Sergei & Vondas execute Sailor Sam

[seekisforme5]

Imagine a confrontation between Marlo and Sergei? That would be epic.

[trixter1996]

@seekisforme5 its happened, look up Avon in season 5

[weeleon81]

@seekisforme5 sergei was in jail and told marlo to fuck right off... until avon stepped in.. sergei put marlo onto the greeks,

[ProletarianTakeover]

@Ochjuboy The newspaper aspect of it was a little dull at times, but The Wire is the greatest show of all time.

[MsTrance1]

what language is this

[DevnMC]

@MsTrance1 Albanian

[sour8vein00]

it must take testicles to slit a mans throat, i think i would rather shoot someone

[18Boop]

* blood pourin on the floor *

" watch your shoes "

" ughh , he bleed 'ss like uh lamb "

Lmaoo

[ForeignerD]

Vondas sliced off his sailor sam's neck and what a alots of blood on the floor.

[callofdutypc]

I love the random guy standing against the wall.

"...I think I'll stay out of this."

[7eleven767]

can someone tell me wuts the thing the greek always carries in his hand wut is it wut does it mean

[1977RiSK]

@7eleven767 its called a Kombolói. Its a specificaly greek kind of worry or prayer beads. Hope that helps

[spaniardmale77]

@1977RiSK OMG, thanks dude. I thought i was going to have to go on a google mission to find that shit out since i seen it in 2 clips and was wondering about it. He forgets them when he leaves the hotel, and here.

[WiseGuy5674]

The "Greek" has to be sadistic just to want to be here...Why would he risk his ID to do something Vondas or Serge could have done ..Quicker even.

[Safo8888]

@WiseGuy5674 wrong.....did you watch the scene? Only the Greek would have gotten information out of him etc. The point of this scene was to show how intelligent and cerebral the Greek was.

[Propz74]

LOL...Borris did beat the shit outta him

[Whatisright]

wow. I feel for this guy and D'Angelo they had some slow deaths. Everyone else went quick.

[greekfreak2005]

The Greeks are Greek, the guys working for the Greeks are Ukrainian. Sam was Turkish but spoke Greek saying "please" in Greek. The way you can tell the Greek and Vondas are Greek is because of the side notes they say to each other, like at the end, The Greek asks Vondas if he is hungry and Vondas says yes, All while speaking Greek. 

[Krifko]

@greekfreak2005 So why did the Greek at one point (end season 2) say: "They know me as the Greek, but, of course, I am not even Greek"?

[greekfreak2005]

@Krifko Because he is talking about him having many passports from different countries with different names.

[fidias12]

@Krifko because a lot off greek people were born in minor asia or midle east and are not concidered greek citizens for example in turkey for the state they were orthodox christian turks with greek heritage!!!thats why he says im not even greek!!!!also some turks speak greek those in the coast line of aegean sea,when he saw the turkish flag tatoo he said a typical quote greek say about the turks the nose like a hook thing and they slatter..the others are ukranian and eastern eyropean

[ojonesjr]

@greekfreak2005 So just because you speak one language, that means you have to be from that country? I know Spanish ppl I work with that speak English.

[greekfreak2005]

@ojonesjr Its not just that, its the things they say in Greek and how they act. Im Greek but i speak Russian, Spanish and English, but I can tell their Greek for sure.

[magikozzz1]

@greekfreak2005 nai h patrida

[Safo8888]

@greekfreak2005 Your all over the place......"The Greek" says verbatim "And of course, I'm not even Greek". I would never say I'm not even American, or for that matter I'm not even Irish, or I'm not even French. Vondas probably is Greek, Sergei is Ukranian. The heroin dealer (forget his name at the moment) was middle eastern. The whole point of "The Greeks" is that they were a world enterprise, an N.W.O. if you will. Your username leads me ot believe you just want him to be Greek.

[Safo8888]

@Safo8888 Etan was the heroin dealer

[greekfreak2005]

@Safo8888 I understand that, but im looking at how they act and what they say that establishes them as being Greek, not just the language.

[7eleven767]

@greekfreak2005 i love this season so dey are greek all of em ??? i was always curious because in one eppisode the greek said im not even greek

[CrowServo3000]

that is such a brutal way to kill someone

[0utthe0ther]

greeks, russian, ukrainian, mongolian, marsupial, pteradactyl, polyamorous, martian, aaa battery, striped dirty sock, striped dirty sock with a hole, we can all agree at this point, theyre some cold and ruthless mothers.

