Best line from True Blood season four episode four belongs to Eric Northman (played by Alexander Skarsgard). The 1,000+-year-old Viking vampire is suffering from amnesia after a run-in with a witch (played by Fiona Shaw), a run-in which has Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis), Jesus (Kevin Alejandro), and Tara (Rutina Wesley) freaked out over the possibility that once Eric regains his memory, he’ll hunt them down for their role in his memory loss.

Hiding out at Sookie’s house (which he actually now owns, in another departure from the books), Eric says, “If you kiss me, I promise you’ll be happy.” Swoon. Meanwhile, Bill (Stephen Moyer) finds out a relationship-ending secret, and Jason (Ryan Kwanten) continues to fight against the people of Hotshot who want him to father panther babies.

It was a jam-packed episode and a marked improvement over the first two episodes of season four.
