It's not the female prosecuter: bet the judge who is weirder than a bedbug is the inside guy. He's soooo dumb.
Kema is going down, no organization will put up with a whistle-blower. nope, she will suffer.
I can see it now: Herc in management, heaven help them.
I do miss String, now that man was *my* idea of management

Nobody's commenting on it... but I'm tellin' you. KENARD IS GOING TO BE THE ONE WHO KILLS MARLO. I mentioned it in an earlier post. I think it will be over the price tag on Omar's head and Marlo not wanting to pay up. Cheese gets rocked by Slim Charles... everyone sees that one coming... Dukie becomes a fiend. He's visiting Presbo to get money to cop. Don't know what happens to Micheal. If he survives, he's gonna run a crew of his own. McNulty commits suicide. Kima is hated for turnin' McNulty in. She quits the force and spends more time with her son. Bubbles stays clean and becomes a counselor. (BTW, as someone with close to twenty years clean, many people celebrate their anniversary months after their clean date.)

This is off topic, but I thought it was funny and wanted to share it.
HBO decided not to make the series finale available ON DEMAND a week prior to the official air date - instead they post this teaser in the ON Demand menu Sunday after midnight.

The newspaper, City Hall and all other loose ends:
- Templeton's shit is exposed by Gus and Ruby - only nobody at the top pays it any mind. Whiting and Klebanow remain fixated on the Pulitzers and would rather keep the issue held to a whisper.
- Despite the exposing of the serial killer hoax, Templeton keeps his job, but his articles are not offered for Pulitzer submission.
- Gus ponders leaving the paper, but Klebanow and Whiting make him an offer he can't refuse. Gus stays, is granted far more creative and editorial input into the paper, but no longer has Templeton reporting to him.
- The Pulitzers are in, and the Sun wins an award - for Fletcher's series on Bubs and surviving the streets. The irony being that reading the stories bring back bad memories for Bubs, who at this point is clean for over a year and invited to cook Mac and Cheese for his sister. Bubs ultimately reverts to old form and is found dead due to OD. Kima pays for the funeral and has Fletcher run an obit.
- Fletcher is offered a promotion, but turns it down in favor of a better offer from the Washington Post, looking to fill the same void for which Templeton previously applied and was rejected.
- Alma is devastated by the betrayal from the cop shop, namely McNulty, but finds an unexpected ally - Daniels - and is groomed as the paper's next (or at least female, sexier version of) Twigg.
- Carcetti plans to make a run for the statehouse, but struggles to find a suitable replacement after Narese's name is attached to the transcript scandal. He finally finds one in Marla Daniels (or whatever her last name is these days)
- Levy avoids being disbarred by naming names in the transcript scandal. He earns Marlo's trust by keeping him out of jail, and remains not only his lawyer, but chief advisor of his organization, not dissimilar to his role w/ Avon Barksdale.
- Bond remains State's Attorney, but his career aspirations no longer extend any further after being whipped in the Clay Davis trial.
- Clay Davis remains teflon. Sheeee-ittttttt

The law:
- Rawls and Daniels give McNulty an earful, but also serve a gag order, leaving him to eat their shit until they figure out a plan to escape the scandal with as little harm as possible. McNulty is ready to break clean - until a copycat killer emerges. Angered, the dep't assigns McNulty to the case - alone, no backup, no OT, no add'l resources. Forced to do actual police work, McNulty rediscovers his roots and actually brings the case home. Though no longer a target for termination, McNulty still decides to call it a career.
- Carver is promoted to Lieutenant, and is asked to hand pick a new DEU Sergeant - which becomes Sydnor.
- Bunk and Lester retire, though under different circumstances. Bunk goes out on top, after getting Partlow to cop to all of the murders, making 26 cases go from red to black without the dep't having to spare too much green. Lester, is forced to fade away quietly after his name is attached to the serial killer scandal and Marlo, Cheese and Monk are freed due to legal technicalities.
- After reading up on the Sun series on Bubs, Kima looks him up - only to discover that he reverted back to old habits and OD'd. Kima runs an obit in the Sun newspaper, pays for his funeral, and the series ends with her and McNulty drinking in his old spot, with the two kissing (so to speak) and making up while pondering the future of BodyMore.
- Carcetti convinces Rawls to step down as commish, assuming blame for the outbreak of scandals. Daniels makes his move to assume top spot, only for Narese to remind him of his past, accompanied by an insurance policy - he and his ex-wife (Marla) co-sign on every one of her demands on her way to assuming Carcetti's chair, or both can seek new careers.
- Daniels is ready to concede to Narese's demands until Pearlman discovers a startling revelation - former SA Demper is Levy's courthouse leak. Demper's involvement brings down his entire former ticket, including Royce and Narese. The tip comes from Lester, who offers it up as his last bit of police work, before flipping off the lights at MCU office for the last time and driving home.
- The cops wake that everyone keeps rumoring will happen in Ep 60 is for ex-cop Herc, who is killed after Levy hints to Marlo that nobody else could've supplied his cell # to the police.

