Firstly, HOLY SHIT!!!!! I literally screamed and burst into tears twice in the space of three minutes. Wow, just....wow! I was thinking that the beginning of this episode was a bit slow and normal for an SOA finale... and then BAM! I am in shock...

What a season for Tara! I applaud Maggie Siff for an amazing performance, especially in the last few episodes. She will be missed and I really did feel for Tara's plight this season with being jailed and stalked, trying to get the boys out of the never ending shitsplosion that is the club, and then to finally have the solution right there, ready to go, only to be stabbed by a carving fork over a misunderstanding. Shit eh?

I knew as soon as Gemma (Katey Sagal) took Unser's (Dayton Callie) truck that she was off to find Tara... I actually thought she would have a gun ready to shoot her with but I have to say the kitchen cat fight was better. What I want to know is, did Juice (Theo Rossi) just clean up all the mess or is he planning to take the fall for this after Jax (Charlie Hunnam) just confronted him with the betrayal to Nero (Jimmy Smits) about that Dominique woman? He might take the fall just to get away from the clubs justice and to protect Gemma who saved his life when he took all those oxy last ep.

Was the DA (CCH Pounder) looking at Jax's gun as the murder weapon then? What happens now to the musical game of deals? Tara doesn't need to be cleared of that murder now so all the DA needs is someone to take the fall for the guns, right? Jax can't turn himself in and leave the boys with no one now, especially with Gemma all screwy and Wendy (Drea de Matteo) in rehab. How long will Gemma be able to hide this one?

I was so happy when Tara and Jax worked things out. That scene at the park was brilliantly shot and portrayed. Tara was so scared and the look on Jax's face was definitely something to be afraid of... and then he said something like "Be a good mother. You don't have to run anymore." Cue swoons.

I find it really hard not to blog about this show every episode - I like to keep it fresh for ya'll - but it has to be one of my favourite shows. Kurt Sutter does an amazing job writing, keeping us constantly guessing and his season long plot lines never fail to impress me. I can't wait to see what he has planned for us for the final season of this fantastic show and what he will come up with next.

If you need me I'll be the one in the corner sobbing into my pillow until next season..

5 out of 5 carving forks...

Gemma to the DA: Suck my white crack.

Holy crap, I didn't talk about last week at all! Shit is really hitting the fan around Charming... Bloody Gemma (Katey Sagal) crashed the car with the kids in it the very first time Tara (Maggie Siff) actually caves and lets her take them. I feel kind of sick, I bet Gemma does too especially after lying to Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and making a whole scene around the lie before finally telling the truth. I'm surprised Tara only punched her.

So Jax now knows that Clay (Ron Perlman) was the one who set up the home invasions. What I want to know is why didn't he just dob him in to Eli (Rockmond Dunbar) when he asked about who killed his wife? Speaking of Eli... poor buggar... but dont dob in Juice! Maybe it'll come out now that Juice (Theo Rossi) told Clay and he didn't make a big deal of it. I hope Juice isn't going to end up as collateral damage in Clay and Jax's war...

Jax really doesn't give much of a crap anymore, does he? He's shooting people left right and center, throwing people off buildings, chopping off hands... Hell bad ass. Plus the ultimatum he gave Gemma! She'll do it too, she's not going to like it but she'll do it. She screwed up real bad and she knows it... Tara will probably never forgive her though...

Just one more thing I wanted to share... I know everyone is pissed with Clay and wants him dead, and viewers are constantly whinging to Kurt Sutter about him living through every episode and this is what he had to say about it.

as i tell perlman every week: the reason people tune in to SOA is to hopefully watch clay die. i'm riding that train as far as i can...
