Hank 'Tranq' Loza was the El Pacificador of the Mayans Motorcycle Club, Santo Padre charter and a major character on Mayans MC, a spinoff of the FX original series Sons of Anarchy. Played by American actor Frankie Loyal, Hank makes his debut in the series' premiere, "Perro/Oc", in season one. Playing a recurring role through the same and subsequent seasons.

Biography[]

Hank is a former bare-knuckle brawler and embodies everything that a tough biker would be. Hank is physically, a giant man and is well capable of hand to hand combat. Hank's first charter was Mayans Oakland, sponsored by El Padrino himself, Marcus Alvarez.

Hank was deeply loyal to Alvarez, most likely stemming from the deep history between the two. Hank acts as his man on the inside throughout season two and three when Alvarez is working for the Galindo Cartel and is out of the loop on a lot of club business. During the events of season four, when Alvarez fears he is losing respect within Santo Padre, Hank tries to assist Alvarez in seeing the error of his ways in which the charter is being run and initially, is on his side. Despite his deeply rooted loyalty; Hank still votes in favour of Alvarez being removed as Presidente of the charter. No longer believing his former sponsor is up to the task.

Hank shows to have a sensitive side, especially for the women in his life. He appeared to be in love with Nails, and was visibly saddened when she announced her engagement. He also cares deeply for his mother; in "Cleansing of the Temple" when he is shot during the civil war; in what could be his final moments, he makes time to call his mother to ensure she has the landlord fix up the steps in her home.

After being shot; Hank is physically not the same power he previously was; he is sometimes forced to walk with a cane. One part of Hank that can never be destroyed is his absolute dedication to his club.

They all agree they have a deal and a toast is made to their partnership. Bishop quickly draws his gun and shoots Jimmy Yen, a member of the Chinese triad in the back of the head. Taza, Hank and Bishop explain that they knew all along from Galindo that Jimmy was a traitor but the Chinese will not kill one of their own so Galindo asked them to take care of him.

Alice denies involvement but a man that EZ recognises from jail gets him suspicious as EZ remembers he was a shot caller for a military like organisation. Bishop sends Angel, EZ, Gilly and Hank to tail the man. They follow him and try to interrogate him but he and his crew are easily able to best the four in hand to hand combat and they leave without anything.

Back at Templo the club discuss what they learned from the mysterious man and his crew, they are obviously mercenaries or former military.

The club are leaving from Vicki's place to breach Alice's compound. They try to sneak in but are met with gunfire from Dennis Reed, Alice's son who runs off in to the night. Coco, Riz, Bishop, Hank and Taza clear the rest of the house, only to discover that everyone inside is dead.

Outside, Chuck "Chuckie" Marstein speaks to Bishop, Taza and Hank. He explains he has just seen Coco leaving agitated and in a hurry. He also reveals he saw Coco meeting with a young latina woman in a diner yesterday. Taza produces the picture of Adelita and asks if this was who Coco met but Chuckie is unsure. The trio immediately become suspicious as Coco said he was watching Alice's compound at the same time. Bishop sends Hank to follow him.

Hank follows Coco through the tunnels but ultimately doesn't find him. Frustrated, he calls Bishop who asks him to return to the clubhouse.

Angel enters and he admits that they found a tunnel in the desert while they were chasing Dennis, the tunnel leads to Vicki's place. Angel says he is aware there could be a rat and doesn't want to screw Riz but feels they need to know as it is odd.

The club attends Templo and Bishop announces to everyone that wasn't already aware that Miguel has been detained by border patrol. Their usual run will continue but Riz will stay behind.

Outside Templo, the club is surprised to see a young girl sitting at the table, Coco speaks up and announces that this is Leticia Cruz, his daughter, they all introduce themselves. Hank tells Coco he should spend the day with Leti rather than going on the run.

Angel, Creeper, Gilly and Hank head out to meet the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original, the mother charter of the Sons. They are here on usual gun dealing business. The trade is complete and they head out but get in to trouble with the cops on their way back. EZ takes the heat as the cops chase him, allowing the others to escape with the guns.

At Templo, EZ later returns following his beating with the cops. Bishop scolds him for his recklessness and says if he does something like that again he is out.

Now thoroughly suspicious of Riz, Bishop, Hank, Angel and Taza go to Vicki's and camp out by the tunnel. Riz later emerges with some immigrants he was smuggling under the border.

"Rata/Ch'o"[]

Bishop, Angel, Taza and Hank are grilling Riz for information on the tunnel. He explains that it's Vicki's and she helps people move from Mexico to the US. Bishop tells Riz that it is a club decision what happens to him and the tunnels.

