In the episode "The Push", Jax asks Tara for help moving black market meds and she agrees .

There are subtle hints that Jax and Trinity may be attracted to each other . Jax later meets with father Kellan Ashby .

He takes it well, even joking that in two more minutes he would have been in Tig's territory . After talking to his mother, he meets with Father Ashby to find out where Abel is .
