To rescue Sookie from the other three vampires, Bill claims Sookie is his human. Malcolm offers to let Bill feed on Jerry, a young man they feed from. Sookie reads Jerry's mind, learning that he has Hepatitis D, which infects only vampires. Jerry sought to avenge his boyfriend, who was lost to vampire blood addiction, and attacks Sookie, but Bill knocks him unconscious. Diane questions how Sookie knew this, but Bill makes them leave. Sookie is left shaken and questioning her relationship with Bill. At Merlotte's, Sam and Tara close up for the night and discuss their loneliness, agreeing to a one night stand. Jason becomes put off by Dawn having sex with vampires. After an argument, Dawn kicks Jason out of her house, which is witnessed by Dawn's neighbor. Bill tells the other vampires to leave Sookie alone. They criticize him for "mainstreaming", suggesting that vampire's revealing themselves was a bad idea. Tara leaves home after an argument with her mother, and goes to stay with Lafayette. After a discussion with Adele, Sookie decides to give Bill another chance. Jason goes to Lafayette's to get some Viagra and is given a vial of vampire blood, instructed to take one or two drops of blood at a time. In return, Jason must dance on camera for Lafayette's website, with Tara getting a view of Jason's performance. When Dawn doesn't show up for work, Sookie visits her house and finds Dawn's remains in her bed.
