Mystified by Omar's disappearance, will Marlo and Chris locate their nemesis before he finds them?

time out...Fruit was never part of Barksdale's crew...Fruit was Marlo's crew...Slim and Cutty went to take him out before Cutty froze up...

Hey, does anybody know what hip hop joint was playing when Omar ambushed Marlo's people in the street, and blew up the Expedition?

"Its pronounced "DY KEN SEE N" and it refers to the aspect that the paper chooses to cover a particular story in this episode of the Wire."
You miss much. The title of any of the episodes is far more than a reference to a particular strand within a strand of any plot line. Look at the word "aspect." What does that suggest or imply to you? Look at what is depicted throughout the episode, how that relates to the season / series, and then read the rest of my post, which you can't argue with, as clearly you do not have any clue about the literary allusion made by the writers.
Did I spell that right? Now, listen to someone who has read Charles Dickens, learn something, and if you want to split hairs over a syntactical error in somebody's post, write something that has at least an once of substance, as revealed by the text of the show, as opposed to some weak shit, that makes you look more the fool than my 6th grade teacher.
Write posts that say something, as opposed to posts that nit-pick over "syntax," It appears as if you have never seen another episode. True or false.

We only have 3 people that made it in the Barksdale crew that didn't die or is locked up in jail after being a part of the drug game. POOT (my baby) Cutty, and Slim Charles. All the big dogs are gone:
Bodie R.I.P.
Stringer Bell R.I.P
Wallace R.I. P.
Savino R.I. P.
D'Angelo R.I. P.
Stinkum R.I.P.
Fruit R.I.P.
Avon Locked up
Weebey Locked up
Puddin I don't know what happen to him.
Shamrock I don't know what happen to him.
All of these guys played a great part on the show and I enjoyed watching them. The Barksdale Crew made the whole Wire.

What is it, 4 more episodes, including tonights?
Episode 57, Feb. 17; ep 58, Feb. 24; ep 59, Mar. 2; and ep 60, Mar. 9; being the season finale, right?
I hope they do more with Nick Sobotka and him yelling at that developer, Krawcheyk, from episode 56. And I know they got to do something with Clay Davis getting back on Nareese when she tried to run him out of town.
My husband, by the way, brought up a good point. He said it's funny how the season finale airs the same day Biggie Smalls was murdered, which was on March 9th. He thinks something big will happen in the finale, like Marlo will be brutality killed like Buggs daddy was killed by Chris. Something really BIG, my husband predicts.

This is why I'm glad I have all 4 seasons of The Wire>>In season 3, episode 5, you see Clay Davis, attorney Levy, and that fat man, Krawcheyk, the developer, all sitting around at a table in Avon and Stringer's club talking. Then in season 5, episode 56, you see that fat man, Krawcheyk, again, at the ribbon cutting ceremony with Carcetti when it looks like who appears to be Nick Sobotka, from season 2, yelling at Krawcheyk. (I thought Nick Sobotka was in the witness protection program).
Anyway, I'm glad I've started watching The Wire from season 1, while at the same time watching season 5, because by doing so, it ties up a lot of 'loose ends' for me, and gets me 'caught up' to where The Wire is now in season 5.
This is a very complicated and complex series. Anyone who hasn't followed it from season 1's first episode, or doesn't have all 4 seasons on DVD to revert to, will be LOST.

Milton"Butch"Jones and the Y.B.I earned $400 million dollars a year in the city of Detriot and thats only what the Detroit Police and F.B.I can prove he earned, in his book he hid $10 million dollars out in the middle of the Arizona desert, he is currently on death role. Coming in late 2009 their will be a major motion picture out, not taking nothing away from The Wire but Butch Jones made both avon and marlo look like corner boys I highly recommend this book please read and judge for your self. And to your question lisa no I'm not in the book but my aunt married into the jones family I went into the military due to the fact there was only two places Butchie told us we would end up, and guess what their are only 5 members left on the streets everyone is dead or in jail!!!!! bless everyone and bring our troops home now, not one more mothers tears over this.

I have to agree i will also find it interesting to see where they are going to go with that court leak angle.... i guess they would've been doing us an injustice if they shed a little light on the crooked in the judistial system. The only thing I can say that I would request, if i could request, is to not end the Wire with a blood bath!!! - Where everybody dies, the dealers the cops, innocent bystanders, everybody just to have an action packed ending.

First, I believe Omar will draw Marlo out by continuing to kill his muscle and fucking with his money. Chris already knows what time it is with Omar, which is why my man is stressin right now. Snoop is sounding like how Mike sounded in the car asking question about, "Why this and what about that?" Her thuggery is coming into question because it seems she is not thinking like someone who could get got quickly by someone with Omar's caliber (figuratively and literally speaking).
Second, to the cat who was asking about the dude who stands on Mike's corner. That's Spyder....the dude who was boxing with Cutty until Cutty started tappin his moms. He showed his boxing skills when he whooped Dukie's ass on the corner after that little bastard Kenard starting messing with him. By the way, I think Mike will get payback for Dukie's ass whoopin before the season ends.....cuz you know Mike didn't like that at all! Mike is nicer with his hands than Spyder and twice already son wanted to make it happen. Soon....
Lastly, as a conspiracy theory....or rather how I see this whole Bunny Colvin remake in Season 5 going down. I think this punk ass reporter Templeton is going to be the one to make everything crash and burn. He's mad nervous. He almost gives himself away when McNulty calls him after already stating that he had talked to the serial killer. Plus, you got that other cat, Gus Haynes (the editor) slowly uncovering various lies duke has told to keep his story alive. Templeton is going to get cornered, confess to the original call being a fake and it'll all turn right back around to McNulty....who gets caught for falsifying EVERYTHING (although they WILL get Marlo), but will take the fall alone.....because he's not the type of person to take someone down with him. Freeman, Sydnor and anyone else who helped will be safe.
Aight....I'm out.. Except...I'm really curious to see how the whole leak in the courthouse angle plays out. Marlo may be wearing the crown, but Prop Joe will be missed in many ways. You kill someone who you only knew a fraction of his power and reach....it's gonna come back to kick you in the ass, son. If Prop Joe was able to bail out a cat days before the cops were coming for him, he could have looked out for Marlo the same way.
And with that....BIG UP CLAY DAVIS! You thought he was going to jail?? Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!
