People in the ghettos know so much about drugs, and chemicals and shit I've never even heard of, they should use the knowledge to do something good with their lives, like be a chemist or someshit`
@Sarc37 I agree, just about cried when that happened, with his sponsor (?) coming to see him. Bubbles is one of my favorite characters in any story I've read or watched. I really felt for him even by the end of the first season.
@audiocable - I'm not known for crying, especially when it comes to TV shows. But the way Bubbles' story ended just...man it just got to me. We watched the redemption of a dope fiend. Front to back, top to bottom. Some really powerful stuff. Kudos to the creators, writers, and the actors of the Wire.
@macdaddynyc yeah the story of bubbles was powerful. for 5 entire seasons you see his miserable bleak life, then you see him get the shit beaten out of him and then he accidentally kills his nephew and becomes suicidal, and out of everything he went through he actually makes it out in the end to live a happier life... inspiring
Sherrod Wasnt Bubbles Son . Sherrod Was One Of The Kids From Around The Way That He Took In And Gave Him A Job ,, Helping Bubbles Sell His Stuff . Like The T-Shirts && Hats He Would Sell .
Out of all the scenes in The Wire, this is the hardest one for me to watch.
We are literally watching a person begin hitting their bottom here. It's sad, but at the same time without this happening to Sherrod; Bubbles doesn't begin the road to becoming sober. A life had to be lost to save another...sad...
I bet everyone that watched the Wire hoped that Bubbles would finally get his revenge on that thug. The Wire, just like in real life, doesn't let that happen.
@TheMichaelDearborn Bubbles put some deadly chemicals into the vial . .Sherrod took some of it and left money . .Bubbles didnt think Sherrod was using drugs. .thats why he just left the vials out . .
Bubbles was the heart of this show in season 1 when he tried to quit i was really hoping he would but in the end of the 1st season he couldnt really got me sad but in this season where he killed a friend who was like his own son really made me upset he tried so hard to stop the guy from beating on him but couldnt he turned to spiking the drugs shows how hard his life really was he was the heart of this amazing show
When the camera focused solely on Bubbles while he was waking up, I knew that two horrible things already happened: either Sherrod bounced and left or he grabbed the bad vials and overdose. It was still sad when the latter occured. The Wire is such an amazing show.
i think the dope fiend who`s always beating on them is meant to be a carector from nyc i think brooklyn look how he say son i`m from harlem and bk niggaz always say son
@KiddFlai the hotshot vial was for the dopefiend that harrassed Bubbles and Sherrod, but Sherrod figured the dopefiend would only act up once he was high so he thought that if he was high too when the dopefiend came round to hassle em he'd be able to scare him away and get a little more respect from Bubbles.
sherrod was simply starting to become an addict and thus probably looked through bubbles' jacket for money to buy. he found what he was looking for and it ended up being the end for him
@barcafanatic That's the brilliant writing of this show. Sherrod was "bout the business of killin' himself" but this definitely wasn't no thing to Bubs.
@jpom29. I totally agree with you on brother Royo's acting skills. He portrayed Bubbles character with such heartbreaking emotion in season 4 (also a standout in season 5) that he deserved an Emmy for his work (It's a shame that The Soprano's, and Entourage got more exposure than The Wire did). This scene
was such cruel irony as Bubbles was just trying to get revenge on a bullying dope fiend and inadvertently killed his friend in the process.
@TBIGMIL. Sherrod did kick Namond's tail as a warning from his competition to stop selling his product on his corner. Sherrod got accused for shorting the same dealer (which could have happened because Sherrod continually skipped class and had trouble shortchanging customers with his lack of math skills) and went back to Bubbles who promised to help him with his debt if he was back to stay.
catseyes3456 Bubbles made some formaldehyde vials for that dope fiend that robs him everyday. He never thot his son was usin' too so he just had the vials out on his nightstand. Well. Sherrod left bubbles some cash, he must of took the vials for himself, bubbles wakes up to a dead son.
@TubeGuest5178 It wasnt his son, it was his dope partner. How did he not know that he was using? He even knew Sherrod was dipping the drugs a bit, Bubs wasnt carefull with the hotshots as he shoulda been. Sherrod jusr went through B's coat. The cash was Sherrods earnings, Bubbles was happy that Sherrod got the count right...
@TubeGuest5178 dude he def knew sherrod was using as well. lol the cash was from the shopping cart shop that bubs ran and that was the money from his earnings. and thirdly sherrod was just some random kid not his son although they had kinda like a father son relationship
Sherrod isnt Bubbles son, Sherrod is Bubbles nephew - and hes 16 almost 17 - he has only used several times (as he is more into being a corner boy, whom Bubbles took in and wished would go back to school) As far as the vials, those were (obviously) either 20s or dimes of what looks to be coke - that he cut with sodium cyanide (he talked about formaldehyde with the niggas in the previous scene but went with the cyanide after finding out where to purchase it.
Bubbles had to live with this one alright
