Complete story — includes the ending

Ernest Darby's brothel is busted, but two of his girls also work for Cara Cara. With pressure mounting on the porn production, Clay decides that the club will shut the business down and shift its attention back to gun smuggling, by helping the Chinese mafia re-establish their connection. Jax believes that Clay is trying to undermine his attempts to legitimate the club. Clay says that the porn business has already cost the club "an old lady," and Jax brings up Donna once again. Clay reminds Jax of his promise to kill him should he say her name again, and Jax offers him the chance, claiming that Clay needs a majority vote to close Cara Cara for good. Clay sends Opie, Jax, Bobby, and Tig to intimidate a customs judge who is overseeing the mafia's gun runner's case. Unser and Gemma attend church services together. Zobelle gives Hale the location of Darby's other brothel and meth lab in the hopes that he will back the League in their dispute with SAMCRO, but Hale lets SAMCRO take care of them. Darby, angry that he has been sold out, demands that Zobelle take action against SAMCRO. Zobelle sends Darby and Weston to burn down the warehouse where Cara Cara operates, and Weston knocks Darby out before leaving him for dead in the burning warehouse. The next day, Jax arrives at the fire, and believing it to be Clay's handiwork, declares that he is leaving the club and going nomad.
