Seven years, 198 plot lines, and one iconic white dress later, it’s finally here — “True Blood” is coming to an end.

Now, if we were the guessing type, we’d guess that the August 24 series finale, “Thank You,” will largely focus on Sookie (Anna Paquin), Bill (Stephen Moyer), Eric (Alexander Skarsgard), and Pam (Kristin Bauer van Straten), since prettttty much everybody else on the show has already experienced a happy-ish ending: Jessica is back with Hoyt, Jason is learning how to not have sex with everybody, Andy is set to marry/live in domestic bliss with Holly, Arlene and Lafayette have found love, Lettie Mae has found solace, and Sam got the hell out of dodge.

But some people still have menacing threats like Hep V and Sarah Newlin (sorry, “Noomi”) to deal with, and here’s what we hope to see with all of them:

1. Sookie’s choice.

No, not that choice — love-wise she’s already picked Bill, so that matter is said and done, as long as he decides to live. What we want to see is Sookie choosing whether or not to become a vampire. The last couple of episodes have made it clear that Sookie will always be attracted to them, so it’s a very natural conclusion for her character to reach to join the pack.

Though she is Hep V positive, so let’s hope she takes a bite out of Sarah if/when she decides to take the plunge.

2. All the Pam and Eric they can possibly muster.

Ch-ch-ch-changes: the cornerstone of any internal growth spurt — sort of like the one Taylor Swift has undergone in the past two years. She’s shaking off any criticism and figuring out what feminism means to her. A topic of which her BFF Lena Dunham is quite fond. Natch.

The “Girls” showrunner/actor/doer-of-all-the-things tweeted in support of Swift and her evolution and growth on the matter — a change from her earlier days of declaring herself not a feminist.

The article in question was Friday’s profile of Swift in U.K. paper The Guardian, wherein the singer clarifies her opinion on the women’s equality movement and whether or not she considers herself a feminist.

“As a teenager, I didn’t understand that saying you’re a feminist is just saying that you hope women and men will have equal rights and equal opportunities,” said Swift.

“For so long it’s been made to seem like something where you’d picket against the opposite sex, whereas it’s not about that at all,” Swift said, crediting a lot of her own acceptance and understanding of the term to Dunham herself. “Becoming friends with Lena – without her preaching to me, but just seeing why she believes what she believes, why she says what she says, why she stands for what she stands for – has made me realize that I’ve been taking a feminist stance without actually saying so.”
