"There's never been a paper bag." - Colvin
Omar continues his bold strikes on Barksdale stash houses, now heavily guarded. Under orders from Stringer Bell, Bodie faces Marlo, a fierce young dealer with lucrative corners near the now-toppled Franklin Terrace towers. McNulty launches his own reinvestigation of last year's prison suicide of D'Angelo Barksdale. Greggs' relationship with Cheryl and the new baby is shakey. Burrell is feeling heat from Councilman Carcetti and reaches an uneasy peace with the legislator. The street violence also presents Daniels with the difficult decision of whether to help end a drug war in the Eastern district, at the cost of giving up a months-long wiretap. Cheese loses more than a little on his bet at a bloody dogfight and later is hauled downtown for questioning as a murder suspect by Bunk and McNulty. A beleaguered Cutty seeks employment outside the drug world. Carver, Herc and the Western drug unit take to the street undercover, but a hand-to-hand drug-buy goes sour, prompting Major "Bunny" Colvin, the district commander, to question his thirty years on the force and the legacy of his career.moreless

Bunny Colvin: You know what I was thinking? That tonight's a good night. Why? Because my shot cop didn't die. And it hit me. This is what makes a good night on my watch. Absence of a negative. Here's the thing. Six months from now, I'm gone. I put in my thirty, and the only thing going to be left of me on that job is an 8-by-11 framed picture in the Western hallway. But you know what? The shit is out there. The city is worse than when I first came on. So what does that say about me? About my life?
