    I don't think jax kills him. Juice has been tight with clay this season. Jax knows that. Frankie also told juice about clay, jax saw juice talking to Frankie right before Frankie was shot, but didn't hear what Frankie said.

    Jax wants, NEEDS, juice alone so he can press him for intel on Clay. I think (hope) that's why jax was waiting on him outside the house, and Gemma is the distraction to keep clay occupied. It doesn't seem very "Jax-like" for him to kill juice without talking to him. May be one of those deals where jax says "tell me what you know about clay, and I won't tell the club you're a rat"

    We noticed the thread on Sons of Anarchy and got curious so we started watching. We finished everything through season 4. (Netflix, we don't have TV.)

    It turns out to be a very interesting show. It does look a lot like a soap opera for guys, but since I don't watch soap operas, I can't be sure. But we do kind of enjoy it.

    Some interesting general stuff about the show.

    The guy who writes it is a real genous. He has made an enviroment with almost no standard moral values seem completely normal. Amazing!

    I was surprised when Jaxx claimed that he had no usable work skills. Here is a guy whose father/mother and stepfather own an auto repair facility and he never leaned to be a mechanic?

    I would have thought that an organization like this would have some sort of code of ethics, but these people lie to each other with no hesitation. And they seem perfectly williing to kill each other on mere suspicion. How about the two prospects who had to prove they didn't steal the coke, when everyone knew Juice was there, Juice WAS THE ONLY GUY WITH A KEY. Oh well.

    I was amazed that Opie didn't kill both Sig and Clay when he found out that they had murdered his wife. Okay, it's only a story, but still. And then he kills the ATF gal the same way his wife was killed. Come on Opie, she was an obnoxious, hateful, villiian with no redeeming value at all, but she wasn't the one that shot your wife. And do we have to remind you Opie, that they really intended to kill YOU?

    And then to make matters worse, when Opie finally comes out of his apparent weed-induced fog, he tries to kill Clay. And basically misses at point-blank range. (I'm beginning to think Glocks must be horribly inaccurate. I recall reading about some cops who shot a guy 38 times and hit him twice, once in the arm and once in the leg.)

    You can't help but like Opie even though he seems to be stoned to the extent that he can't decide whether he wants to be married to a porn star or not not to mention whether he should quit the club.. But then why would Jaxx pick him as VP after he takes over the club from Clay. Opie doesn't even show for the first big meeting, probably forgot.

    Then there are the letters. Okay, your wife and her boyfriend are plotting to kill you. And you know it. Any surprise that you would transfer your affections to Maureen over in Ireland? And you know they're trying to kill you, you're writing to Maureen about it, but you don't do anything to stop them? Based on Club ethical standards, there would have been no problem had Jaxx's dad, snuffed Clay and buried him off in the woods someplace.

    Back to Clay getting shot. Jaxx was there so he certainly can't claim ignorance. But he allows everyone to conclude that it was some other gang. So a bunch of guys get killed because the Sons, especiallly Tig, thinks that those other guys shot Clay. I don't understand why Jaxx can't just come out and tell everybody that Opie shot Clay because Clay killed Opie's wife and his father?

    But it's a fascinationg show. We can't wait until Netflix makes season 5 available. Based on this thread, we'll know the basics but the details will be eagerly anticipated.

    Great episode. Can't wait for next week. Looks like Jax finally gets a little piece of Clay. This season continues to amaze me.

    Agreed. Great episode last night and probably my favorite of the season.

    Only two episodes left! Hard to believe we were just talking about Tig's daughter being burned alive in episode 1.

    Any predictions as to how it ends? I'm curious how things wrap up with Pope and Clay. I'm not sure Clay makes it through the season finale.

    Here's a cool video of Charlie Hunnam and Mark Boone cutting off Ryan Hurt's beard with a samurai sword. It's okay to shed a few bro tears if you feel the need.

    Last weeks episode was another classic. What has got my mind going is will Tara make it through the season, she was followed by the guy that beat the crap out of Otto at the end of the show. Guess tonights episode will shiner greater detail into it but like every other episode this far, someone is going to die!

    Thoughts on the finale?

    I thought it was fantastic. Disturbingly violent, but that's the way the whole season has been.

    Going into the episode I had a feeling they weren't going to kill Tig, but I was getting nervous there for a while. Kim Coates is an awesome actor, by the way. When Jax asked Pope to take him inside the garage I thought the Mayans or Nero's crew would be in there waiting. Didn't expect Jax to wipe them all out single handily.

    I also wanted them to kill Clay off before this season was over. I think Ron Perlman as Clay is awesome, but the story line before this episode was getting painfully old and boring, and I was hoping it would just be over with. But him being framed by Jax is going to be an exciting story line for next season, and keeps the Damon Pope story line interesting and relevant, without everyone wondering when Pope would be killed.

    Finally, awesome song choice at the end of the episode, and very fitting.

    I think we all got our wish. Pope and Clay cleaned up and wow what a great finish.

    That scene where he hands Tig the gun to kill Pope gave me chills.

    Amazing season and finale, left framework for next season, plenty of questions, yet it didn't leave you with a total cliff hanger and 10 loose ends still not tied up.

    I called it as soon as Gemma threatened it at the season would end with Tara in jail, as that would be the only way to keep Jax in the club and her in the story line.


    I'm also excited Bobby is no longer VP, hoping Chibs takes over as he is my favorite character on the show.

    I had also been wondering when we were going to see the homeless girl (Jesus Christ). Was excited to see her make an appearance!

    It was a great episode. I agree with TEmbry on them not leaving a bunch if loose ends, but at the same time leaving it open to plot changes. Do you think Bobby will return to VP next year or even to the show at all? I have to admit, the dogfighting scene was a little tough to watch.

    Bobby will be back on the show, IMO. He just ripped off the VP patch, but he put his cut back on. He'll be back, but it'll be interesting to see in what capacity.
