Jax asked, "How could I not see this coming?" and I gave the TV such severe side glare that my contact lens literally flew out of my eye.
Do you know who I would want standing next to me in my final moments? And I don't mean as I'm lying in my death bed at 90, waiting to take my last breath. I mean in a situation where I saw a sign that read: WARNING: ANVILS FALLING FROM THE SKY, YOUR SKULL WILL BE CRUSHED IF YOU ENTER, and I went ahead and strolled on in. I'd want Chibs, because regardless of how incredibly manic my decisions were, he'd be right beside me looking cool as can be and purring comforting words in that divine accent.
He even took a moment to remind Jax why he had started this whole bloody mess. Psst, it was to avenge Tara in case you'd lost track. Chibs is the epitome of "Ride or Die." You know what, I love you, too, Phillip.
As tonight's episode went on, I realized that Bobby is another one I wouldn't mind walking into that anvil shower with me. Evidently there are no body parts you can take from him that would make him reveal club information. That's dedication. He literally laughs in the face of danger; danger in this case being the middle name of Moses Cartwright (Mathew St. Patrick), a representative of August Marks.
Abel hit some kid with a metal lunch box and the preschool teacher, Ms. Harrison (Courtney Love), seemed to be the only person truly bothered by it. Well, besides the kid on the other side of the box, I'm sure. When she pointed out that Gemma's could be acting as a role model for Abel's aggression, Gemma said she'd be sure that next time Abel hit her with the box. It was very considerate of Gemma to make her point for her.
Of all the people who have died on this show due to Gemma's dishonesty, I don't think she ever looked as shaken as when she found her dead birds in her bed.
After meeting with Juice and Jarry, Unser quickly figured out what Juice's end game was for his time in prison. With only a handful of episodes left, there's little time for Unser to remain dense.
In an earlier episode this season, the Sons framed two guys for their assault on the Chinese's guns and heroine. Although he want not involved in the framing, it was later revealed that Jury, the President of the Indian Hills chapter of SoA, was the estranged father of one of the men, Gib O'Leary.
When Jax and Co. found out about the relation, they assumed that Jury had turned on them and set up a meeting. It was all very TV-motorcycle-gang-version-of-civil, until Jury told Jax that he had become everything that his father, John Teller, had been against. He explained that he and John had been close; that he knew the type of club he wished SAMCRO could've been. He also implied that although the rumor was that Clay Morrow had tampered with John's bike, that John probably killed himself. Jax's lips pursed into nothingness before punching Jury and shooting him in the head. Afterwards, he lied about Jury admitting to snitching to the Chinese, because that's what Tellers do.
They FINALLY showed a shot of Jax's pristine white sneakers splattered with Jury's blood. It was exquisite.
Abel, who had overheard Gemma confessing to Baby Thomas about killing Tara during last week's episode, asked Gemma is she understood what an "accident" was. Maybe this whole dead eye thing this kid's been doing all season - you know, what I've been complaining about him doing every time he pops up on screen - has been intentional. Maybe he's channeling every creepy child character ever, because he gave her a look that made me really uncomfortable.
Another small box from Moses was delivered to SAMCRO after Jax tried to negotiate terms. Bobby didn't need all his fingers anyway.
Juice killed a roach with his bare hands and I threw up a little in my mouth.
No Son, stuffed animal, limb or bug was safe in tonight's episode.
What do you think of everything's that has happened so far? The end is near. Which Teller boy will have a final showdown with Gemma? What body parts will Bobby be left with? Will Chibs' loyalty remain steady? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
