Sons of Anarchy 3X7: Widening Gyre

So, I'm definitely confused about the relationship between SOA in Belfast and the IRA. It would seem like SOA would be loyal to SAMCRO, but it seems like they are all in bed with Jimmy. Am I missing something? Or do we just not have that information yet?

Tara finds Jax with the porn lady and decides he's wins. She can't do this. She packs up all her stuff and Jax tells her she doesn't have to rush as he's on his way to Belfast anyway. She barely looks at him as she storms out.

However, in the hospital, she talks to Gemma, who tells her to be strong and just wade through this shit; Jax is trying to protect her by pushing her away. I forgot that she's currently pregnant with Jax's baby. Either way, she helps Gemma escape the hospital so she can go with them to Belfast to get Abel back. Turns out, bitch administrator is actually helping her. Who would have thought?

Unfortunately, as soon as they get out of the hospital, Wayne is there ready to take Gemma in. They refuse and he pulls his gun (so Tig pulls his), but Gemma knows he's not gonna shoot her, so they just leave. But, he does immediately call the cops on them. Thankfully, Tara gave her the keys to her car, so they are able to ditch the cops as Tig leads them away.

Meanwhile, one of the Lodi crew (I think) is found dead with a knife in his skull, and his friends wants payback. However, SOA have just made the deal with the Mayans so things are a bit tenuous right now. However, they meet up with the Mayans and find out who was responsible and kill him. All seems okay, until Salazar finds out that Tara is Jax's old lady and plans to attack her while Jax is in Belfast.

Oh, and also, Maureen's daughter is with John Teller. Gemma had no idea, but it seems like Maureen thought she knew. Either way, both Gemma and Maureen want to keep whatever happened with John in Belfast from both Jax and Trinity. (If Gemma didn't know that John fathered Trinity, what is the other stuff she was planning to hide?)

It seems like we're finally heading to Belfast next episode. But I've thought that for several episodes now. Lol.
