If so, read what they have to say about their gruesome deaths. If not….
WARNING: WE MAY HAVE ALREADY SAID TOO MUCH, BUT BE FOREWARNED – THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD FROM LAST NIGHT’S SEASON FINALE OF TRUE BLOOD. IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN IT OR YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW, BYE!
A few weeks ago, creator Alan Ball warned us that there will be blood. He wasn’t kidding.
Several HUGE characters met their end in last night’s finale, including TWO of the show’s original cast members. Jesus was stabbed in the gut by Lafayette/ Marnie. Nan Flanagan was given a swift true death by Vampire Bill. And in the shocking final moments of the episode (unless you read the books…), werewolf Debbie Pelt shows up to shoot Sookie, but ends up blasting Tara’s brains to bits when Tara steps in to save her friend. In a rage, Sookie grabs the shotgun and blows Debbie’s head off, before returning to Tara to cradle her dead friend.
So, to recap, only Jesus still has his face intact.
So what is to come for these characters? Well, if we had to guess, this will be the last any of us see of Brit Morgan, Jessica Tuck and Kevin Alejandro. The trio are taking the news in stride however, with Jessica even explaining that she feel fortunate to have made it this long. As she explains:
“I was supposed to be in the first couple episodes, and I last for four years — so I am forever grateful for the time I’ve had on the show.”
But what of Rutina Wesley’s Tara? Will she be back for season five? Sure, have her head was missing when we last saw her, but in Bon Temps, there always seems to be a vampire around that is willing to save you with their blood. Could it be possible that Tara will return as a vamp? Maybe even a ghost? Or is this really the end for Sook’s BFF. When the question was posed to Rutina, she coyly explained:
“I don’t know what they have in store for next season. I haven’t seen any scripts, so I have no idea what’s going to happen. I’m either at death’s door, or I’m gone. That’s scary for an actor, but if my time has come, then my time has come — and what a way to go, saving your best friend’s life. It’s pretty cool that everyone’s going to be going, ‘Is she, or isn’t she?’ I’m excited and terrified all at the same time. I could be a ghost, I could die — it’s in the hands of our wonderful writers and the creative mind of Alan Ball.”
And if we know Alan, we know he’s got more than a few tricks up his sleeve. Here’s hoping he’s got something extra juicy saved for Tara.
Did U enjoy last nights finale? What are U hoping will happen in season five?
