Welcome to Sons of Anarchy Fans. I'm a huge fan of the show and has been for a good while. I didn't watch season 1 & 2 on FX although I finished them both on dvd before season 3 from then on I watched it on t.v.. My favorite character is Jax Teller and my least is Clay Morrow. This is my blog dedicated to my love for the show and Jax hehe:) I'm a little behind on starting this blog but due to computer issues and slow connections i HAVENT had the time to sit here and make this without wanting to break my laptop in half lol. Season 4 just ended omg :( and wow what shocking ass twists!!! It's about damn time Jax read the letters,and time he took over SamCro!!!!! GO JAX :) I hate Clay he's one sick asshole. I just wonder if Opie will take the spot as V.P. I hope so, if not him then Chibbs. I love Chibbs he's awesome.anyways.....let's recap on season 4
The imprisoned SAMCRO members leave the penitentiary after their 14
month stay and are welcomed home by Lieutenant Eli Roosevelt of the San
Joaquin Sheriffs' Department, the new law enforcement presence in
Charming. He forbids any paroled members from wearing
club cuts
in his jurisdiction, declaring them to be a form of gang association.
To Clay's displeasure, the club learns that Jacob Hale has fostered the
construction of a new suburban development. US Attorney Lincoln Potter
seeks the help of Lieutenant Roosevelt to build a
RICO
case against SAMCRO. On the eve of Opie's wedding, Jax proposes to
Tara, who accepts when Jax explains that he plans to leave the club. The
Sons prepare to trade guns with the Russians, using the guise of Opie's
wedding as a cover to avoid the law. In retaliation for an attack on
Jax in prison, SAMCRO betrays the Russians and murders several of the
group – including an undercover agent working with Potter.
After Gemma finds one of Maureen's notes in Tara's belongings, she
questions Clay on the allegiance of Jax and Tara to the club.
Eventually, she asks Tara about the notes, who openly denies knowledge
of their existence.
Jax and Clay meet with Alvarez and Galindo cartel member Romeo Parada (
Danny Trejo)
to negotiate gun trafficking. To Jax's surprise, Clay agrees to mule
cocaine for the cartel in exchange for cash and protection from the
Russians. Jax realizes that Clay is taking risks in order to stockpile
money for when he leaves the club. Jax makes a private deal with Clay
where he agrees to the trafficking, on the condition that when Clay
leaves, he does also, and Opie becomes president. The rest of SAMCRO is
split on the decision to mule cocaine. After much discussion, the vote
passes 6–5, but causes a schism in the club.
As SAMCRO makes their first gun run for the cartel, Clay's arthritis
worsens. Gemma warns Piney against digging up the past with Tara. Potter
continues to stir up trouble with the club, informing Otto that Bobby
was sleeping with Luanne prior to her death.
As the search for the letters continues, it is confirmed that Clay
had Jax's father murdered to stop him from ending the gun running
arrangement with the IRA. Unser and Gemma are also complicit in that
they either knew and/or covered up the "accident".
Eventually, Juice's paranoia of the club knowing his African American
origins grows to the point that he makes more contacts with Roosevelt,
who makes it clear he needs a sample of the cocaine load if he wants
protection. Juice successfully steals one brick, but he falls asleep
before he can take a sample and return the brick, so he must hide it
before being discovered. The club learns about the missing cocaine which
causes an internal conflict between SAMCRO and the Mayans, forcing both
clubs to test their members to see if they are guilty of stealing the
brick. Phil and Ratboy, two of SAMCRO's prospects, fall under suspicion
and undergo
Russian Roulette
amongst other tests of their commitment to the club. Juice, feeling
guilty that the prospects are suffering for his mistake, tries to
retrieve the brick he stole, but is caught by Miles. When Miles tries to
take Juice back to the warehouse to reveal the theft, the two fight,
and Juice shoots and kills Miles, framing him for the missing drugs.
Romeo arrives at the warehouse and verifies the successful delivery of
the cocaine. Clay asks Romeo for help to kill Tara to keep his secret of
John Teller's murder hidden, telling Romeo only that the doctor has
information that could compromise their business.