[fran21ish]

Damm i'm slow, i just got it...they're not greeks, but Russians

[ligerhunter5223]

@fran21ish Wooooow, you ARE slow. All of the guys in this organization Eastern European or Middle Eastern of various nationalities. Spiros and The Greek are from Greece, the guy beating up the Turkish man is Ukrainian, i.e NOT FUCKING RUSSIAN.

[fran21ish]

@ligerhunter5223 ok thanks mr.wire..maybe next time i will take more time from my life like a loser, to learn more about the wire like you did..thanks tho.

[ligerhunter5223]

@fran21ish

Up yours. Its not like I've seen the series 50 times or anything, I just pay very close attention to it.

[fran21ish]

@ligerhunter5223 if you insist bra.

[ligerhunter5223]

@fran21ish I do.

[LadMastermind]

At first i thought the guy was a "vor" , it would've been more interesting if he was instead of a wannabe. The turkish tattoo was a huge mistake, if left out it could've been theorized they did business with them and made everything more interesting. Sigh, a turk.

[lildwayne21]

The Greek had a very uncanny sense of timing. His timing was flawless.

[Giorikas86]

@FizzyWodawg First of all im greek and i have born in former sovie union.The russian mafia was multinational but only from the nations that was in soviet union.NO TURKISH CYPRIOT IN SOVIET UNION! do you get this?

[Giorikas86]

then turk say:

-Se parakalo (plz in greek) to the russian.If he want to leave he will say in bad english plz dont kill me.The russian don't understant the greek word for plz ,but he is all day with the greeks and this world he will know it 100%.The screen for a greek viewer that knows the turks and the greeks and speak greek was bad.The episodes that show "The greeks" was writen by George Pelecanos who born in USA and he don't speak good greek.

[TheRoboNapkin]

Not Vondas, the Greek.

[surfin4]

this show is just sublime

[TheBlackDragon54321]

Man that Turk may have done the most boneheaded and damning mistake of anyone on this show. AND THAT"S SAYING SOMETHING!!!

You kill all those women just because you got frigging horny!??!! Idiot!!

[allieversayiswat]

WAT

[FuuKwon]

MURDER

[screwtheusername]

"He bleeds like a lamb" lmao The Greek says that with such contempt. I probably would've fell out of my chair if he spat after saying it, but he was too smart to do something like that.

[50Cent507]

lol yeah it makes perfect sense of course you can outrun a mercedes benz lol dumbass

[ss90ss444]

Is this how all greek and armenian gangster deal with their turkish crime partners?

[WarmBread123]

armenians look like turks, the greek looks european.

[WarmBread123]

the greek's accent is russian and he looks russian, at least in his dress sense (russian mafia tend to dress in long brown coats and fedoras) so it's possible he may be russian

[ss90ss444]

Yeah it does sound like the Greek is talking about the Ottoman Empire when he says it is not the old world it is the new.

[avonbarksdalewife]

Yes you are 100% correct. He was talking about the Ottoman Empire which is now Turkey. And he was refering to how the Turkish people committed genocide over the Armenian people. So I pretty sure he is Armenian.

[ss90ss444]

The Greek also looks a bit russian.

No. I don"t think the Greek is Germany. The Greek looks more like some old guy from the Balkans or East Europe.

[Trollmaster21]

The Greek once said he isn't Greek, which had me guessing what ethnicity he is.

[avonbarksdalewife]

Yeah I'm pretty sure he is Armenian. He was telling the sailor it not the old days. Refering to Ottoman Empire ( now Turkey ) committing genocide over the Armenia people.

[tomashize]

Ruthless bastards

[RequiemForABuckeye]

"Sergei my nigga!"

[TheJerseyChimpmunk]

br00tal

[allieversayiswat]

De Gweek.

[lildwayne21]

The Greek is very cunning

[junkyardt]

i love how the greek gets the dude to talk by giving him the impression he will let him go, but basically he is telling him he's going to kill him, without saying it in so many words. "after that, you're done. i give you my word." the dude spills the beans, then "relax, i gave you my word." hahah...you have to hand it to the greek, he wasn't lying. the dude was definitely 'done', just not in the way he thought.

