I think they did that to show that even though Nero isn't supposed to have anything to do with Gemma, Gemma is still trying to reach out to Nero. Plus to show that Nero still has Gemma's back (after beating the shit out of the dude later on). Also to kind of put Jax in check about how hard he's been on Gemma.
It was a little out of the way, but I think they were really trying to show how out of control Gemma has been and how hard Jax has been on her. Add in the Nero stuff and they were able to tie all three things together with that one storyline. Not to mention, they could always bring the chop shop back into the show somehow in the future.
I enjoyed the episode. There are a ton of problems, but I can't really recall a season where that has't been the case. It's almost always one after the other. I definitely knew something bad was going to happen with Gemma and the kids. Wasn't sure if she would be the cause or if it would be an outsider. I am slightly annoyed that they didn't even mention it in the scenes for next week. Should be an interesting episode.
