wallace - the wire

[GallowsComedian]

Wallace was one of the few criminals who you could actually feel sympathy for; he was really just a kid who had to shoulder impossible responsibilities.

[Malaika120]

Wow! This scene is eye-opening every time I see it. This show was amazing! The writing is outstanding!

[Ryz0n89]

god I fucking love this show.

[tibiasuckness]

One of the best scenes in television history.

[Sdollas1]

Count be wrong they f* you up. AMEN.

[dingdongpingpong69]

can somebody explain something i don't understand:

what are wallace and poot doing with all those kids in the squat? are all their mothers drugs addicts, so not able to take care of them? why do wallace and poot take care of them? because all those kids work for the barksdale org?

[SunRys1]

@dingdongpingpong69

All those kids are orphans. Probably cause of the same bullshit, that Wallace, and Dukie go through. Wallace takes care of them, cause he's... well fucking Wallace. Also some of the kids apparently work for Barksdale when they count money, as stated in the end. Count be wrong they fuck you up.

[dingdongpingpong69]

@SunRys1 thanks for the explanation

[Atomdude]

Funny, Prezbo and Wallace are alike, in hindsight.

[youngnso504]

wallace wasnt shit, he was a dope fiend , and dat dope turn yu into a zombie, he wanted to die

[SuckaTribe]

even though he died in the 1st season , when i was watchin the 5th season i still missed wallace, d'angelo too when he died in the 2nd season. they died too early they were great characters. R.I.P.

[DaveScott69]

Yo String. Where's Wallace at? Where the fuck is Wallace? Where's Wallace, String? String! Where the fuck is Wallace? Huh? Stringer?!

[KCohere33]

It kills me what happened to Wallace. The kid was so smart, and still so much a child. What a waste. He didnt deserve what they did to him.

[Boobiiiie]

I freaking loved Wallace!!!!

[Floetry30]

i been looking for this scene forever

[SoSupaStarry]

Michael B. Jordan is so cute!!!! :)

[mztristanwilds]

he grew up to be so fine

[AxmxZ]

That is depressing as fuck.

[nice9008]

see i dont understand this. Theyre all so fucking smart but nooooo they're doing all this.

But im saying this because i've never been in their situation and never will. I may live in compton but ill never involve myself in that stuff. Besides it looks like you're just stuck in a fucking loophole doing the same thing over and over again just to buy more drugs. Can't upgrade the house or anything because everyone will know you're rich. Lose lose situation. It's sad

[johnnycage435]

@nice9008 plus goin through that being young could make you crazy

[TubeGuest5178]

Wallace got a big lump in his throat because through that brief exchange he realized from a lil boy that he better get his arse up and make sure that count be right (even during the TEST run!)

[MegaBabygirl30]

When wallace explained the math n" drug code", terms than the actual book problem, it was actually more understandable. Crazzzy!!!!!

[JadeMcfly2]

Lmao that shorty just made me look like O_o damn he right

[Pepotamo1985]

Wallace is such a sweetheart, a really intelligent, decent guy. His murder is absolutely harrowing, and made me despise Bodie intensely for the rest of the series, despite the fact he develops into a likeable character by the end and equally perishes in a horrilble manner.

D is one of my favourite characters in The Wire, again his death was brutal. A pity.

[TkDadon313]

he was in that movie hardball with keanu reeves

[34phillychick]

dammm he is ma fukkin husbandddd imma marrry that nigga one of these dayyys :):)

[tahthedon]

ohhh.. i get the message in this scene.

schools need to start fukin kids up.

[meatisdaman]

@tahthedon

well they used to. then they cried that child abuse nonsense.

[cs00024]

someone in my corrections class recently mentioned this scene when they were giving a presentation about how kids are gonna learn but the question is where......i was very disappointed when she asked if anyone had ever heard of the show and i was the only one who acknowledged that they had..

[olh1152]

if teachers were able to jack up the kids, then kids would always get it right, but they can't.

[avonbarksdalejr]

what a great scene. my kids saw it for da first time & laughed there ass's off.

"da count be wrong, dey fuck u up"

[htownhomie06]

"if da count b wrong, they fuck u up," LMAO, from the mouth of babes!!!!!! this exchange is so deep and so real and so sad on so many levels. this country basically pushes entire generations of bright, promising kids 2 the streets from jump & then got da nerve 2 wonder why they grow up not giving a fuck????

[lildwayne21]

What a great scene

[wandermusic27]

Well I guess the only fair thing to do now is to give teachers gats.

[TubeGuest5178]

hahahaaa that boi smart the book just not even remotely related to his struggle das be all.

[7714girl]

Dang the end of that scenes gave me chills!

[ButtCrackSally]

[bigfilmhat]

The Wire has these tiny little moments that are profound as hell!

[hustleking17]
