Motherfuck...

Det. James 'Jimmy' McNulty: You got yourself a hell of a case.
Moreland: Fuck you very much.

Det. William 'Bunk' Moreland: [on detail] A different look for our boy.
Off. James 'Jimmy' McNulty: Yeah, Perry Ellis, or something.
Det. William 'Bunk' Moreland: Now, how would a just-rolled-out-of-bed-looking motherfucker like you, know the designer?
Off. James 'Jimmy' McNulty: [pauses] Okay, I'm guessing.
Det. William 'Bunk' Moreland: It's a Joseph Abboud. He puts dark buttons instead of brass on his blazers. That's the Abboud signature.
Off. James 'Jimmy' McNulty: You know what they call a guy who pays that much attention to his clothes, don't you?
Det. William 'Bunk' Moreland: A grown-up.

Det. William 'Bunk' Moreland: [McNulty has trouble loading up the camera] Maybe you ought to set up an easel on the sidewalk and do a sketch instead.

:cool: :cool: :D :D
 
Probably my favourite scene in S1..D'Angelo teaching Bodie and Wallace to play chess...:

D’Angelo: See this? This the kingpin. Now he the man. You got the other dude’s king, you got the game. But he trying to get your king too.

Now the king, he move one space any direction he damn choose. Because he’s the king. Like this, this, this. But the rest of these motherfuckers on the team, they got his back and they run so deep he really ain’t gotta do shit.

W: Like your uncle.

D: Yeah. Like my uncle.

See this? This the queen. She smart, she fierce. She move any way she want as far as she want. And she is the go get shit done piece.

Wallace: Remind me of Stringer.

D: And this over here is the castle. Like the stash. Moves like this, and like this.

Wallace: Yo, the stash don’t move man.

D: C’mon yo. Think. How many times we move the stash house this week. And every time we move the stash, we gotta move some muscle with it, to protect it.

Bodie: True. Alright. What about these little bald-headed bitches right here?

D: These right here, they the pawns. They like the soldiers. They move like this. One space forward, only. Cept when they fight. Then like this. They be like the front line. Out in the field.

Wallace: How do you get to be the king?

D: It ain’t like that. See the king, stay the king. Aight?

Anything stay who he is. Cept for the pawns.

Now if a pawn made it all the way down to the other dude’s side. He get to be queen, and like I said, the queen ain’t no bitch. She got all the moves.

B: Aight. So if I make it to the other end, I win?

D: If you catch the other dude’s king, and trap it. Then you win.

B: But if I make it to the end, I’m top dog.

D: Nah, yo. It ain’t like that. But look, pawns man, in the game, they get capped quick. They be out the game early.

B: Unless they some smart-ass pawns.
 
God bless you sirs. In due course it will appear on the Streatham and Brixton Chess Club blog.

You reckon they might be influenced by Homicide a bit?

You'd imagine so given Simon wrote Homidice up to a decade before The Wire, Homicide being, therefore, his tv apprentiship.

Proposition Joe: I heard your end would be covering my fee.
Stringer Bell: Your fee?
Proposition Joe: Yeah, I'm like a marriage counselor. Tell the man he oughta bring the bitch some flowers every once in a while. Tell the bitch she gotta suck some cock every once in a while. That sort of shit.
[Omar arrives]
Proposition Joe: Speaking of cocksuckers...
[to Omar]
Proposition Joe: I'm Proposition Joe. You fuck with me, I'll kill your whole family.

:D