[Nightowl358]

Season 2 was probably the most complex and intricate.

[Rema0nacirema]

@Nightowl358 And hands down the most boring

[Rema0nacirema]

@Nightowl358 and hands down the most boring

[fede018]

@Rema0nacirema your mom is boring

[JeanCocteau777]

What is so frightening about the Greek is the way he shows no emotion. He's always just calculating the money angle, and turning every situation to his advantage.

[groffo12345]

Yeah, the Greek and Marlo have that in common. Simply able to order peoples deaths without emotion. No wonder the Greek respected and saw potential in Marlo in S5.

[airkanada]

i dunno, i'd relate the greeks more to the barksdales than marlo if i had the choice. the greeks decided to let sobotka live until they had no choice. marlo had a choice with tons of people like little kevin and michael...but they decided to take the route of no risk, rather than taking the route of proof

[dontleademsomuch]

the baltimore niggas are bad but types like the greeks, east-european etc are a different league altogether. that guy eton was israeli even! maybe ex-mossad psycho.

[DaRocker21]

The Russians ain't no joke.

[Alara0625]

Vondas is the epitome of a gangsta. Gangsta and a gentleman

[Lexd1989]

All of the street characters I liked. They had very likable personalities, and you liked/disliked them from time to time. Vondas and "The Greek" though, man, they were just rock hard criminals. They took no shit D:

[oyinladethapimpwith9]

The Greek looked like Don Corleone at 7:09

[syzyer89]

poor sailor sam he didn't deserve to die it wasn't his faults the whores died but he should have just own up to his mistake before he got his neck slit

[Bonitaymorena]

The whore died? They were human beings!! Some of those women probably got sold into the sex slave industry though trickery thinking they were going abroad to work or get an education and had their passports taken from them. It happens so much people from their home countries take advantage of their hopes for better lives in the UK and the US. He got what he deserved!!! How can you let people hurt women like that? Even if their prostitutes some of them were forced or raped and kidnapped.

[oyinladethapimpwith9]

i remember i loved this scene to death when i first saw it....

[Trollmaster21]

Anyone know what race The Greek is? I think Armenian with his line about nothing against the Turks....that's the old world.

[Wobbothe3rd]

The Greek is referring to Greece's beef with Turkey, not Armenians

The Greek probably isn't Greek but he tries to let everyone think he is

I'm guessing German, as the other assassins hired very late in the season are german, also he looks german.

[avonbarksdalewife]

Naw he is Armenian, he was talkin shit to the dude cause he's Turkish. He was referin to the old day pretty much talkin about the Turkish people committed genoside ove the Armenian people. I'm pretty much sure he's Armenian.

[avonbarksdalewife]

He's mos def Armenian. Lots of people confuse Armenian and Greeks. But I pretty sure when he said it not the old world. Talkin about how the Turkish people use to do the Armenians.

[fyckthissht]

but bear in mind greece along with the rest of the balkans in general has grievances with the turks because of the ottoman empire.

[lildwayne21]

Damn, Vondas doesn't sweat anything

[ojonesjr]

Spiros Vondas is a beast!!! I like how him and "The Greek" are always calm in every situation.

[saladin245]

The Greek remains mysterious throughout the series. Interesting how he speaks so many languages.

[SteveElMonk86]

My favorite lines from this scene -

Sergei: Don't try to play the tough guy. I'm not the one getting my ass kicked.

Hahaha, that line was always funny to me.

The Greek: He bleeds like a lamb.

He says it so ruthlessly.

[nnsiio]

What did Sergei flash the guard? Some sort of fake cop credentials? Or his passport?

[wiltsu]

Some sort of fake cop ID.

[endlessnice]

I love the scene where Bunk watches the security tape of this--"Oh. Oh, I think I just peed myself."

[membersonly25]

"he bleeds like a lamb" - the greek

[raskell90]

i wish they did this to marlo

[groffo12345]

They very well may do this to Marlo at some point.

[SrBeardsly]

@raskell90 your gay

[JeanCocteau777]

@raskell90

Marlo was too smart. They recognized him as one like themselves.

[Safo8888]

@raskell90 it must suck to be a Marlo hater and watch this show......he fuckin dominated.

[aharris82]

Damn, that shit was brutal!