As the club goes to one of Alvarez's drug laboratories to inspect the
operation, they are ambushed and shot by a crew who kills several
Mayans and wounds Alvarez. Jax gives chase and learns that the attackers
were from the Lobo Sonora cartel, the rivals of the Galindo Cartel. The
escalating violence gives SAMCRO members second thoughts, especially
Bobby, who calls a vote for a new president nominating himself. Clay
angrily agrees. That night, Juice attempts suicide by hanging himself in
a tree, but the branch breaks and he fails. The following day, the vote
for the new president begins with Clay and Tig voting against Bobby,
but the vote is interrupted by an attack by Los Sonora on the garage and
clubhouse. They manage to catch a one of the attackers who, under
questioning using truth serum, reveals a possible traitor in the Mayan
ranks. The club plans to use the traitor to send false information to
Los Sonora, luring them into an ambush. When the plan fails, SAMCRO
finds a truck with the beheaded bodies of Mayans and the SAMTAZ
President, Armando, raising tensions over the drug muling even higher.
Jax confronts Piney about his relationship with Clay, confirming once
more that he will not follow in his father's footsteps. Feeling cornered
by Piney's threat to show the letters to the club, Clay visits Piney at
the cabin demanding the letters. When Piney refuses, Clay appears to
leave, only to burst back through the door and shoot Piney with his own
shotgun, killing him. In an attempt to implicate Los Sonora for the
killing, Clay paints the initials LS on a photo of the First 9 in
Piney's blood.
The club receives information from the Galindo Cartel that suggests
the One-Niners are working with Los Sonora, while Clay sets a meeting
between the Irish Kings and Galindo for new, high-powered weaponry. The
club decides to arrange a meeting with Laroy of the One-Niners, at which
the Galindo Cartel appears and a brief fight ensues, but they instead
use Laroy as a way to drag Sonora's men into a trap. This fails,
however, as the Sonora Cartel members are equipped with destructive
explosive weaponry which they use to escape. When Galindo Cartel member
Luis wants to kill the Niners, Jax manages to save them by having them
side with them, at the same time Luis gives Clay a cellphone for his
contact to kill Tara. him, but Gemma convinces him otherwise and Unser
plans to use the blame Clay put on Sonora for a new plan. Gemma talks
with Tara, who tells Gemma that the letters would put Jax deeper into
the club out of guilt, so she won't show them to him. Juice is cornered
by Lincoln Potter, who seemingly persuades Otto after knowing that
Georgie had an alibi and that Bobby lied to him, letting him know that
they have more than enough proof to potentially arrest every charter of
the club, but that he wants the Real IRA. Jax confronts Clay about
letting Bobby know he wants to quit the club and for promising him the
Presidency over Opie as was the deal. Clay blames Jax's changes on Tara
to which he warns him to never insult Tara again. This leads to a talk
with Gemma, who assures Clay that Tara won't let Jax read the letters
and makes him promise to not hurt Tara. However, Clay later uses the
cellphone given by Luis to contract the hit on Tara.
The next morning, Clay takes $25,000 of personal savings to pay the
contract to kill Tara. Unaware that Jax was going to escort Tara along
with Abel and Thomas, Clay desperately tries to call back the hit, but
is unsuccessful, and Tara is nearly abducted and gets a severe injury to
her right hand that Tara believes is permanent. Clay meets Romeo and
tries to end the hit but is convinced that Tara is better off dead, to
which he reluctantly agrees. The club and The Mayans go meet Laroy to
contact Lobo Sonora; however, due to the murder of 3 One-Niners, Laroy's
men gun down a Mayan for being Mexican. This sparks a brief but intense
fight that is stopped by Laroy who demands both clubs to leave. Jax
tells Opie that he wants to quit the club, which shocks him. Opie tries
to convince Jax to stay, but Jax tells Opie to fix his life with Lyla
and talk to Piney. Juice is further cornered by Lincoln Potter into
informing him of the meeting or risk the RICO act, with Roosevelt
disgusted at Linc. Gemma is horrified by what Clay has done and
confronts him, further angering Clay who demands her to stop. However,
Gemma threatens to tell the truth and aims a gun at Clay, which ends in a
fight which injures Clay but leaves Gemma's face severely beaten,
prompting Clay to sleep at the clubhouse that night. Gemma calls Unser
who, given what Clay has done, wants to report him to the authorities,
but Gemma tells Unser that Clay is beyond salvation and as such "he will
die by the hands of a Son".
