Whew, it was all a lot to take in. I don't feel they would kill Eric off like that, even though they have committed so much other sacrilege,one can't tell. It isn't over until he goes *splat* he could heal from the burns if Pam can get help there in time, or he finally remembers to "stop, drop and roll", He could burn a hole in the snow and fall right in too. And it looks like the next season will start with quite the feeding frenzy at the Bellfleur(?) Bar and Grill!
I’m not 100% on how Pam could help him, she’d have her own burny problems to deal with. It really does depend on how Eric will burn. Godric, burned within a couple minutes, the two times that a vampire did not spontaneously combust into flames in the sun, it was when they had a full belly of Sookie-blood. What kills me and makes me think, he’s probably dead, is he doesn’t run right away. He looks shocked and then falls to his knees, he doesn’t make a move to get away. There is shade all around him, but, I’m not sure if shade would help or if he’d have to be fully covered. At this point, I think I want to just call him dead. Because it really sucks to hope during the 9 month off season, just to have them dash all your hopes in the first 5 minutes of the next season.