At Templo, Bishop explains what Riz has been doing and Taza lays down the punishment. Riz will stay a full patch with all privileges but will lose his position as Secretary. The club will vote in a new Secretary and will start charging Vicki for the tunnel, taking 10% from smuggling immigrants and 10% from prostitution. Riz argues that that has nothing to do with the club but Hank shuts him down saying they will close Vicki's place altogether then. Furious, Riz leaves Templo. The vote passes unanimously.

Later that night, Alvarez arrives and calls for another Templo meeting to explain the developments with Miguel, the law is coming down hard on him from every angle. After Templo, Hank asks EZ to fix Alvarez's bike, Hank notices that EZ is acting very strangely.

The club are astounded at what they are seeing and hearing. Luisa then addresses everyone in attendance and her and Miguel confirm they are no longer enemies but are in fact partners.

"Cuervo/Tz'ikb'uul"[]

At Templo, Alvarez is discussing what he talked about with Miguel the previous night, he believes in the partnership with Los Olvidados and the Galindo cartel.

Hank, Bishop, EZ and Coco then head to a safehouse filled with human traffickers. They are working with Hobart's crew after Miguel's recent deal with Lincoln Potter. The club plans to plant evidence to make it seem like it was Los Olvidados that were working from the house so as to not arouse suspicion that the club and the cartel are working with them. Alvarez, who is now working for the Galindo Cartel is also on standby. The club, the mercs and Alvarez breach the house and kill the occupants, taking extra care to destroy any intel that would expose that this is not a Los Olvidados safehouse before planting their own fake evidence.

One of the mercs is able to capture Mini, a young member of Los Olvidados and the mercs plan to torture her for information. Alvarez and the club return to the house and kill the mercs before they are able to hurt Mini. They realise that Hobart, who had already left will quickly figure out what happened to his men.

Tucson Presidente Ibarra has come to the table. He needs the pipeline to continue to supply the prisons or brothers inside are going to die but Bishop refuses. EZ speaks up and says they are going to keep the heroin flowing to Arizona, the rest of the table goes ballistic but EZ silences them. He explains they keep Arizona in the loop to keep brothers inside safe. They take Canche out, taking his crown, using Tucson as the new conduit and work on making bigger less frequent runs that will go to Tucson who will distribute, making no need for Canche.

Happy subsequently explains that Mayans are to give a call if they want to pass through SOA territory. Bishop is taken aback by the sudden hostility, but Montez and Happy elaborate that their attack on the VM has caused issues. Bishop wonders if this was Chibs' decision to which Happy confirms, before leaving. Bishop admits he doesn't think much of Happy but, he's wary of Montez's intelligence.

Gilly drives a truck up to the wall on the Mexican side of the border at the pre-determined location. Angel and Bishop are in a truck exactly opposite them on the US side. Ramps are put in place on both sides and it’s immediately apparent they’re a foot too short on the U.S. as well as on the Mexican side. EZ realizes there’s been an additional foot added to the wall’s height, and Bishop confesses he’s going off dimensions from back when Bush was president. Steve radios in that the border patrol are done with the kids and will be at their location in two minutes-ish. Bishop wants to call it off, but EZ has an idea. He takes two spare tires and places them flat next to the Mexican side of the wall.

Creeper drives the truck with the ramp onto the tires and the Mexican side is now tall enough for EZ to drive the truck over. EZ tells Coco to buckle up as it’s going to be a rough ride once they hit the top. (The truck has to fall a foot before landing on the other ramp.) So much could go wrong – including a tire popping – but fortunately nothing does. EZ, now with the drugs successfully over the border and on the U.S. side, zooms off to make the delivery.

Santo Padre and other charters head in to Templo with Alvarez sitting at the head of the table once again.

The club are discussing the new drug plan and an argument soon breaks out over Yuma's part, they have been stepping on the heroin with fentanyl. Downer, a Yuma Mayan argues that since Canche took over the drug supplying from Santo Padre, profits have never been higher and a "few dead junkies is the price of what we do". EZ asks if the club has heard anything about the Galindo family and Hank says he presumes they are dead as the Lobos New Generation Cartel (LNG) has been stepping on Galindo turf since Miguel went missing. Angel pipes up and says he hated the cartel, especially Nestor Oceteva, Miguel's head of security. The club crack up but an annoyed Alvarez quickly silences them. Alvarez then says that the Yuma pipeline and partnership with the LNG is the future of the club. Taza speaks up and says that Santo Padre haven't had any action in months and feel like they are being left out. An argument quickly arises but Alvarez throws everyone out of Templo before any physical fights can break out.

Santo Padre is in disarray after they learn that the Oakland clubhouse was hit last night. Canche and Alvarez arrive. Hank announces that five brothers have been killed and four are in the intensive care unit. Among the dead lies Coco, who was sent to Oakland on Alvarez's orders.

