Episode 60: Series Finale Spoilers

[Replies: 111]
Quick spoilers, not scene by scene, but some details

Carcetti tells the department that they do nothing with McNulty and Freeman, because it ruins his chance to run for Governor. Daniels is upset and wants to go public, but Pearlman asks him not to because it will ruin her career.

Lester finds out the guy who was leaking the information (A character named Gary something, nobody important in the series), and he gives up Levy as one of the people who buys the leaks. He tells Pearlman

Levy and Marlo there's no bail for him or Chris or Monk, but for Cheese. Cheese puts up his father's house.

Bubbles doesn't want his story to go public

Dookie looks like a bum, and gets a loan from Prezbo. He says he's gonna use it for GED program, but doesn't.

Pearlman tells Levy they have him as the leak, because they have a recorded message with him buying it. They negotiate a deal: Marlo walks free (with his money), but if he gets back in the game, they reopen the case. Monk and Cheese do 20 years, Chris does life with no parole

McNulty tries to get Jay to pull all the teams because he says he doesn't need them anymore (At this point, Jay doesn't know the case is BS)

Scott makes up a story about a homeless man getting abducted. McNulty and police come to the scene, and find out it was BS.

Lester finally meets up with McNulty and tells him that everyone knows it's made up. McNulty and Lester are scared and wonder why they are not arrested.

There is a scene with McNulty and Daniels in the elevator alone. Nobody says a word, until the end, then Daniels walks out and says "To be continued". McNulty was mad uncomfortable. lol

Levy tells Marlo he's getting out, but he has to give up the crown. He's disappointed in that, and that Chris is doing life. He says Chris will is loyal, and wont say nothing as long as Marlo keeps his family okay.

There's a copycat murderer, Greggs, McNulty and Bunk on the scene. McNulty tells them that Daniels knows. Daniels and Rawls take McNulty into the room, have an intense discussion. They tell him to figure out the murderer quickly, it's his last case. They get the evidence and McNulty figures out the copycat killer in less then a minute. He confesses to all the murders. He only gets charged for two.

Marlo sells the connect for 10,000,000 dollars to the Co-Op.

this is running longer then I expected. Here's how everything ends up

Marlo becomes a business man, and meets with the same people Stringer Bell used to (The developer, and some politicians) with Levy. Marlo asks like he's going to the bathroom, but leaves and goes outside. He sees to kids on the corner (Looks like Bodie's old corner) talking about Omar. Marlo asks them "Do you know who I am" they say "Do you know who I am". One pulls out a gun, Marlo knocks him out, the other one runs. Marlo is stabbed in the arm during the confrontation. He looks at the wound, licks his blood, and smiles as he looks around.

During the co-op meeting (Outside) of how to come up with the money. Cheese says he got the 900,000 to put it over the top. Rick chastises him for the Prop Joe thing, Cheese pulls a gun on him and goes on a long tirade. Slim Charles blast him in the dome "That was for Joe"

They have a "fake" wake for McNulty at the bar. Everyone shows. Lester is there with Sharden (Still looking good, short hair cut, though). When they are outside they talk about the fact Marlo gets to walk (Pearlman told them earlier in the episode). Greegs comes by to tell them she loved working with them, and reveals she is the snitch. Lester is content, because he has retired,and wants Greggs to drink with him. McNulty and Greegs shake hands and smile, but he goes home. Very nice segment.

Michael is the new Omar. He robs Vincent and shoots him in the leg. He has a partner now. (Not sure if he's gay, but he has another shooter with him. Some light skinned kid with braids).

Daniels resigns, because it hurts too many people's careers to go public with the Lester/McNulty ishm, and since Narisse has the evidence to slam him, he quits. Carver (With other cops) gets promoted in his last act as commissioner

Herc is still Herc

Bubbles lets the story run, and they show him eating dinner with his sister and her daughter in the kitchen.

