- Lafayette Reynolds: See, that just ain't mother-fuckin' fair.
- Eggs: Excuse me?
- Lafayette Reynolds: First time in my god-damned life, I ain't chasin' after trouble and it just keeps walkin' through my front door. Loot at you. Damn! Ain't nothin' good can come outta somethin' so pretty.
- Eggs: You must be Lafayette.
- Lafayette Reynolds: Uh huh.
- Eggs: I'm Eggs.
- Lafayette Reynolds: Tara's Eggs?
- Tara Thornton: [walking up] You know that just don't sound right. Your name's Benedict. Why don't people call you Ben?
- Lafayette Reynolds: Or "Dict".
- Tara Thornton: Behave.
- Eric Northman: [observing the compound, disdainfully] You've got to be joking me. 'This' is the Fellowship of the Sun? That's their army? Scared little boys with bibles and crossbows?
- Isabel: Don't underestimate them. Support for their movement is growing. Their leadership camps are over flowing with self righteous extremists, all willing and ready to die for their cause.
- Eric Northman: That can be arranged quite easily.
- Isabel: Not until we know for sure the Fellowship has Godric.
- Eric Northman: What about your boy Hugo? And Sookie? They've been in there too long.
- Isabel: There's no sign of alarm and if Hugo were in serious danger, I would know it. I felt something earlier but it passed. He's OK now.
- Eric Northman: Tell me, what is it you find so fulfilling about human campanionship?
- Isabel: They feel much more strongly than we do. Everything is urgent, exciting. Maybe because their lives are so temporary.
- Eric Northman: Yes, they certainly don't keep well. Do you find the prospect of him growing old, sickly and crippled somewhat repulsive?
- Isabel: No, I find it curious. Like a science experiment. How does Bill Compton feel about your interest in Sookie?
- Eric Northman: I'm not interested in Sookie and even less in how Bill Compton feels. My only interest is finding Godric.
- Jessica Hamby: I'd have totally been a slut if I coulda gotten away with it. Me and my friend, Lori, we had this bet since eighth grade over who'd lose it first. And she was like pregnant before I even got my first kiss and my dad was sucha dick head. So what's your excuse?
- Hoyt Fortenberry: I was gonna wait, you know, till I met the right one. Well the right one never showed up. By then I had waited so long, I figured I couldn't give it away to just anybody. So now I'm twenty-eight... most girls probably think I'm like some kinda bi-sexual gay or somethin'. Not that I got any kind of problem with them. But I'm not.
- Jessica Hamby: I'm not most girls. I'm not even a girl, technically. But if you're okay with it... I'd be your first.
- Sam Merlotte: [about MaryAnn] Why is she going' through all this trouble tryin' to get to me?
- Daphne: 'Cause you got away from her once. She can't control you.
- Lorena: [in 1935, shouting] I gave you everything! Everything and you've thrown it away, moaning over what you've lost. You disgust me.
- Bill Compton: Than let me go!
- Lorena: No. I made you and you are mine!
- Bill Compton: You know I don't love you!
- Lorena: You never tried.
- Bill Compton: [seething] I have spent decades tryin'! I despise myself for what I did for you! God help me. I killed innocent people to prove to that I loved you! But it was pure annilism... I do not, I cannot, I will never love you.
- Lorena: Men have readily laid down their lives to spend just one night with me. What more can I give? What is it that you want from me?
- Bill Compton: Choice... Let me go.
- Lorena: With out me, you would be alone forever.
- Bill Compton: You're the one who's afraid of that. You are the saddest, loneliest creature I have ever known.
- Lorena: How dare you!
- [throws him into the table]
- Lorena: ... You hate me that much?
- Bill Compton: Let me go!
- Lorena: [tearfully] I cannot live without you.
- Bill Compton: [putting the stake to his heart] You'll have to.
- Lorena: No! Don't!... As your maker... I release you.
- Sookie Stackhouse: [in the basement] Godric? Godric, can you hear me? Isabel and Eric sent us. Godric?
- [to Hugo]
- Sookie Stackhouse: I know he's down here somewhere. I heard the awful things they're plannin' to do to him.
- Hugo: [real nervous] You remember how I said I was claustrophobic? I wasn't makin' that part up. It's bad! I can't stand elevators, walk-in closets... You know, hotels where they tuck the sheets in all tight? Just thinkin' about that makes me want to scream.
- Sookie Stackhouse: So the Newlins knew who we were the minute we walked in. Same way they knew to come after me at the airport. Someone at that nest is a trader.
