In seasons past, whenever a threat was looming, the boys of SAMCRO would all head over to TM, call in backup from Tacoma (do those guys serve any other purpose?) and lock themselves within their own gates until the danger had subsided. But in The Separation Of Crows, the message was sent that no one is off limits, no family member is exempt from August Marks killzone. Gemma returning home to find her birds hacked to bits in her bed wasnt all that distressing since its Gemma and shes a hellspawn witch who deserves everything bad ever, but when she went into Thomas and Abels room to find the knife through the stuffed animal and the message scrawled on the wall in ominous crayon, it instantly became much more serious. With one move August Marks showed Teller he was willing to go to any level, that nothing was out of bounds and that Jax was truly out of his depth, something he admitted himself earlier in this episode. Between receiving hacked-off parts of their brother and having the lives of his children threatened from within his own home, it doesnt body to well for the preachers family. If the Sons werent motivated to sell them out before, this was an incredibly violent push in that direction. So what did you think of The Separation Of Crows? This was definitely a calm before the coming storm, but hopefully it wont be long before the thunderclouds roll in.
