Finndo posted:As the season opened with a montage, I had this brief, amusing thought that they were, in fact, trolling this thread. I'm surprised there wasn't an extensive voice over where Jax waxes philosophical about his role as protector (serial killer) of the club. In reality Jax's diary would sound something like this: "9:55am killed another darkie. Had coffee and whisky. Ready to start the day now." Marilyn Manson white supremacist was like the cherry on top. When Gemma started talking to buff asian dude I had a pretty good idea of what was coming too. From that point onward I couldn't stop snickering. It's just so over the top and predictable in its horribleness.

I hope we at least get 9 or so good double cross mass murders to keep pace with last season.

Ya know, if the Chinese had actually killed Tara, wouldn't it kind of defeat the purpose to keep Jax in the dark? Why doesn't anyone ever bring this up?

Shouldn't she be called "Tara Knowles"? Or did we forget that she married Jax in season five? I dunno, maybe divorce proceedings made that happen, but I thought for sure you actually had to divorce before reverting to the surname. Unless she didn't take Jax's name. I don't even know.

Am I the only one that wishes they got Cheech Marin to be a Mayan? It wouldn't be the most ridiculous casting choice they made, and it would at least guarantee a few laughs. It's Cheech Marin in a biker gang for god's sake.

It works because on one hand it makes us hate Gemma more. On the other hand, the delivery makes that kid seem more suspicious of Gemma during this entire series outside of Uncer and his dead mother. That kid is gonna be a star in 30 years. We just saw Leo DiCaprio 2.0 right there in that scene, mark my word. That kid is TRULY Jax Teller's son "Were you there when Mommy went to Heaven? How do you know that's where she went? Are you ok Grandma?" Kid is how old? Already he's getting to the bottom of things faster than his dad and taking it to the table next. He's gonna be running that pre-school the next time we see him there, w/ slow, methodical shots going around the table while the kids color, much the same way that SOA take those overblown, obnoxious votes during the show's dramatic moments. Abel Teller will be running SAMCRO one day. It's destiny! Dead Snoopy fucked around with this message at 06:44 on Sep 17, 2014 |

What was the significance behind the shotgun Jax looks at in the van before they own the chinese and when the old guy/president of the different SoA chapter looks at the same shotgun before picking it up after finding his two boys dead at the end? I missed it.

I missed it. CODChimera posted:Ok serious question, what is going on? My interpretation: Jury [head of Indian Hills, longtime friend of The Tellers] brought in some muscle that wasn't even prospecting, let alone patched in for the Chinese job. Jax recognizes they're loose ends and moves to clean them up,and making them scapegoats when he speculates Lin will need someone to blame. They have no official affiliations ao they're perfect. Both Jury and Jax have a passing regard for the shotgun Jax loads w/ the drugs after the job. He leaves both behind w/ their dead bodies and Jury, seeing this, comes to the realization that Jax is behind the setup of them as scapegoats. Jury takes it hard for unknown reasons. Two possibilities. First, is that he's always had a questionable stomach for the real rough stuff and that's even referenced in the first season when Clay patches them over. Second, Jury possibly involved family unbeknownst to the club and Jax, unaware of this, has inadvertently murdered Jury's loved ones, possibly nephews but more likely sons, thus explaining the juxtaposition of Jax laying down w/ his boys and crying for the loss of their mother while Jury weeps for the loss of his own kin.

Maybe I missed it, but why did Juice even tie up Unser? Last episode he had him at gunpoint, and then this episode he was tied up by Juice in a bathtub. Then Juice grabs a knife and cuts him loose. Did Juice need to "think things over"? Unser didn't even know Juice was hiding out. We're two episodes in, what exactly is this season about? I've just seen the Sons go around and kill random people so far.

Did anyone of note die? I mean, I know 'of note' really doesn't apply to anyone but Chibs, but you know what I mean. I'll watch the episode eventually, but right now, REwatching House of Cards is a way better use of my tv time.

Which would be infinitely more effective — even on this show — if we had seen Jury since the fourth episode of season 1 (which aired six years ago next week, but who's counting)

More and more, watching this show is like watching somebody play Grand Theft Auto. <<Follow the Delivery Truck.

I kind of half watched the first couple episodes while playing video games and it did seem like the Sons were just going from place to place killing people for reasons I couldn't figure out. I assumed that was just because I wasn't paying full attention but according to this thread apparently not.

The entire show is based on people having zero communication skills. "These are just some dudes I use for muscle", instead of, "These people are either very close to me, or possibly related to me, which is why I like and trust them!" would probably have ensured that Jax didn't murder them!

Perhaps the strongest argument that Abel's not actually Jax's kid - he has succeeded in 2 scenes what his Jax has yet to accomplish. Patch him in, gang!
