The entire last 10 minutes were some of the most tension-filled moments of the entire series run. We were overcome with stress waiting for Abel to drop the bomb, and Kurt Sutter brilliantly teased it several times, to the point where we had basically given up and expected to fade into the reaper logo without getting what we're so frantically waiting for. And then he said it. After the revelation from Jax that Wendy was Abel's "first mommy", the litle sociopath-in-training decided to fire back with a stunning disclosure of his own--that grandma killed mommy. The look on Jax's face was priceless, as he had no idea what to make of his son's claims. We've had the truth dangling just out of reach all season long, and now that it's finally come out it was quite the release. When you factor in that Juice has been turned into Tully's girlfriend, forced to play with his hair while he reads aloud a little post-coital poetry, you've got a man who's even more broken than he was before, with very little reason to remain loyal to the men who put him in that position. All signs point to an internal implosion very soon, as the Teller family tree is about to get chopped down through an act of rage. What did you think of "Faith And Despondency", and how do you want the rest of the season to play out? Sound off in the comments.
