Maddox had known that the ATF would find out little to nothing from the women of both sides. While he didn’t know Tori, Izzy or Ramina particularly well, he figured if they were like the Thane women and like Sutton, everyone would survive another night. The Clubhouse and the Shop were fucked to Hell and Maddox spent most of the time trying to clean shit up with the other members and prospects. If anything, it’d been a good distraction away from thinking about the women that were locked up. The Primordials and the town of Olympus had a lot riding on this shit. Following everyone’s reunions, Maddox kept trying to get shit in order, sweeping up the Clubhouse floors. Looking up, he saw Layla from across the room and he gave her a simple nod. “Jail treat you okay? Sut told me it was gross as Hell in there,” he shrugged with a small grin. 

The fact that Jeremiah has decided he needs two Old Lady’s has been somewhat of a hot take for the Thane family. Rowan remembers Rhea looking like she was practically going to have a heart attack when they found out, and a similar look crossing her features every time Ramina made a bid on her middle son. Rowan’s significantly less scandalized by the whole thing, though her mother in law has always been dramatic so that shouldn’t come as a surprise. It isn’t something she understands ---- she thinks the entire thing is a completely new shade of bizarre, even for their family --- and she and Andy spent a lengthy smoke break after the first family dinner with their newest addition exchanging ‘what the fuck’ comments before she finally just shrugged and told him not to get any ideas. It’s not something that makes sense to her, but she’s not about to start condemning them for it either -- she’ll just stick to making the odd comment in her head, or in shared private moments with her husband. Besides, she likes Layla well enough -- they’re family, after all. “Kinda dramatic, don’t you think?” she teases just a little bit, leaning her elbow against their table and quirking a brow at her in law. “Getting into a bidding war with the person you’re just gonna go all in with at the end of the night?”
