  • Lester said that the case should go federal. Bond decided he wanted to use the case to try to climb the ladder. I love the close up shot of the jury which happens to mostly be black people. Lester knew a Baltimore jury would be the type of people that would believe every word Clay davis says.

  • shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiit

  • clay davis isnt corrupt. he is just the regular politician.

  • Epic performance... Niggas should look this shit up and take notes Obama 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This might be in my top 10 Wire scenes. That's one of the greatest speeches in TV history.

  • I was gonna post a "...shiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeet!" but I can see someone - aw fuck it...

    Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee­t!

  • The "is he for real?!" look on Rhonda Pearlman's face is priceless.

  • Ah ayyyyym clay davis.

  • @mjonas10 Am I missing some major sarcasm there?

    Clay Davis embezzled that money straight up. There are no people asking for money for burials or bail outs (or at least not as many as they think) its a defense for explaining how and why the money was put into his own personal bank account. He knows he can appeal to the mostly black jury by appearing as a 'man of the people'

    unless of course you really were being ironic in which case I totally see what you did there!

  • All these fools need to get off Clay's back and let him continue his good honest work. It's like they think he's going to be the scapegoat for the whole damn machine or something.
