Robert "Bobby" Munson was one of the most loved characters in the FX series Sons of Anarchy. He was the Secretary, Treasurer, and former Vice President of the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original (SAMCRO). Unlike his high-tempered colleagues, Bobby was always calm.
Despite not having an athletic body like the rest of the SAMCRO members, Bobby was a good fighter too. He was also a big fan of music, with Elvis Presley being his favorite singer of all time. Here are times when bad things happened to Bobby and the times when he was the doer of evil.
Felt Bad: Agent June Stahl Harassing Him
In the first season, Bobby was arrested and charged with the murder of Brenan Hefner. Apparently, a young lady had witnessed the killing and reported it to the police. While behind bars, the relentless Agent June Stahl constantly harassed Bobby in order to get him to turn on the club.
She even told him how she was setting up Opie to look like the rat and made sure to let him know that bad things were coming to him too. Bobby appeared to be in a dilemma. For a moment, it seemed like he was going to turn into an informant too. Luckily, Jax threatened the witness into leaving California.
Hated: Sleeping With Otto's Old Lady
In the second season, Bobby was appointed the bookkeeper of the Cara Cara. He soon found out that the owner Luann Delaney—who was also Otto's baby mama—was defrauding the club. Worried, she asked him what would happen to her and he said it was up to the club members to decide.
Luann then asked Bobby if he had seen any of her pornographic videos. Before he could respond, she was already offering to get intimate with him. Despite Bobby knowing that she was the wife of a club member who was in jail, he didn't say no. He got intimate with her and helped her cook the books. He even suggested that he enjoyed their intimate time together later on while he was talking to Clay.
Felt Bad: Encounter With Ex-Wife
Bobby finally got to see his ex-wife Precious in Season 3's second episode titled "Oiled." He reached out to her in order to convince her to talk to her bounty-hunter boyfriend. The club needed his skills in order to find Abel.
However, Precious wasn't so happy to see Bobby. Despite the fact that they had two kids, she was too hostile, claiming that Bobby never sends enough money. Bobby really felt the weight of his broken family at that moment. It wasn't until Jax convinced her to help that she did.
Hated: Hijacking Unser's Truck
Charming Police Chief Wayne Unser was a good friend of the club. In the first season, he owned a trucking company known as Unser Shipping. At one point, he hired the Sons to protect a shipment that heading to Mexico. but Bobby and two other club members hijacked it instead.
Since he was planning on retiring, they hijacked the truck to blackmail him to stay in the job longer so as to protect their interests. Unser's deputy David Hale wasn't too friendly towards the club hence they were afraid. But messing with Unser's business was a low move, considering how much he had helped them.
Felt Bad: "Sad Elvis" Moment
Clay showed up at the clubhouse early on in the second season and found Bobby drinking and smoking. He was wearing his Elvis costume but he appeared to be very sad. Clay then exclaimed "Sad Elvis!" He wondered why Bobby was unhappy yet he was doing what he loved.
Bobby then opened up, telling him that he had a lot going on in his life. He had child support payments to make and nothing also seemed to be going right for him. Sadly, Clay didn't exactly do a good job of reassuring him that everything was going to be okay.
Hated: Trying To Sleep With Cherry
Half-Sack really loved the Crow Eater named Cherry. However, Clay had a problem with this. Not only did he sleep with Cherry but he also tried to make Bobby sleep with her too. When the club entered Half-Sack into a bare-knuckle fighting competition so that he could win money to buy weapons, they banned him from getting anywhere near women.
Clay thus ordered Bobby to try and sleep with Cherry just to piss Half-Sack off, even though he claimed that this was meant to test Cherry's loyalty. Instead of refusing, Bobby went ahead and tried to sleep with her. Luckily, she declined his advances and insisted that she couldn't just be passed around.
Felt Bad: Otto Ratting Him Out
In a way, Bobby deserved this after he slept with Otto's wife. However, he had visited Otto in prison earlier and tried to make things right. Otto should have at least forgave him but he didn't.
When Lincoln Potter was trying to build a RICO case against SAMCRO, he tried to get Otto to be an informant. Otto agreed when a couple of his demands were met. He specifically decided to rat out Bobby, leading to his incarceration.
Hated: Sparing Clay
Clay had committed several crimes against the club and when Jax finally exposed Clay for having a hand in killing JT and Piney, it was literally the nail in the coffin. Clay was definitely going to meet "Mr. Mayhem." However, despite everyone knowing about Clay's atrocities, Bobby still tried to save him.
He went to Clay's house and asked him to confess to being involved in the Nomad attacks and in exchange for that, he would vote against killing him. During the vote, he was in favor of kicking Clay out but voted against killing him. This move deeply upset Jax as well as the viewers.
Felt Bad: Getting Tortured And Killed By August Marks
In the Season 7 episode titled "Greensleeves", Bobby was caught by August Marks' crew after SAMCRO tried to blackmail him in regards to Pastor Johnathan Haddem's murder. They gouged out his eye with a spoon and sent it to Jax. Despite the torture, Bobby refused to talk.
They cut off his fingers too and in the episode titled "What A Piece of Work is Man" an exchange was agreed. The Sons would trade all evidence linking August to the murder in exchange for Bobby. Sadly, August pulled out a gun and shot Bobby in the head.
Hated: Stealing The Elvis Gig
Bobby really enjoyed doing Elvis Presley impersonations in Lake Tahoe. The club even began referring to him as "Bobby Elvis." On one occasion, Bobby was informed by the performance club owner that there had been a double booking. There was an Asian Elvis impersonator that a couple of Korean tourists wanted to see,
Instead of letting another man earn his bread too, Bobby organized with Half-Sack to get rid of the other impersonator. Half-Sack thus went to the Asian's dressing room and assaulted him to the point where he was incapacitated. Bobby was thus left with no competition for the gig.
