True Blood Season 5, Episode 8 - Everybody Wants To Rule The World

We're headed into the last handful of episodes of True Blood, with "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" set to air this Sunday night. The clips we have to show you give us some idea of what's going on with Sookie as she tries to figure out what happened to her parents, and what's going on with Bill and Eric, who seem to have differing opinions on the Lilith situation.

The first clip from Episode 9 has Eric and Bill talking in private. It seems Eric is under the impression that Bill's Team Lilith attitude is all a ruse. I'll admit, it's hard to tell how genuine he is, but based on this clip, it seems like he might have been serious about destroying the True Blood factories, which would force vampires to feed off humans…



Eric mentioning "what's in that blood" is an interesting point. Was it spiked with something to make the Authority thing they were picturing Lilith?

And here we learn something interesting about the murder of Sookie's parents…



This probably explains the random re-appearance of the former Bon Temps sheriff, Bud Dearborne, who's now spending his retirement time cheating on his wife and seems very uninterested in having anything to do with local law enforcement these days. Will he be willing to take time off from experimenting with male enhancement ointments to help Sookie?

True Blood airs Sundays at 9:00 p.m. ET on HBO.
