Here we are kids, the second to last episode for the series of True Blood. It’s been a wild 7 years and what do we have to show 562x374xeric-and-bill-true-blood-s7e9.jpg.pagespeed.ic.nRvnPHPuHHfor it? Well, the episode starts off with Bill not wanting to drink Sarah Newlins blood in exchange for a true death. This further solidifies the fact that he’s a complete idiot. He’s selfish and only cares about himself and doesn’t truly think about the ones he leaves behind.

Shortly after, Jessica and Sookie go to find Sam and find out that he’s gone. He leaves a thoughtful letter for Sookie, telling him he’s going to Chicago to be there for his baby. Jessica and James make their peace together, and she acknowledges that he would be better with Lafayette. This drives Jessica to go and tell Hoyt that they used to be together, pre-glamour. His girlfriend doesn’t very much like that and she throws him out. Enter Jason Stackhouse.

After Hoyt hears from Jessica everything about their old life together, when Jason arrives, Hoyt punches him and knocks him out. Eric and Bill talk it out about why Bill is killing himself. He doesn’t want to put Sookie anymore stress and wants her to live a normal life.
