We’ll get a flashback to WWII Germany where we’ll see a Were-Bitch (female were) in her 20s or 30s. She pleads for help from American soldier Sergeant Kinney, then suddenly transforms.

Furthering the storyline with Sam’s search for his family, Melinda Mickens appears in this episode. She’s in her 50s and dirt poor. She’s hung-over and lives in a shanty, and she’s a strong recurring role. Joe Lee Mickens, Melinda’s husband, also shows up in this episode. He’s poorly educated but figures out Sam’s link to his wife.

Ruby Jean Reynolds, an African-American woman in her late 40s to early 50s is clearly deranged. She’s intensely religious and viciously homophobic. Wait a minute – “Reynolds”? “Homophobic”? Sounds like a Lafayette storyline is emerging.

As previously reported, the show is casting Talbot, the King of Mississippi’s long-time trophy husband. The official casting call reveals more about the character, however. He’s extremely good-looking, like underwear model hot, with a sarcastic personality. He’ll first appear in episode 3.02 as he shows Bill around the mansion where he’s been “invited” to stay. Does this mean Bill was kidnapped by the King?

Jesus Velasquez is a recurring character in season 3 with the possibility of becoming a regular in season 4. He’s gay, Latino, and – naturally – gorgeous. A good-natured guy, he works as an orderly at a nursing home, caring for an elderly patient who makes racist remarks that he takes in stride. He first appears in episode 3.02.

Meanwhile, Tara gets into a confrontation with a pair of hillbillies, Shane and Kris, who disrespect someone who died recently (Eggs?). When one of the jerks refuses to apologize, Tara proceeds to beat him up.

And finally, we get a little insight into the biker gang previously mentioned as a character known as Creepy Biker is revealed as a werewolf and menaces Sookie. Too bad for him, she’s not the easy victim he anticipated.