Hank sits at the table with Canche, EZ and Alvarez as the club try to figure out who is behind the hit. EZ says he doesn't know who to trust and can't even trust everyone at the table. This enrages Canche who reminds EZ that he started the civil war in the first place. The pair exit Templo to announce to the rest of the club that there will be no retaliation yet as they don't know who is responsible. Gilly believes it was the Sons, and the club are angry to learn there will be nothing done immediately.

Hank hears a bike pull up and rushes outside with Creeper to defend, EZ is already outside, the man turns out to be Manny. Manny says he is there to kill some Sons and came as soon as he heard. The trio are confused as they have had no confirmation it is the Sons but Manny assures them that Oakland has confirmed it.

The club return to Templo after confirmation that it was the Sons who attacked Oakland. Alvarez informs them that they will react but not right now as the club is still too divided. He wants to reach out to SAMCRO first. Creeper speaks up and says that he doesn't want to wait and wants to fight now, Gilly agrees. EZ bravely squares up to Alvarez and tells him they aren't waiting and will act now. He proposes a plan that the club will kill Les Packer, President of SAMDINO who is currently in hospital undergoing chemotherapy and is unlikely to survive much longer. They take out Packer and they take out their leadership. Taza remarks that it is a suicide mission and EZ agrees saying that is why he will do it along with Angel and Gilly.

Alvarez reminds EZ how dangerous this plan is but agrees nonetheless.

"The Calling of Saint Matthew"[]

The club meet and Alvarez reveals he and EZ met with Miguel Galindo and El Banquero’s sister, Soledad about reopening the drug pipeline. The club are shocked to learn that Miguel is still alive. EZ believes this deal could put Santo Padre back on top and will make them untouchable. The club likes that idea but Alvarez announces he’s going to say no to which there is much disagreement with. Alvarez believes the deal is poison and they don’t need it. Gilly points out this decision will leave them vulnerable, but Alvarez is determined to end the bloodshed. Bishop disagrees and calls for the death of all Sons. EZ agrees with Bishop and doesn’t think now is the time to change course. Alvazrez is certain they need to step back, but Gilly and Hank throw their support behind EZ. Alvzrez doesn’t care. It’s his decision and the matter is now closed.

Taza then speaks up, he announces that he doesn't like the direction the club is heading in and he has decided he would like to go Nomad.

At Templo later, the Santo Padre Mayans declare they still want revenge, but Alvarez wants peace, saying there's now a ceasefire with the Sons of Anarchy. They are also horrified to learn that multiple Yuma Mayans, including Manny have been burned alive by SAMDINO, Alvarez defends the attack saying it was unsanctioned by some rogue Sons and peace is still on the table. EZ refuses to accept anything less than surrender and soon brings up the kill switch, which allows a charter to remove a president via unanimous vote. Although Angel seemingly hesitates, the club votes to remove Alvarez, choosing war over peace. Alvarez angrily pounds his fist on the table, reminding all present that this is his club and he has made many sacrifices for them. He exits, stating that he will be happy he's not around to see the club burn.

EZ steps up to Presidente in Alvarez's place, making Bishop his Vice Presidente once more, citing his experience and leadership ability. EZ places himself at the head of the table and gives a rousing speech to his brothers.

Santo Padre, invigorated with this new development in leadership begin to pound their fists on the table in support of their new Presidente.

Season 5[]

"I Hear the Train A-Comin"[]

Inside of Templo, Hank is explaining that in the six months since EZ became Presidente, he has begun expansion in to SAMDINO territory creating the Orange County, and Inland Empire charters. Unfortunately, Orange County has already been wiped out due to attacks by SAMDINO. Otero, speaks up, claiming that Isaac Packer, the President of SAMDINO pissed on a member of Orange County after beating him senseless. Solis, Sahuarita Presidente speaks up, exclaiming that expanding in to the Sons territory was a poor judgement call, Rooster, Portland charter nods in agreement. EZ brushes the pair off and explains they needed to fight back against the Sons. He directs Inland Empire, which is being run by former Stockton Mayan, Hector and Wolverine. Wolverine insists that Inland Empire can handle the Sons. EZ explains that Santo Padre and Inland Empire are the last Southern Californian charters left.

Angel asks about Northern charters and how they stand on the war, EZ states that Oakland has a treaty with SAMCRO, and other local charters are hoping to contain the war to just the South. Otero says that is SAMCRO really cared about peace, they wouldn't allow the unhinged Isaac to run SAMDINO and go on a rampage. A brief verbal altercation takes place as Hector voices his concern for his Northern brothers if more reinforcements are needed to be sent down South.

