Like breaking bad, i think that this season is the next to last. Shit is getting nuts!

"!you ever bring that rotten pussy around my club or my family again, i will kill you." Holy shit that was crazy.

Guns were drawn, shots were fired, an innocent life was lost and Clay's leap over to the darkest of dark sides was finalized this week on Sons of Anarchy. Yup, just another day in the world of Charming.

Let's start with Clay's deal with the devil. The incredibly cool, entertaining devil named Romeo, that is.



This isn't the first time Clay has arranged the death of someone associated with SAMCRO, of course. But even though Opie was an actual member on season one, the President wasn't acting alone, nor was he acting in his own self interest. Clay and Tig truly believed Opie had turned rat. They did what they believed to be best for the club.

Clay's actions on "With an X" couldn't have been more of a contrast. He's looking to save his own murderous ass, plain and simple. Do I believe Tara will actually be killed? No. But her death wouldn't shock me, either, and not simply because I don't exactly believe in Unser's plan to scare her away, admirable as it might be. Jax isn't one to run. When he learns of that anonymous letter, he's far more likely to stick around Charming, guns ablaze. That won't be good for anyone.

Instead, I could foresee Tara going down just because Clay has become that cold-hearted. Everyone except Happy was at least somewhat torn over the way the club was torturing its Prospects (and, let's face it, he's Happy), but Clay's reaction? Sometimes you need to thin the herd. Shutter. Guess we shouldn't really be surprised. This is the same man who arranged for the death of SAMCRO's co-founder, after all.

RIP, JT... and RIP, Miles. Damn, Juice.

I'm still not buying this storyline enough. As I first wrote in my review last week, we just haven't seen enough racism within the club. I know it exists in this world, I know Kurt Sutter has blogged about it and Chibbs summed up why someone such as himself would go along with it well here. But think about the actions Juice has now taken: he stole the cocaine. He gunned down a fellow club member. He did all this because it's seriously that bad to have an African-American heritage? This point has scarcely been brought up in previous seasons and now it's driving a major character arc.

Elsewhere, Jax is a confused man. Does he want to be a part of this world or doesn't he? He's always been an especially soft soul for a biker, but he reveled in killing the Russian on the premiere. And, yes, he stood up for his family by beating down that porn star "whore" this week... but at some point he has to realize that such actions are not getting him farther away from the club, which was his stated goal to Tara when this season began.

Quite the opposite, in fact. Jax is burying himself deeper and deeper inside SAMCRO. He didn't look like a man plotting his escape when he handed that wad of cash to Tara last Tuesday night, did he?

We close with a cute little Tig story. No, cute is not typically a word associated with the man Gemma warned Tara to keep away from her new nanny, but the show has kept him surprisingly sensitive. There was the feud over a dog with Kozig, and there's always a vulnerability whenever Clay chooses someone else as his wing man. Tig just wants to be loved, people! And in place of love, he'll settle for pretty much bribing his daughter to visit him once in awhile.

Sons of Anarchy closed with another outstanding montage this week. It set the stage for the second half of a season in which Juice is a murderer with a secret; Clay is a heartless assassin; Jax is a protective family man; Unser is Tara's elderly angel; and Miles is six feet under. Be it Piney, Juice, Tara or the President himself, odds are strong that someone else we know well will join him in the near future.

I thought pinney forced clay to tell him somewhere around when he came in the clubhouse and tried to shoot clay.

Pretty sure he found out last season. Almost positive.

[Silverback]

This whole thing comes to a head when Jax finds out Clay put the hit out on Tara, and Tara lets him read the letters.

I say Jax takes Clay out, and stays to run the club the right way.

I stand corrected...

At the Teller-Morrow garage, Tig was no longer able to handle the guilt over killing Donna. Tig confessed to Opie that he killed Donna by mistake, thinking she was Opie. Tig told Opie that during Opie's most recent incarceration, Agent Stahl set him up to look like he was a rat. Opie beat up Tig, who didn't fight back at all. As the other club members approached to see what had happened between Opie and Tig, Opie left and looked for Agent Stahl. Opie found Stahl in her car. Opie surprised Stahl at gunpoint. Stahl apologized for setting Opie up and for Donna's death and begged for her life. Opie decided not to shoot her and told her to remember that a bad guy like himself spared her life. Opie walked away and Stahl broke down into tears. Opie remained loyal to the club and returned to the clubhouse. Stahl never charged Opie with the assualt.

from some random trivia site

I don't think he knows Clay's involvement in the murder though. It also makes sense as to why he got to pull the trigger on Stahl at the end of last season.

Opie knows that it was Clay's decision to have him killed. Everyone knows that Tig doesn't think for himself. But Opie also knows the reason behind it was to protect the club. He lives for the club and while obviously he isn't completely OK with them wanting him dead - he understands why.
