Warlow True Blood: Sookie learns the truth about Ben - he's Warlow!
Warlow revealed! Andy’s faerie kids dead? Governor’s daughter goes vampire! Sam gets a new girlfriend – and a human one at that? So much to recap in “True Blood” Episode 64.

Ironically titled “At Last,” referring to the Etta James love song, the latest episode reveals that Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) has no love for Ben Flynn (Rob Kazinsky). That’s because she knows Ben isn’t a faerie/human hybrid like he claims.

Instead, he’s an unholy faerie/vampire mix. What’s more, he’s the dreaded Warlow, perhaps the world’s oldest vampire. And thanks to faerie blood coursing through his veins, he can walk in daylight – unlike any other vampire.

Sookie learns the truth about Ben/Warlow when she finds a drop of his powerful blood on her living room floor – blood that possibly saved the life of her brother Jason (Ryan Kwanten).

Jason and his faerie grandfather Niall (Rutger Hauer) also get wise to Warlow, but their attempt to kill him fails miserably. Jason is “glamored” into forgetting what transpired and Niall is dispatched into another dimension.

But Sookie the seductress is ready for this faerie/vampire whose soul battles between light and dark. She invites him for a candlelight dinner, dresses in a sexy outfit and laces her fried chicken with vampire-killing silver. When that doesn’t work, she moves the action to her couch.

Just when her suitor thinks he’s about to score, Sookie creates a white-hot ball of energy that could mean the “true death” for Warlow. And if Sookie unleashes that energy, she loses her faerie powers – forever.

Elsewhere, Tara (Rutina Wesley) frees the Governor’s daughter Willa (Amelia Rose Blaire) from the clutches of vampire Eric (Alexander Skarsgård). But rather than seek the protection of her vamp-hating father, Willa waits for Eric to find her.

“Do you really want to help me?” asks Eric, who bites Willa’s neck, turns her into a vampire and sends her home in a bloody nightgown.