- Hugo: You think a vampire sided with the Fellowship to get Godric outta the way?
- Sookie Stackhouse: Stan? Because he wants to be sheriff? I've heard of ambitious, but that's just plain crazy.
- Hugo: Well, you've met him. He would rip our throats out for lookin' at him side ways.
- Sookie Stackhouse: If it's true, they'll have to do a lot worse to him when they find out.
- Bill Compton: If Sookie is hurt in any way because of you, I will not stop until I drive a stake through whatever semblance of a heart you have left.
- Lorena: It's true. You're in love with a human. That's so tragic, it's funny.
- [starts laughing]
- Sarah Newlin: [in tears] I wanted this every bit as much as you did and the strange thing is, I don't even feel guilty about it.
- Jason Stackhouse: So you're cryin' 'cause...
- Sarah Newlin: Because I'm so happy!
- Stan: [about Hugo & Sookie] Maybe the little rats have run off, joined the Fellowship themselves.
- Isabel: Careful. Hugo is mine.
- Stan: Oh please! If you care so much about him, you'd have been in that church hours ago.
- Isabel: With no plan, no exit strategy? That's why you'll never be sheriff, Stan, You don't think.
- Stan: And you're too chicken shit to act! That's why you've been getting Godric coffee for the last fourty years.
- [to Eric]
- Stan: And you... Fellowship has your maker and you telepath and still you do nothin'.
- Eric Northman: [advancing to hold Stan to the wall] Are you questioning my loyalty, Stan?
- Stan: Just trying to return Godric to his rightful position.
- Eric Northman: Oh really? 'Cause I think maybe you have another agenda. You think starting a war with the Fellowship will distract us from the truth. That you're so starved for power, you murdered Godric for his title.
- Stan: That's a lie! How dare you accuse me?
- Isabel: Eric, we don't know this. There's no proof.
- Eric Northman: [releasing Stan] Not yet. But I will find it and when I do, there will be no mercy. In the mean time, you two can stand here and quibble over his decision. Run into that church and kill them all. I no longer care.
- [turning as blood tears start]
- Eric Northman: If Godric is gone, nothing will bring back what I have lost.
- Steve Newlin: [to Hugo & Sookie] Mornin'! Refreshments? How did ya'll sleep?
- Sookie Stackhouse: [about vampires] They're comin' for us, you know.
- Steve Newlin: Yeah, well that's what I thought. Figured a pretty girl like you had a vamp runnin' off to her rescue. Actually we're kinda hopin' for it, weren't we, Gabe?
- Gabe: Yes, sir. Bring it on.
- Steve Newlin: We're waiting for him. We've been waiting a long time.
- Sookie Stackhouse: You're gonna get yourself killed. That't not a threat. That's a fact.
- Steve Newlin: They've got you all twisted up, haven't that? With their glamoring and their empty promises and their evil blood.
- Sookie Stackhouse: [disgusted] You're the ones who are twisted! You call yourself Christians? Jesus would be ashamed of you!
- Steve Newlin: [laughing] I guess we're gonna have to agree to disagree on that one. Now things got a little outta hand last night and I apologize for that. I'm not the monster that the vampire lovin' media makes me out to be.
- Sookie Stackhouse: Yeah right!
- Steve Newlin: All I want from you is a couple of answers and than I'll be happy to feed you a nice hot breakfast and send you on your way.
- Hugo: What do you want to know?
- Sookie Stackhouse: Shut up!
- Hugo: Sookie, we need to get out of here. Just tell them what they want to know.
- [to Steve]
- Hugo: He name is Sookie Stackhouse and I'm Hugo Aries.
- Sookie Stackhouse: Hugo, no!
- Hugo: We were sent here by the vampires of Area 9 to find their sheriff!
- Bill Compton: [weakly] We need to rest.
- Lorena: So the minute I shut my eyes, you can run into the sun light and destroy yourself to save her? I care about you too much to allow that.
- Bill Compton: I may love her, but I'm not suicidal.
- Lorena: I know better than anyone what you are capable of.
- Bill Compton: Lorena, this is foolish! We are getting weaker and the bleeds have begun. You may be able to keep me here awake, for a day, maybe two but not forever.
- Lorena: You're right. Forever is a long time. Than again, I'm very patient.
- Maryann Forrester: [coming in, all filthy] Good mornin'!
- Tara Thornton: Whoa! Maryann, are you okay?
- Maryann Forrester: I am fantastic! I slept outside last night and communed with my animal nature.
- Eggs: [eying the dead bunny] No shit.