Rooster and Solis speak up, exclaiming that Alvarez had wanted to end the war and EZ foolishly had him removed, now everyone is suffering. EZ explains that they are going to get the cartel drug pipeline back, we learn that the warehouse full of heroin was burned down by an arsonist. EZ attempts to reassure the others that he is going to get back in with the cartel. EZ then checks in with Hank to ensure their hit on SAMDINO today is still good to go down.

Santo Padre then do a raid on a Sons weapon transport, they arrive masked and armed and gun down three Sons as they tie up the survivors, blow up their trailer and flee with their truck full of weapons.

The club head to the meeting with Soledad and Miguel, in an attempt at peace after the entire heroin stash was burned by an unknown assailant. Soledad is incredibly unimpressed by EZ's attempt at reconciliation, seeing as her men are already armed to the teeth with the latest military grade weaponry. Soledad leaves and EZ addresses Miguel, who is furious that the club has embarrassed him after he told Soledad to hear them out. EZ demands to know who the cartel's new heroin supplier is but Miguel refuses to tell him.

The club then pay a visit to Louie, an old friend of Coco's and gangbanger. They need intel on who the cartel's heroin supplier is, Louie explains that he has heard rumours of the Broken Saints Motorcycle Club, a club based in the Salton Sea that run heroin. EZ pulls Hank to the side, and asks him to go and see Creeper, who has been locked up for the past six months after Santo Padre caught heat, he confessed to numerous murders to save the club.

Hank visits Creeper in prison and updates him on recent club happenings, including the hit on the Sons from today.

"Lord Help My Poor Soul"[]

In Templo the club learn that Creeper was shivved after Hank left visitation at the prison yesterday, Angel mentions that a lot of the correctional officers in Creeper's prison are members of Iron War. Hank informs them that Creeper is in a bad way.

The club head out to the prison to try and meet with Iron War, they meet their President, McKenzie and Stone, the Vice President. EZ tells the President that they allowed Creeper to get attacked. Hank points out that Stone, was an officer during the visitation yesterday. Stone has large gashes across his face, which EZ remembers is what the Broken Saints President told him that her club did to an Iron War member who tried to collect taxes from them. The situation gets tense as more Iron War members arrive, outnumbering the Mayans. EZ threatens the President again, after the man states that Alvarez was a much better leader for the Mayans.

Hank is meeting with a care home worker. His elderly mother now suffers from dementia and Hank is unable to care for her. He looks through the pricing options offered and struggles to afford even the cheapest option. Hank helps his mother settle in to the home, he is devastated as he leaves her behind, she doesn't want to be there. The care worker insists it's better if Hank leaves and tells him that he can visit tomorrow. Hank leaves with tears in his eyes as his mother begs him not to go.

The club are successful in capturing Stone for information about the cartel's heroin source. EZ beats Stone within an inch of his life and Bishop yells that he is going to kill him, the two begin to fight and are eventually dragged apart by everyone else. EZ stares around the circle of his brothers, looking them all in the eye before walking away. Bishop tells them to dump Stone at the side of the road somewhere.

Bishop, Guero, Hank, Downer and Gilly sit in the clubhouse. The club are discussing the fall of the Inland Empire charter, the Sons paid Hector, their Presidente a visit, threatened his family and killed his Vice Presidente, Wolverine in front of him and his wife and daughter. Guero insists that he trusts EZ to have a plan, but Downer isn't so sure, stating that Santo Padre is the last of Southern California left. Bishop continues to tear in to EZ, stating all he has done since he has become Presidente is paint the clubhouse and ban smoking in Templo; he is just going to get them all killed.

EZ arrives, most likely hearing Bishop's slander. He asks if anyone knows why Angel has called an emergency Templo meeting.

The club head in to Templo. Angel rushes in and announces that Cole, a mercenary the club had dealings with many years ago broke in to his house and threatened his family. He warned them the club has to stop looking in to the heroin pipeline for the cartel. The club put all of the pieces of the puzzle together. The cartel has made the switch to fentanyl, not heroin. They move to Cole, who supplies the cartel with military grade weaponry and he also sells the fentanyl to Iron War, who distribute it throughout the prions to Storm 88, a white supremacist prison gang, ensuring the prisons stay flush with drugs. EZ smiles, believing that all the club needed was to figure out the pipeline in order to take it down. This enrages Angel, who insists that they must stop. EZ refuses. Bishop chimes in, stating that the club is already crumbling, why would they want to wage war on Cole and his crew. EZ tells Bishop he is wrong, they aren't going after Cole, they are going after the cartel.

"Do You Hear the Rain"[]

The club are about to raid a drug manufacturing house. EZ awaits for the signal and upon being given it, he orders Angel to cut the power to the telephone poles. The club file up the stairs, a man exits the house and is immediately blown away by Bishop with a shotgun who was guarding the door. The club sweep through, killing all inhabitants. EZ says that the cook is missing and tells Angel to find him, the rest head outside and keep loading up the van. Angel returns to the truck and tells the club he was unable to find the cook. Moments later, Lobo appears, with the cook, he throws him on the floor and tells the club that he found him hiding under the house. He is thrown in to the back of the truck.

