Clips from The Wire - Mission Accomplished (S03E03)

"- What broke? - Nothing, Mama."
The Wire
"which is where I used to feel pretty good, I think."
The Wire
"That doesn't make sense."
The Wire
"It's like everything I poured into a glass came out the bottom."
The Wire
"And I just kept on pouring, like the thing had a hole in it, you know?"
The Wire
"Major Colvin misled his officers."
The Wire
"and together we moved immediately..."
The Wire
"to relieve Major Colvin of his command."
The Wire
"We needed the time to conclude an ongoing investigation..."
The Wire
"who, out of his frustration and despair..."
The Wire
"We can do that much."
The Wire
"But, gentlemen, what we can't forgive..."
The Wire
"communities which we've failed to defend..."
The Wire
"the addicts who go untreated..."
The Wire
"not just for the mistakes and the miscues..."
The Wire
"if that doesn't happen..."
The Wire
"Unless you can give your word, there's no way that I can..."
The Wire
"That's more than fair. Thanks."
The Wire
"It's not you, it's me."
The Wire
"- But where... - The Western, I think."
The Wire
"3:30 would be good."
The Wire
"What the fuck you all standing around for? Man, get to work."
The Wire
"What do you see right here?"
The Wire
"Here."
The Wire
"Thirty cent a pound. No problem."
The Wire
"Yeah, you don't want to know. You think you're brown, but you still green."
The Wire
"Cops be back banging on you, hoppers be messing with you."
The Wire
"- Who's got the scene? - Massey and Crutchfield are working it."
The Wire
"- How about the crime lab? - Can he get enough oxygen here?"
The Wire
"He's getting the full treatment, boss."
The Wire
"Just one witness so far."
The Wire
"And you know what that means. Right now, it's all BNBG."
The Wire
"It's Andy Kraw's big adventure."
The Wire
"Mayor's office already called twice, worried sick about the man."
The Wire
"- So, what's the scene say? - Two shooters. Shotgun, semi-auto."
The Wire
"One vic is a West Side soldier with a pretty healthy sheet."
The Wire
"So, a hit. Drug related."
The Wire
"Second vic, Russell Bell."
The Wire
"Owner and co-developer of this here."
The Wire
"But you were aware that Russell Bell was regarded as a major narcotic violator?"
The Wire
"How do you think he made his money?"
The Wire
"I didn't inquire."
The Wire
"So, you never got a look at either of the gunmen?"
The Wire
"with a large weapon."
The Wire
"Big negro, big gun."
The Wire
"Two more like it upstairs."
The Wire
"Yeah."
The Wire
"Have ballistics rush comparisons. Drug-relateds for the last six months."
The Wire
"I caught him, Bunk."
The Wire
"Boxing, yeah."
The Wire
"I know you loved that. I hated it."
The Wire
"I hated watching it."
The Wire
"Yeah, I know you did. So you're doing good, huh?"
The Wire
"- Day to day, I am. - Because I was thinking, maybe..."
The Wire
"I'm proud of you, Dennis. Be well."
The Wire
"Shit is on."
The Wire
"What's up, B?"
The Wire
"You all right?"
The Wire
"We gonna bounce back on the motherfucker, no question."
The Wire
"- Oh, he gonna fall. - Marlo. Marlo ain't got shit to do with it."
The Wire
"Marlo couldn't get String like that. String died 'cause of some other shit."
The Wire
"What?"
The Wire
"He died because of some other shit, nigga."
The Wire
"I couldn't fix it. I tried."
The Wire
"That nigga was right. Fuck Marlo."
The Wire
"Once you in it, you in it!"
The Wire
"If it's a lie, then we fight on that lie."
The Wire
"But we gotta fight."
The Wire
"Got this out of his pocket."
The Wire
"I got no idea."
The Wire
"- It's a cell chip from a phone. - Oh."
The Wire
"- What else did you get off him? - $200 cash, set of keys, license."
The Wire
"President Street address?"
The Wire
"- What if the man happens to be right? - Legalizing drugs?"
The Wire
"Crime is down in his district and people on that side of town, they're okay with it."
The Wire
"Look, if you don't exist, what happens here?"
The Wire
"If there's no Tommy Carcetti in this thing, what's likely to happen?"
The Wire
"The Mayor and Burrell, they shut this thing down."
The Wire
"I figure the Mayor's trying to find a way to shut it down to make it look like..."
The Wire
"it was an enforcement plan in case it goes public."
The Wire
"Otherwise he'd have moved to end it already."
The Wire
"Makes sense, but no matter what..."
The Wire
"Colvin's little experiment is finished."
The Wire
"Come on, Tommy."
The Wire
"Mr. Mayor, call it legalization and my office can't live with it."
The Wire
"Agreed. No one can."
The Wire
"That could sell, provided there's a reduction in the crime rate."
The Wire
"Harm reduction. Sounds good."
The Wire
"Steven, what if we were able to suggest..."
The Wire
"We were concentrating our resources on high-level traffickers."
The Wire
"How would that play?"
The Wire
"But they've been doing street rips for so long now, I don't think a high-level exists."
The Wire
"What if we were able to say that no major traffickers were allowed..."
The Wire
"in the free zone, that all major..."
The Wire
"Well, are you suggesting some kind of admissions criteria for the zones?"
The Wire
"- How would that work? - I don't know that it would."
The Wire
"I'm just saying that for the sake of public perception, huh?"
The Wire
"Come on, people, work with me on this thing!"
The Wire
"Fucked up, ain't it?"
The Wire
"Marlo need to get his ass dropped, him and all his crew."
The Wire
"That's the word on the wire anyway."
The Wire
"Every mention puts it on Marlo Stanfield's crew..."
The Wire
"which means the war's gonna ratchet up, no question."
The Wire
"Where's Jimmy?"
The Wire
"He went with Bunk Moreland to rifle Stringer's spot downtown."
The Wire
"- How'd he take it? - Like Stringer was kin."
The Wire
"- Yeah? - Bushy top."
The Wire
"- Need to pull on your coat, boy. - Hey, what's up, Major?"
The Wire
"I got something for you all."
The Wire
"Mount Vernon Square in about an hour."
The Wire
"I'm there."
The Wire
"What's done is done."
The Wire
"Gay-ass gangsters. Please."
The Wire
"I took it for as long as I could."
The Wire
"Let's go, man."
The Wire
"Let's go."
The Wire
"It being your town, I trust you to do it proper."
The Wire
"- You off today, boss? - Every day at this point."
The Wire
"I told them over at COMSTAT about my little experiment."
The Wire
"Bosses went crazy, huh?"
