What I love most about screen caps is probably what you love, too–the catching of a “moment in time” detail that you just cannot get with the naked eye without literally taking the show apart scene-by-scene.
Some of the detail I missed watching “Timebomb” twice includes the very last caps here of human ‘timebomb’ Luke’s vest. In the screen caps you can clearly see the silver bullets and the wood bullets interwoven with his heavy silver chains and of course, the bomb. You also get a very clear idea of where in the room some of the key players are when the bomb goes off. For one, Sookie and Eric are clear on the other side of the room, side by side. It looks like Sookie is sitting and there are many people/vampires and a lot of furniture between her and the bomb.

Unfortunately, both Isabel who seems like the nicest vampire ever, and Godric are quite close to Luke and worse, Jason is standing right beside him. The word on the episode is that both Jason and Sookie are well enough to return to Bon Temps and “bond” so fragile human beings that they are, they still manage to survive the blast. It should be interesting to find out how Jason does this because it looks impossible.

Things are looking especially bad for Stan as the screen caps clearly show him getting to his feet and moving towards Luke and there is not word of him surviving.

It appears that Eric takes a silver bullet though I’m unclear if it is a result of Luke going *boom* or if there are Soldiers of the Sun ready to storm the building when Luke finishes his mission of death.

Bill is still outside and Lorena has been sent off so it is clear that they will live to see another day.

Godric too, survives this incident but from what the less discrete reviewers who have seen future episodes have said he doesn’t survive the season.
The book people–and though I’ve read every one I keep this show and the books separate–insist that Godric wants to die as the “Godfrey” character did in the Sookie Stackhouse series. That character was not Eric’s maker however though he was thousands of years old.
Whatever happens it will be entertaining and may put your head into a spin so strap in tightly for the rest of the ride.
