Mayans MC

That’s what I said...

 

Like I actually read other posts.

Great minds....

 

So now we know how Chuckie ended up with the Mayans. They won won him in a card game.

We also got a tease of Lincoln Potter, one of the antagonist from Sons Of Anarchy.

 

I thought Potter got offed by Jax? Wasn't he a dope fiend too? Sweet set up for Galindo. You know, for the head of a cartel these idiots sure like to do everything by themselves instead of having the help do it.

 

You got him confused with the retired US Marshall. Potter ended his run when he walked into the elections with a bag full of sex toys.

 

Nah I got the right guy, just figured he got offed because everyone else did lol

 

Easy enough because the body count for 7 seasons was crazy.

 

That was a funny ending when he dumped the bag.

 

He alway's plays a dude that is a little out there. He was fantastic on "Deadwood"

 

I thought Potter was season 4?


Lincoln Potter

Lincoln James Potter, aka Nick Stackhouse and Gabe Marcel, is the Assistant U.S. Attorney investigating the Sons of AnarchyMotorcycle Club on the FX original series Sons of Anarchy. Played by American actor Ray McKinnon, Lincoln makes his debut on the episode "Out" in the series' fourthseason. He is ruthless and determined, and willing to cross legal boundaries to get a job done. Playing a recurring role through the same season, he can be viewed as the main antagonist of the season, although he performs acts that are beneficial to both the Sons and Charming. He was last seen in the Season 4 episode "To Be, Act 2".

Lincoln appears again on the FX original series Mayans MC, a spinoff of the FX original series Sons of Anarchy. He makes his debut on the episode "Gato/Mis" in the series' first season.

Personality and Appearance
Lincoln was an extremely calculating and strategic individual, hiding his cunning behind a mask of eccentricity. Despite his oddness, he had an outgoing, friendly, and calming demeanor. While conducting business with criminals, he'd put on an emotionless and passive attitude, never allowing himself to seem visibly frustrated even when his best laid plans were ruined by the CIA. Almost always being caught up in his own thoughts of making plans, he would often do strange things that seemed to help him brainstorm such as drinking chocolate milk, hum songs to himself, and smoke cigarettes, even smoking one while reclined upside down in a chair as he contemplated his strategy. He was also very organized, creating a war room with very detailed plans taped all over its walls that included pictures of his targets, countless sticky notes, and timelines.

His appearance was incredibly unique for an Assistant US Attorney, sporting long hair and a beard and almost always wearing his brown leather jacket, making him look very reminiscent of a man from the 70's as well as ironically, a biker, which he was, having owned a motorcycle of his own.

Biography
Background
Sons of Anarchy Season 4
Shortly before the group of Sons were released from prison, Potter arrived in Charming with a task force consisting of FBI agents Lane and Kessler, ICE agent Vance, and ATF agents Grad Nicholas and Woodrow, setting their sights on bringing down the entirety of the Sons of Anarchy, RIRA, and the ROC in one swift move. Potter rented space on the third floor at the Sheriff's Department, putting together his "war room" which contained all of their collected information on the gun running connection, including pictures of all members and associates involved with the illegal operations. On the day of Clay Morrow and the other captive SOA members' release, Potter saw them arrive in Charming after buying a pack of cigarettes, driving past them on his own bike and giving them a nod as he passed after they had been blockaded by Sheriff Roosevelt. Later, he visited the sheriff, informing him of who he was and that he was interested in working with him. He brought Roosevelt to the war room and laid out their plans, recruiting him into their top secret task force. Potter explained that they'd be able to attack soon due to a planted mole in the ROC but after the Sons killed the Russians in retaliation for bad blood between them, Potter had to put this plan on hold, deciding to tread water after realizing that there was a whole other player involved with all of this; the Galindo Cartel.

Completelly unrelated to his case was that he met with Gemma on Roosevelt's wife flower shop under a fake name, and revealed to her that Jacob Hale's Charming Heights development project was in danger of being relinquished to the county if he could not find more investors within a certain amount of time. The bad publicity of Russian bodies dumped on one of his construction sites left him with a huge financial loss. He hinted that he wanted the Sons to destroy Hale's plan. Also in this scene is a very cryptic line from Gemma as Potter is lighting her cigarette, "Do I know you?"

He then checked on the members of SAMCRO and found a potential use for Juice, who had concealed his African-American father from the club, since the MC doesn't allow blacks in the club. Potter used this information to blackmail Juice through Roosevelt, turning Juice into a rat. Roosevelt would take Juice to talk with him on the pretense that it was to check him on his weed shop. Potter would force Juice into securing some proof of the club's involvement with the cartel, and Juice stole a brick of cocaine (that later got Miles killed and framed for the theft). Roosevelt confronted Potter in that Juice would be killed if he was discovered, but he did not care as Juice would nonetheless act on their favor with both the fear of being kicked out or killed. This plan did not work and Juice feeling guilty would attempt suicide, which prompted Roosevelt to tell Potter that Juice could no longer be used as he was serious.

