Do you think Eli is going along with Lincoln (Ray McKinnon) now because he has no choice, or do you think he believes it鈥檚 the right thing to do, to take on the club?
ROCKMOND DUNBAR: We just wrapped the full season, so I know where it鈥檚 going and where it ends, and I can鈥檛 tell you, unfortunately, but it鈥檚 going to be a really interesting twist. Everyone thinks that they know exactly what鈥檚 going on, but (show creator) Kurt [Sutter] is so genius with his writing and storytelling that you鈥檒l never be able to figure it out. When we read through the scripts for the next episode, it鈥檚 always surprising. We have a great, talented group of writers. It鈥檚 going to be interesting.
What is going on in Eli鈥檚 mind now, based on the recent events?
DUNBAR: I think it鈥檚 going to be very clear, towards the end of the season. Those thoughts will actually be verbalized and played into action. But, to give you where he is right now, he doesn鈥檛 like to be manipulated, or bend to do things that are unnecessary. He does like to be fair, but at the same time, his life of criminal activity is really harsh. So, what鈥檚 going on in his mind right now is that he鈥檚 being manipulated and he doesn鈥檛 like it, and he鈥檚 trying to figure out how to get out of this situation while also policing his town. It鈥檚 very, very difficult, when you are under the stronghold of another government official, and can be put in the position where you might not be able to do the things that you love, so he鈥檚 trying to figure that out. He鈥檚 very, very conflicted.
