The wake brought me to tears! Jax looking at the picture of him and opie as kids, then putting it in the casket. Wow! The look on Jax's face when he slammed the hearse door after the wake. Someone's gonna pay! I'm tired of Gemma! And I'm tired of Tara being manipulated by Gemma. Tara is smart...she should know how to pick and choose her battles, and a battle with Gemma is not worth it. Gemma's behavior got Nero's place raided. She pounded the hell out of Imogene-over brokedown, sneaky manipulating, this-is-all-his-fault Clay! Clay is the one who called the cops. Then,she manipulated Tara into the beatdown of Carla....which Nero is going to use to end his relationship with Gemma. Did you notice Carla's smirk at Gemma as Nero helped her into the truck? It's time that Tara really stepped up as Queen and start handling her club's business.

Kudos Kurt for using the hellcats cheerleader outfit spread on the bed of the working girl. That´s really funny.

Pope isn't actually taking half of the the gun running money, just half of the Coke haul )which i imagine is less than the gun cash)

I really liked last night.. It was what we all needed..No one being killed for once..
Gemma is the one Kurt needs to change not Tara she is great.. She is doing just what she should be at this time..
Gemma does the same thing every season...
Find a new interest for her... Let tara & Jax have more parts together...
I sure hope this all ends with Jax and tara and the boys all sitting at the big table together...

Oh, and wtf is wrong with tara - the whole getting stoned in the garage after beating on carla instead of being by jax's side while he said goodbye to his best friend. Did anyone else take his angry look at the end - which seemed to be in her direction - as annoyance at her?

I am SO SICK of Gemma and Tara I don't know what to do! They are sickening. Ope is dead and Jax is trying to get through it the best he can and these two idiots get into a fight. I actually love Gemma's badass character but this is ruining it for me. Tara is a surgeon for god's sake she really needs to pull it together and get smart about all this.
Ditto on the comments about Gemma/Tara. Tara needs to stop and think. Gemma is really playing her. Gemma has been in the game a long time and she knows how to get what she wants. Tara is just reacting, not thinking. I think Sutter will get her straight before the season ends, at least I hope so. This season started with a BANG so I have no doubt Sutter will keep it going.

I'm so tired of the gemma/tara bs& throwing wendy in there to shake it up. the scene with gemma & wendy at the beginning had some amusing lines but really? I dont believe for a minute that gemma would have called her; she would have callef unser or bobby first. and i really didnt get the whole tara, gemma & neros madam thing, what was the point. it all felt so forced & not at all what those characters would do.

wow. the last few scenes made me cry. i don't think i've ever cried before watching this show. well except one time in season 3. that was a powerful moment there, when jax put the kid picture of him and opie in the casket. i'll miss this guy. i hope ryan hurst gets to direct another couple episodes, i like his style, and that way he won't be gone entirely.

I also feel sad that Opie is gone. Bring him back as a long lost twin brother or cousin. He was my favorite on SOA.

First, I do not get Tara and Jax's hatred of Wendy. When she was a junkie, doing drugs while pregnant, Jax was supportive and almost loving. Now that she has accepted, several times now, her responsibility in what happened to Abel the first few weeks of his life and has been successful in her recovery, why are they so unwilling to come to a compromise with her. It's bad plotting in a story line that already has more then enough drama much more vital to the plot. It's just drama for the sake of drama.
The conflict between Gemma and Tara is essential to the long term plot. That is why I don't get why it is being done so poorly. Both of these actresses are talented and Sutter has proven to be a great writer in the first four seasons and in some elements so far in season five, but the handling of this part of the story line leaves a lot to be desired. TV needs strong women, and up until now they have been, but so far this season they just spoiled little brats.

I get the half assed feud between Tara and Gemma. Tara is coming into her role as queen. The ass beating she handed Nero's pimp mama was a sure sign of her sociopathic tendancys, lets not forget that Tara has committed one murder up at Gemmas dads house. This feud is more about the reckoning each one of them is going through. Gemma is deposed of her power as clays right hand. And Tara has to show Gemma that she is here to stay....what I saw tonight that should concern all of us, is clay hanging out with the nomad guys the club just voted in and lifting weights. Clearly he is getting stronger. I felt it was a bit soon for this in the writing process since last week he could barely walk ten feet without resting or falling over. The single biggest threat jax should have is a strong clay with a desperate Gemma at his side. I'm certain the same two people that killed j t will not think twice to depose at the very least if not kill anyone or anything that stands in there way. By now most of

Us have seen the scene called oh brother where Jax drives off a bridge.....another sabotaged Harley perhaps? The whole idea of the show is that it's basically hamlet on Harley's.......Shakespeare ......we all know how that ended. Jax will die....but when .....and at who's hand?

what was the name of and who performed the song at Opies wake?

How is it possible that Gemma can play the once confident, self assured MD like a broken fiddle? This is mind boggling. Jax says he untwisted his mommy issues, but he obviously doesn't see that his wife is becoming a broke down version of Gemma... Right down to the greasy hair and half smoked joint.

Agreed. I'm more than a little sick of the Gemma and Tara feud because I'm not really sure how it started. And what the f*ck was the point of Ashley Tisdale?

I AGREE ABOUT GEMMA AND TARA. they are annoying me now.they work better together. both need to quit being bitches to each other.
Gemma: How's the ass? Lyla: How's it look? Gemma: Like a snack.