The following day, Bottles rushes in to the clubhouse and turns the music off, Downer yells at him but he says that he has something he needs to show them. He invites Elio, the Mexican drug cook in who produces a package and places it on the table, Bottles says that it is work $100k and the pair can make more with the supplies they bought form Mexico. Everyone is shocked and impressed, EZ agrees.

Later that night, Creeper makes a phone call to Hank, he drops the bomb that he knows there is an informant inside of the club.

"I See the Black Light"[]

EZ, Angel, Bishop and Hank meet with Yong Suen, a member of the Chen Triad, a Chinese criminal organisation that the Mayans did business with many years ago. The man owed Bishop a favour and he has finally cashed it in. The club are attempting to buy chemicals off the triad so that they can continue to produce fentanyl. Yong hands EZ's note to his superior but he is very unimpressed with what the club is offering. Bishop and Yong begin to argue as EZ mentions that they can get the Triad untraceable guns, 12 boxes of AKs. This interests the Dragon much more and a deal is made.

Outside, the four discuss the deal that just happened, Angel isn't sure the club should be giving up guns but EZ argues that without the pipeline, guns don't matter. Hank then informs them that they have a vital matter to discuss, and it should be kept between the four of them. Creeper believes that a member of Santo Padre is working with the feds, and there is a rat inside the club. Bishop says they should tell the rest of the club but EZ refuses, saying they keep it to themselves until they can figure it out.

Back at the bar, a frantic Bottles barges in to the clubhouse and rushes behind the bar to get some rags, EZ stops him on his way out and he quickly announces that Lobo is dying before sprinting back outside. Everyone follows and surrounds Lobo as Sofía, EZ's girlfriend who is already outside desperately attempts CPR, she asks how close the ambulance is, but it seems obvious to everyone except for her that it isn't coming. Sofía pleads with EZ to do something but everyone just watches on as Lobo passes away.

Everyone is shocked as EZ demands to know what happened. Bottles explains that he doesn't know, Lobo must have touched something despite the sign saying it was dangerous. Another fight breaks out as EZ tries to reason with his brothers saying that they're all dead unless they keep cooking fentanyl. Bishop jumps in and says they have to get the lab out of the compound. EZ says nothing and instead gets on his bike and rides away.

Hank visits his mother in the care home. Hank tells her that she needs to get outside more, she just stays inside watching TV all day. Hank eventually convinces her and they walk through the halls of the home. Hank suggests that his mother take up art classes, noting that she clearly doesn't have to be any good to have her work displayed which causes the pair to laugh at the poor artwork hanging on the walls. They walk past the hall and Hank notices the woman leading the exercise group is Nails.

The pair catch up and Nails explains, having left the club behind, she now works as a fitness instructor. Nails explains that she found the club life hard to leave behind but she is much happier now than she has ever been before.

The club later ride out to the Broken Saints farm, EZ has successfully brokered a deal with them, allowing them to store and cook fentanyl on their land for a cut off the profits and their last 3 gun crates. Hank pulls EZ and Bishop aside and says that he has just heard from Otero, Smiley, a Yuma Mayan has been killed, the three piece together that SAMDINO are attempting to circle Santo Padre by wiping out other charters around them.

"I Want Nothing but Death"[]

It's midnight. Nestor drives a car with Hank, Angel and Bishop. Hank loads a shotgun in the front seat and then passes it to Angel who is sat behind him. The group ride up to a group of SAMDINO members and Angel sticks the shotgun out the window and shoots, immediately killing the Son. Nestor then speeds off and the group disappear in to the night.

In Templo, Bishop retells the story about how they did a hit on some SAMDINO members the previous night, and how Angel ruthlessly gunned down one of them in the street, everyone at the table is loving the story, except Angel, who remains silent.

EZ enters Templo and sits down, he is carrying a large bag with him. Angel states that he wants to bring something to the table, he voices his displeasure for continuing the fentanyl trade. He demands that the club stop it and get out of business with the cartel. After a few moments of silence, EZ states that Alvarez dictating and that he doesn't want to lead like that. He opens his bag and dumps out stack of cash, he begins to divide it up between the others at the table, he sarcastically remarks to Angel how terrible the fentanyl is before telling everyone else at the table that they can decide if they want to continue the trade or not. It is quite clear, everyone is more than happy to continue, if it means money like this.

