Bunk confronts Omar about Tosha's death, how the game has changed, and how the kids glorify him. One of the great bench scenes The Wire always has.

  • @supersaiyanjax93 I love your wording. Good shit and I agree.

  • Loved this scene. Was perfect forshadowing to Omar's death. Cause the kid that was dressed up pretending to be him ended up being Kenard, the same kid that shot him dead in the store. And just like Bunk said, he was one of those kids that glorified Omar without really knowing what it took to do the things he did. Kenard thought when he killed Omar, a sense of acomplishment would come with it, but instead he was shaken to his very core. Another young life wasted trying to be something he wasn't.

  • @thebunk231 What the kids are glorifying is Omar's way of robbing and killing. They don't know shit about Omar's moral code. So when these kids grow up, they gonna try to act like Omar, but what you really have are a bunch of sociopath who thinks they can rob and kill just anybody. Bunk is saying there used to be a reason for each body that was dropped, but soon innocent people would be scared to come out of the house

  • Best.

    Show.

    EVER.

  • @thegreeniydbandit he wasn't "trying" anything, he was sending a clear message. he remembers the neighborhood used to have guys way tougher and meaner than the kids he sees shooting each other today. he knows omar is younger, but remembers that time as well to some extent. the message sent was "not only am I not scared of you as a 'killer', I don't even respect you."

  • I'm not sure that King or Malcolm could have said it better if they were with us today. There really was a community back then, and kids are too young now to even know what a civilized neighborhood looks like.

  • Everyone who watches the show (myself included) loves the character of Omar. But what this reminds the viewer is, that no matter how cool and badass Omar is, he still robs and kills. He is not a good person, he may have a stronger moral code than most of the people in the game, but he is still a criminal. The kids who act like Omar, "glorifying his ass", is what makes Bunk sick. Thats why this, to me, is the most important scene in the show.

  • @predator706 And yet you just mentioned him yourself hahahaha

  • Bunk's in the backround, in the past, and around him is the healthy, lively green Baltimore. He's condemningly watching Omar who is in the foreground of the shot, in the present day. Omar is half in shadows and around him the building, Baltimore itself, is deteriorating. The colour of the building is that of dry blood.
