Strange Love

Tara: Uh-uh do... do not snap at me. I have a name. And that name is Tara. Ain't that funny a black girl being named after a plantation. No it ain't funny at all. In fact it really pisses me off that my momma was either stupid or just plain mean. Which is why you better be nice if you plan on getting a drink tonight.
Customer: Sorry.

-----------------------------------------------------
Gran: Wonder how much one would charge for something like that?
Jason: A thousand bucks.
Sookie: See, now that just makes me sick.
Gran: I know. What kind of cheap woman could ever do something like that?
Sookie: No, it makes me sick that they're getting a thousand bucks to lay there and do nothing while I bust my ass for ten bucks an hour plus tips.

-----------------------------------------------------

Lafayette: You look like a porn star with that tan and pink lips... You gotta date?
Sookie: No. When I wear makeup, I get bigger tips.
Lafayette: Yes, girl. Lets here it! These damn redneck are suckers for packaging.
Sookie: And I get even bigger tips when I act like I don't have a brain in my head. But if I don't, they're all scared of me.
Lafayette: They ain't scared of you honey child. They're scared of what's between your legs.

------------------------------------------------------

Sookie: What can I get for you?
Bill: Do you have any of that synthetic bottled blood?
Sookie: No, I'm so sorry. Sam ordered some of it a couple years ago, but no one ever ordered it, so it went bad. You're our first [whispers] vampire.
Bill: Am I that obvious?
Sookie: I knew it the minute you came in. I'm surprised no one else seems to.
Bill: (referring to Sam) He does.
Sookie: Oh, don't worry about Sam. I know for a fact he supports the vampire rights movement.
Bill: How progressive of him.
Sookie: So, is there anything else you drink?
Bill: Well, actually, no. But you can bring me a glass of red wine, so I have a reason to be here.
Sookie: Well, whatever the reason, I'm glad you are!

-----------------------------------------------------

Bill: Aren't you afraid to be out here alone with a hungry vampire?
Sookie: No.
Bill: Vampires often turn on those who trust them, you know. We don't have human values like you.
Sookie: A lot of humans turn on those who trust them, too. [takes out a silver chain and wraps it around her neck] I'm not a total fool.
Bill: Oh, but you have other very juicy arteries. There is one in the groin that is a particular favorite of mine.
Sookie: Hey, you just shut your nasty mouth, mister! You might be a vampire, but when you talk to me, you will talk to me like the lady that I am!
Bill: You want to drink the blood they collected?
Sookie: No!
Bill: I understand it makes humans feel more healthy. Improves their sex life.
Sookie: I am as healthy as a horse, and I have no sex life to speak of, so you can just keep it.
Bill: You could always sell it.
Sookie: I wouldn't touch it.
Bill: What are you?
Sookie: Well, I'm Sookie, and I'm a waitress. What's your name?
Bill: Bill.
Sookie: Bill? I thought it might be Antoine, or Basil, or like Langford, maybe. But Bill? The vampire Bill!

S1 E1: Strange Love

AIR DATE: September 7,2008

Sookie Stackhouse, is a telepathic waitress working at Merlotte's bar in the fictional town of Bon Temps, Louisiana when Bill Compton, a 173 year old vampire enters the bar. Sookie is excited, as Bill is the first vampire customer the bar has had since vampires "came out of the coffin" two years ago. Sookie's boss, Sam Merlotte, and best friend Tara Thornton, are apprehensive about Bill's arrival. Meanwhile, Jason Stackhouse, learns his sexual partner Maudette Pickens has sex with vampires, and allows them to feed on her for money. Jason Stackhouse engages in rough sex with Maudette Pickens, but things take a shocking turn when he begans to choke her. When her body falls limp he becomes scared and flees the scene, unaware the encounter was caught on camera.

Back at the bar, the Rattrays, a couple addicted to vampire blood conspire to trap Bill and drain his blood to sell on the black market. Sookie reads their minds and learns of their plan. She tries to convince Sam and Tara to do something, but they are reluctant to get involved. When Sookie notices Bill and the Rattrays have left she pursues them to find Bill confined by silver and the Rattrays draining him. Sookie quickly disposes of them and frees Bill. She learns that she cannot hear Bills thoughts and becomes intrigued.

The next day Jason visits Sookie and Gran, at home. They all learn that Maudette has been murdered, and Jason quickly blames a vampire. Jason's suspicious behavior prompts Sookie to try to read his mind, but he quickly rebuffs her and rushes off to work. At work Sheriff Dearborn and Detective Andy Bellefleur take Jason in for questioning.

Sookie learns that Jason has been arrested when she comes to work. She quickly forgets about his situation when Bill returns to the bar. While he is there Sookie loses her concentration and the thoughts of all the patrons in the bar flood her mind. Bill and Sookie make an arrangement to meet after she gets off work at 1:30 am. After Bill leaves, Sam and Tara scold Sookie for getting involved with a vampire. They warn her that she could get killed. After she tells them off she goes out to meet with Bill, while waiting for him, she is attacked by the Rattrays.
