I know how much you love Tara, and I see how deeply she loves you. Betrayal is a very intense feeling, one that can only be matched by the maternal instinct of a mother protecting her young.
Whatever decisions happen here today, the outcome lands on you. Are you willing to let your family pay the price for your mistakes? Is that what a good man would do? Because if that happens, I promise you son, it's gonna destroy you and everything else you love, and that's not the law in me talking, that's a flawed mother who made a lot of mistakes. You're a husband, and a father, and a man before (gestures to his kutte) all of this. Own your place.
I understand the pain you're in, son. The reason for your silence. I lost a son and a nephew to gang violence. I didn't want anyone arrested. I wanted them all dead. Heartless, cold bullets to the back of the head, just the way they killed my boy. That's a natural reaction. The desire for revenge, it's a part of grieving. The difference is in my world, I knew that those violent desires would never become real. In yours, it's a very likely outcome. We couldn't tie you to either murder. Parole violation (scoffs) The gun wasn't fired. It was in the house. We're gonna let you go. Your mother's here to see you. She can take you home. (chuckles) I've been doing this for over 20 years, and until today, I have never said a word about my personal life to someone on the other side of this table.
Because I needed help to connect with the man who did the right thing ten days ago! Who knows the importance of family! And that more violence will only destroy what's left of his.
You know the biggest difference between me and Mr. Pope? Damon made his bones being the smartest guy on the street. I made mine being the deadliest. Don't cross me, Jackson. I have no remorse killing you or any of the Sons.
Well, my sweet Alex, I was born of man, but I believe my true genesis happened a bit later, when I was stirred by the gods of love and beauty and transformed into an angel. Whose sole purpose is to bring light to the shadows and a little bit of joy to all those lost souls who can no longer find it.
Let me be more specific. You deliver Teller or I kill you. End of the day, Nero. And in case you got any ideas about taking a road trip? Security at the cripple home - ain't that tight.
know, I was the one who advised Nero to tell you to bring a whole army. Now you're gonna watch as my guys rip apart your entire crew. I'm gonna wipe out every trace of you and your organization, Henry. You're done. You're just a dirty Oakland memory. But first, it's you and me.
You had the chance to be something good for this club. Something your old man always wanted. But you turned into everything he hated. You became the poison, the reason he checked out.
He wrote some kind of book. I never read it. But whatever was in it, if it would have gotten out, would've destroyed the Sons and tore apart his family. What do you think happened to your old man that day? Out on 580?
Yeah, we heard those rumors. But there was one thing that didn't hook up for me. That panhead was an extension of John. He would've known if anything was wrong with it the second he kicked it over.
