Opie ultimately sacrificed himself for the club, and for Jax, not wanting his best friend to die. He later killed her in the same way Tig killed Donna. However, he revealed his gun was empty, telling her to remember that 'the outlaw had mercy', causing her to break down after he left. Opie, though seemingly gentle, has a vicious streak, as he savagely beat Tig when he confessed to being responsible for Donna's murder and went on to threaten Agent Stahl for it, making her believe he was going to kill her. He eventually chose to stay in the club and, after the death of his wife, he completely alienated his children, out of grief. Even after spending five years in jail for the club, he was willing to do anything to help the Sons.Īfter his release from prison, Opie was torn between leaving the club and becoming a family man or staying with SAMCRO and risking his life and freedom once again. Opie's most powerful trait was his unbreakable loyalty towards SAMCRO and his best friend, Jax. He is seen once more, as a corpse, in the series' subsequent episode, 'Stolen Huffy', in the same season. Playing a recurring role through the series' first, second, third, fourth, and fifth seasons, Opie was killed in San Joaquin County Correctional Facility.Īfter a brutal beating and fatal blow to the back of the head, he met his demise in the Season 5 episode 'Laying Pipe'. Like Jax, the club was in his blood it's the only life and family he had ever known. He fathered 2 children with his deceased wife, Donna Winston, and later marries Lyla Winston, a pornstar employed by LuAnn Delaney, the owner of Cara Cara and wife of Otto Delaney. He was best friends with the club's former President, Jackson Teller, and just finished a 5-year prison sentence in the Chino State Penitentiary. His father, Piney, was also a member of the club and one of the First 9. Played by American actor Ryan Hurst, Opie makes his debut in the series' premiere episode, 'Pilot', in the series' first season. Harry 'Opie' Winston was a member of the Sons of Anarchy MC on the FX original series Sons of Anarchy.
