In the previews for the next one, I for one am glad to see Jax wearing his patches and Clay asking "what would you do?". Turning point in the club for the good??

I liked this episode and it was very well written, however ultimately I'm a bit underwhelmed.

I believe Gemma telling Clay and Jax about what happened means that all of Clay and Jax's beef is on the back burner now, if not gone forever. The main thing now is to take care of Zobelle.

I also noticed in the previews that Jax has his VP patch back on and he grabbed them on the way out the door, I knew he was not leaving. Things are going to heat up between SAMCRO and the Skins for real. On the preview Clay asked Jax what he would do and he said "Kill em ALL!"

Is it Tuesday YET?

Tonight...

Still wish I could watch it live. I'll have to settle for internet watching late tonight or sometime in the next couple days.

There are a lot of layers to this show. The Gemma thing shows how committed/calculating she is. She took something that was meant to hurt the club and played it at the point where it could bring the club back together.

Just finished tonight's episode. I liked it but I can't wait to hear what other think.

I loved this episode, all kinds of things coming to the surface.

I must admit though, when I saw the preview of the coming "showdown", the first thing that came to mind was the News Team Brawl in "Ron Burgandy, Anchorman". ;) :r

"I killed a guy with a trident!" :r

It was great to see the club get all of their issues out in the open. And gathering a little intelligence for once. Look how much they found out after tailing people for one day. Like Chibs said, I don't know what they would do without Gemma.

I hope the prospect gets his elephant nuts sorted out. I LOL'd at that :r

He said we could expect Marcus Alvarez (Mayan Boss) to show up and say...

My $&*#@ DVR cut off the last 3-4 minutes!!! Stopped right as Clay was walking into the office to talk to Gemma.

I expected more violence in this episode, I hope they stop the "building up" soon and get to laying the smack down!

Let's just say they didn't just "talk". :ss

But they did do something else that ends with "k". :D

Yup...Clay laid the smackdown on Gemma for sure. :r

next weeks gonna be lead filled I believe.

Im still shocked at how information came out like it did. And how Opi handled it. Left her crying was epic.

but clay going to jax in the middle of hte night asking him to not leave, perfect end (hopefully) to their beef.

So......did anyone else notice the kiss between Gemma and Tig. I mean prior to him bending her over?

Uh....that was just weird. He was in her house, drinking vodka and then kissing Clay's wife???

Did I miss something?

I wondered if I missed something prior to that as well. Gemma didn't look too surprised when he kissed her and it was obvious just a bit later that she didn't mind it... weird.

Gemma earlier told the Doc that Clay woulnd't want her anymore because she was tainted. She wanted to feel desirable, but quickly reverted to a "victim mentality" when she turned around for Tig to be behind her. It wasn't about about Gemma and Tig as much as it was about Gemma and Clay.

Rather than a conscience, I think Tig knew finishing the deed would have been both a knife in the back of a friend, and possibly a death sentence.

what an awesome episode.

Wow! There were so many things that I did not expect in this episode. Everything just kind of all snowballed and came out at once. Chibbs talking with the ATF, details of Donna's death, Gemma and Tig (WTF btw). What a great episode. It feels like they packed so much into this one.

Not to mention Clay and his bullet-dodging adventure :)

I don't think that was it at all. I think Icehog really summed it up nicely. The psychology beyond that interaction was right on. Tig was also a wreck and needed validation. His whole reason for exiting has been in question/destroyed by killing Donna. He was a heartless badass but he had a very strict set of rules that made his role make sense. Killing Donna violated most of those and messed his ass up. He had been consistently slipping in each episode since then. I think the mushrooms opened the flood gates and he couldn't live with himself. I think he was ready to die when he admitted to killing Donna to Opie. I thought Opies reaction was pretty layered and nuanced. I definitely think the next few episodes are going to be a whole lotta hurt coming down on Zobelle. I still think that at some point Donna's death is going to be revisited. At least I hope so. Something like that doesn't just go away.

I have to go back to the kiss.

That was not a peck on the lips amongst friends.

That was a kiss that has happened before IMO.

I had that thought as well. I also thought back to him and Gemma, when Tig told Clay "I've always got your back", and told him what Gemma needed at the end. It could be that he felt he was doing what he needed to do to help save their relationship. Either that or he felt guilty about what happened. Either way, it did seem like that wasn't the first time.

It could have been alluding to a previous history, sexual or non-sexual we have no idea about their pre-show timeline history.

To me it was more two pretty messed up people, with a lot of personal history desperately reaching out to someone else in a time of need. A misery loves company moment. Tig stepped back because he realized that having sex with Gemma would take him further down the road he started on when he killed Donna. I think that made him realize he would rather be dead than continue that way and the only way to stay alive was to come clean to Opie and face the consequences even if meant letting Opie kill him. IMHO that was one of the more profound and well done sequences I have seen on television.

Re: Sons of Anarchy Season 2 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
So I'll give first impressions. Great episode, though BarneysFunGirl started doing the Jets v Sharks snap dance near the end, and was waiting for Brick and his trident to make an appearance..lol. I thought the "family" emphasis was very good. I think it helped to put faces on whom all that SAMCRO feels responsible.

I really liked the Tara/Jemma conversations that led to the Tara smackdown at the hospital. BarneysFunGirl works at a hospital (on the medical side) and could identify with the admin conflict.

I also really enjoyed Jax re-establishing himself as a bad arse with all the partners and with Weston (ahh, don't you love Rollins in that role) and Zobelle.

Best line--no question: Half a sack, s**t load of balls---still laughing over that one.

It'll be ok Darrell. You can go hibernate for the rest of the winter and come back out when the season 2 dvd's hit stores. that shoudl pacify you till season 3.

I'm with Darrell. Not ready for it to be over. Especially not ready to spend 6 months in agony wondering about what's going to happen next. I think Ranger_B is right. There's no way they can wrap everything up and there's sure to be a cliffhanger until next season (as if they need one to ensure people will tune back in).

10 hours and counting here.

I have no doubt. Look at what they do on Rescue Me each season. Tommy is bound to die sometime or another just hasnt yet.
