not only is there no physical evidence, he has an alibi. the problem is that he's the president of the MC- it would be easy to sow a seed of doubt with the idea that he could have had someone do it for him.

yuuuuup

season two was really great- i didn't think i was going to enjoy it because i'm highly critical of rape-as-plot-device, but i was riveted the whole time. agree on season 3 as well; the belfast plot felt exceedingly stupid. on a tangent, but for a show that was willing to shoot on location in belfast, i've never

i thought tig was the grade-a fuck up in the mc but then juice had to go and pull this shit? i wish they'd have just killed him. i woulda felt a lot better about this. i'm disappointed tara had to go this way, but juice's decision to kill another innocent person on top of tara's death to spare gemma, of all people,

i've only ever seen ice+genitals recommended by cosmo, so i'm gonna say that it's probably for the best that those don't exist

were there no montages to gripe about, or was there so much other shit that we're willing to look past those this week?

so much in this show could have been easily avoided if someone /other/ than tig had been delegated pretty much any task

my kneejerk response to this was 'jax couldn't possibly be that stupid' but then again…

much worse- it's gone from used-sparingly device to 8 minutes per episode of a cruel joke. they're so tedious i can't even muster up the energy to be actually irritated by them. it's like kurt sutter found the one way i could come to loathe katey sagal and is force feeding it to me on a weekly basis, now x2

to be fair, i think sutter said he'd abandoned the shakespeare parallels, but i don't remember when.

ah, fair enough. i think robocop wrote the penultimate episode for this season, so that may be when we see him again.

$5 says clay is somehow still alive when all the dust settles

the face bruise/scrape was all tara, no?

is gemma going to do anything now that she's found out that tara knows all about JT's death? gemma got herself in the clear with jax again last week but that could all go to hell if tara finds a way to play that, no?

i guess i'm less feeling about gemma's sending clay to die because it feels so overdue at this point and i always found clay to be a little more despicable than anyone else in SAMCRO.

i guess they could somehow aide jax's plan, but it also feels like there's too many cooks in the kitchen- there are now so many moving pieces to this plan that it seems improbable that it'll work.

i get the "what now?!" feeling as well, but more because i don't see this ending well for tara than anything.

i don't doubt tara was, but gemma checked that her gun before going over to tara's. unless jax tipped gemma off that tara's been rocking the baby to sleep with a pistol in her lap, i can't see why gemma would think she'd need to protection against tara.

i'm not arguing that gemma does insane shit- i've lost track of how many noses she's broken -just that she seems to have a better grasp on how it might all play out when she does it. and hitting someone with a skateboard or plotting to bust out of the hospital to help find her grandson aren't quite as intentionally