The streets:
The Co-Op is disbanded, with the city drug game back to being divided between East Side and West Side.
Marlo, his muscle gutted to the core and reputation tarnished, decides to clean house, ordering Monk and Cheese to bang on every corner to let B-More know who runs shit. Monk is successful in rallying the troops. Cheese not so much, as he's led to believe that Slim will stand tall with him, before Slim puts one in his dome "That one's for Joe."
Slim also snatches the Greek as his connect in taking over East Side, as the Greeks are no longer interested in doing business w/ Marlo, who finds a new connect in an old source - Roberto from NYC, who used to supply Avon. The meet is mediated by Vinson, who also brings aboard Brother Mouzone as Marlo's chief enforcer, with NYC boys brought in as additional muscle.
Monk is promoted to Marlo's #2. O-Dogg fills Snoop's role, and Spider gets points on the package taking over Michael's old corner.
Kenard is arrested, but in the end it will show him running things in juvy.
Snoop's murder remains red on the Homicide board, and not treated as a priority.
Chris is the only one who sees jail time. He agrees to cop to everything - the murders, gun charge (moot at this point) and the drug conspiracy - on one condition: Marlo lets Michael be. Marlo agrees. Michael lives, gets out the game and returns to school, as well as Cutty's gym, ending the season/series winning a Golden Gloves tournament.
Dukie, however, is not so fortunate. He lives - if you want to call it living - but is homeless and strung out, railroad tracks up and down his arm. It is the discovery of his dead body that convinces Michael once and for all to get out of the game.
Despite the teaser trailer, Rick lives, and remains allies with Slim in keeping the East Side, the East side.
Toward episode's end, possibly even in the series finale montage, Spider's corner and a Stanfield stash house are hit - by Renaldo and Dante.

I know this was mentioned before, but if you watch the season preview, there are youngsters throwin rocks at the street camera. They could be the same boys that step up to Marlo. But then again, if you know Simon & Chase, they'll show you a preview, and you think you know what's going to happen, but those clips are parts of different scenes in the show put together to look like one. Cause if Marlo is walking up on a CO-OP meeting, which I believe is about the re-supply heist, I don't see lil hoppers being there. As for Mike, it makes since that he may become the next Omar. He has no car, he has no where to go, he has no source of income, and he's on the run.

I'm disppointed in HBO - Just as the majority of fans were let down by the last Sopranos episode, HBO has done the same again with not airing the last Wire episode on demand?? Why do it the entire season and not the last??
Why should I expect anything else from HBO anymore? Pathetic!

Freamon and McNulty's wiretap scheme is exposed, but the scandal is kept within BPD headquarters because Carcetti doesn't need the scandal while going for the statehouse. The method was flawed, but there's too much "dope on the table" to own up to the illegal wiretap with the public.
Freamon saves his own skin over the illegal wire because, thanks to Clay Davis, he gets the goods on State's Attorney Bond. He finds out Bond, not ADA Pearlman, sold secret Grand Jury materials to Levy. Freamon leaves the department quietly (retires) much like Major Colvin did over the free drug trade zone.
McNulty is looking at jail time, but if he goes the department would have to send everyone but Landsman, Greggs, and Moreland to prison eviscerating Homocide and the other detective divisions. Busted back to walking a beat in the Western, McNulty is happy to be back where he started without all the politics and pressure of downtown. At peace with his fate, he get's his personal act together, too, allowing him to square things with Beadie.
Levy gets the charges on Marlo quietly dropped because all the evidence against him is "fruit of the poisonous tree"...all the result of the illegal wiretap.
Chris is convicted based upon DNA evidence developed from Bunk's murder policing. The evidence is independent of the wiretap evidence. He gets "25 to life" for murder and meets Avon Barksdale in prison.
Monk and Cheese go to jail based on the dope recovered during the traffic stops conducted after the resupply. The dope evidence is "in", but evidence off the cellphones is "out".
Marlo takes to the streets to prove the cowardly rep put out by Omar is wrong, but his bark is bigger than his bite with all his enforcers in jail or dead. Marlo is killed by Brother Mouzone who's been hired by the Greek in retribution for the compromised resupply. Slim Charles reluctantly takes over the co-op, because he's the only co-op member the Greek will deal with. Mike move's up the ladder as an enforcer.
Undercovers follow gay suspects fitting the FBI BAU profile while working the serial killer case. The detectives observe Rawls in a compromising position in a city vehicle outside a gay bar. Rawls retires to avoid scandal leaving Daniels to take over the BPD.
Carver goes downtown to work homocide under Bunk Moreland's wing.
Bubbles is the only one to make it out of the game clean. Fletcher's piece makes him a minor celebrity and a media darling forming the basis for a fresh start. Time heals all and he reconciles with his sister.
Dukie Weems starts down the dark path, much like Bubbles did years before. He becomes a junkie with no feeling of self worth, working street schemes to get enough cash for a fix.
Ruby, backed by Haynes, exposes Templeton as a fraud. Whiting and Klebanow get canned, and Gus takes over as managing editor. The Sun gets it's Pulitzer, but it's for the expose' of Templeton, not for the Homeless piece.
