This is a Shakespearean tragedy after all, and few characters survive those. Sutter has already told us that it ain’t going to be pretty. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out in the final season. He makes us feel the loss, which is what great storytelling looks like. Sutter gives us these remarkable characters and then takes them away from us. When Jax comes home to find his wife brutally murdered, it’s hard not to feel what he feels. Roosevelt’s death to the pile was just grim icing on a very tragic cake. And finally, because it came via a carving fork to the brain. Second, because it was at the hands of Gemma, the one person who should have known what she was going through, who should have protected her. First, because it finally looked as though she would be delivered from all of the evil that the club has dragged her into. We’ve watched Opie’s head explode, Hale get obliterated by a car, and Clay get shot in the neck. It would probably be too much to say that Tara’s death was the most brutal of the main characters who’ve died. Which of course is what makes it so hard to see her go. If you care anything about actors who can make human complexity come alive, then Siff is easily one of the best women on TV. Siff’s Tara has been put through the ringer over the course of the series, and the subtlety of pain and pride, love and anger, fear and strength that she has brought to the performance is a thing of beauty. And as for Siff, any viewer who doesn’t see her as one of the strongest members of the Sons of Anarchy cast is truly missing out. Her shocking brutality is matched only by her intense love. Sagal, for her part, offers a master class in creating a character that is at once sympathetic and infuriating. Katey Sagal (Sutter’s real life wife) and Maggie Siff are true heavyweights who have crafted brilliant performances that both emotional repel and attract the viewer. A lot of the credit for making these great characters has to go to the talented actors who play them of course. They hold their narrative weight every bit as much as, and sometimes even more than, the men. His women aren’t just there for set decoration. Kurt Sutter, to his credit, is one of the few men in Hollywood who isn’t afraid of creating fully fleshed out, deeply interesting female characters.
And people who run counter encounter a lot of hostility." It is deeply unfortunate that such gender hostility exists, not only because it shows that equality of the ses isn’t as far along as we’d hoped, but because it blinds these narrow-minded fans from what is a ultimately a wonderfully complex and skillfully developed character. "I also think there are pretty deep gender cultural issues that have to do with a certain kind of fantasy of male and female roles," she said, "and a certain kind of fantasy around this anti-hero-the man who does terrible, terrible things but who we root for anyway because it’s an enactment of an adolescent male fantasy that people take great pleasure in seeing played out. In an article yesterday for Entertainment Weekly, Maggie Siff opened up about the fan hostility towards her character Tara, comparing it to the fan hatred of Skyler on Breaking Bad. Tara, on the other hand, makes the simple mistake of going home.
He spends the rest of the day playing with his sons and wrapping up lose ends: handing over the presidency to Bobby, giving Juice the kiss of death for his betrayal.

a deal: Jax will take the wrap for the KG-9s in exchange for Tara and the club being free and clear. He is going to trade his freedom for hers. She only asks Jax that he not hurt her in front of them.

In what was easily one of the most heart wrenching scenes of the series (Maggie Siff’s performance, the combination of fear, love, and heartbreak that she pours into this scene, is absolutely wonderful to watch), Tara pleads not for her own life, but for the well being of her children. Tara showed up for the meet and, after it ended, Jax arrived to confront her. Bobby and Juice followed the attorney to a park in Lodi, a park that Jax knew Abel loved to play in. She scheduled a meet with her attorney in order to go over the deal. Though Tara had gone on the run and failed to show up at her meeting with the D.A., her plans for ratting on the club were only postponed.
