A quiet tap at the back door interrupts their needles and lies foreplay, and Clay gets up to get the door. It’s Nero.
We should probably stop meeting like this.
Nero says he’s there to check on Gemma and see if she’s heard anything about Jax. I guess someone forgot to tell the Mexican … he looks horrified and Clay drawls, “I think Bobby tried to call ya.” Gemma walks up and asks Clay for just a minute alone with Nero. Since he’s acting as crazy as his recently-deceased half-sister, Gemma talks him down. She tells him she can’t explain everything, but she’s not back with Clay and she loves him. She kisses him goodbye passionately and shoves him out the door.
At Clay’s, Juice is frantic, ’cause Clay did remove all the paperwork from the air vent. A frantic Juice is distraught while Jax explains to Bobby and Chibs that the paperwork proves Clay was behind the Nomad attacks, since the paperwork was originally in the safe that was stolen from Gemma’s by the Nomads. In frustration and anger, Jax punches Juice, and tells him to go home. After he leaves, Bobby confronts Jax about using Juice to try and expose Clay, when he should have just exposed Juice as a rat to the table. He tries to convince Jax to drop his moves against Clay, telling him he has no real proof of Clay’s guilt without the paperwork. Jax tells Bobby it’s bigger than this Nomad issue, that he believes Clay killed JT but has no proof of that, either, except suggestions in the letters JT wrote to Maureen. He knows that Clay killed Piney and ordered the attack on Tara, but doesn’t have proof of those things either. Bobby looks like he just got gut-punched.
And that would be a pretty significant punch.
Jax walks out and back at Gemma’s, Clay’s pouring some tea when he hears another back-door knock. It’s Bobby, and he tells Clay to keep his gun handy as he walks in. Clay asks if Bobby is going to kill him, and Bobby tells him, no, he’s here to keep him alive, and to sit down. End.
Do we think Bobby knows some super-duper secrets about JT’s death? Who is Donal Logue’s character? Can’t wait to find out next week … thanks for reading!

I think the actress who played the nurse is Donal Logue’s real life sister. So I guess, he is also portraying her brother here. And I’m a little confused about the whole documents situation. If these documents could prove, that Clay is Jax’s Dad – why would Gemma help Jax to find those documents? That wouldn’t help her building a better relationship with her son again.
To the Bobby-Clay situation: a lot of people are speculating that JT isn’t dead. Maybe the whole death situation was a setup to let JT walk away from the club without any harm and Bobby is one of the very few who know about this. Maybe he wants to protect Jax to kill Clay over something that never happend. Clay has done all kinds of wrong, but killing JT might not be one of those things.
I think Donal Logue’s character is related to the nurse that Otto killed..they both were listed with the same last name in the credits. Thanks for the recap..the show is so violent but your recaps make me laugh!
I wonder if Jax is going to try and save Tig from Pope ..can’t wait for this Tuesday!
I don’t think JT is alive, because I think Maureen over in Ireland would be aware of that. I can’t belive that if Clay was Jax’s father that they would have put it on the birth certificate so not sure what else that paperwork will prove. (beside the tie to the Nomads)
I agree with you, Violet, they wouldn’t be so stupid to put Clays name on those birth certificates if he was Jax’ real father.
I also think, the father-son storyline is a distraction from something else. There are hints since Season One, that Clay MIGHT be Jax’ biological father. But this season is really rubbing it in. So I think, it would to obvious to take that road. It is getting tiresome just like the whole paperwark storyline in general. Really? There is no other way to prove (or at least convince everyone) that Clay was behind the home invasions? Okay, it took a complete stranger to point it out to Jax that he should be looking inside the club. Is it just me or would an earlier seasons-Jax have been smarter and figured it out by himself?
But I’m not so sure about JT. If he isn’t dead and he was able to walk away from the club, maybe he wanted to cut off all the ties to it – even Maureen. Maybe that was even a requirement. I’m just grasping at straws here. This season is so confusing and I’m trying to put some sense into it – for my own inner peace.
If Jax is smart he will convince Clay to kill Pope (promising to step down as president or whatever …). This way he will have his revenge for Opie and, because of Pope’s own kind of life insurance, he would also get rid of Clay. And if he kills Clay in the aftermath of Popes death, Jax would also be rich…
There is a spoiler on the EW recap that says who Donal Logue’s character is in case you can’t wait.
I wonder what Jax is going to do about Tig, their exchange this week made my stomach turn… “Still love me Tiggy?” ACK! Can’t wait for next week.
I really hope that Clay isn’t Jax’s bio father, but there are too many context clues to ignore!
Can’t believe Gemma told Nero she lived him. I live their storyline and I hope K. Sutter keeps it going into next season.
Greenmonster – I agree with you. If John is still alive, he would probably have to cut ties with everyone, including Maureen. Maybe if she knew he was alive, it would put her in danger.
