The Wire

Yesterday i prepared myself 4 what was supposed 2 be the highlight of my week and that was 2 watch the season finale of season 5 of The Wire. Although i hate 2 see it go i really was looking forward 2 what was gonna happen next i had prepared all of my snacks got my drink had my kids settled with a movie and snacks then turned the volume up on the tv locked the door and turned the cable 2 on demand only 2 find out that they would not be showing the finale until march10th ill be damned. So since we have some time we may as well recap all that has been going on this season thus far for all you avid wire followers like myself. Ok we have Mayor Carcetti making all of these major budget cuts in the police dept meaning no overtime or good cars or equipment,McNulty creates a fictional serial killer which forces the mayor 2 give overtime,McNulty enlists the aid of Freeman who becomes actively involved in the serial killer charade and puts up a unauthorized wire on Marlo Stansfield and his crew,Bunk knows about the serial killer and is not happy about it and stays with his real work and distances himself from McNulty,On the streets Omar is busy robbing and killing Marlos people because they killed his oldhead the blind man from the bar in order to bring him out of hiding,So now he is wilding out and calling Marlo 2 the streets while Chris and Snoop are racing around 2 find him while keeping hush about what he is going around saying,Omar and 1 of his homies try 2 get Chris and them and have a shoot out in an apartment building where Omars partner gets killed and he is cornered but he manages 2 escape by jumping out of a window,Snoop is checking hospitals looking 4 Omar who was actually still in the building hurt reseting a broken bone in his leg and making a makeshift crutch and out continuing on his mission 2 get Marlo,In a crazy twist ultimately Omar is killed by Kenard a lil hopper about 12 years old in the store buying smokes,Freeman makes the call and they move on Marlo and get his whole crew,McNulty lets Kyma in on what is going on about the killer and she is very unhappy about it,While things begin 2 get really out of hand about this killer McNulty decides 2 abort the whole thing but he still has a lot of officers that are relying on him because he was passing out a lot of overtime,While behind bars officers pull up old DNA from Mikes stepfathers body that goes back 2 Chris and bring the evidence 2 him although neither Chris or Marlo think that Mike is snitching Marlo feels it would be safer if they knock Mike off,So now there is a hit on Mike and he is on the move he takes the money that he has saved and takes his lil brother 2 a aunts house and leaves him there with the box of money and says goodbye and he takes Dookie and lets him be on his way,Snoop approaches Mike about doing a hit with her since chris is locked up but its a setup and Mike is hip so he has her pull over so he can take a leak and gets the drop on her and kills her b4 she gets to get him,back at the precint Kyma cant handle the pressure and tells on McNulty so now we are up 2 date check back after the finale and lets rap it up.......Chaos