Potter would also play another underhanded tactic with Otto, by giving him accurate information on Luann's autopsy that revealed that Bobby had sex with her prior to her death. Potter tried to convince Otto into betraying the club, using the autopsy information to make Otto believe Bobby killed Luann. Potter was well aware of the meeting he had with Bobby in which Bobby apologized and promised Otto that they had killed Georgie Caruso, Luann's potential murdered and had it recorded. Then he investigated and revealed to Otto the photos that proved Caruso was still alive which was enough for Otto to side with Potter after feeling betrayed. Potter decided to show himself and his war room to Juice and all the intel that they had on SAMCRO and the RIRA that could be used on a RICO case that could potentially arrest the whole every charter of the Sons of Anarchy, and thus forced Juice to cooperate with them regarding the meeting with the Irish Kings and Galindo Cartel members, and giving them information, assuring him that if he worked his role fine, he would exclude the Sons of Anarchy from the RICO act, and with little choice Juice accepted. Upon seeing the great lengths that Potter was willing to go and the underhanded tactics he employed, he slowly began to grow disgusted at Potter and distance himself from him. Potter had all he needed on his hands as Otto had signed all the papers that confirmed his participation and that of Bobby's on criminal activities, and by default, the club's. Prior to agreeing, Otto has Potter agree with 3 conditions: that Lenny "The Pimp" is allowed visitations; that his own execution date is carried before schedule; and that he is given a face to face meeting with Bobby. Potter agrees to all of them and eventually allows the two to meet, and is a witness when Otto confesses he ratted on the club and when Bobby is taken into custody.

Eventually the day of the meeting came, and Potter was ready with a large team of Law Enforcement on a camp nearby ready to act and arrest SAMCRO, the Irish Kings and the Galindo Cartel members, all while giving them an encouraging speech to his men (at this chance he mentioned bringing "three criminal organizations to justice" which hints that he never had any real intention to let the Sons of Anarchy survive). His plans are foiled however by the appearance of none other than the Galindo Cartel members Romero Parada and Luis Torres, who reveal to Potter that they are undercover CIA agents and that the government is backing up the Galindo Cartel in hopes of bringing the others down for political motives. With a legal order, the two men force Potter to cease on his RICO plan and to surrender all information from his case to them. Distraught, he meets with Roosevelt and are both surprised and displeased with the results claiming that "the bad guys won today". He proceeded to give Roosevelt all the files on Juice, as he knows Roosevelt would want to free Juice personally of the racial blackmail. He confessed to Roosevelt that he does not like people too much and that he has great respect for him. The two parted ways with a handshake.

He appeared for a last time in the voting for Charming Heights as Hale had secured the investment of the Natsuki Family, Georgie's investors for his sex business. He then reveals to the court the true colors of the Natsuki Family, which Hale had hidden on purpose as a "Tokyo Fund" with all the information that showed they were the largest manufacturer of sex toys and pornography in the world, and also being involved in pedophilia. A very displeased Jacob Hale goes to Potter and asks him why he did that. Potter replied that he "does not like" Hale, and then departed while saying to himself that "the good guys needed a win" (following his failure on his RICO case). The vote for Charming Heights was then put on hold.

Mayans MC Season 1
"Gato/Mis"
EZ tells Chuckie that he would lock up for him, and as he is leaving, he sees Lincoln sitting on a bike outside the complex. Lincoln calls attention to EZ, saying that it is a nice night for a walk. After EZ leaves, Lincoln picks up a stray cat who hangs out at the complex. He implies that the cat has seen all sorts of criminal activity performed inside the complex, and that he would like to see for himself. ("Gato/Mis")

 

@Chipskip, I was talking about the body count total for all 7 seasons sorry if I caused any confusion. Great history post.

 

Like McDonald's, Bah dah pah dah pah, I'm loving it!

 

Me to Man I was glad to see the little Girl was the one who pushed the little rat off the building.

 

DAMN.... 53 killed in season 7.

That is only 37 less than all the other seasons combined.

Only 4 in season 2... WTF?

 

Yea in season 7 Jax had to clean up some things including putting Gemma out of Her misery. So the body count was off the chain.

 

So far the Mayans have been low on the body count. I like the direction that it is going. And I am liking the Bikes with the ape hangers too. Ape hangers not ideal for a long trip but pretty cool for the local running around and I am liking the different color Bikes too. SOA had all black bikes

 

Anybody else notice that the Nurse from the Hospital and the Guard at the border were the same person? Wonder who She is working for.

 

No, but I thought the guy Adelita gave the money to at the swap meet, was the customs agent that stopped Galindo at the boarder crossing. But I have to rewatch the episode.

 

@BLKTRUCK I think you may be right on that one. I am starting to think that a bunch of people are working for EZ Father. And EZ Brother has an angle in all this that we have not seen yet.

 

I think El Padrino is in on the Aledita/Angel deal. I don’t know if Bishop knows.
