The series spanned across seven intense seasons, each leading towards a single profound revelation that was inevitably tragic in nature. This dark narrative was influenced significantly by Shakespeare’s work, specifically ‘Hamlet’. The creator of the show, Kurt Sutter, cleverly modeled the fictional town of Charming, California after the setting of Hamlet’s kingdom. The leader of the motorcycle club, Sons of Anarchy M.C., was Jax Teller, who held a complex relationship with his stepfather, Clay, reminiscent of Hamlet’s struggle with Claudius. John Teller, Jax’s father and former president, met an untimely death, which Clay was suspected to have played a part in, mirroring the murder of Old Hamlet by Claudius.

In the final act, Gemma took on the role of Hamlet’s mother Gertrude, adding depth to the ensemble. However, her character seemed subtly malevolent rather than overtly so. The narrative reached its climax in the last season as Jax found himself irreversibly corrupted after killing his wife Tara. The series Sons of Anarchy concluded tragically, mirroring the end of any classic tale, with Jax embracing his destiny and meeting a similar fate to his father. This bleak ending was foreseeable, but not as grim as a hidden hypothesis could have made the storyline even more sinister, offering no glimmer of hope.

Chibs Was Either a Victim of Inconsistent Writing or a Rat

In the rough and lawless setting of the motorcycle club depicted in Sons of Anarchy, individuals from various backgrounds found themselves drawn in. Generally, this club was populated by ruthless criminals, driven by their unwavering allegiance to SAMCRO to perform some of the most appalling deeds. However, amidst this grim landscape, Filip “Chibs” Telford remained one of the few characters who kept a sense of morality throughout the series.

As Clay became more engrossed in a sinister existence, Chibs remained the soulful core of the series. A Scottish member with links to The True IRA, he was a principled biker who consistently sided with Jax during the struggle for the club’s essence. Over time, Chibs ascended to become the club’s President, demonstrating unwavering loyalty. However, in the final season, Chibs found himself navigating treacherous waters. The seventh season marked the darkest point in the Sons of Anarchy’s journey as Jax descended into chaos following Tara’s demise. Driven by a thirst for retribution, Jax moved increasingly towards Clay’s path, and his club was compelled to follow suit without question.

It might have displeased Chibs, as he had typically acted as the voice of reason within the club. However, it seemed strange to him that Jax continued to move deeper into violent actions, especially since these actions weren’t directed at the person who truly caused his wife’s death. Yet, despite this, Chibs appeared to support Jax’s reign of violence, which was puzzling.

In a different phrasing: It’s plausible that Chibs wasn’t aware of it, but he should have been worried about Jax’s soul given his past actions. Principled behavior tends to persist, not disappear in just a few episodes. An engaging theory could be that throughout the series, Chibs served as the catalyst pushing Jax towards his darkest impulses. However, another captivating thought is that Chibs might have been secretly working for both sides after years of loyalty.

Chibs Had Ties to the True IRA

In the TV show “Sons of Anarchy,” the cast was richly developed with characters having their own personal struggles. Among the supporting biker gang members, Chibs stood out due to his extensive backstory. Unlike many other characters, viewers got a deep understanding of the Irishman’s past. Originally a medic, Chibs initially bonded with The True IRA and the Belfast branch of the Sons of Anarchy. In Ireland, he was married to Fiona and had a daughter named Kerrianne. However, his peaceful life was shattered when ruthless Jimmy O stole everything from him.

1. Instead of “Jealousy and steal his wife and daughter,” consider using “Envy led him to take his wife and child.”

2. In place of “His last master stroke was exiling Chibs from Ireland, which led him to Redwood Original,” try saying “Exiling Chibs from Ireland marked the final move that eventually brought him to Redwood Original.”

3. Instead of “Chibs’ ties to Belfast became extremely important during Season 3 when Abel’s kidnapping drove the club overseas,” consider using “During Season 3, when Abel was kidnapped and the club had to go overseas, Chibs’ connections in Belfast gained significant importance.”

4. Instead of “While Jax was looking for his son, Chibs had a decently sized subplot about reuniting with his wife and daughter under the dangerous gaze of Jimmy O,” try saying “Simultaneously, while Jax searched for his son, Chibs found himself in a substantial subplot focused on reconnecting with his family amidst the watchful eye of Jimmy O.”

