It is immediately clear how overwhelming it can be for a teenage girl to balance two people she loves in her life and the drug addiction that intrudes on their relationships. That very Halloween night, when Jules runs away, she discovers that her mom relapsed and is in the hospital. Jules’s mother has also been battling with addiction like Rue and had been making attempts at reconciliation.


The special reveals that while Jules and Rue were dating last season, Jules had also dealt with her mother’s return. While Euphoria has effortlessly unraveled Rue to uncover the hurt under the drug use, Jules has been struggling to carry the weight of her problems behind the scenes. We also get to see why Jules was so eager to run away, and it seems that it all has to do with Jules going through more than we, the audience, have seen. We now learn that Jules is grounded by her Dad for running away but is also forced to take part in mandatory therapy. The last time we saw Jules, she had abandoned Rue to jump on a train headed to New York. Euphoria’s Special Episode Part 2 focuses on Jules’s first therapy session and what’s been going on in her head. HBO delivered a two-part special with the first episode centered on Rue’s sobering chat with her sponsor, Ali, following a relapse.

While it doesn’t look like Euphoria‘s second season will be gracing our TV screens anytime soon, due to the pandemic, the creators have prepared a nice appetizer to hold us down in the meantime.
