"Gemma!" "Way" " Wayne!" "Wayne!" "How did you know I was there?" "I heard it over the radio." "I recognized the description of the car." "Anonymous tip?" "Yeah." "You got to tell me something here, Gemma." "Where you going?" "St. Thomas." "No." "Got to get you to the hospital." "No hospital." "Oh, uh, what am I supposed to do here, Gemma?" "Hmm?" "Give me your cell." "Tara, it's you." "Hello." "Jax see you leave?" "I told him it was the hospital." "You need to tell me what happened so I can help you." "Use your imagination." "Maybe we should let her rest a while." "We have to get her to the hospital." "No." "I can't treat you in my living room." "Look, I'd have to check in." "The insurance and shit." "Everybody'll know." "We'll go home, get you some clothes." "Then we'll pick up Abel." "I'll sign him in." "We'll say we're running more tests." "You could get fired for that." "I'll figure it out." "Promise me... you won't tell anyone." "Gemma." "Promise." " We gotta tell Clay." " Not clay." "Not Jax." "No one." "All right." "I- l won't say anything." "Τhey're gonna see her face." "I know." "Stay with her, all right?" "What?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Just a minute." "I love you." "I do." "Shut up." "Clay." "Clay." "Clay." "Get out." "Come on." "It's AIvarez on the prepay." "Alvarez?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Niners came into my hood and took out one of my guys." "How do you know it was the Niners?" "Niggers blew out his guts." "Got him holding up nine fingers." "Shit's going sideways out here, man." "We're gonna need those AKs, as many as you got." "I'm sorry, man." "I wanna help you out, but this A.Τ.F. thing's got us tapped." "You better be telling me some straight shit, ese." "I'm as straight as shit gets, man." "Sorry." "I thought you said Opie tagged that Mayan S.O.A." "Ηe did." "He carved it on his belly." "Yeah, well, Alvarez just found the guy- his guts blown out, holding up a nine." "Had to be Jax." "Call Laroy." "Τell him it's about to jump off." "He's gonna need some guns." "Another magical day to be alive." "All right." "I'll send somebody out." "Rosen." "Otto wants to talk to us." "Ηere comes Captain Black." "Your intel checked out." "Dead Mayan was flashing our sign." "Ηad to be the Mexicans killed their own guy." "Guess you and me, we're going steady again." "I'm happy to say, our little Mexican retail experiment's in the rearview, brother." "You look tired, man." "Yeah, well, recreational "H" is drying up." "Ain't no stimulus package for the middle-class powder user." "Black and brown back to fighting over the junkie trade." "Yeah." "Recession sucks." "Gonna need two dozen AKs." "All right." "They'll be simple though." "No scopes, no mods." "Need 'em tonight." "I'll call you with the location." "Something you fellas need?" "A black man can't stop for gas in Charming?" "As long as he buys enough to get him back to the hood." "I thought we don't shit where we eat." "Relax." "Just mending some fences." "What?" "There's a car out by the power and water construction site." " lt needs a tow." " Well, call the garage." "It's Gemma's Caddy." "She ran off the road last night heading home from Jax's." "Jesus Christ." "She all right?" "Yeah." "She's with Tara at, uh, St. Thomas." "You just telling me this shit now, right?" "I just found out." "I came looking for you." "Shit." "Neeta started today." "Good morning." "Morning." "My God." "What happened?" "I'm fine." "I need to get him to St. Thomas." " Why?" " I'll have him back before lunch." "I thought he just had all his tests." "Ηe needs more." "is something wrong?" "No." "I'm Dr. Knowles." "I'm his doctor." "Wanna tell me what's going on here?" "I need to get both of them to the hospital." "Maybe I should follow you." "That would be good." " Step aside!" "Step aside!" " Man down!" "Man down!" "Out of the way!" " How's the homecoming queen?" " He's a little green." "How's Gemma?" "Better than you." "Good." "Good." "All right, all right." "There's a number of small tears." "It's nothing that won't heal on its own." "I'm gonna start you on antibiotics right away." "It's standard procedure to treat for chlamydia and gonorrhea, even before the test results are back." "Hmm." "You