At first I thought it was foreshadowing McNulty's death... but it turns out to be for Omar. He died alone. Nobody claimed his body. He didn't even get a wake. He had no family or friends. Empty life. McNulty got a second chance. He's lucky Beadie stuck by him.

What a goddamn scene. I wish this show never had to end.

@Paralyt1c most people do fear dying alone. not that you aren't right.

[Paralyt1c]

Who gives a fuck who shows up at my wake, i'll be dead.

The dialogue in this series is so fucking realistic. Like how Beadie can't find the right word @ 0:48. It happens all the time IRL, especially if you're upset, but you almost never see it on TV or movies. I love it.

actually cunt they did, in the last episode... he didn't die, but... they did show...

@nalbandian99 Marlo finally become what Stringer always wanted to be, a businessman; but what he really care is his name, he want to be respected and feared on the street, with his name recognized by everybody, as it happened for Omar, Avon Barksdale, Chris.

But when he come back to his corners, the guys there don't even know who he is.

[nalbandian99]

@Sgrat Humm ok , well done. And what have they want to explain when Marlo go back to streets with his suit ? Thank you for your answers

[Sgrat]

@nalbandian99 Well, actually Prezbo saw it, then it became obvious when Prezbo offered to bring Dukie at BCCC and he took a step back because he was lying, not to mention that he was too young to get a GED, he just wanted some money.

[nalbandian99]

@Sgrat Not very trustful because even Prezbo didn't see it....But how you have understood than Dukie was a junkie ?

Yes, i know Dukie is the new Bubbles, Michael the new Omar, Slim Charles new Marlo...

[Sgrat]

@nalbandian99 Did you believed him? I think it was pretty obvious that he was lying about that...you must be a very trustful person.

In the ending, Dukie is going to become the new Bubbles, sad thing but life goes like that, too.

[nalbandian99]

@Sgrat Yes ! and did you know than Dukie was taken money for buy heroin when he asks to Prezbo? I believed him when he say he needs money for his study.

Because it was a shok for me when i saw the ending montage with Dukie make a shot for him
