Andrew "Andy" Bellefleur is the acting sheriff of Renard Parish, lives in Bon Temps.

Early Life Edit

Andy Bellefleur was born into the once wealthy Bellefleur family, he along with his sister Portia lived with their parents in Bon Temps. Growing up Andy was close to his cousin Terry, however there was a jealousy between the two boys as Andy felt Terry was loved more by the family and Terry wanted to have the same privileges as Andy. Later in life Andy's father died, and his mother left the family for a race-car driver, and Andy moved with his Grandmother. As an adult Andy became a detective in Bon Temps and worked out of the Bon Temps Police Station. He was not shown much respect by the locals because they saw him as just "Andy" instead of an official law enforcer.

Season 1 Edit

Andy was the local detective who investigated a rash of murders. He was convinced that Jason Stackhouse was the killer, even going as far as to accuse him of killing his own grandmother. He was seen at every crime scene and was very bone-headed in his investigation. When Jason confessed to the murders, Andy dramatized this confession while relating the story at Merlotte's, making himself a town hero. However, when the killer was revealed to be René, he became the town laughingstock and took to drinking.

After drinking a few too many at Merlotte's, he was escorted outside by Sookie and Tara to wait for his sister to pick him up. Insisting that he was fine, he instead tried to find his car which had been moved. Once he finally located it, he found a dead body inside prompting him to say "That's not mine." ("You'll Be the Death of Me") The body was that of Nancy LeGuare who had had her heart cut out by a "Saucer Eyed" Eggs (but this was not known until the end of Season 2).

Season 2Edit

In season 2, Andy attempted to interrogate Tara and Lettie Mae while drunk which resulted in more humiliation. He then began frequenting Merlotte's, drinking heavily. While investigating a party at Maryann's, he saw the giant pig Tara had claimed to have seen, but it disappeared while his back was turned. Realizing something fishy was going on, he attempted to tell the other cops, but they thought he was drunk again and revoked his badge which only caused him to drink more.

One night while driving, he saw Sam and Daphne Landry (who had shape-shifted as a dog and a pig respectively), he recognized the pig as the one he had seen at Maryann's party. Andy chased the two, but tripped in the valley.("Hard-Hearted Hannah") By the time he got back to the party, everyone was under Maryann's spell. However, it did not affect him, and he inadvertently helped Sam escape by firing a shot with his pistol. Unfortunately, his arm was subsequently broken by a "Saucer Eyed" Terry.

He later showed up at Merlotte's and branded the entire town "Devil Worshipers". Everyone dismissed him, but Sam knew he was telling the truth.("Release Me")

He also appeared when Sam was arrested for Daphne's murder, claiming that Sam was the wrong guy, but the other cops ignored him.("Timebomb") Later, while hiding out in the Bon Temps Motel, Sam came to him for help. ("I Will Rise Up") He and Sam then went to Merlotte's to help Arlene, but when they arrived, they were ambushed by Terry and other "Saucer Eyed" people who chased the two into the walk-in freezer. While in the freezer, Andy grabbed some liquor "to keep his body heat up".

Andy then proceeded to tell Sam a story that his nanny, Annie, used to tell him about the country of the blind where the one eyed man who was king. He told Sam that he was the one eyed king and that he envied this, prompting Sam to reply that he didn't understand what Andy was saying.

Later Jason, armed with a nail gun and a chainsaw got everyone out and freed Sam and Andy from the freezer, but was attacked almost immediately after by the "Saucer Eyed" people. Much to Andy's dismay, Sam gave himself up to be sacrificed to the "God who comes". Later Andy helped Jason disguise himself as the "God who comes" and pretend to "smite" Sam who then shifted into a fly to make it seem as if he had died.("New World in My View") Andy and Jason, having no idea what had just happened, thought that Sam was dead, but later had things explained to them when it was revealed that he was a shifter.

Andy seemed to take this news in stride, unlike Jason who kept thinking of various perverse scenarios, like Sam shifting into a dog and having sex with a female dog. This image disgusted Andy, who then asked Jason "what kind of perverted mind would think up something like that?".

Jason persuaded Andy that it was their duty to save the people under Maryann's influence. Andy agreed and they both went to Sookie's house where everyone was partying including Maryann. They went toward the house but, within minutes, they were put under Maryann's spell. When she was defeated, they both woke up and couldn't remember anything. Jason convinced Andy that they must have done something right, and so they must be heroes to the town.

Andy gets his badge back at the end of season 2 when Bud admits he can't manage on his own.

Tara's boyfriend Egg's traumatized by the things he found out he had done goes to Andy and begs him to arrest him but Andy refuses saying he was under Maryann's control. Eggs becomes increasingly distressed and Jason seeing this thinking Andy was in trouble shoots Eggs dead. Andy takes the gun off him and wipes the fingerprints off them saying he'll take the rap and telling Jason to go.

