More Details
- Summary:
- This unvarnished, highly realistic series follows a single sprawling drug and murder investigation in Baltimore. Told from the point of view of both the police and their targets, where easy distinctions between good and evil are challenged at every turn.
Ep.6. D'Angelo's boy Wallace awakens to a grim scene outside the abandoned rowhouse that he shares with a group of parentless children. -- Ep.7. Prez, it turns out, has another unexpected gift: the ability to decipher the slurred, streetwise slang of the drug dealers. Rawls presses Santangelo to come up with something negative on McNulty but Santangelo resists. The squad lays plans to bust the Barksdale crew as they re-up the stash which, they've learned from the wiretaps, Stinkum and a runner will be carrying the next morning. -- Ep.8. Sleuthing apparently runs in McNulty's family. When the detective encounters Stringer Bell in a grocery store while shopping with his kids, he has his sons play a spy game in which one leads and one follows the target. - Table of Contents:
