Season 7, Episode 2 - Toil and Till
SPOILERS for anyone not following the American broadcast of the show.
After last week's bloody opener we now get THE plan to destroy Lin. Thanks to Gemma, Jax is convinced that the Chinese were behind Tara's murder and he is determined to exact revenge. The club, and the viewer, gets the full lowdown on what Mr Teller plans to do; it's thorough and brutal. The rest of the episode is pretty much a cacophony of gunfire. The end is a glimpse into even bigger problems for Jax and co; is internal conflict about to derail the club's plans?
Meanwhile, Juice is given money, a burner phone and a place to hide but unexplicably still remains in Charming. Theo Rossi is really coming into his own even if it is inevitable that he won't last the season (however, I thought Torric would be in it for the long run and remember how he went out).
It's not all doom and gloom; we are given two quality double acts. First, Rat Boy proves he is almost as vulgar as Tig as the two spend time on stakeout duty. We also get to watch the dynamic between Wendy and Nero. There's a definite spark but I imagine it will lead only to respect and nothing further; Wendy dare not risk Gemma's wrath.
We are finally introduced to the town's new sheriff played by Annabeth Gish. Her role in the final season is still yet to be determined but as she herself points out, look what happened to the last person who had her job.
This season is bound to be shrouded in violence and chaos, I believe things are going to get much, much worse.