The following morning, the club meets with the Galindo cartel to
prepare the weapons for the battle against the Sonoras' settlement in
California. The club and the Gallindo Cartel are able to ambush 3
members who reveal the main camp's location; however, they are faced
against
landmines
and a shootout ensues, with Kozik getting blown up when he stepped on a
mine. The club kills most of the remaining Sonoras using RPGs. Wendy,
who was gone for rehabilitation, is back and proclaims to both Tara and
Gemma that even though she gave up custody, she wants to get closer to
Abel. Otto strikes a deal with Linc Potter for information; among the
benefits, that First 9 member Lenny the Pimp is allowed visitations in
exchange of criminal information. The club finds from Oswald that the
Katsuki Family, Georgie's Asian investors, had met with Jacob Hale
beforehand and are willing to invest in Charming Heights. Bobby, Opie,
and Tig confront Georgie about this and, under threat, he confesses that
he sent men to attack Luann but her death was unexpected. As a result,
Georgie is killed. Seeing Gemma's beaten face, Tig shows his disgust
towards Clay and gives Clay his "Sergeant-at-Arms" patch, resigning his
position. Opie goes to visit Piney only to find his father dead with
Unser following. Opie confronts Unser, who tells Opie the truth about
Clay, further shocking him and driving him over the edge.
A meeting takes place between the club and the Irish kings. The IRA
express their discomfort with Jax's decision to use RPG's to rescue Clay
during the fight with Los Sonora. They eventually agree to consider the
continual sale of heavy weapons provided the club does them a local
service. Meanwhile, Romeo and Clay meet to address the concerns of the
Irish regarding their liability should the heavy weapons be used north
of the border. Jax, Clay, and Bobby discuss Jax's future with the club,
agreeing that Bobby should get the Presidency, Chibbs the V.P; and Happy
being promoted to Sergeant-at-arms. Bobby heads out to inform Otto that
Georgie has been finally killed, and is escorted to an empty receiving
room to wait for Otto Jax leaves to check in on Tara only to discover
that Wendy has returned to see Abel and Gemma is trying handle it behind
Jax's back. Unser has the local mortician from season 1, remove Piney's
body and bring it to the mortuary for an "after-hours" cremation. Juice
is again picked up by law-enforcement, but this time it is official
ATF. Jax, Chibbs, Tig, and Happy agree to escort one of the "Irish
Kings" to sort out an issue at another one of their American businesses.
While there, Jax discovers it is another Irish "baby-factory" similar
to the one that Abel was almost adopted from in Ireland in season three.
Jax starts a small riot at the adoption house leading Leland (Irish
King) to question his decision making process with Clay. Jax confronts
Wendy who is still intent on seeing Abel and threatens to see a Judge if
Jax refuses. When Wendy ends her argument with "I'm not going
anywhere," Jax responds with "I am." Clay proceeds to visit Tara alone
in the hospital, where he makes it known to Tara that he knows about the
letters. He offers a trade of allowing her and her family with Jax to
leave Charming, but threatens her if she doesn't give Clay the letters.
On his way out, Clay bumps into Gemma who alerts him that Opie knows
about his fathers murder and will soon be coming after Clay. She ends
their encounter with a kiss on the cheek suggesting that she is saying
"goodbye" to Clay. Jax then arrives to sort things out between Tara and
Gemma, letting Gemma know his plans for leaving. Jax leaves after
receiving a mysterious phone call which we find out is to go meet Opie
at the mortuary. Otto finally has all of the arrangements in his deal to
turn states evidence worked out and signs his deal. He finally sits
down with Bobby and reveals his betrayal, as law enforcement lead Bobby
out in handcuffs. He is taken to a cell. We see that in an adjoining
cell, Juice is being held, sitting biding his time until the RICO sting
goes down. Bobby does not notice Juice. Upon arriving at the mortuary,
Jax sees Opie, Unser, and a coffin in the crematorium. Unser's intention
is to talk to Opie, as requested by Gemma, and tell him that there was a
mistake and it was not Clay who killed his Father. However Unser does
not get the opportunity to talk to Opie and leaves Jax and Opie together
in the Crematorium. Jax attempts to console an unresponsive Opie who is
holding his father's cut, which he eventually throws into the flames,
to burn with his Father's remains. After the cremation, Jax walks
outside to find out how Piney died, only to have Opie pull a gun on him
and divulge that Clay was responsible. Jax suggests that this is an
issue for the club to decide, to which Opie responds by shooting out the
tire on his bike. Opie then takes off to confront Clay with Jax trying
to catch up. In the last scene, Opie jumps Clay and forces him to sit at
the "head of the table." Jax rushes in with his gun pointed at Opie,
threatening to kill Opie if he doesn't lower his gun. However, Opie
opens fire anyway and hits Clay twice, just as the episode ends.
