Sons Of Anarchy: 15 Insane Details You Definitely Missed!

12. Nod To The Sopranos

In the second-last episode, Nero tells Jax's ex-wife, Wendy, to back off or she'll be "riding in the trunk." She quickly retorts with "It won't be the first time." It may sound like a throwaway line but this quote is a reference to The Sopranos.

Drea de Matteo, who portrays Wendy, also played Christopher's partner, Adriana, in the Emmy-award winning gangster series. When Adriana confessed to her mobster boyfriend that she was a mole for the FBI, Tony Soprano had his henchman drive her into the woods and put a bullet in her skull.

Adriana's demise is also referenced in the episode, Small Tears, when Otto's wife becomes convinced SAMCRO is going to have her whacked. When Jax learns this, he jokingly asks her, "You think I brought you here to Adriana you?"
