At Fawn’s Oakland address, Tig, Juice, Chibs and Jax find a couple of black guys hanging on the porch, and who have no tattoos, which is a Niner requirement. As the guys get Tig to relax slightly because these guys are not gang-affiliated, we suddenly hear Fawn screaming from inside the house. Tig runs into a bedroom to rescue Fawn, who is not, against all observations to the contrary, being raped by an angry man.
It felt more like black to Fawn.
She insists the guy behind her is her boyfriend, and they are just role playing a little.
Once everyone is in the living room, Tig begins the painful process of telling Fawn she’s in danger and that Dawn’s dead.
Fawn decides to rescind her nomination of Tig as Dad of the Year.
Jax gives Fawn’s boyfriend some money so he can get Fawn out of town … and he walks out of the room with as much dignity as one can muster with only a pair of baggy boxers on.
Maybe he can use the leftover cash to purchase the DVD version of Tin Cup since his VHS tape collection is a little obsolete.
Chibs walks over to Jax to let him know they still haven’t heard from Romeo. Jax asks Chibs to stay with Fawn and her posse to make sure she leaves Oakland. He’ll call Nero and get a ride back to Diosa to wait for Romeo’s call.
In Charming, Bobby is reluctantly driving to Clay to Opie’s house. Bobby asks him to reconsider the visit, and lets him know that none of the guys are going to vote him out. Clay says he needs to “come clean” (his version, at least) to Opie, since the bullets flying toward him from Opie’s gun kind of got in the way of his words last time he tried to explain.
Opie’s gun is nowhere to be seen this time, Clay, but it looks like he can do some damage with that saw … or that mallet … or he can go Hacksaw Jim Duggan on your ass with that 2X4.
Opie is rightfully suspicious when Clay tells him he admitted fault for Piney’s murder to the club, and we find out the real reason he showed up at Ope’s: Clay wants to convince Opie to go back to the SoA table since Jax will need him now, more than ever.
Nero picks up Jax from Fawn’s house but tells him he needs to make a fifteen-minute stop on the way back to Diosa. On the way, the two go back to networking, discussing escort services vs. gun running and even taxes come up. Apparently, Nero does have “a crew” (I think we were all wondering about that) and he pays them with a percentage of the earnings and “free pussy.”
Pimpin’ ain’t easy.

Would the real gimpy arm of Tara’s please raise your hand???? The cast was on her right,then her left,then her right! Make up your mind!!!! Shit like that makes me crazy!!!
I am obsessed with this show and I am so happy it’s being recapped!! The wedding scene made me tear up a little. Supposedly someone important is going to die next week, any thoughts on who?
Great recap. I’m obsessed with this show. Sidenote- Am I the ONLY person who cannot understand a fucking word Chibs says? Seriously. Not one single word. Lastly, I just loved how Clay says to Unser “good thing Gemma wasnt here” (reguarding the break-in/assault). I guess Gemma getting beat up is only ok when HE does it. Clay is such a tool, and I get more pissed off every time another member has a “I give you credit for admitting you killed piney cause it had to be hard” heart-to-heart with him. Ugh. No one even questions his self-defense defense! They seem to have forgotten about the gazillion innocent people the club has mistakenly murdered under Clay’s leadership INCLUDING OTHER MEMBER’S OWN FAMILY MEMBERS.
Tmurda – I can’t understand Chibs either. I feel like I need the captions on!!
Question – Clay is lying about the whole “I killed Piney in self defense” thing? I can’t remember how it actually went down last season. I think Clay is trying to make himself look weak b/c he has some plan in his head about how to get back on top.
I can’t tell if Nero is a good guy or a bad guy. I hope he isn’t undercover b/c we already have that story line, and I like that him and Jax bonded.
“Paging Dr. Boner” LOLOLOL!!
Chibs is Irish. I thought he came from the SoA gang in Ireland, or whatever gang they were working with 2 seasons ago.
What a surprise to see that the new guys are the ones that are beating up people affiliated with the Sons. I can’t wait to see where that goes and how Jax handles it.
Thanks for the great recap, AP!
Clay is lying about killing Piney in self-defense. He killed him because Piney was threatening to tell the club about the letters and how Clay killed J.T.
Thanks for the great recap! Love this show!
Tmurda- I just said the exact same thing last episode about Chibs. Can’t understand a single word he ever says. Ever!
Mia- I think Tara’s cast appears to be on the wrong arm in the screen cap because she is looking in a mirror. Pretty sure the cast is always on her right hand.
Thanks mjh!
Hi everybody! Thanks for all your comments and answering all the questions. As plockeness stated, Chibs IS Irish. I can’t believe I forgot the plot about his Irish baby momma and teenaged daughter being held hostage by Jimmy O’Phelan, played by Titus Welliver, who also happens to be a “Lost” alum (The Man In Black). How did I forget that Katey Sagal was Helen on Lost? That explains why Kurt Sutter is so Lost-cast friendly, too.
Chibs has a Northern Irish accent, which does sound more Scottish than the southern “top o’ the morning” leprechaun speech we usually hear on tv. I am so grateful you’re recapping this show because I always had these plot questions from past episodes and now I see I’m not the only one.
CHIBS IS NOT IRISH!!!!
My god he IS Scottish, he grew up in Belfast Ireland but he was born in Scotland- he IS Scottish. His accent is Scottish. He is not Irish, but Fiona was Irish.
Honestly if you’re obsessed with the show you should know that.
I mean seriously Tommy Flanagan (a.k.a Chibs) is Scottish!!! Born is Glasgow just like Chibs! I don’t think he’d appreciate you guys telling him he’s Irish.
He isn’t that hard to understand either. Except when hes whispering-at those times even I have a hard time. But seriously SCOTTISH NOT IRISH.
HW: Thanks for the clarification. Being Scotch-Irish myself, I can see how this distinction CAN DRIVE YOU SO CRAZY YOU NEED TO CAPITALIZE EVERYTHING!!! Also, I think Chibs would be more pissed that I called him Catholic! Please check out my newest re-cap, and correct my mistakes there. I do make a lot of them, and you seem to know more than me about the show.
Whoa you’re a Scot-Irish? No f-ing way seriously? Awesome! I think Chibs is Catholic just not majorly hes very uh loose? I dunno a relaxed Catholic? Something like that he’s not as big on all the rules and regulations, I could be wrong.
And yeah I’m a little (that means a lot) obessed with SoA so…..I get a little tochy when people mess up- but mostly just on Tig and Chibs.
I shall check the new recap.
