Clips from The Wire - Port in a Storm (S02E02)

"Everywhere we go these days, we seem to be walking into police."
The Wire
"This is telling us something."
The Wire
"You're going to leave 15 million tholaria to rot on the pier?"
The Wire
"Lambs go to slaughter. A man, he learns when to walk away."
The Wire
"No, we go."
The Wire
"We don't wait?"
The Wire
"-Still here. -Then go."
The Wire
"Sobotka was a cooperator?"
The Wire
"We had preliminary discussions with him yesterday."
The Wire
"He agreed to post today with a lawyer, but instead...."
The Wire
"So what's left of the case?"
The Wire
"We've pulled in everyone caught up in the wiretaps, save for a couple bodies."
The Wire
"We left the man we think is the number two for the operation..."
The Wire
"on the street, hoping he'd lead us to number one."
The Wire
"We have people on him?"
The Wire
"He's out of pocket at the moment."
The Wire
"Last seen leaving a downtown hotel, but we expect he'll resurface."
The Wire
"And the union people?"
The Wire
"With Sobotka dead, the case right now is limited to a subordinate or two."
The Wire
"But the important thing for us is the union."
The Wire
"Either they jettison their current leadership..."
The Wire
"or we have enough to get that local decertified."
The Wire
"Leaving only me and my 14 bodies."
The Wire
"When do we get to that bit of business?"
The Wire
"Lt. Daniels? Line 2. Det. Freamon insisted I put him through."
The Wire
"In all likelihood, Frank Sobotka was going to speak to that."
The Wire
"-Sobotka came in. -The nephew?"
The Wire
"Come on, Bubs. You gotta do better if you wanna walk on this."
The Wire
"-How about some murders? -How about them?"
The Wire
"Except for that mess with that young boy who got hit..."
The Wire
"with the stray through the window, ain't been nothing."
The Wire
"-How about that? -I ain't got nothing on that one."
The Wire
"It's just two crews beefing over a corner."
The Wire
"You know what, Bubs? You going to jail."
The Wire
"How you gonna talk about going to jail?"
The Wire
"Like we ain't got history in this room. Like we ain't friends or nothing."
The Wire
"When you was up in that hospital, all I did was worry."
The Wire
""What about Kima? What's up with my girl?""
The Wire
"I'm just happy to see you're up in the mix..."
The Wire
"and you talking about jail and shit."
The Wire
"That's too cold, girl, damn."
The Wire
"Remember that Eastsider got shot in the high-rises, right?"
The Wire
"You remember that shit, right?"
The Wire
"I mean, you were right there, Bubbles."
The Wire
"That wasn't shit. Boy got hit with a rat shot, that all."
The Wire
"-Who you talking about? -Boy named Cheese."
The Wire
"Him and the other Eastsiders moved into the Terrace..."
The Wire
"took over a couple towers from the Stringer Bell's boys."
The Wire
"Then some crazy-ass bow-tie nigger came in and chased his ass home."
The Wire
"And what happened?"
The Wire
"Mr. Bow Tie, he ran them off."
The Wire
"He told them Eastsider fools, "Them towers belong to Avon.""
The Wire
"But then he ain't come back no more."
The Wire
"I mean, it ain't like a war or nothing."
The Wire
"It's like Stringer Bell and them are sharing."
The Wire
"Sharing?"
The Wire
"You guys are on all of it?"
The Wire
"If there's anything about this deal you don't understand--"
The Wire
"They killed my uncle."
The Wire
"How do you know they did it?"
The Wire
"I told...."
The Wire
"Tells me he wants us to keep our mouths shut..."
The Wire
"but Uncle Frank, he says he ain't gonna."
The Wire
"Says he's gonna go talk to the police."
The Wire
"Spiros says that if we keep quiet..."
The Wire
"they can help my cousin, Zig, you know?"
The Wire
"And now Spiros is saying that..."
The Wire
"I don't know, the kid, the one that didn't die..."
The Wire
"the one that got shot..."
The Wire
"That Glekas pulled the gun, and it wasn't really Zig's fault."
The Wire
"So your uncle went to meet them and talk about that?"
The Wire
"Under the Key Bridge."
The Wire
"I seen his car was still there this morning."
The Wire
"Shit!"
The Wire
"I was gonna go down with him to the bridge."
The Wire
"I was gonna go down there with him."
The Wire
"You were involved in the smuggling?"
The Wire
"We didn't know about the girls."
The Wire
"Them girls that got found?"
The Wire
"-We didn't know there were girls in there. -You thought it was drugs?"
The Wire
"Drugs, stolen shit, whatever."
The Wire
"We got paid by the can to creep shit off the docks. That's all."
The Wire
"That and selling the drugs that you got from The Greek, too, right?"
The Wire
"That's your cousin's signed statement."
The Wire
"The bill of sale from the pawn shop is in there, too."
The Wire
"It wouldn't have mattered if the second victim had backed up on his story."
The Wire
"Your uncle was sitting yesterday right where you're sitting now..."
The Wire
"ready to give us everything, if we made the drug charges go away for you."
The Wire
"And maybe got your cousin to a better lock-up than Eager Street."
The Wire
"As you can see, we're willing to honor that deal..."
The Wire
"even if it didn't happen for your uncle."
The Wire
"Spiros was the main guy."
The Wire
"and then when it came to me and the drugs, he was the one that hooked that up, too."
The Wire
"The lsraeli, he was their drug guy. I went through him for all my re-ups..."
The Wire
"until they passed me off to White Mike McArdle. You know Mike?"
The Wire
"Guess you do."
The Wire
"Double G was in charge of stolen shit."
The Wire
"Anything we could lift from the docks went straight to his store..."
The Wire
"Her, I don't know."
The Wire
"My uncle, you know about him."
The Wire
"I don't know why you got Horse's picture up there."
The Wire
"Horse don't know shit. I'll testify to that."
The Wire
"What about the Russian?"
The Wire
"He drove for them."
The Wire
"Anything that had to come off the docks, he was their guy."
The Wire
"he was probably going to be around for that part of it, too."
The Wire
"Why did you think that?"
The Wire
"Sergei, he just carried it like that."
The Wire
"they told me that whoever fucked that up..."
The Wire
"They said that whoever did that to them girls was dead."
The Wire
"And how did they say it?"
The Wire
"They just said, I don't know..."
The Wire
"he was a dead end."
The Wire
"-A dead end? -Yeah."
The Wire
"In Philly, they said."
The Wire
"Who's the suit?"
The Wire
"You sure?"
The Wire
"We know that someone is above your man Spiros."
The Wire
"Someone he was in communication with."
The Wire
"Yeah, The Greek."
