@robkaos What the hell are you talking about??? Also even if he was gay, all his good qualities, the way he takes care of his lil bro get ignored because he's gay? Is that how you would treat a gay person in real life, even if he was an upstanding respected member of your community who looked out for troubled youth's? If so SMH!!! -_-
he's a pretty good dude, but this scene is how he's ignorant to Dukie's needs because he's so focused on Bug. Dukie needs for people he trusts to give him an atmosphere in which he can flourish, and while Michael does that, because Dukie's good with Bug, he also doesn't take into account Dukie's self-respect and what it would look like to other people. Michael basically makes Dukie his bitch in this scene and doesn't even realize it
@sammythemc dukie doesnt even know what he wants, he's just there. it was better for him to be a toddler sitter than get bitched around on the corner.
he has everything he needs to make something of himself, and what does he do? nothing.
@sammythemc I think there is more to it than that. Agree he is helping Bug, but I think this is actually more about him helping Dukie. He realises that Dukie is not cut out for the corners (ie Spider refusing to give him the count) and knows he has to take him off.By telling him that he does not need to work the courners and is doing enough to get paid, he is trying to soften the blow of simply sacking him. Michael is cold but a realist- yes he hurt D's feelings but overall it's for his benefit.
Ya, I said for kids in the ghetto they dont get that much for slinging in that part of town, oh yeah this was 2 weeks ago so please leave old comments alone I don't even watch The Wire anymore.

Dukie wanted to establish a life for himself outside of graduating from HS, taking care of Bug and being Michael's best friend.
