Freamon's hard work pays off with a promising lead, though McNulty isn't in the mood to celebrate.

I was surprised myself when Kima turned on McNulty myself but I do understand why she did it. She has gone along with everything he has done in the past but for her he crossed the line. Even Bunk agreed. And if you watched McNulty is not a happy camper himself because his lie is getting harder to hold down and his fellow officers
are already blackmailing him for OT to work their own cases. Mcnulty was on a drinking spree when he came up with the idea!
If he was thinking he would've done what you said by leaking the story to the paper abt how the Mayor doesnt give a damn abt the 22 bodies they were boarded up in the vacants. I dont think McNulty could blackmail the mayor but he could get that Narese chick or whoever wants Carcetti's seat and play them against Carcetti with the vacant story.

Avon is still the top dog because he got rid of prop joe,when he told marlo in prison that he has no love for eastside boys and that started all this drama,joe is dead,omar dead,and marlo is indicted.avon is still the shot caller everything has to go through him, remember he hooked up marlo through the connect.

Kima did what she had to do. McNulty's a corrupt cop, even though he's been made corrupt by the corrupt department and even though he did what he did with good intentions. Simon's showing us you can't get to good by playing along in an evil game.

I dont think Prop Joe would have ever killed Cheese because he was blood, "his sister's boy" as he's said before. What I dont understand is he knew Cheese was flaky, he should have kept him at a distance or kicked him to the curb.
More importantly, I really was surprised that he didnt catch on to Marlo and how vicious he was.

The quote of the series was by carcetti " This is baltimore no one lives for ever". The wire has done a great job showing us the world of Baltimore politics, police, and last but cetainly not least the drug trade. david simon showed us that theres is only a thin line between the three and how they all back stab each other

Baltimore is a jungle, Carcetti is the Lion, king of the jungle, to keep it real he is not going to loose, just like senator davis. Survival of the fittest.

Good points. When Carver turned in Colichio he was beating on a school teacher for no reason other than that he was pissed off and wanted to vent. When McNulty set up his scam it was to bring down Marlo and co. and to get the city to actually care about crime instead of pushing the city under the bus so as to cater to the teachers union.
One is an act of brutatlity the other is a means of getting crimes solved when the city itself screwed over the police dept. and made it impossible to do their jobs. Hats off to McNulty for getting it done. It's too bad he had to go outside of the law to do it. Carcetti, shouldn't feel too bad, it gave him an issue that he could hype, the bust made it seem as if he was actually doing something about crime as opposed to burying the 22 murders.
If McNulty has any balls he should basically blackmail Carcetti and say if he goes down he tells the papers how Carcetti was soft on crime and buried the murders and shut down the police force for political reasons. I doubt he'll make governor when its revealed he sat on 22 murders.

kima blowing the whistle should taint the entire bust, the whole case will get thrown out, the murder warrant for chris should stand though,we saw kima,refusing to finger wee bay back in S1, no short cuts for her, we don't know E60 turns out, but she owed it to her old crew a chance to wrap it up in 2 or 3 days but she didn't
prediction....levy's grand jury insider is that grey haired guy played by retired BPD member garry d'addido,pardon the spelling

People are mad at Greggs for two reasons:
1. She didnt even hear Mcnulty out, she forgot that a few years ago she was "cutting corners"to finish a job,and no 1 did anything because it was for the good of Balitmore
and 2. She didnt even hear Lesters take on it and thats her mentor, she walked in saw the operation she what she had to say then she left, without even hearing what he had to say about it.
Bottom line- she thinks just because shes getting her life back on track and shes found a place in homicide that it was her "duty" as an officer to pull the corruption outta the baltimore PD.Shiiiiiiiiiiiit!!! did she think about the fallout from the info?NO! she didnt, did she think about the lives of her fellow officers?.....No!!! it was a selfish move. she didnt snitch because it was right she snitched because it made her feel right.

Without in any way arguing for the rightness of what McNulty's doing, Kima is a bad friend and partner for betraying a man who's been her friend and partner for years now. She didn't turn in a rogue cop who's out brutalizing or killing people. She turned in a man who's trying to put away a serious mass murderer. McNulty obviously made a mistake about her character by telling her the information she betrayed him with, and he did it to help her.
What McNulty did is wrong, both in moral and legal terms.
What Kima did is wrong in terms of friendship and honor. I would never want to partner up with such a person.
