Mayans MC has been a solid successor to Sons of Anarchy so far. Set after the credits rolled on SAMCRO for the final time, the story follows Ezekiel Reyes (EZ) as a prospect for a Mayans charter based in the fictional California town of Santo Padre.
Recently released from prison, the pilot season shows EZ’s early days within the MC, doing their dirty work and finding himself caught up in a war between a faction of Mexican rebels and the local Galindo Cartel.
As the season develops, we learn more about EZ’s past, his motivations and the current work that the MC is involved in. We gain an insight into the various moving pieces, relationships, allies and enemies that craft the tale of Santo Padre.
As with all good series, the show leaves us yearning for more. Season One doesn’t wrap up every loose end. There are plenty of questions in need of answers, back stories in need of further explanation and uneasy conclusions that may not be as definitive as the show led us to believe.
With Season Two just around the corner, it’s time to look back at some of these unanswered questions.
Of course, beware of MAJOR Season One spoilers ahead.

In Episode 9 of Mayans MC, EZ’s brother, Angel, discovers that EZ has been working as an informant to the DEA as part of a deal for early prison release. Homeland Security agent, Lincoln Potter, reveals the arrangement before offering the brothers a new one in exchange for overlooking a body found in the trunk of their car. (More on that later.)
Whilst Potter confirms that EZ’s deal gave his family and the MC immunity, Angel is still outraged about his brother lying to him. He tells EZ that once they’ve done their deed for the feds, he should turn in his cut, leave the MC and leave Santo Padre for betraying him. EZ agrees to the terms and the two get to work.
However, once the job is done, EZ approaches the MC, not to leave, but to ask that someone else sponsor him as a prospect, claiming family connections are causing complications with his brother. The club’s leader, Bishop, agrees to sponsor him in Angel’s place.
This leaves Angel in muddy water. Now that he’s worked with the police, he’s in just as much trouble if the club finds out. It’ll definitely be interesting to see where this plot goes in Season Two.