Season 3Edit

Andy finds himself struggling with the lie he has told about killing Eggs. While in Merlotte's Terry recognizes the signs of Andy's struggle, thinking it is because it was the first time he has killed someone. Terry tells Andy he knows what it is like to have just gotten one's "first kill." The cousins share a strange but tender moment trading "I-love-you"s. Tara walks in raving that no one seems to care that Eggs is dead. Andy points out that Eggs confessed to the murders, but Tara is adamant he was no serial killer.

Andy sneaks over to Jason's house since Jason is freaking out over killing a man. Andy tells Jason that he has taken the heat for killing Eggs. Andy convinces Jason that the lie will get past Bud Dearborne but only if they keep their stories straight. Jason explains that he is trying to turn over a new leaf and be the 'New Jason' but Andy tells him that everyone will suspect them of lying if he does not go back to being the 'Old Jason' by adopting the motto of "Conscience off, dick on." ("Bad Blood")

Jason goes to see Andy about helping Sookie find Bill, but as he approaches the front of the station he watches as Andy is giving a statement to the press about the death of Eggs. Andy was not happy at all when he notices that Jason is there and offers to take him to lunch. Just as Jason and Andy take a table at Merlotte's there is a piece on the news about Andy. This prompts Jason, who is drunk, to make a public toast to Andy. Jason is acting upset that Andy is getting all the credit for killing Eggs. Andy tries to soothe Jason by telling him that he has potential. This causes Jason to profess Andy as his best friend.

Andy drives Jason home from Merlotte's but before Jason can get out of the car Andy gets a call about a meth bust happening in Hotshot . Jason ends up going with Andy and Andy demands that Jason stay with the car. Jason doesn't though and ends up meeting a strange woman who disappears into the woods when he asks her if she is alright. When Jason returns to the car he ends up tackling one of the drug dealers. ("Beautifully Broken")

Bud, Kenya and Andy examine a headless, handless body. Andy thinks a vampire did it. Bud has had enough and announces he quits. ("It Hurts Me Too")

After Bud Dearborne resigns as Sheriff of Renard Perish, Andy is made acting Sheriff. Not long after his promotion, he is blackmailed by Jason Stackhouse into making him a deputy. To which Andy reluctantly agrees and is in the process of fast-tracking Jason to deputy, meanwhile Jason helps around the office, washes the police cruisers and typically tells people "I'm a cop...well...I'm almost a cop." ("9 Crimes")("Trouble")

Andy is consulted by Sam about reports of dog fights and Andy tells him about reports of dog fights in a nearby parish. ("I Got a Right to Sing the Blues") Andy also has to chase Jason out of the station when Jason is trying to get information out of T-Dub about his new love interest. ("Hitting the Ground")

While Alcide is staying with Sookie, Andy and Jason arrive asking Sookie to press charges against Bill for nearly killing her. But Sookie refuses. ("Night on the Sun")

When Jason shows up at the police station with Crystal they are informed by Andy that Kevin was ambushed the night before after someone called in a report of a man tied up with vampire blood on his person. Jason tries to convince Andy that he should try to tie the man who jumped Kevin with the drug dealers in Hotshot. ("Everything Is Broken")

Andy is at Merlotte's when Tara comes in. She sits down with Andy and blankly stares at him while he prattles on. Eventually she tells him about knowing he didn't shoot Eggs. She calls him a bunch of names but indicates she doesn't plan on ratting him out. Andy admits knowing everything was really Maryann's fault and wishes he could have done something different to keep Eggs alive. He says Jason had no idea what Eggs was doing and apologizes to Tara. ("Fresh Blood")

The DEA goes to the police department preparing to bust Hotshot. Jason tries to convince Andy they need to stop the agents because of the innocent people, but won't tell him why. Jason runs out and Andy tells him that if he warns Hotshot he'll never be a cop. The DEA heads to Hot Shot but leave Andy behind with the charge of getting the head DEA agent, Sgt Mitch Coburn, a pack of Lucky's.

While waiting on the DEA agents to return, Andy is again examining an Evidence stash of V that he is keeping in his desk. He appears to be considering trying it. The DEA brings in Jason, in cuffs, furious that Jason tipped off the Meth/V dealers to the raid. Andy tells Jason he's blown his best chance to be a cop. Jason responds he's okay with it, since he did the right thing. ("Evil is Going On")

Season 4Edit

Andy is struggling with a V addiction and harasses Lafayette at Merlottes. Jason has to come in and help keep Andy off of him.

