Continuity mistake: Saw VII takes place straight after Saw VI. In Saw VI we see Jill put Hoffman in the bear trap and leave. We then see that Hoffman spends around 45 seconds trying to get the trap off before putting in the bars on the window. In this film however, just after Jill closes the door we see the glass break. No delay. (00:08:20)

Hoffman corners Jill and puts a reverse bear trap on her head with no key, killing her. Then Hoffman is abducted by Dr. Gordon and Brad and Ryan. Dr. Gordon reveals that after he sawed off his own foot John nursed him back to health and told him to watch over Jill. Hoffman is trapped in the bathroom, chained to a pipe like Dr. Gordon in the first movie. Dr. Gordon leaves the bathroom after throwing the saw out off the bathroom, leaving Hoffman to die.

Trivia: The "Horsepower Trap" (the car trap involving Even and his friends) was an idea that writers Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan have tried to get into several "Saw" films before, only to be told by the producers that it was too gruesome and cruel. Knowing this was the intended final film, the producers finally allowed them to include the scene.

Answer: He, his wife and his daughter were abducted before he decided to work with Jigsaw. He didn't put them in danger. As for why he decided to work with Jigsaw following his ordeal, like other characters in the franchise, he either developed a level of Stockholm syndrome or he concluded that Jigsaw's methods were right, or a combination of both.
