Last week, the most recent episode of FX’s signature show “Sons of Anarchy’” premiered on Tuesday, Oct. 29. Following up one of the most talked about episodes of the season, and arguably the series, fans had their eyes glued to the screen.
Fans are still reeling over the actions of one Dr. Tara Knowles, the wife of Jax Teller (Charlie Hunnam), President of the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club. Tara, played by actress Maggie Siff, has done something so drastic it didn’t even seem like her character.
With the intention of keeping her and Jax’s sons away from her psychotic and overemotional mother-in-law, Gemma Teller (Katey Sagal), Tara inflicted an outrageous amount of pain upon herself. After locking herself in her office with Gemma, the “pregnant” Tara thrust herself on the corner of her desk, forcing a miscarriage. When the authorities arrived, Gemma was blamed and Tara’s plan appeared to have been successful.
With this most recent episode, it seems that there are potential holes in Tara’s scheming. With so many people involved, such as Jax’s ex-wife Wendy, and fan favorite Wayne Unser (Dayton Callie), Tara has many loose ends that she may have not thought hard enough about.
Unser, the former police chief of the fictional Northern California of Charming, who helped Tara set up the incident with her miscarriage, was not let in to all the specifics of the plan. This past week, Unser made his discomfort known to Tara, who is struggling to hold herself together. No one knows whether or not Tara will be able to come out on top of this situation.
Aside from the drama revolving around Tara’s actions, the show focused on many other intriguing plot lines last week. Jax, with the destruction of the “Samcro” clubhouse by the IRA, has successfully moved the operations of the club to a store front, but is far from getting out of hot water.
With the devastating massacre of four school boys at the hands of a deranged young man, many law enforcement entities are attempting to place the blame on the Sons due to the gun used during the tragedy. After encountering a homicidal father of one of the lost children, the club and their constituents have fully realized the gravity of the current situation and aim to fix the problem any way they can.
With Jax’s endeavor to bring the club out of the gun running business and into a more legitimate financial pool, a new problem emerges out of the wake of the arrest of club partner Nero. Accused of the murder of one of his escorts, Nero has taken the blame for the school shooting.
Claiming to have given the father of the shooter the weapon for protection, the prosecutors had no choice but to close most of the case on the Sons. Being a very popular edition to the recent seasons, fans are hoping that Jax will once again outwit the club’s opposition and save Nero from life in prison.
Overall, fans of the acclaimed show were not disappointed with this past week’s episode. With an abundance of plot lines and dramatic developments to keep them busy, followers of “Sons of Anarchy” is keeping fans hooked to the show.