While Bill is courting Portia, Andy's sister, it is discovered that Bill is in fact Andy's Great-great-great-great grandfather. After finding Sarah Compton's name in the Bellefleur's family bible, both Bill and his great-great granddaughter Caroline (Andy and Portia's grandmother) agree that the courtship between Bill and Portia must end. Portia however, confronts him soon after, stating that in many states it is legal for cousins to marry. Incestuous behavior is considered taboo is because of the possibility of genetic problems in offspring. This should not matter between Portia and Bill however since vampires and humans can not reproduce together anyway. ("She's Not There")

Returning to Hotshot, Louisiana, the Werepanther trailer park, Andy Bellefleur drives up in a frenzy, using supposedly official police business to try to scare some V out of the people. Crystal, hopped up on V, jumps on top of a still-bound Jason and stuffs a rag in his mouth to keep him from screaming and alerting Andy, saying they only have to wait a little longer before they can be together forever. But outside, Andy's fist is pumping open and closed anxiously. Felton recognizes this side-effect of V-withdrawal, and sends one of the elderly Hotshot residents up to Andy with a vial of V. Andy hungrily seizes it, informs everyone loudly that he's taking it as official evidence, and quickly drives off.("You Smell Like Dinner")

Bill pays a visit to Portia Bellefleur and her grandmother Caroline Bellefleur. Andy, who is living in the large home, comes downstairs to leave, but is prompted to stay by his grandmother.("I'm Alive and on Fire") Sam is pulled over while trying to help Tommy get rid of the dead bodies in the van. Andy makes Sam open the back of the van. Tommy has shifted into an alligator. Sam says he found the gator near some dumpsters and was bringing it to the swamp. ("Me and the Devil") Andy comes by to help with the homes that were burnt in the freak fire that occured in Terry and Arlenes house, and ends up exchanging threats with Sam. He later assists Holly by lifting a chair and asks her out on a date to which Holly accepts. ("I Wish I Was the Moon")

Assumingly the next day, Andy comes into Merlotte's and the date between Andy and Holly ensues. He brought her Winn-Dixie flowers that he got on sale, and the short lived "date" is complicated by Andy's V withdrawal. He ends up rudely dashing out of the bar, telling Holly that this was a mistake and takes back his flowers as well.

Later, Andy and Jason investigate the peculiar death of newly discovered vampire, Beulah Carter. Andy exhibits signs of desperation as he is tempted to consume the blood of a destroyed vampire in order to get high. However, Jason intervenes and prevents him from doing so in public. Arlene and Terry are distraught over Mikey's kidnapping. Jason and Andy try to figure out what happened when Jason's phone rings. Hoyt tells him that Lafayette has the baby. Andy leaves the room to get some pants for Hoyt, but instead downs a vial of V he found in the sofa cushions. ("Cold Grey Light of Dawn")

Jason, a pants-less Hoyt and Andy are now outside of Hoyt's home. Andy is pumped with V and approaches the scene. He tells Lafayette, who is being possessed by Mavis, to let him in. Jason, fearing for Mikey's safety, tells Andy that the police rules dictate to diffuse a situation. Ignoring Jason, Andy breaks the door down and Lafayette/Mavis refuses to give up Mikey. Terry and Arlene show up soon after and with the Help of Jesus Velasquez are able to save both Mikey and Lafayette. Once the ordeal with Mavis is over, Jason admits his disappointment and lack of faith to Andy. ("Let's Get Out of Here")

In Andy's room, Terry and Arlene wake, and yell at him for having V in the house. He denies that it’s his and attempts to convince them it’s evidence. Arlene yells at him and says that he’s not going to be able to see her babies until he gets clean. Terry takes Andy to "Fort Bellefleur," a fort where Andy, Terry, and possibly Portia once played as a children. It is then revealed that Andy took care of Terry after he had returned from military service in Afghanistan with Shell-Shock. Andy says that he’s a better man on V, and that he doesn't disappoint those around him while using the drug, but Terry doesn't believe him, and convinces Andy that he is just as good of a man off V, than he is on it. Terry challenges Andy to shooting their guns at cans, and if he can't make one shot, than he is truly addicted to V and needs help. Andy keeps missing all of his shots because of V withdrawal and loses.

While this is happening, revelations of the Bellefleur history surface, it is revealed that when they were younger, Terry's family was broke, and Andy's mother ran off, after his father had passed away. The cousins begin to fight, and Terry holds Andy down, forcing him to say that he won’t do V anymore. They make amends and tell each other, “I love you”. Andy says that he’s not going to relapse. Terry tells him to walk all the way home as the first step to recovery. ("Burning Down the House")

During his walk, a fairy named Maurella erupts from what seems to be a Chandelier of light. After their initial meeting, where Maurella thinks Andy is a vampire due to smelling like one from his previous V usage and blasting him with her power of Photokinesis, Maurella and Andy share light through the touch of their fingers, and make love in the woods. It can be presumed that Maurella mated with Andy in order to produce a Human Fairy Hybrid offspring, but we have yet to see the outcome of their rendezvous. As Andy arrives at home, he meets a waiting Arlene telling him Terry was worried sick about him. He tells her about his encounter with Maurella in the woods, but Arlene believes he was still hallucinating from the V usage. ("Soul of Fire")

The next day, Andy confronts Holly about the reason behind his sudden departure during their failed date. He explained that he was on V in order to strengthen his self-image and promote confidence, and assured her that he was sober and still willing to pursue a relationship with her. Holly then asks him for a hug. ("And When I Die")