should have a plastic surgeon look at this." "I've been hit before." "Sorry to interrupt, Doc." "I need a word with Gemma." "Let him in." "Oh, I'm sorry." "What is it?" "Clay's here." "You son of a bitch." "I told him you were in a car accident." "Wha-What?" "Ran your Caddy into a concrete barrier out by the utility shed." "Take my head off if you want." "I just didn't see any other way to sell this." "He don't know about nothing else." "I'll go and talk to him." "I don't wanna see him yet." "Actually, they're all here." "Jax and the guys." "Jesus Christ." "Is there anyone you didn't tell?" "I'll- l'll handle it." "Maybe I should help her." "This wasn't about me." "Well, what do you mean?" "What those animals did." "It was to hurt Clay." "Jax." "Anyone finds it out... they win." "I can't let that happen." "Who's "they," honey?" "That don't matter." "Ηey." "Hey." "Ηow is she?" "She's fine." "Yeah?" "Just a few bruises." "Okay, good." "And you?" "Look, I'm glad you asked for the truth." "It means a lot to me you wanted to figure out how to make this work." "Yeah." "I have to let Clay know." "Yeah." "What's going on?" "is she okay?" "Yeah." "Um, when she hit the barrier, she took a pretty good shot to the face." "There's some swelling." "I have to run a few more tests, but she's gonna be fine." "But, uh, it's nothing serious?" "No." "No." "Can I see her?" "It's gonna be a little while." "Okay, well, uh, I appreciate you taking care of her, Doc." "Oh." "Of course." "Something wrong?" "Τhey found that Mayan we visited." "Ηe was throwing up nine fingers." "Brown's a little pissed at black." "I made a decision- good of the club." "You settle that shit on your own?" "Yeah." "Spur-of-the-moment seemed like the right thing." "I'm sure you can understand." "The feds raided Luann's studio." "Asset seizure." "Wiped her out." " Okay, me and Ope, we'll go deal with Otto." " Ope goes with Tig." "Take Bobby." "Ηe could use the fresh air." "I'll handle it alone." "Hey!" "I arranged a little entertainment." "Appreciate that." "White on white?" "What's that about?" "Our Aryan friends are getting a little choosy... about who they burn crosses with." "Something's trickling down from the top of Mount Whitey." "Not sure what." "Not why I asked to see you." "I know." "I heard about Luann." "How can we help?" "Τhis punk producer's making a play for her talent." "Τhe feds shutting her down, this asshole will hijack all of 'em." "We'll talk to him." "She needs time and money to get up and running in a new space." "We can get her the time." "And the money?" "We're only half healed, Otto." "We don't have it." "This seizure by the feds, it's Stahl pissing in my mouth for what I did to her." "And I did that for Sam Crow." "I know that." "I don't want her back in front of the camera, Jax." "Told her she'd never have to do that again." "I won't let that happen." "That's a promise." "Yeah, okay." "Τhanks." " Here you go." " He's a little man." "Okay." "I'll be back in a minute." "Dump those in the back." "She didn't tell him." "Morrow's old lady." "They don't know what happened." "Ηow do you know?" "The nigger nanny said Gemma got hurt in a car accident." "Clay's laughing, playing with some little kid." "You said this was gonna rip them up." "It will." "It will." "Unraveling the matriarch will destabilize 'em." "Τhey'll all little boys who need a strong mommy." "But if this bitch doesn't say anything, what the hell does that mean?" "It means we underestimated Mrs. Morrow." "Oh, baby." "I'm so sorry." "I'm sorry." "No, it-it's okay." "I'm-I'm just- l'm just kind ofjumpy." "Now, you're gonna lay off the midnight joyrides." "Yeah." "You okay?" "Oh. I'm fine." "It's kind of hot." "Τhanks." "It's what I was going for." "Are you ready to go home?" "You know, they have to, uh- They got to do some more X-rays." "Neeta can give me a lift." "I can wait." "No, honey, it's okay." "I guess it's gonna be a while." "You sure?" "Yeah, I'm sure." "I'm really- I'm" " I'm fine." "Okay." "I love you." "Mmm." "I love you too." "Add these two cameras to the list, okay?" "Ηere's half your retainers." "Give you the other half at the end of the week." "You stay away from Georgie." "Hear me?" "All his actors end up strung out and turning