Nomad and Rape

yeah, storyline sucked... All I can guess is that Gemma wanted the family/Sons to be back together again. Confessing about the rape was the only way she could do this.

It is interesting that it is Gemma's secrets that keep hurting the club all the way through to the last season.

Bc of how close the biker gang is. They’re like one big family (clay and Gemma are the parents, the rest are kids/Uncle Piney) and I have to be honest…Gemma is the real Pres of SAMCRO just like mom is the real head of the house (sorry guys it’s true lol). She influenced JT until it wasn’t optimal for the club. Then she put Clay into his spot and influenced him until it wasn’t optimal for the club. Then she was ready to move him out and put her son into the decision-makers spot until it wasn’t optimal for her vision of the club anymore. When the Aryans physically/emotionally attacked her, it was more personal than if they had just walked into the SOA clubhouse and started shooting. She’s the neck (aka the undercover head) and (most importantly) the glue of SOA. So when they attacked Gemma, Jax (as her biological child) was like I WONT STOP UNTIL THESE FUCKERS ARE DEAD and Clay (as her husband) was like I WONT STOP UNTIL THESE FUCKERS ARE DEAD AND OH LOOK I HAVE RESOURCES TO MAKE SURE THEY’RE DEAD (in the form of his biker gang). Also going nomad essentially like being homeless. So…long story short, she was about to lose everything if she didn’t speak up. Speaking up was her optimizing her position as the glue..and Gemma would never lose an opportunity to optimize lol.
