Sons of Anarchy Authority Vested
19 September 2012 | by (Ireland) – See all my reviews

After the events of last week's premiere we are setting up The Sons hiding in a Female service placement because there are warrants out for their arrest. Also Tig is worried about his second daughter and if her life hangs in the balance. Then after the credits we see a lawyer come to see the case. The Sons find out Wayne was attacked during the night. Jax brings up Marriage went Tara is worried for the well being of her children, so she is just laughing at the fact the ceremony would have no romance it a Brothel when he could be charged for murder. When Tig comes out to see his other daughter he finds out that she was just with her boyfriend, when she finds out her sister is gone she goes loose and who wouldn't when you find out your sister is dead and who might be killed too. Clay goes to Obie and tells him that he has told the group the truth about the death of his father, the one he already knew. Some more Jimmy Smits is great and now that he is with Jax it just seems to have a great chemistry (Smits can make any actor look better when they have him beside him). When Nero wants to have fun I guess he has some fun. Obie is still on the show so he must have a problem so he goes to his ex so she can look after the children, and he visits her at her porn film set. After Gemma finds out about the wedding of course she feels left out because she really does not like Tara that much because she feels like an non-admired role model for what being a biker wife is. Wedding time and we get a sweet small one but my problem with this little wedding was it felt a bit too out of place as it was only at the start of the episode the idea came up only to finish by the end of the episode. After a short wedding off with the police they go. This ending to the episode but it did not feel as consistent as last week.

EPISODE GRADE: B (MVP: Charlie Hunnam)
