whole big party for Arlene and her engagement, and we’ve got CC Adcock, the Louisiana musician, to play live. Tara has the exorcism, and then later finds out that Miss Jeanette is a phony, which is the reason she shows up drunk in her come-fuck-me dress. And that’s also the introduction of the, Michelle Forbe’s character, Maryann. Who Maryann is will be revealed. She’s not human. We’re having a great time with Michelle, who gets to do some crazy ass stuff this season. (SciFiTVZone.com)
