"Booster" is the second episode of the fourth season of the FX original series Sons of Anarchy, and the series' forty-first episode overall.

Synopsis[]

The Sons of Anarchy are forced to make a decision that could challenge the future of the club.

Plot[]

Gemma lets Clay know about the note she found from Maureen Ashby to Jax. The four Russian bodies, including the undercover FBI agent named Ronald Zwersky, are dumped and discovered at a local Charming Heights development. Mayor Jacob Hale Jr presses Eli Roosevelt to go after these "white trash barbarians". Jax and Clay deliver a stockpile of guns to the Mayans President Marcus Alvarez and Romero "Romeo" Parada (the leader of the Galindo Cartel) and arrange for the sons to sell guns & ammo, and (to Jax's surprise) transporting cocaine for the Mayans and Galindo Cartel.

Jax Teller and Clay make each other deals. That if Jax backs Clay with the drug business, Clay will support him leaving the SOA once Clay eventually steps down and that Opie patches up as President of SAMCRO. Gemma starts searching for the Ashby letters, and notices Abel pulling single page copies of the letters from Tara's bag. Clay makes a deal with Elliott Oswald to lease his Lumber Mill Warehouse through a dummy corporation.

Opie and Jax run into a group of Russians at a Wahiawa safehouse in retaliation to the stealing of their guns and recent killing of Viktor Putlova. Gemma confides in Wanye Unser about the connection between John Teller, Maureen Ashby and the letters smuggled into Jax's bag on his way home from Belfast and the fact Tara came across them. She understands how they detail the way Gemma and Clay betray John Teller. Eli Roosevelt pulls in the MC Clubhouse, begins an impromtu Fire Inspection and detains the club in a very untimely and destructive way. Romero and his cartel swipe in guns-a-blazing to rescue Jax and Opie apparently from his contacts in the R.O.C. (Russian organized crime).

To raise everyone's spirits walking around a trashed clubhouse, Tara informs the club that she and Jax are engaged.

Church Meetings[]

Bobby: SAMCRO's never been in the drug business.
Piney: And never will.
Opie: The last thing we wanna do is give Alvarez leverage over our business.
Tig: We've been good with the Mayans for over 2 years now, Ope.
Jax: Yeah and let's not forget if it wasn't for our brown alliance, Russians would've shivved all of us.
Clay: Cartel's already committed. Word's been put out. Russians aren't gonna touch us.
Juice: What about the feds? Drugs put us on DEA's radar.
Opie: We're gonna find a new buyer.
Bobby: It may not pay as much, but with the Niners and the Italians, we'll still earn.
Chibs: The IRA have an expectation of big volume. Without the Russians, that burden lands right here with us.
Clay: Cartel gives us all the demand our supply can handle. We do this short-term, cash out.
Piney: It's a goddamn cartel! There is no short-term!
Jax: I think it's worth the risk.
Jax: (puts bag on table and pulls out stacks of cash) Down payment for our first order.
(stunned silence)
Clay: We should all think about this. We'll vote when the others get back. (bangs gavel) Jax, go check on the ammo, and uh, take Ope with you.
(everyone leaves except Clay, Bobby and Tig)
Clay: (to Tig) I want this.
Tig: Yeah.
Clay: Tell Happy we're gonna have to keep the guns at his aunt's house a couple more days. I gotta lock down the storage.
Tig: Alright. (leaves)
Bobby: Clay. Give me a minute? (both sit down) This move, I know why you're doing it. But all due respect, it's a mistake.
Clay: Well, I appreciate that. But I'm not asking for your counsel.
Bobby: Push this through, it kills SAMCRO. I love you, brother. But I love this club more. Not gonna let it happen.
Clay: Well, I- I love you too. Do what you have to do.
