What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So am I not supposed to know what D was flushing down the toilet? Or was I just right that it was his old stash of drugs?

This may be ignorant, but power runs through wires, right?Another place for the Wire metaphor. Kinda picturing Ebay guy wandering around cyberspace with a shopping cart. Cute shirts though. Yeah, I'm thinking that was...product.

D flushed his stash, P-C. You're right.

Thanks, Cor. My second season ahem appears to be of a lower video quality than the first, so it was hard to tell.

Surveillance is so exciting sometimes! I loved the tail of the cargo. They even switched cars in the middle! I think there needed to be a little more "10-4, do you copy?" business, though.

I'm confused about the drug trade! How does, er, the rather large dude fit in? Wasn't he the referee for the basketball game? And the guy who told Omar Avon's pager number? And the guy who cleared Zig of his debt? Why doesn't Avon want to deal with him? And is he supplying the East Side already? If not, then what's his territory? Because his proposition seems reasonable enough.

Man, Daniels is just being pulled in all different directions. Trouble is, I'm finding it increasingly hard to believe that any of these people really care about bringing justice to the dead girls. Well, besides Lester. Maybe Kima. Hell, maybe neither one of them; maybe they were just trying to make the other party feel guilty. The murders just seem like fucking leverage, this whole season. The only person without an agenda in this damn case is Beadie, bless her heart.

He's Proposition Joe. You fuck with him, he'll kill your whole family. And no, he wasn't the referee. He was the other side. The East Side, if you will.

And no, he wasn't the referee.

Okay, I did think he maybe wasn't the referee. I also thought Stringer referred to him as Proposition Joe, but that seemed like such a silly name I thought I had it wrong.

You'll see more of him.

Punishingly Intricate

PROP JOE!!!

one of my favorite characters from the series. He's a local actor/teacher whose role expanded as the series progressed I think because he was so fucking awesome.
