I don't know ... who Clay's hitting, except for you. I'm sure he's hitting you, cause you're his wife and all.

Well the whole Donna thing didn't blow up as big as I thought it would be. Those mushrooms really worked over Tig.

WTF at Tig and Gemma??? Thats one ballpark he shouldn't be playing in.

I knew exactly what Piney was doing when he got off his bike and grabbed the gun. It's kinda a good thing the old man cant aim for shit but IMHO, Clay deserved that for what he did to Donna. Stahl may have clear Opie's debt and such but Clay made the call.

Chibs did the right thing telling the club the truth about going to ATF.

It's awesome that Jax is staying

Major props to Clay for actually giving in and being smart this time to take down Zobelle strategically.

HOLY SHIT! NEXT WEEK IS GONNA BE AWESOME!!

I don't even know where to start with this episode. I've been out of it today...way too much stuff going on at work lately and way too little sleep. This was hands down the best episode I feel they've done yet. There could have been so much that happened and nothing really went like I thought. Now maybe that is because I'm just off today, but I think its a strength of a show.

We knew Clay and Jax were going to reconcile, but I didn't think it would play out like that.

Tig and Gemma...yowzer.

I really enjoyed the way Opie handled his "Stahl" demons. He's quickly moving into the top of my favorite character list.

Next week is going to be sweet.

Wow, this episode left me in total shock. It was amazing, and yet nothing that I expected to happen. Now that Opie is reading the John Teller manuscript it obviously cements his ties with Jacks. But what his thoughts on where the club should go will be interesting.

I understand why Gemma attempted what she did with Tig. But at the same time it was a little revolting to watch. It's good to see she's finally getting some clarity after talking to the priest.

I expected Opie to kill SOMEONE, anyone, after finding out the truth about Donna. I'm relieved he didn't and kind of awed that he had the power to manipulate Stahl emotionally to breakdown.

The last two episodes are going to be unbelievably great if the previous episodes in the season are any indication. My only issue is they seem to be wrapping things up a little too orderly and quickly. I didn't expect Gemma to reveal her rape so quickly, nor did I expect Opie to find out the truth about Donna this season. I'm intrigued by where this is all going...

Go Clay! That was the best move ever. Gemma just needed to know she wasn't repulsive when she got with Tig. Tig was cool-he has got to feel a hell of a lot better. Alveraz knows Zobelle is playing him. I am hoping Sthal doesn't give up Chibbs in part because of Opie bracing her at her car. Jax was good, and I really hope Weston finds out its never been about race.Great episode. Thanks Kurt

Like someone else said, I don't even know where to start with this episode...
First let me just say about the show overall, I was hooked from the beginning last season but this season is even more phenomonal, it has me by the heart. It is so good it pulls you in and it makes you feel for every character, you feel like you know them and identify with them and you root for them, you're not just watching a shallow TV show. I have cried with them more than once this season. I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!

So anyway back to the episode, you could totally feel Tig's relief after he got Donna off his chest and Opie took it really well, considering, before I wanted Clay and Tig to pay badly for what they did. But it impacted Tig so immensely and he was so remorseful that you could actually forgive him, not forget but forgive & let the fact that he has to live with that for the rest of his life be punishment enough. Also I think Clay is being smarter now & the way he forgave Piney was really cool, the old Clay would've just offed him right there I think.
This was definitely a pivotal episode, as someone twittered, the tension between Jax & Clay fizzles out as they reunite against Gemma's rape, and the truth about Donna's death coming out relieved so much more tension. It's like the club has healed, they're whole again and will be stronger than ever. They finally all agree & know what they need to do to exact their revenge on Zobelle. I think they're finally going to be able to deal him a huge blow and I can't wait!!!

Off subject did anyone else think Stahl's face when Opie confronted her looked like a really botched plastic surgery job? She looked like an alien, LOL.

Fantastic episode! I loved the fact that they wrapped up some things, and not in the way you'd expect. Katie Segal is GREAT in this series, and should get an Emmy. Tig- might finally be able to move on. The way he stepped in front of Clay when Piney was shooting said it all. Opie- What he did to Stahl made me cheer. Him and Jax are back on the same page, and after he reads the manuscript, it will be interesting to see what his opinions are. Clay- For a while I was really not liking him, but I am happy to see his character being smarter. Tara- I like her more and more. The way she helped Gemma says alot. Gemma- Best performance by anyone by far. When shes sitting at the table, smoking a joint, you are hanging on every word. Jax- My favorite ;) the way him and Clay are acting at the table, nodding to each other, the eye contact, you know they in aggrement and realize they balance each other out.

Yeah, I noticed that as well.
I had a break from the usual Tuesday night TV watching, and started watching some of this early last night (when it aired), and when I saw Tig and Gemma going at it, my thoughts were pretty much WTF????

I'm glad to see that Clay's catching on to LOAN's tricks and is actually going to be playing the game by their rules. This will make for an incredibly good final two episodes of the season.

If (when) we get a season 3, I don't think we'll see "chief" Unser in it. Unser, maybe, but he's all but passed that torch on to Hale now, and that could be one of the more interesting developments towards sesaon 3.

I don't expect the tension between Jax and Clay to wind up this quickly, there's going to still be some turbulence there, it just wouldn't be the show without that. Now that Jax has Opie on his side, though, it's going to be an interesting turn. Now that Jax, Opie and Piney have read the book, who's next?

Speaking of Piney, this was actually a pretty good episode for him as well. I mean holy damn, the man grew a pair this episode! I can see why he did what he did, I think anyone here could, but wow, that was just unexpected for him.

I loved Tara breaking down in the early parts of the episode, it was just funny to see that, to me anyways.

All around, a great episode. If it hadn't been for the previous 90 minute episide , I would say this one would make the best one of the year. We've still got 2 more to go though!!!

What can you say about this episode that hasn't already been said??? It was the best to date. I know I have said that in the past. But... It just keeps getting better! The whole cast was excellent! Kudos to the writers and Mr. Sutter.

Wow amazing!


I can't wait for next week this will be even better I just know it.

this was by far the best. tig was great ,he needed balls to confess to opie and showed amazing self control with gemma which i didn't expect ,usually tig is all about gettin some but he stoped himself. i first thought opie would have shot tig dead right there but he realized it was Stahl who killed donna not tig. tig is now my favorite. donnas death was tearing him apart all season and he finally let it out

Clay and Jax mending fences was great. it was what the club needed. when jax gave abel to clay i didn't know what he would do but when clay sat holding abel he seemed more human and wasn't afraid of being vuenerable. zobel and weston were dead when jax said "we kill them all" without a single ounce of pity in his eye
