First of all, if you aren't caught up with SOA, you shouldn't even consider reading what follows. I'm obviously going to be spoiling the hell out of the previous seasons—and a couple from already-aired episodes from this season. So, seriously, if you haven't been following, just get the hell out. Now.
Okay. Now it's just the rest of us die-hards. The Redwood Originals.
I'm not gonna blab much here. If you started reading this for the headline, you came for the list. So here you go. In seven seasons that have been full of shocking and horrifying twists, these are the ten that rocked me hardest.
10. Hobart’s Tattoo (from “Giving Back”):
9. Bobby’s Eye (from “Greensleeves”):
8. Otto Murders Pamela Toric (from “Crucifixed”):
7. Clay Beats Gemma (from “Hands”):
6. Jax Shoots Up Wendy (From “Darthy”):
5. Otto’s Tongue (From “J’ai Obtenu Cette”):
4. Gemma Assaulted (from “Albification”):
3. Gemma Kills Tara (From “A Mother’s Work”):
2. Tig’s Daughter (From “Sovereign”):
1. Opie Dies (From “Laying Pipe”):
Of course, the series isn't over yet...