Hank changes subject to the Grim Bastards offer, earlier that day, members of the Grim Bastards South Gate charter arrived at the clubhouse. Their President, Lucky, proposed a peace meeting between the Sons and the Mayans, citing that their war was bad for everyone involved. EZ lays out all the options, explaining that peace could be reached, or they could all end up dead. He asks Bishop, who has had run ins with Lucky before. Bishop explains that Lucky is well respected, and everyone knows it; Hank backs up this claim, stating that the club should trust him. Everyone is in agreement, and EZ says that tonight they ride to L.A. to meet the Sons.

Hank stays back in Templo, he thanks EZ graciously for the money as EZ asks about Hank's mother. Hank affirms that the money will help them a lot. EZ then asks about Creeper, Hank explains that Creeper has said he is close to finding out who the rat is.

The Mayans head out to meet the Bastards and the Sons for peace talks. The Bastards are running security and take everyone's guns away as they enter the warehouse. EZ speaks briefly with Lucky, who reminds him no violence and to make sure things go smooth.

The club head inside to find Isaac, the SAMDINO President and the man responsible for so many deaths of their brothers. He is seated in a chair with an army of Sons behind him. The two clubs square off as Isaac introduces himself to EZ, he rants for a short while before Lucky cuts in as Isaac starts to insult him. He thanks everyone for attending the talks and assures that no violence will be had. EZ quickly states his terms, the Sons will surrender, the Mayans will continue to wear the California rocker, and SAMDINO will be shut down.

Isaac interrupts to ask where Coco is, Bishop states that he was killed in the Oakland clubhouse raid about six months ago. Isaac turns to speak to his Vice President, who is standing behind him. He asks him if he was responsible for killing Coco, he is met with silence. Isaac addresses EZ again, explaining that he didn't know his club had killed Coco. EZ repeats the terms he laid out earlier, as Isaac laments that it's all for nothing if Coco isn't here anymore. EZ repeats himself again as Isaac stands up and throws his chair, stating that EZ is boring him. He steps forward to EZ and points out a scar on his neck, pointing out that Coco gave it to him and now he isn't able to return the favour. EZ repeats himself again, as Isaac asks EZ, "What am I crashing towards?" Otero speaks up, telling Isaac that he is a psycho and the two clubs approach each other as tensions begin to rise, the Bastards jump in and separate them again as Lucky fires a round in to the air, demanding everyone stand down and reminding them of the agreement.

Isaac stares EZ in the eyes as he tells him he takes back his agreement, and he isn't leaving until somebody dies. He continues, stating that he wants to remember Coco properly before asking who wants to fight. Gilly tries to step forward, "I got this", he states as Otero holds him back and he steps forward instead, "For Manny. What's up?". Manny had been burned alive by Isaac a few days after Coco's death. Isaac chuckles as he tells Otero that he didn't really think that he was going to fight. Otero calls Isaac a "fucking pussy" as he pushes him back behind him with the rest of the club. Isaac says that he and EZ are going to appoint someone to fight until only one is still standing.

Isaac heads back to his club and picks out the biggest man he can find, a humungous man named Travis. Lucky speaks up again, telling everyone to leave as there will be no violence, he is ignored however. EZ turns to his club and reminds them that he said he will bleed for them, before removing his kutte and passing it to Angel who tries to stop EZ from fighting.

EZ steps forward and strikes Travis across the face, Travis is unmoved and just laughs. "Fuck", EZ exhales as Travis effortlessly picks him up and body slams him. The room is filled with roars from both clubs as their champion fights on. EZ quickly recovers and the two men continue to exchange blows, EZ is knocked to the floor again and begins to spit out blood as Travis kicks him when he's down before mounting him and beginning to punch him across the face, over and over. EZ jams his finger in to Travis' eye, allowing him to cripple the giant and instead mount him, he begins to land blow after blow on the badly wounded Travis before he begins to smash his head repeatedly in to the concrete floor until Travis is dead.

A breathless EZ struggles to his feet before spitting on Travis' body, lamenting to Isaac, "There's your blood, motherfucker". He repeats his terms again. Isaac states "It is you..." continuing his previous statement from earlier when he asked "What am I crashing towards?". The Sons are silent as they slowly filter out of the warehouse.

The club return to the Santo Padre clubhouse to celebrate their small victory. EZ eventually staggers in to the clubhouse. Otero speaks up and announces "Now this is a fucking Mayan!". The club begin to pound their fists on the tales as they chant EZ's name.

Gretton stands and asks who Ezekiel is, EZ steps forward. He tells them that all California prisons are theirs. Iron War and Storm 88 now listen to them. EZ asks what the stake is and Gretton tells them it's half. EZ counters with a quarter, and then a third. Gretton informs him its's not a discussion. Gretton tells him that at any point he can leave and EZ snaps back and asks if he will break his arm too. Gretton states that was just business and it will only happen if he disappoints him.

