While Katey Sagal won't reveal what's ahead for the last few episodes of FX's Sons of Anarchy, she is very quick to defend her character Gemma and promises a good final arc for the motorcycle drama.

Sagal spoke with TVLine recently where she discussed Gemma murdering Tara (Maggie Siff) and her remorse over that in addition to offering a few teasers for what's to come.

Asked if she agrees with her character saying that she's not necessarily a psychopath, she brought up a sound rationale for why she did what she did to Tara.

"She is not a psychopath," Sagal agreed. "Do I think that, given different circumstances, she would have killed her daughter-in-law? No. What happened was a perfect storm. She really did believe that her son and the club and her entire way of life was being brought down by this woman, and she really did believe that Nero [Jimmy Smits] was leaving her, and she really did believe that this was the end of life as we know it. And she was also getting super loaded that night. She didn't premeditatively kill Tara. She didn't even know Tara was going to come to the house. It was literally a blind rage."

She noted that Gemma feels remorse for killing Tara, despite ultimately rationalizing the murder in her own head.

"She feels very sorry and sad that that happened. But at the same time, she has rationalized to herself why it's good to throw somebody else under the bus and not tell the truth," Sagal explained.

Sagal also previewed that there are only seven episodes left of the series, and, essentially, "that's how quickly [things] unravel" for Gemma.

Asked about the highly anticipated final showdown between Gemma and Jax (Charlie Hunnam), Sagal said that she does know "a lot of answers to that, and I'm not going to tell you. [Laughs] Except that it will not disappoint. Keep watching."

Sons of Anarchy airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX.
