So I had 2 links to watch this show streamed live since I don’t have HBO. Unfortunately, 1 was choppy and got axed 3 minutes into the show. The second one was also passworded but the one I received did not work so I couldn’t get in. I had to wait an hour and forty-five minutes after the show ended before I could find a download.
I’ve been trying to figure out what Maryann is. Ms. Sexy X and I were discussing it and she said someone seriously suggested she was a hummingbird to which we both laughed. I said she’s some sort of weird minotaur lady with some sort of magic. Of course, MSX has read the books and has a much better idea than I do. It appears I was right in that she is a greek mythological character, though not a minotaur but something called a Maenad. I saw that elsewhere by accident and wiki’d it. It seems to fit - though I still don’t get her powers.
I knew something was up with Daphne. Obviously the scratches on the back were a dead giveaway but she came around at the time of Maryann. In this episode she turned into a pig… the one that was with her. Aha! The cliffhanger here is they were having a huge field orgy party with Maryann “hummingbirding,” as I now jokingly call it, and Daphne lures Sam there who is captured and looks to about to be sacrificed by Maryann.
The detective is annoying in his self pity but it’s worse so because of his voice and as MSX hit it perfectly it sounds like he’s trying to force it. That tends to make me want to clear my throat. I asked Ms. Sexy X if she noticed that huge mole on Maryann’s face and she did but I guess she didn’t pay attention to it. Everytime it zooms in on her face that’s all I see. I know I’m horrible. Well, MSX asked about Sookie’s gap in her teeth since she did the same with that and I said I do indeed stare at that too. Well, she did message me once jokingly pissed because now she stares at Maryann’s mole. Awwwesome!
Two mysteries are now going on. One is what Eggs is trying to recall about that campsite. I’m betting it’s the same ritual that’s going on in that field at the end. The other is how’d they know about Sookie and what’s going to happen to those two? What’s the deal with Bill’s maker and the Jason affair? This episode left us hanging on every front. DAMNIT!