- Maryann Forrester: [holds it up] This little fellow hopped by and I thought, hmm, yummy! Rabbit stew.
- Tara Thornton: Aww. Poor bunny.
- Maryann Forrester: Feeling sorry for things is just an excuse not to celebrate your own happiness.
- Steve Newlin: [angry] You know, what burns me the most is that I brought you into my home. I treated you like family!
- Jason Stackhouse: I know and I'm so sorry... I'm weak.
- Steve Newlin: Yes, you are! I gave you a chance and salvation and you chose *them*!
- Jason Stackhouse: I know it was wrong. I...
- [Realizes what Steve said]
- Jason Stackhouse: Wait. Who are "them"?
- Steve Newlin: Oh, please, cut the act. I know who you are and who you're workin' for.
- Jason Stackhouse: [Confused] The road crew?
- Steve Newlin: That's funny. Oh, boy, I didn't think that you were the sharpest tool in the shed. Good at takin' orders, but not too bright. But boy, was I wrong. You are snakier than a snake in the grass.
- Hugo: [through a vision] They're sending in a spy tomorrow. I'll be with her.
- Sookie Stackhouse: [in the present] You? You're the traitor!
- Daphne: Dionysus, Satan. It's really just a kind of energy. Wild energy, like... lust, anger, excess, violence. Basically, all the fun stuff. Maryann brings it out in people. She channels it, controls it. She's immortal, Sam. She never wasn't here, so there ain't no point in fightin' her. You see, you'll never win.
- Sam Merlotte: I'm not just gonna let her kill me.
- Daphne: Bein' apart of something divine is worth dyin' a thousand time, you'll see.
- Sam Merlotte: If I give myself up, will she go away, leave everyone else alone?
- Daphne: I wouldn't bet on that. She's havin' too much fun and this town is full of crazies, ripe for the pickin'. She's like a pyro in a room full of matches.
- Hugo: I use to be like you. Thought I was a real emancipated thinker. Especially when Isabel took me to bed. The sex was... amazing. The best ever... well, you know. It's addictive, isn't it? To be desired by something that powerful.
- Sookie Stackhouse: I'm not addict.
- Hugo: No. I guess you wouldn't know how your life changes to suit them. You start missing work, can't get up in the morning, can't stand to leave them after dark. Before you know, you're somebody you don't even recognize.
- Sookie Stackhouse: [incredulous] So you went to the Fellowship 'cause you can't control yourself?
- Hugo: [about Isabel] I begged her to turn me. It's the only way we can be equals. See, they don't want us to be equals. She's just been using me, same way that Bill's been using you.
- Sookie Stackhouse: [skepical] You don't know Bill.
- Hugo: I know he and his friends are having you do their dirty work. I mean a telepath's gotta be a real trophy for a vampire.
- Sookie Stackhouse: Shut up!
- Hugo: All they care about is their own kind. That's why I joined the Fellowship.
- Sookie Stackhouse: So if the Newlins care so much about you, how come you're still in here? Face it, Hugo. You're nothin' but a fang-bangin' traitor to them.
- Tara Thornton: How's you leg?
- Lafayette Reynolds: Great.
- [when she looks at him unbelieving]
- Lafayette Reynolds: What? I got a powerful immune system.
- Tara Thornton: You have a powerful death wish is what you got!
- Eggs: Just because you got a little too stoned don't make you your momma.
- Tara Thornton: You're right. Sometimes it's like you're Sookie. Like you can read my mind or something.
- Eggs: I just get you, that's all.
- Bill Compton: [back in the present] You released me. There was nothin' left between us. What could you possibly have to gain from this?
- Lorena: You're making a fool of yourself with that girl. You have no future with her. Everyone knows it but you... Some day you'll see this for what it is. An act of love.
- Sarah Newlin: We have to go tell Steve.
- Jason Stackhouse: What?
- Sarah Newlin: Vow of honesty, Jason. Just 'cause I broke my vows to my husband doesn't mean I'm ready to throw all my beliefs out the window.
- Jason Stackhouse: Hold on a sec. We just can't walk in there and tell him.
- Sarah Newlin: No, we have to. Somehow, someday, God will forgive us. It's the only way we can have a future together.
- Jason Stackhouse: Let's just think about this for a second. A: Steve has guns. Then there's the lockdown tomorrow night. And secondly, we're gonna be locked in this church with Steve and his guns all night.
- Arlene Fowler: [In the woman's washroom] Excuse you. It says "ladies" on that door.
- Lafayette Reynolds: So what you skank ho's doin' in here?
- Tara Thornton: Watch yourself, bitch.