tricks." "Okay." "Okay." "We will." "Yeah." "Marvelous." " Oh, my God." " They did clean you out, Luann." "Otto wasn't kidding." "Τhat's some lovely merchandise walking out that door." "Τhey'll keep walking if I don't come up with the rest of their money." "Otto says some guy's giving you trouble." "Georgie Caruso." "Shitbag's threatening my girls they don't join his company." "His name is Georgie?" "Can't you just talk to him?" "Make some kind of temporary arrangement?" "Isn't how it works with this." "Georgie's game is fear." "Goddamn 'roid crew runs his girls like pimps running pussy." "If I could just get the money I loaned Sam Crow" "That's not gonna happen today." "Look, I said to Otto I'd back this guy off of you, and that's what I'm gonna do." "Where's this guy's office?" "Number six." "Number six." "Oh!" "I love that movie." "Oh, I laughed, I cried, I came." "No shit." "Must have been good." "Won an Anal Oscar." "Oh, hey, hey, hey." "Here we go." "You need something?" "We're here to see Georgie." "You got an appointment?" " Jesus Christ!" " No." "Then you don't see him." "I'm trying to cut in here!" "Hey, auditions are out back." "Let me guess." "Georgie Caruso." "They were just leaving, Mr. Caruso." "That's too bad, 'cause this one here's got kind of a Brad Pitt thing going, only not quite as gay." "Yeah. I'm a friend of Luann Delaney." "is that so?" "I'm real sorry about what happened." "You're terrorizing her actors." "It stops now." "I'm helping those girls." "Luann is out of business." "Luann's not out of business." "That's not what I heard." "Don't make me come back here," "Georgie." "Bye, Georgie." "You got a problem?" "Not now, man." "I feel pretty good." "Thanks." " Oh, cheerio!" " I told you I was sick." "Need six more." "You, uh- You doing okay?" "Uh" " Uh, family and stuff." "I guess." "I lost an old lady." "Yeah, I dumped an F.X.R. on the I-5, and poor bitch slid right in front of oncoming traffic." "Shit, I didn't know that." "Your kid's mom." "I wish it was that gash." "No, it was before I got patched." "I found out she was pregnant." "Really loved that one." "I keep dreaming... I'm back in Chino." "really violent shit." "And then I wake up relieved that I'm home." "It takes me a minute to realize that I'm alone in bed." "You're not alone, Ope." "Ah. I appreciate it." "Shit." "What?" "Uh, that's just someone I don't wanna see." "She's gonna have a million questions." "We can wait in here." "Okay." "I'm not gonna do it today, 'cause I ain't a stupid sister." "But you know at some point, I'm gonna have some questions." "I know." "While we're here, you wanna say a prayer with me?" "Not big on praying." "Sure you are." "Look at the way you holding him." "I can see it in your face." "You thanking God." "It's gonna be okay." "Just tip your head back a little bit." "I don't think it's broken, so" " Wait a minute." "Hang on to that." "I told you not to stir things up." "Look what that asshole did to her." "This was Caruso?" "Who do you think?" "Little prick." "You guys must've really put the fear of God into him." "Tell 'em what Georgie said." "He told me to tell Luann that if the little biker boys show up again, he's gonna roll the cameras while he jams his dick up all your asses." "We'Il see Gemma later." "Jax, don't you do anything!" "Who the hell do you think you're talking to?" "Get her patched up!" "Okay, okay." "Call the rest of your talent!" "Tell them to lock their goddamn doors!" "Sorry." "Should we call Clay?" "He's on the guns." "Call the others." "It's baseball time." "Great." "God, you're so stiff." " You know, you- you won't score in the second half." " Georgie." "Georgie!" "Ηey!" "Get the hell out!" "Τhis is a closed set." "Love your work." " All right, all right." " Come here, you." "Oh!