SOA - my god, an episode that didn't suck!

When he confronted Juice? Powerful scene that Juice played perfect

Nothing else needs to be said beyond that.

better then it has been. I'm pot committed with the show, so i have been enduring. getting down to the nitty gritty. i really don't have a sense for how it will end. hopefully, it will make sense. tonight was def a step in the right direction

But his accent has been disintegrating this season. He was never exactly flawless at sounding American, but somehow he keeps getting worse and worse.

Good for him for finally calling Jax on all his bullshit.

Is Uncer not piecing it all together. I mean, why bother with the scenes to this point where he's investigating and coming across some real whoppers? Its just not believable. The scene with Jax should have been more one sided and instead I found myself rooting against Uncer for being a twit.

Hunnan has gotten lazy with his accent. He should have worked on it more. But like him as Jax and as an actor.

I think i'm so sick of the show now that I maintained rolling my eyes atleast 10 times lastnight and couldn't wait for it to finish.

All signs pointing to Gemma shouldn't have taken 6.75 seasons, and the catalyst shouldn't have been a pre-schooler.

Its funny before he came on the show I cursed them for enlisting Jimmy Smits due to his ruining of Dexter, but he's been one of the few bright lights of the past few seasons.

couldn't have saved Dexter, that was a tough role and an awful plot, I didn't blame Smits.

That scene last night when he was on the phone listening to Jax relay the story of Tara's murder and him being in front of Gemma and they played it so we couldn't hear the conversation, but only saw Nero's reaction was possibly the best acted scene in the shows 7 seasons.

but he was pathetic on Dexter, and the show was ruined after just 3 seasons. Plenty of other reasons why that show was ruined which I won't clutter this thread with, but his addition was abysmal.

But like I said, he's been great on Sons, easily the best actor on the show outside of Perlman. Hunnam is an ok actor, and was/is definitely lazy with his accent, which I blame Sutter for for not noticing and doing retakes.

was shocked that the truth about Gemma came out this early. I expected maybe at the end of the 2nd to last episode. I figured should would be confronted and lie and weazel her way out of it like she has numerous times for other B.S. she has done thru out the show. That chase scene music was something out of the 70's movie/tv shows.

book it

Was absolutely tremendous in this episode. His whole reaction and facial expressions during the phone call with Jax was great. I actually watched that stupid Anarchy After word to see Smits talk about that scene. Even more credit to Smits was the guy had asked him if there was even anyone on the other end of the phone for the scene. He said no, Sutter told him to play it out for 30+ seconds and do as he pleased.....

I think Unser has known for a while that it was Gemma that killed Tara...he had to once he found out the asian guy they outed was arrested the same night in another state.

One problem I have with Unser is that he is still trying to protect Gemma...that is why he provoked Jax to hit him infront of the sheriff so they could put an APB out on him. He knows Jax has the mindset to kill her.

Absolutely, it was definitely more pronounced last night, especially in the scene with Juice...

.

he truly is one of the most hypocritical people on the show..

How long has he been in SAMCRO's pocket?

How has he not pieced together that Gemma was the one who killed Tara? its been right in his face this entire time but of course hi slove for Gemma changes everything...he says Jax doesnt care about Tara? maybe you should take your blinders off old man and look at your perfect little angel Gemma...

There has been so many signs thrown into his face that he has just blatantly ignored its unbelievable...

At this point i think the show's final scene is a fast forwrd 20 years with Abel sitting at the table where his fathers and John's ring and he is now the President of SAMCRO with Opie's son his VP...

..

Chucky: You're my best friend, Gemma.

*pause*

Gemma: I can accept that.

all going to come down to Indian Hills.

but he will lose the President seat...

I wonder how they are going to handle Robocop being the rat...

It was obvious and I know a lot of people called it on here too that he was the one who gave up the gun location to the Chinese. Not shocking that he got paid a nice fee for that information...

Kind of sucks that Lin had to still be killed...I would have liked to see a truce between the Chinese. This way Brown, Black (one niners) and White all just go after Marks. That storyline isn't going to die either. Wonder how they will fit that in with only two episodes remaining. Guess these last two are going to be like 3 hours long per episode.

He will die from a paste overdose at the age of 16.

ABEL: Is daddy going to be okaaay?

SUTTER: Cut! Not bad. Not bad. Again. A little more retarded.

ABEL: iz daadee going to be okaaay?

SUTTER: Cut! Good, good. Ok. One more time. Tard it up, son. Don't be afriad.

ABEL: iz dahdee g

SUTTER: More.

ABEL: iz dahdee gong b

SUTTER: More.

ABEL: is

SUTTER: Turn the tard up to eleven, kid! Lets go! Fuck. Can someone get me some lead paint?!

You're acquitting yourself nicely here.

He never smiles. He doesn't smile when he's playing in the schoolyard, when he's shown affection by loved ones, or anytime.

I get that he's seen some fucked up shit, but he's like serial killer status.

You should here how I talk to mine.

what if Sutter has Jax killed on his way to the farm to meet Wendy and Nero and never gets a chance to kil gemma...he lets her go and basically disowns her...

then they show 20 years later a person wearing a SAMCRO cut and all you here is Gbye Grandma like Abel said to Gemma as she as walking away...then you see the gun and the person holding it wearing Jax's and Jt's rings and then you see Gemma and she gets shot in the head...reaper up...

So Abel outs her as the killer and actually kills her...

But my biggest takeaway from the show at this point is that if I ever get cancer, I want the kind that Unser's got. I'll live forever!

he will be found walking the streets still saying, "Gbye Grandma."

Think about the kids life, he was born to a druggie mom and had to be in an incubator for his first few months in this world, got kidnapped and brought to Belfast where he was put on the black market for sale, only to have his "adoptive" parents gunned down, been in a pretty nice automobile wreck while his Grandmother was high, grew up thinking his mom was his mom, only to find out that was actually not his mom...

Yeah, I think he should be fucked up...kid plays it pretty well.

kids don't really comprehend that stuff at that age. Abel should be 7 or 8 and it would make more sense.

Kids at that age have short attention spans and just want to play. I'm not an expert by any means, merely an observation based off experience.

Its a minor gripe though as the whole show is 1 giant mess. It needs to be put out of its misery.

C'mon, we don't know the kid personally--let's be honest. He sucks as an actor. As does Marilyn Manson. Courtney Love is doing quite well actually. And in a fit of irony, turns Gemma in to the authorities.

It'll be in a way that protects the club and his family.

There's only two groups that could want to kill him. August Marks, but I don't think he has any troops to do the job. The Chinese as retaliation for Lin and the other Chinese guy.

Would kinda make sense that jax has to die because Gemma thought Tara was a rat and blamed it on the Chinese.

He should be fucked up, yeah. But at least, a half smile when he's on the swings maybe? He's less emotional than Eli manning.

guys do realize that Abel is played by twins.Are they both shitty actors or is this the way Sutter wants them to be protrayed.

under a certain age have to be twins...

Yep. They aren't allowed much time to shoot under child labor laws, so virtually all very young actors are twins.

putting in the Action Hero Jax car chase.

Gemma will take a bullet intended for Jax. Jax will kill Nero and Marks or the Chinese (I can't decide who plays the Norwegians here. I am guessing Marks is Fortinbras, but maybe not) will take over Charming.

Dodge insisted, obviously.

Liam and me, we're gonna fuck you up.

was that an homage to Steve McQueen, specifically Bullitt?