5. A more concise version could be: “During Season 3, as Jax sought his son and Chibs pursued his family, both were under Jimmy O’s scrutiny.”

Chibs felt justified when he finally managed to take down Jimmy O, given all the anguish and hardship Jimmy inflicted upon him. However, it’s important to note that being a true member of the IRA in the series “Sons of Anarchy” is no laughing matter. The True IRA depicted on the show mirrors the real-life Irish Republican Army, which has been battling for independence for centuries. Being part of this organization requires unwavering dedication and willingness to spill blood in service of the cause.

In my perspective as a movie reviewer, it wasn’t Chibs who willingly departed from The True IRA. Instead, he was pushed out by a foe, yet his unwavering allegiance to the ideology of the organization remained. This potential conflict of interest became more pronounced with the arrival of Galen O’Shay, who harbored animosity towards Jax, thereby escalating the strife between the Sons of Anarchy and The True IRA.

Galen was killed around the same period as Clay’s downfall, which might have confused Chibs’ feelings. Additionally, Jax’s later actions may have annoyed Chibs deeply. Previous seasons hinted that Chibs was quite upset when Jax gave control of the gun trade to Marks, but in Season 7, he didn’t express any worries, even when the Irish were being targeted for violence. This might suggest that Chibs could have been secretly working with the Irish to undermine Jax’s leadership throughout Season 7. While there was a slight hint of Chibs’ Irish loyalty, this theory would explain his strange behavior during that season.

Chibs Was Pushing Jax Towards Predictable Consequences

As the last season of “Sons of Anarchy” approached, it became clear that events were unfolding as they should. Tara’s demise served as a catalyst, steering the series towards the direction it was meant to take. Just like Hamlet, the loss of a cherished figure marked a significant turning point in the protagonist’s mental state.

In the narrative of Jax’s villainous character, the plot often led him to perform questionable actions. Throughout much of the season, he persistently followed a misleading trail regarding his wife’s death, a path that many Sons endorsed. Among them, Chibs was particularly persistent in encouraging Jax on this wrongful pursuit.

When Jax was wavering in his determination to pursue the Chinese, it was Chibs who persuaded him to persist with this course of action, even though they had discovered that the Chinese were the ones responsible for Tara’s murder. This behavior seemed out of character for Chibs, as he is typically known for being one of the most level-headed members of their club. Jax’s ongoing pursuit of vengeance was leading to a spiral of violence, and Chibs has always been against such bloodshed. This could have been an attempt by Chibs to sow discord in Jax’s leadership, or perhaps he simply didn’t realize that the Chinese weren’t actually responsible for Tara’s death. Either way, Chibs would understand that this war was unsustainable and potentially destructive.

From a film enthusiast’s perspective, it seems that Chibs’ intentions, if they existed, never manifested on-screen, at least not in a way that was overt. Any hint of Chibs attempting to disrupt Jax’s power appears to be buried beneath the layers of subtext. The intense actions we witnessed from Chibs during the final season may have been a grim portrayal of his character development, a side of the Scotsman none of us wished to see. Despite being one of the kindest members of the Sons of Anarchy, Chibs found himself trapped in the heart-wrenching tragedy that lies at the core of this FX series.

In the harsh environment they inhabited, it was not unthinkable for Chibs to succumb to darkness. His transformation into a bloodthirsty individual may have been largely influenced by all the tragedies they had endured. Much like other club members, Chibs held Jax in high regard, considering him almost like a son, and this sentiment extended to Tara as well. To the club, Tara was an innocent figure, being the President’s Old Lady. Her untimely death called for retribution, and true to their nature, the Sons would not falter in backing such violent actions.

In the last season, Chibs showed some unsettling actions that left viewers uneasy. The portrayal of his relationship with Lt. Jarry felt hastily written and intense, with scenes that were uncomfortable to watch. An unexpected twist was Chibs engaging in a sexual encounter on top of a police car, which seemed out of character for him. Later, during their conversation about their relationship, they ended up hitting each other, which added to the confusion. Despite the Sons’ history of questionable treatment towards women, Chibs generally stood out as an exception. However, Season 7 raised many eyebrows with its depiction of Chibs, leaving some fans feeling uncertain about his character.
