- ABOUT THE EDITOR
Prideaux, Danny: Recently honorably discharged from the army, Danny is working part-time at the home builders’ supply store and several nights a week as a bouncer at Merlotte’s, keeping an eye on new bartender Kennedy Keyes. His interest is more than professional, and his attentions pay off when they begin seeing each other outside of work. They are at Merlotte’s for a drink when the bar is firebombed, and Danny reacts quickly to get Kennedy out of danger. He, Sam, Terry, and Antoine work to get the bar back in order so it can reopen. Danny also spends time in Merlotte’s without Kennedy and is there playing darts with Andy Bellefleur the night four thugs come in and start trouble. He stands his ground, along with Andy, and throws a dart at one of the assailants to distract him before the thug can deliver a blow. (DITF, DR)
Prudhomme, Rafe: Rafe, a Pelican State Title Company employee, briefly dates Arlene, getting her involved in his church, the Fellowship of the Sun. (Mentioned DD)
Pryor, Jeneen: Kevin’s mother is controlling of her son, keeping him close. (Mentioned DUD, CD, DTTW, DD, DAG)
Pryor, Kevin: Quiet and lean patrolman Kevin is usually partnered with Kenya, working the same shifts whenever possible. Notoriously mother-ridden, he shocks Andy Bellefleur when he speaks up to tell him that he cannot use Sookie’s abilities to solve cases after she finds Cody Cleary. He’s convinced that the answers must be found through evidence, not telepathy.
Kevin stands up for himself again when he and Kenya decide to move in together, despite the dismay of both families. (DUD, LDID, CD, DTTW, DAAD, DD, DAG, DITF; mentioned DR)
Puckett, Jeff: Jeff works as a bouncer at Hooligans, where his former lover Claude Crane strips. He is angry with Claude’s sister Claudette because she interfered in his relationship with Claude, so he becomes a suspect in Claudette’s death, but he cares too much for Claude to have hurt his sister. Claudine erases his memories of the evening when he is cleared, and Jeff leaves relaxed and happy, having gotten a good-night kiss from Claude. (FD)
Pulaski, Trish Graham (unspecified shifter): Wright ranch owner Trish monitors the anti-supe websites and is not surprised when told that Jim Collins is involved in the deaths of the dogs at the Los Colmillos County Animal Shelter, a shelter she personally raised the money to build. She joins her lover, Togo, and the other shifters to guard the Merlottes, escorting their cars to the church for Craig and Deidra’s wedding and taking blows herself while protecting them when the crowd gets violent. Trish is dazed and bleeding by the time they reach the church. (STW)