The next episode starts right after. Clay is still alive and makes a
gasping sound. Opie raises his gun to shoot him again but Jax shoots him
in his hand. Unser and one of the prospects hear the gunshots and come
running. They move Clay outside and call the police. Jax tells Opie to
go hide out in the cabin until he sorts things out. They leave Unser to
tell the police and the rest of the gang that Clay was shot by two black
men driving a SUV. Clay is taken to the hopsital where he goes into
surgery. Jax drives out to Stockton, where he meets with Lenny "The
Pimp" who heard Otto has made a deal with Law Enforcement. Meanwhile,
Tig blames himself for not being there when Clay was shot, and goes
after the Niners for revenge. He tries to run over Leroy, but kills the
girl Laroy is with. He is chased by The Niners until Jax and the gang
come to save him. Afterword Jax has a meeting with the Gallindo Cartel
and tells them about Otto. Romero checks with his people and tells Jax
if Otto was snitching he would have found out, so the meeting with the
Irish is still on. Gemma goes to Tara and tells her the truth about
Clay. She convinces Tara to give her the letters so Gemma can give them
to Clay in exchange for Tara's safety. Gemma gets the letters and
removes the ones that implicate her and Unser in the J.T. death. She
takes the letters to Jax and urges him to kill Clay and take his
rightful place at the head of the club. While Jax reads the letters,
Gemma waits outside the clubhouse with Unser and tells him what she did,
while Tara drives up and asks to speak with Gemma alone. Tara ask Gemma
if she gave the letters to Clay and Gemma stays quiet. Tara reveals she
knows about Gemma's plan claiming "I'm smarter than you and I know Jax
better" at this point Jax comes over and tells Tara that he is going to
kill Clay. Tara says she knows and pulls a needle with blood thinner out
of her bag and tells Jax to inject Clay with it and pull out his chest
tube, so it would look like an accident. She tells him to get out of
Charming after killing Clay, which he agrees with. Jax leaves and Gemma
asks Tara what she thinks she is doing. Tara tells her "what you taught
me. He's(Jax) mine" with Gemma visibly angered.
As Lincoln Potter is ready to move on his RICO operation, he's called
off by Romero Parada and Luis Torres, who are revealed to be CIA
agents, who the government allows to run their cartel so as long as they
bring others down for political reasons. During the meeting, the Irish
King Galaan, makes it clear he does not trust Jax and will only deal
with Clay. Romero and Luis talk with Jax, and reveal their secret of
being CIA agents, and instruct him to not reveal it to anybody, and that
they need SAMCRO to run the drugs and the weapon supply or they will
allow the RICO operation and crush SAMCRO. Jax visits Clay at the
hospital, finally making clear that he read the letters. He does not
kill Clay as he's needed alive to deal with Galaan, but does however
strip him of his position of President, and to stay away from Tara and
Gemma, and will have the benefits of a normal member, Clay agrees
knowing that Jax will not listen to his explanation. Following the halt
on the RICO operation, Linc Potter gives Roosevelt a clean record of
Juice for him to give him, seemingly parting ways, as well as burst into
the meeting for Charming Heights revealing the true colours of Jacob
Hale's investors which Hale masked as Tokyo Fund, as the Natsuki Family,
who are involved in great sex deals including pedophillia. This puts a
recess on the vote. It is revealed by Deputy Chief Cane that Laroy's
girlfriend that was killed by Tig's run is the daughter of Damon Pope,
the most powerful gangster in Oakland (hinting a possible retaliation).
Jax meets with Opie and confirms his suspicions, but warns Opie they
need Clay alive (not revealing in full detail about the CIA's threat),
and asks him to be his Vice President, Opie still distrustful does not
give a clear answer. Jax explains to Tara their situation and that he
must remain as president while she leaves with the boys. Jax appears at
the chapel announcing himself as president with his first act being
naming Chibs as his new sergeant-at-arms which he gladly accepts. Happy,
Tig and Juice enter the chapel, with Juice finally free of his
african-american record. The meeting starts at 8:03 pm with Opie not
showing (it is unknown if he later does) as Tara enters the Chapel
claiming to Jax that she will also remain, just as Gemma enters. Tara
stays behind Jax in his president seat mirroring a photo of Gemma being
with John Teller in the same way, as the season ends, making them both
the new President and Queen.
The end of season 4 :*( Did you think I typed all that? I didn't. Thank the lawd for google. I just copied and pasted and easy as that. LoL....I want to know what you think will happen next for the guys of SamCro? What will happen to Jax and Tara? Is Wendy going to be back next season to see her son Abel? Tell me what you think?