Hank tails Nestor and Jess, a hangaround girl as they drive to Santa Madre. He parks nearby and listens as he hears a gunshot ring out. Hank walks over and opens the passenger door, Jess' corpse tumbles to the floor as Nestor steps out to speak to Hank. "Fuck that cunt, she was a rat", Nestor spits as Hank begins to douse the car in gasoline.

The club are heading in to Templo, Hank receives a call from Creeper and says he will be in soon. He answers the call and awaits to get through the automated voice on the other end, before the line goes dead. Hank thinks for a moment before heading in to Templo.

Gilly asks why nobody else was told there was a rat in the club as Hank explains they had to be sure it was Jess. He goes on to explain that Nestor has taken care of Jess and he did a good job. EZ then speaks up and announces that he has taken Gretton's deal. Everybody is concerned with EZ's decision and furious that he didn't put it to a vote first. EZ explains that they are so close and this is the final thing they needed to win the war. The deal is going to end the war with the Sons and make sure that all bloodshed is from their enemies. The table silently nod in approval.

The club are celebrating the new partnership with Gretton, drinks are flowing and a good time is being had. Suddenly the clubhouse doors flies open and Diaz enters with his Vice Presidente, Jinx in tow. "What the fuck did you motherfuckers do?!" he screams as the room falls silent. EZ approaches him and he begins to yell at him, screaming that they had a deal. EZ tells him that he had a deal, with Mayan enemies. Hank steps between the pair as Diaz becomes aggressive and asks what is going on. Diaz remarks that EZ hasn't told the club anything as he announces that EZ killed a member of SAMCRO. The room is stunned in to silence as EZ ushers Diaz and Jinx in to Templo. EZ passes by a drunk Bishop and invites him to join, but he refuses.

The four exit Templo and EZ invites Oakland to stay for a drink, Diaz refuses, stating he needs to see Alvarez. EZ and Diaz hug as Diaz notes, "We'll see about that future". Diaz turns to leave when Guero runs up on him and shoots him in the back of the head. "That's for my father, motherfucker!" He cries out with tears in his eyes. Jinx is paralysed with shock as Bishop stands up, "Goddamn it." He too draws his pistol and shoots Jinx in the back of the head.

"Her Blacks Crackle and Drag"[]

EZ and Hank discuss EZ's plan. Hank tells him it was a good call and they now have all the players, including Iron War and the Bastards. Hank is referencing EZ's plan to have Diaz and Jinx dropped off outside the Bastards clubhouse, making it look like a threat directly from the Sons. EZ says that what happened to Creeper can't happen to anyone else. Hank states that Creeper went out a Mayan.

The club carry Creeper's casket to the clubhouse. Inside the clubhouse, the club listen to a eulogy by Yvette, Creeper's half-sister. Yvette says that when they were younger, their home life was very rough due to their mother's drug addiction, but Creeper always made sure that his siblings were fed, and had clothes. Yvette proclaims that she is so grateful for the Mayans, as Creeper finally found his home. She addresses them all by name, including Taza, who is lurking at the back of the crowd, much to everyone's surprise.

EZ then addresses the crowd. He says "I killed my brother. I killed Creeper. It was on my watch. And I'll never forgive myself for that." A young woman emerges from the crowd, Santo Padre recognise her as Creeper's girlfriend, she approaches Creeper's casket and places her hands on him, before quickly leaving the clubhouse.

The club toast to Creeper's life, raising water bottles in his honour, dying as he lived, a sober man. Santo Padre carry the casket as Creeper is loaded in to the back of a hearse.

"Slow to Bleed Fair Son"[]

The club attend the funeral for Felipe Reyes, EZ and Angel's father who was murdered a few days ago in a home invasion. The club don't know who was responsible.

The club head back to the clubhouse. Terry Drakos, the Vice President of SAMDINO arrives. Santo Padre drag him in to the clubhouse and hold him at gunpoint, he states that he wants to speak to EZ, he is doing to want to hear what he has to say. EZ soon arrives and he demands to know what Terry wants. Terry tells him that if he tells him what happened to Jess, then he will tell them what happened to Felipe.

The club prepares to wage a final war on SAMDINO. Hank tells EZ that Taza has spoken to Bishop, he wants to re-join Santo Padre. Hank says he would like to take it to the table and it would mean a lot to him, personally. EZ is uninterested, saying that Taza wanted out and that is final. Hank changes the subject, saying that Cole didn't receive his drug drop last night, due to the cookhouse being destroyed. EZ says he will speak to Gretton and handle it.

EZ steps outside, an army of Mayans, Grim Bastards and Iron War are awaiting him. Today is the day they finally finish SAMDINO. EZ gives a rousing speech to the men outside before they head out to San Bernardino to finish them off for good.