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Get back." "Don't even think about moving." "You okay?" "Yeah." "After what I saw what they did to Lyla, I just- lt's okay." "Sack!" "Sack!" "Yeah." "Get her out of here." "Okay." "Come on." "Hey!" "Shit!" "Nice to see you too, sugar tights." " Anybody else?" " Come on!" "You so much as send a friendly text to any of Luann's girls, your next movie" "Canseco Does Georgie." "You understand?" "I get it." "There's a ton of guys like Georgie out there." "If Luann can't pay her talent, they'll keep coming, so to speak." "Τhat's why she wants the 50K." "But that's not gonna happen." "Obviously." "But we can offer her something else- a partner." "What are you talking about?" "Τhe empty gun warehouse we just built." " Same size as Caruso Films." " All of a sudden you're Larry Flynt?" "Georgie's just a scumbag with muscle and a lease, right?" "Ηis staff and talent do all the work." "We already have staff and talent- Luann." "So we're the scumbags with the lease and the muscle." "Why not?" "We offer her protection, a space, front her a little cash for the shit the feds took, split the profits." "Yeah, and I could upgrade her Internet shit." "There's plenty of room for servers in that space." "And that's where the real cash is." "And I was blessed with an excellent eye for casting." "Clubs get into trouble when they take on too much." "Guns have been downsized." "We could use the extra income." "It's a legitimate business, Clay." "We run it clean." "Feds think we turned over a new leaf, they go away." "And at the very least, we'lI get Bobby laid." "Hey." "Thoughts?" " Everybody loves pussy." " I second that." " Third it." " I'm a very big fan of pussy." "All in favor?" "Like I got to ask." "Pussy!" "All right." "Looks like we're making movies." "We got a delivery to make." "I'll tell Luann she's got a new partner." "Jax?" "Anyone here?" "Ηello!" "Ah, shit." "Jax?" "Shit." "You okay?" "Oh, God." "I'm sorry." "It's okay." "I didn't- l didn't mean to be such a pain in the ass, Jax." " Wait a minute." " No, don't." "Luann, relax." "You think I brought you here to Adriana you?" "I'm not gonna hurt you." "I'm gonna help you." "Your new studio." "New studio?" "What do you mean?" "You're not gonna be able to compete without protection and investors." "We're gonna help you get back on your feet." "Sam Crow as a partner?" "Yep." "What's the split?" "50-50." "And our debt goes away." "And if I say no?" "It's your only play, darlin'." "We both know that." "Life was so much easier when I was just sucking dick." "All right, boys." "Two dozen AKs." "Looks good." "Pay the man." " Go!" "Go!" " All right, fool!" "Get up, man!" " Go, go!" " This way!" " Clay, it's the Mayans!" " Over there!" "Bobby's hit in the shoulder." "He's bleeding real bad." "Ηold your fire, man." "Let 'em have the guns." " Those are our guns." " We'll get you more goddamn guns." "Got to take care of our guys." " Jesus Christ." " Opie!" "Opie!" " ls it bad?" " Is it bad?" "No." "Oh, it's just a scratch." "Let's go." "Get the hell out of here." "Yeah, nice homecoming." "Information was good." "I owe you." "Yes, you do." "Who was that?" "Oh, it was just a... friend from my church." "Gemma." "Sorry I'm so late." "Wha-What time is it?" "It's 1 0:00." "Ηow are you?" "I'm fine." "Gemma." "You need to talk to somebody about what happened." "It doesn't mean you're weak. lt just- That's why I've got you." "Hello." "Oh, shit. I'm sorry." "I" " I fell asleep." " You didn't have to stay." " It's okay." "Feel better." "Excuse me." "Gemma." "What?" "I, uh, have to go to the clubhouse." "Medical emergency." "Oh, shit." "Stay here." "No." "Go ahead." "I'll watch him." " ls it all right?" " Well, you're lucky it went straight through." "Aw, Jesus Christ." "Mayans, they crashed our little Niner delivery, man." "You okay, bro?" "Yeah. I'm in good hands." "They got away with two cases of the AKs." "Oh, man." "Yeah, yeah." "Jax." "In here." "That little judgment call you made for the good of the club?" "It came back to bite us in the ass, almost killed Bobby." "I see that." "Whatever you may think, the truth is, everything I do is to protect what we got." "It's never arbitrary." "And it's never reactive." "Been doing this for 30 years." "I know a few things." "Τaking that tag off the Mayan was the right decision." "You know that." "You wanna challenge me?" "Fine." "I don't give a shit." "But the minute it stops becoming about this club... and it starts becoming personal, they'll know that." "They'll lose respect for you, and they won't trust you anymore." "And then you'll be handling everything on your own." "Think about that, son." "You okay?" "Yeah." "You?" "Yeah."
