Tonight on True Blood: “Never Let Me Go” (Encore)

True Blood season 2’s encore broadcast run continues with episode 2.05, “Never Let Me Go.” Our knowledge of the vampire world expands this week as the hunt for Godric continues. We meet Stan and Isabel, Godric’s lieutenants, as Eric, Bill and Sookie start trying to unravel the events that led to Godric being taken. In addition, Sookie tries to bond with Barry, another telepath, plus we go back 1,000 years to see when Eric was turned.

In Dallas, Sookie connects with one of her own, then joins Bill and Eric for a strategic summit at the lair of the missing vampire, Godric (Allan Hyde), attended by his lieutenants, Stan (Ed Quinn) and Isabel (Valerie Cruz). Meanwhile, Jason shows his mettle at a Light of Day boot camp, and is rewarded for his hard work with a gift from Sarah (Anna Camp). Rebuffed by Tara in her relocation efforts, Maryann decides to cast her spell on the staff of Merlotte’s, softening Tara up towards her new “family.” Eric shares a little-known secret about his past with Bill, and Sookie makes a decision that might solve the Godric mystery – or get her killed.
