That tripped me up at first, also. I misheard "kid" when she was speaking and thought she was delivering the news that Velcoro wasn't a father especially bluntly.

Yes, and if you recall from the second episode, the Vinci M.E. told us that Caspere had been bound upside down, which would seem to preclude the cabin chair from being the murder location.

I posted elsewhere that with each episode so far this season taking a look at both where Ava is at the start of each day, as well as where she is at the end of each day, and how many of those scenes involve her sleeping (and therefore vulnerable), I think the show is moving toward her inevitable demise (or return to…

Am I wrong, or has every episode so far this season basically been framed as A Day in the Life of Ava Crowder? There has been a great deal of focus on where she is and what she's doing as she wakes up every morning, and every episode so far has ended with an examination of the end of her day (sleeping while Boyd…

Finding out there was an actual pilot is blowing my mind. I thought the prologue material in the first episode was just a remarkably clever meta-recap of a pilot that didn't actually exist. I thought it achieved a bit of brilliance by making me feel like I actually had seen the pilot, because I could imagine every…

I can't really remember — was Tara really going to leave the kids with Margaret, or was that the story she concocted to hide the fact that she was actually constructing a way for Wendy to have a claim to her son again? Maybe Thomas was included, as a package deal?

Good call on the quote, though. That clarifies the timeline a bit.

Fair enough. I haven't watched since it first aired. That was certainly never emphasized to any degree, though, and guys like Piney never did much to further that goal.

Are we sure about that? Right before he died Jury said that anyone who knew his bike as well as JT did would know something was wrong with it when he got on it. That was obviously something that had never occurred to Jax before, when he heard it.

"member of the CLUB," obviously. Pardon the Freudian slip.

That raises an interesting question. Did any of the characters who knew JT ever indicate one way or the other whether they thought JT would have wanted Jax to become a member of the flub, or if he expressed that his sons should stay away from it?

And yet, for all that framing, it was never especially clear what JT's touted "vision" for the club was, beyond getting out of gun trafficking. It's said many times that JT was still an outlaw, though, so it's not exactly as if he wanted to turn the MC into a benign dinner club. JT is presented to the audience as…

Leaving aside what I think was a very weak (at best) final sequence, here's what I found troubling about the end of the series (everything everyone else has mentioned bothered me also, but I haven't seen any comments address these points specifically):
1. After seven years of watching Jax scribble his nonsense…

Wasn't Dean hunting dogs without Kevin when the GR found Gladys in the woods?
