Sons of Anarchy 3x13: NS

OMG. I'm so happy. I LOVED this finale. It gave me everything I wanted and more. Bless you SOA.

So Jax and Stahl have been sort of dancing around each other trying to decide if they can trust each other (spoiler alert: they can't). Anyway, they come up with a plan for the club to 'buy' Jimmy from the Russian's for 2 million. Stahl is putting up $250k so that the counterfeit money won't be quickly detected. Once they get Jimmy, they are supposed to put him in the van, and pass him off to Stahl.

However, after they get Jimmy, they put him in the trunk of Tara's car and she drives him to the shop. Meanwhile, Stahl pulls up to the van and realizes Jimmy is not in it. She's pissed and immediately goes to the shop to get Jimmy. When Clay (maybe it was Clay?) asks how she knew where to look for him, she immediately rats out Jax and his deal with her. The club goes ape shit about the fact that Jax ratted, as you can imagine. And I was so fucking pissed off at her at this point, I was hoping my glaring at her through the screen might kill her.

But, either way, she hauls all of SAMCRO that is there, including Jax, into a prison van. Gemma, Tara, and Lyla watch from the side and cry. Stahl takes Jimmy in her cop car and they all head out. Unser pulls over Stahl to let her know that some of Jimmy's guys are waiting for her a couple of miles up. She sends her guys to check it out since she doesn't trust the local cops not to fuck it up. Unser waits with her and Jimmy while they go and he calls for 'back up.'

Turns out, his back up is Piney, Chibs, Opie, and maybe someone else, but they don't really come into play if they are there. They roll up in a school bus and Chibs confronts Jimmy right off. He takes out two knives and slashes his face. Then he stabs him with them. I think we got the right person to kill him. He terrorizes his wife and daughter. I'm glad it was Chibs.

And if I was glad it was Chibs who got Jimmy, I was even more glad that it was Opie who got Stahl. And made her recreate the way she got Donna killed. She begs and pleads with him, but he tells her no longer has mercy for her. She shoots her in the back of the head. And I swear, you guys, I literally cheered. If I believed in a hell, I would totally be going there for this. Lol.

Once it's done, they let the prospects know (they are following the prison van) and they start to honk their horns over and over outside the van telling the guys it worked. Jax and Clay share a smile and all the guys in the van are happy. Turns out, the club voted to do it this way. Jax wasn't a rat, he just kept Gemma out of the loop.

Afterwards, the prospects bring a letter to Gemma from Jax telling her to burn it after reading it. In it, Jax tells her the truth, that club was in on it the whole time. He'd never rat, he's not like his dad.

And while, Gemma is reading this letter, Tara is reading the letters that Maureen send home with Jax. And in it, John said that he was sure Clay and Gemma were together, they weren't even trying to hide it. And if he turns up dead, it's the two of them who did it.

Man, am I looking forward to next season. I really looking forward to how this plays out. Are we gonna get a 13 month time jump so the guys are out of prison? Are we gonna see them in prison? Are we gonna have to deal with the fact that Gemma and Clay probably killed John? Is Tara gonna let Jax read these letters? Or keep it from him 'for his own good'? Aaahhh.
