What I’m Watching: Sons of Anarchy
Sons of Anarchy: Season 4, Episode 12 “Burnt and Purged Away” (A-)
There’s just no stopping the course of events on this show. It’s most intriguing to look at all of the developments in relation to Gemma and how others are perceiving her involvement. Unser simply followed up on their conversation by essentially directing Opie to kill Clay, yet it seems that she’s not ready to give up on him, warning him about the threat so that Opie couldn’t surprise him. Tara is most concerned that she is meddling in her life with Jax, but she’s just as concerned about her future daughter-in-law’s safety, though revealing that to her would be a horrible mistake. Wendy’s timing couldn’t be any worse, and I have a feeling that even if everything worked out with Jax’s exodus from the club, which it certainly won’t, she’ll still be a thorn in their sides. Opie shooting Clay was a huge shock, since I would have thought that Jax would have first shot him, but that’s sure to change things dramatically, whether he lives or not. Sadly, that might not even be the most tragically notable event of the hour. Bobby being taken into custody after Otto signed the papers was a hugely dramatic moment, and it’s definitely a game-changer. With the rest of the club soon to be arrested at the meet, there’s going to be precious few members of SAMCRO left to take over the reins. And that’s not even taking into account the fact that Romeo and Luis are still intent on finishing the job and killing Tara. It’s a good thing that we got an extra episode and that there are two full hours left to resolve everything.
