7. Burning House of Love

Complete story — includes the ending

After sleeping together, Bill and Sookie soak in a warm bath. She feels comfortable enough to reveal a very dark secret. After sleeping with Bill, Sookie becomes comfortable with him to reveal she was molested by her uncle Bartlett. Unbeknownst to Sookie, Bill plans to kill Bartlett as revenge. Meanwhile, Jason desperately tries to score more V from Lafayette, going as far as to take some of Adele's old silver to sell, before Sookie stops him. Jason visits Fangtasia, foolishly attempting to buy from the vampire bartender, Longshadow. A young woman named Amy pretends to be Jason's girlfriend, getting out of trouble with a promise of V. After her mother makes a scene at the bank, Tara agrees to pay for Lettie Mae's treatment. They visit Miss Jeanette, a witch doctor, who "exorcizes" Lettie Mae, but tells Tara that she has a worse demon than her mother's, but is dismissed. At Merlotte's, Sam and Arlene are very critical of Sookie's decision to sleep with Bill and let him feed, and she tells them to mind their business. Meanwhile, Bill visits and kills uncle Bartlett, dumping his body in the river. Merlotte's is crashed by Malcolm, Diane and Liam who menace the patrons before Bill shows up in time to stop them. Bill agrees goes with them and stops messing around with humans, leaving Sookie heartbroken. Jason takes Amy home, and the two do V. Chuck, Wayne and Royce, furious at the trio of vampires, plot to kill them. Sookie tries to get Sam to intervene, but he refuses to get involved. The next morning, the three rednecks set fire to the vampire trio's safehouse. Sookie races to the vampire trio's house, finding rescue workers pulling four burnt coffins out of the charred remains.