The clubs arrive at San Bernardino and at a concert where SAMDINO, among other Sons charters are. They breach the building and a bloody beatdown ensues, numerous Sons are either killed or forced to quit the club.

Back at the clubhouse, the celebration wages on. The clubs burn Sons of Anarchy kuttes and celebrate their victory. EZ was also successful in killing Isaac, the SAMDINO President.

Hank, Downer and Gilly discuss Cielo, one of the girls who works the bar at the clubhouse. She has been asking a lot of questions about Jess recently and hasn't been showing up for work since Diaz and Jinx were killed in the clubhouse. Gilly and Hank task Downer with dealing with Jess, he is initially resistant but gives in.

Offscreen, a frantic Bishop calls an emergency Templo. Santo Padre listen intently as Bishop explains that he has just learned from Creeper's girlfriend that EZ has been a DEA informant all along. He was gathering intel for them when he first began prospecting for the club. Nestor is invited in by Hank, proposing that they patch him in tonight, he is in deep with the club and has always been a valuable brother, putting the club above all else. Bottles is also invited in, they want him to deal with Sofía as she will figure out what happened to EZ and probably knows club secrets. His full patch may even be waiting for him on the other side. Bishop also explains that Angel most likely knew, he is just as guilty as EZ. They set their plan for Templo that night, to rid Santo Padre of the rat for good.

Inside of Templo, everyone is present except for Downer. He had been sent out by Gilly and Hank to take care of Cielo, after she stopped showing up for work after witnessing the murders of Diaz and Jinx. The club are worried she will rat and want her dealt with. Guero says that Downer is probably just hungover, he has been calling him all day, however. EZ begins the Templo. He thanks Santo Padre for all their sacrifice, for sticking by him through their journey and the war with SAMDINO. EZ says that he is indebted to their loyalty and brotherhood forever.

He passes the table over to Angel. Angel says that the club has been the best experience of his life, he finds it hard to get the words out as he says he doesn't want his son to lose him and that he must leave the club for his sake. EZ says they would like to bring it to the table but Hank interrupts, asking if he may bring something to the table first.

EZ and Angel agree and Hank proposes that Nestor be patched in. He dealt with the Jess problem, and is a loyal brother to the club and will always put the patch first. The club vote Nestor Oceteva in to the club, everyone agrees that he would be a solid addition to the charter. EZ bangs the gavel as Guero heads outside to bring Nestor in. Nestor enters and neatly places his kutte on the table as requested, Hank approaches him from behind and lays down the flashes and rockers. The club pound their fists on the table for Nestor as they all rise to hug him.

EZ goes to walk back to the chair as Gilly suddenly grabs him from behind, Angel is also restrained as Bishop takes out his pistol and places it to EZ's head. "You're a fucking rat!" he spits at EZ, telling him he knows all about his DEA deal, how he had Creeper killed after he gave up everything for him and the club. He turns the gun on Angel, saying that he conspired with him. EZ frantically explains that Angel didn't know when he bought him in to the club and begs Bishop not to kill him.

Hank retrieves EZ's knife from his belt and thrusts it in to Angel's hand, "fucking prove it". Bishop tells Angel he has one chance to prove that he is loyal to the club over blood and get out of the room alive, he has to kill his brother.

Reality sinks in as EZ knows his time has come, there isn't a chance they both get out of the room alive. He tells Angel that his son is waiting for him outside and it is his only chance to be with him. EZ assures Angel that it is fine as Angel is thrust towards him. EZ begins to sob as he tells Angel to tell Maverick all about his uncle, and his mother. "Go, and don't come back, I'll miss ya'", EZ grins to Angel as tears stream down his face. "Okay, I'm ready" he announces to the club as Angel grips EZ's shoulder before driving the blade in to his stomach. The brothers affirm their love for each other as Nestor drags Angel back. Hank steps forward and stabs EZ again. Bishop steps up, "You ain't the only one that reads Shakespeare, motherfucker" before driving the blade as deep in to EZ's stomach as he can, causing him to drop to the floor as Gilly releases him. A steady pool of blood begins to pour on to the Templo floor as Gilly, Guero and Nestor also stab EZ. Nestor's stab proves to be fatal, hitting EZ's heart. A devastated Angel cradles his head as EZ drifts away.

Santo Padre sits silently in Templo. They are now joined by Bottles, who has just finished tying up another loose end, Sofía, and has also been patched in. "Now... back to business" Bishop sneers as he runs his hands along the Presidente's chair before lighting up cigarette. A commotion is heard outside as heavily armed ATF agents storm the clubhouse and burst in to Templo. A barrage of gunshots echoes throughout the compound as Santo Padre are finally wiped out.
