Wendy wouldn't have had the will or stick-to-it-tiveness w/o Gemma pumping her up. She's still tempted by dope. She still has no personality and no influence with the Tellers. They use her like they used Tara.

Excellent comment.

I haven't been able to get myself together enough to express this. You have absolutely crystallized one of the main defects of this increasingly adolescent show. Thank you.

And Sheriff Roosevelt was shot to death in the back. Obviously only one Chinese killer.

S1,E1. "Just a pack at a time, darlin. Keeps me humble."

He was sometimes smart in the schemes he devised in earlier seasons. They were just as improbable, for example, taking out the blond psychopath AFT agent, but I was rooting for the Sons in that one and some others.

I was reaching for the off button. Sutter is "fearless". Hip, hip, hooray. But a little kid cutting himself? No.

You're right. He holds a random whore the same way he held the "love of his life". How long has it been—a month since Tara was murdered?

That's all it was. Fans are supplying the exalted feelings.

He's always been gay. He has brought the subject up numerous times, other characters have joked about it, he's never with a girl.

Fully dressed.

Besides Abel, that's the only thing that made me do a double take and shout out loud!

She probably went to high school with Jax.

He was assessing her IQ the night before. As far as I'm concerned he can cry the rest of his life.

I hope!

Agree about the Sheriff character.

They did, but he's an ex-cop so he got to explain it all to the genius Sheriff Jarry. Go Unser! Is he going to end up having some backbone after all?

Watched the Afterword. What a laughable load of horseshit! I already knew Sutter was a legend in his own mind, but now I don't have any respect for the actors either. They really think this is high theater and Sutter is the "greatest living writer"???

I don't think Abel is devious. He was a kid cutting himself as so many real kids do because outside pain distracts from inner pain. When he was pressed for who did it, he named somebody who comes to mind because he doesn't trust her. He doesn't know what an abuser is. He was raised by Tara before all the mayhem…

Give me a minute.
