Sons of Anarchy · Season 1
I know you're hurting. You think you're trying to help, but...
Don't you tell me what I'm thinking! You know, if this happened to your family, there'd be six charters halfway to Oakland.
This did happen to my family.
No it didn't! The Niners came gunning for my son. They killed my daughter-in-law. You got that, huh? You got that kind of hole in your family?
Nothing is okay. Like, the last few weeks, I tried to follow your lead. You know, find some kind of compartment to put all this stuff in. But I just can't. I don't sleep. I'm more scared now than I ever was. I'm scared of getting caught. I'm scared of not getting caught. We got away with murder. What does that make me?
A survivor.
I think you're a good man with a big heart. I believe you try to do as much good as you can, but you live a life I don't think I'll ever really understand.
Don't you get tired of it? Running
I'm not running. I'm just being realistic, Jax.
Call it whatever you want. Your life is a series of hit-and-runs. The minute someone makes you feel uncomfortable, tests your loyalty, little Tara packs her bags and hits the road. Well, I guess you got what you wanted from me, right? Used me to do your dirty work.
That's not fair.
Not fair? You wanna know how many women I've slept with over the last 10 years?
Don't do this…
Hundreds! Maybe more, I don't know. I barely see their faces. I married Wendy because I was lonely. Because I got tired of the endless disconnect. It was just a sad time-out. Because when I'm inside someone, there's only one face I see. When you came home, it was like some kind of sign to me. Like my past coming around to give me another shot to do this different; better. And now that chance is running back to Chicago.
This relationship you have with Clay…I don't like it…but I get it. You make a deal with the devil to keep the peace. But look at this. Look at what we let happen. An innocent woman was killed.
I didn't let that happen.
Yeah, you're right. It's on me. What was I supposed to do? Roll over and feed SAMCRO classified information?
I get the rock and hard place this all took you to. Sorry this guilt comes down on you.
Well, then, help me. For once, please. Just help me serve justice to these guys.
I should be fishing somewhere, or reading a book half buzzed on vodka and lemonade. And I'm still here in this suit of mine because I've got my own rock and hard place I'm living between. I ain't got much more of a run in me. A few years, maybe, but I need something to leave Della and my half-smart kids. I'm sorry, son.
Motherless children. They make people do drastic things. This is bad.
You think I don't know that. You think I wanted this?
You feel all that, baby. You feel it here. You walk out that door...you be the man they all need you to be.
Time for a change.
Yea.
Looks like Trammel earned his pay.
You got something you need to say?
We both know this is bullshit. The only reason I don't set fire to it is because I love Opie and the truth would kill him.
We all love Opie. He needs this and we're going to give it to him.
Whoever you put this murder on just make sure they deserve to die because the guy that killed Donna is out there sharing a beer with her husband.
You better be real careful how you navigate around this one.
Or what? You gonna put a bullet in the back of my head too?
[to Ethan Zobelle] Look, I don't know what Darby told you, and I don't know what your angle is. But let me be real clear. Nobody threatens SAMCRO and nobody tells us what we can and can't do; black, brown, or white. So why don't you just climb back into your little German clown car and drive back to Nazi town because the next time you piss all over my shoes he will kill ya. And I don't give a shit how many witnesses there are.
You know why I run away from shit all the time? Cause I don't trust anyone. If I'm gonna stay, I need to know the truth.
I tell you the truth.
Not just what you think I can handle. I need all of it. It's the only way I'll know if I can do this.
You got kids, Darby?
No.
I just pulled my six-year-old out of T-ball cause I found out they're giving trophies to every boy on every team for simply playing the game. Trophies should be earned. Teaching children that everyone's equal is a dangerous philosophy.
You think... you think God forgives you for doing bad things? I-- I mean like really... bad shit.
God forgives absolutely. We're the ones who usually can't.
Something wrong?
They found that Mayan we visited. He was throwing up nine fingers. Brown's a little pissed at black.
I made a decision for the good of the club.
You settle that shit on your own?
Yeah. Spur-of-the-moment seemed like the right thing. I'm sure you can understand.
That little judgment call you made for the good of the club? It came back to bite us in the ass and almost killed Bobby.
I see that.
Whatever you may think, the truth is everything I do is to protect what we got. It's never arbitrary. And it's never reactive. Been doing this for 30 years, I know a few things.
Taking that tag off the Mayan was the right decision. You know that.
You wanna challenge me? Fine, I don't give a shit. But the minute it stops being about this club and it starts becoming personal they'll know that. They'll lose respect for you and they won't trust you anymore. And then you'll be handling everything on your own. Think about that…son.
Thoughts?
Everybody loves pussy.
I second that.
Third it.
I’m a very big fan of pussy.
All in favor? Like I gotta ask.
Pussy!
Looks like we're making movies.
This wasn't about me.
Well, what do you mean?
What those animals did. It was to hurt Clay and Jax. Anyone finds out, they win. I can't let that happen.
