The Wire
"and some of you I'm meeting for the first time."
The Wire
"But the only point l'd really like to make here today"
The Wire
"is that this is a transitional time"
The Wire
"We have a new mayor and a new state's attorney,"
The Wire
"and they both feel like they have a mandate for change."
The Wire
"The point is that given the mayor's position on crime"
The Wire
"and given the outcome of the election, we can expect certain enhancements."
The Wire
"Oh, really?"
The Wire
"Certain improvements may be forthcoming in the near future."
The Wire
"So we're looking for feedback here,"

The Wire
"political capital than we have right now."
The Wire
"Speaking of which, it brings us to another"
The Wire
"Iittle piece of business."
The Wire
"The ministers are pressing for a civilian review,"
The Wire
"but it speaks directly to the situation with Burrell."
The Wire
"If we expend capital defending this incident--"
The Wire
"I get it. You want the cop fired."
The Wire
"No, we're not saying that at all."
The Wire
"The mayor doesn't want to interfere with"
The Wire
"the everyday workings of the department."
The Wire
"But it's a balancing act."
The Wire
"Our response has to be smart and evenhanded,"
The Wire
"in a racial sense, especially."
The Wire
"If I'm hearing you, it's about perception."
The Wire
"Exactly."
The Wire
"I.I.D. has a black commander,"
The Wire
"but he's beholden to Burrell."
The Wire
"He'll stir shit with this if he can."

The Wire
"- That work for you? - Works for us."
The Wire
"Who that? I said, who's that?"
The Wire
"You home or you just visiting?"

"I don't want to make no noise on that, though."
The Wire
"They pressin' you."
The Wire
"You know..."
The Wire
"get with me, and we pay 'em right back, okay?"
The Wire
"No, all that shit you been sayin' to me"
The Wire
"goin' through my head."
The Wire
"Forget about that. Forget about all that."
The Wire
"you would have never been up on that corner."
The Wire
"But everything I do I be fucking up."
The Wire
"Whole time it feel like it wasn't me on that corner."
The Wire
"I just wanted to get away."
The Wire
"This is you, right here, right now, okay?"

The Wire
"Let's go."
The Wire
"This is everything?"
The Wire
"statements of the other officers-- it's all there."
The Wire
"No independent witnesses, huh:"
The Wire
"but I'm not feeling much in the way of fire."
The Wire
"It was a strong case for discourtesy."
The Wire
"True, but no indication of racial or religious overtones."
The Wire
"And the brutality allegation is a stretch."
The Wire
"I've gone over G.O.C.-7."
The Wire
"I'm up to speed with the matrix,"
The Wire
"but since the buck stops with me on this one,"
The Wire
"Minor offenses, you can issue a summary judgment--"
The Wire
"a period of extra duty without pay,"
The Wire
"guidance and counseling, the like."
The Wire
"Or if Sergeant Hauk fights your decision"
The Wire
"or if there's a more substantive charge,"
The Wire
"And possible termination?"
The Wire
"Let me ask you--"
The Wire
"if the minister's connected,"
The Wire
"and if all eyes are on this one,"
The Wire
"City Hall just wants someone to do the right thing,"
The Wire
"whatever that is."
The Wire
"You're sitting here, Deputy,"
The Wire
"telling me to just do the right thing?"
The Wire
"Hey! What are you doing? Come here!"