Sydnor is the new McNulty, he talks with the Judge guy that used to give them the Wire taps. And sydnor says "Daniels wouldn't know real police work if it came to his door with a warrant"

Weebay and Chris are friends now in jail.

Rhonda Pearlman becomes a judge. Daniels becomes a lawyer (He had a law degree)

The new Commissioner is Valchek (sp). Prezbo's father in law.

Alma gets demoted because she gave Gus information about Scott making up stories. Scott wins an award for journalism.

Carcetti is the new governor or runner for governor

Narisse is the new Mayor is looks like

Kenard gets arrested by the Homicide police

Slim Charles and Rick run B-More, they show them meeting with the Greeks.

Dukie is a dope fiend

Gregs and Bunk are still working murders

Dope is still running B-More

The end shows McNulty finding the homeless guy that he sent to the homeless shelter center. At the end they're in the car and McNulty says "Let's go home Larry"

Any other questions just ask.

to clarify:
Larry is McNulty's 2nd cousin. Jimmy actually vocalized that information.

AB, I agree. I think the Wire shoulda ended in 3 seasons. Season 4 and 5 sucked to me, because they brought about no closure. They were worthless story lines. Season 4 and 5 could have been a spinoff series, because it damn sure wasn't The Wire that I loved.

Let's Go Home? McNulty says to the homeless man, "larry, let's go home!" Is McNulty homeless, and they're gonna live together as homeless?
Or, was McNulty taking Larry to Beadie's house with him?

Finale sucked, I think for my Wire world, the show ends at episode 59 and I can fill in the rest the way I want. The mcnulty love fest and spending 75 out of the 95 minutes on the cops/reporters is a joke. The thing that made the wire great was showing the real people involved in the drug game, not some inner-office police squabbling or how the mayors office deals with a crisis.

I love how David Simon acts like he doesnt understand why this seasons ratings sucked. No one watched it because they tuned in for the first 2 episodes and realized that this season wasnt dedicated to showing anything new or building relationships and complexities, but rather was 10 episodes glorifying the most generic character in the show- McNulty.

They had a chance to make up for it, by having something shocking happen at the end. They could get rid of any character they wanted or do anything they wanted, but instead Simon cops out with a "happy" ending. Marlo is free and can fight like Rambo, Michael (whose a terrible character played by a terrible actor) is now like Omar and I assume is gay now, McNulty is somewhat sober and happy, bubs is clean, oh wonderful david simon. 5 seasons of telling us there are no happy endings and then you give us this shit.

Yeah the finale was straight garbage. What kind of story teller is Simon? This man leads his reader/viewers to follow a gang of story lines that go absolutely nowhere.

The biggest disappointment of them all is when we were led to believe that there'll be a showdown between Omar and Marlo's mob, but Omar gets popped by some stray little youngsta and the only nigga that he was able to cross out of his shit list was that runt Savino. The Wire turned out to be a big disappointment.

Also Mcnulty and Freemon being cool with Shakima Greggs ruining their career case and eventually their careers was straight up bullshit.

Sherrod comes back to life from the grave because bubbles stops doing drugs. Mchnulty finds that Sherrod was simply sleeping and pretended to die.

the lord is so happy with bubbles story in the newspaper that the city of baltimore is crime free for the next 13 years and 4 months.

if this is how it ends i'll be pissed. marlo should go free because he was smart how he stayed away from it all. but this is just pathetic. the show made it seem that like there was more to chris. but now chris is a punk bitch that lets marlo go free. marlo should have been taken down by slim charles. marlo played the game perfect but there should have been pay back in the streets. this makes no sense and there will be a season 6 because nothing is resolved or comes to any conclusion. terrible.

I think someone else said it but...that scene with Mike as the new Omar...it didn't work for me. Very hokey. Mike can be the new Omar and not act like Omar, but both his partner and Vinson lacked too much emotion. It didn't seem professional, sorry to say. It was amateurish.
