He drank himself to sleep on the front steps of a tomb in the cemetery. What was the family name on the tomb? Patmos.<BR/><BR/>Brilliant.<BR/><BR/>Jax is no longer Jax. He's his father, John. And not only that, now he's John the Revelator - aka John of Patmos - the widely accepted author of The Book of Revelation. Hence the episode title and the folk tune playing as Jax strutted to the ceremony, risen anew in his epiphany of change. He was the only one wearing white at the funeral until Tara rushed over to him and dressed him in his leather vest, as if to silence the truth on the tip of his tongue. Jax may have stayed quiet, but the looks he gave Clay and Tig said it all. It was a phenomenally well thought out sceneDean "D-Day"https://www.blogger.com/profile/01834024739778941102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3045519924984561188.post-79047922733469823922008-12-03T19:59:00.000-06:002008-12-03T19:59:00.000-06:00If you look carefully, the show is filled with sym...If you look carefully, the show is filled with symbolism.

I think Hawkeye summed up a lot of what I was going to say, so I'll not repeat it again. <BR/><BR/>I hate I was not here to comment sooner. I even had to stay up till 11:00 at my folks house to see this but, I was not disappointed. My folks even enjoyed it and said they will start watching next season. I had to explain to them everything that was going on, but I didn't mind. <BR/><BR/>The homeless girl is significant somehow, but I'm not sure how yet.

Jax took off his colors because you do not want the colors identified at a crime scene.<BR/><BR/>2.) That was a copy of John Teller's manuscript that Piney handed to Jax.<BR/><BR/>3.) It is obvious that Jax and Piney know the truth.<BR/><BR/>4.) Stahl is trying to get Bobby to roll on the club.<BR/><BR/>5.) The homeless gal at the cemetary was the same one in front of the store that Gemma gave money to who also said "Abel will help my kids". I think the blanket that Jax found on him when he woke up was put there by the homeless gal and she took his sweater. He looked at the blanket with some surprise when he woke up. Looks like she is some type of "guardian angel" - at least that's my take.<BR/><BR/>6.) One thing I noticed during the Jax - Tig fight. At the end, it looked to me like Tig just gave up and let Jax take that final swing at him. Almost like he knows he deserves a beating for Donna's death - at the least!<BR/><BR/>7.) Jax played it real cool at the funeral in respect for Donna and Opie, but the looks he was passing around said volumes.<BR/><BR/>I was proud of Tara and Jax for making the commitment to each other at the funeral...I think that really sent a message to Gemma and Wendy. Big message of her acceptance to the club life by handing Jax his colors.<BR/><BR/>The finale has opened up the door for several stories to take place. Kurt Sutter is a genius writer!<BR/><BR/>I hope you all had a great, family filled Thanksgiving.Hawkeyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07198419022570456148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3045519924984561188.post-16889606779594597942008-11-29T08:20:00.000-06:002008-11-29T08:20:00.000-06:00last night i watche the very last episode of anoth...last night i watche the very last episode of another favourite show, The Shield. This has some links with the SOA in the fact they are very close and the niners show up in both programs. I am sad to see this show end but as with most great shows, another being the wire, they must come to an end.<BR/>The SOA is just starting out and last night confirmed my my thoughts that they have realy found a great new show to follow. This episode inished in the best way, after thinking that last week was the right time they went one step further and finished on a high for next season.<BR/>What will jax do? how will he make his move? and who will gemma stand by? for sure will will see the the club torn apart and the high archy change next season. I cant wait, bring it on.monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16644778661884002884noreply@blogger.com
