It's a good scene, but I wouldn't say it's one of my favorites. It's one of the few misleading scenes from the show's 5 seasons. I remember thinking "WTF!?!?!!?" when I first saw it.
i know i did. i saw "scene from the wire" and i said "i dont know what scene but i know i love it" just actually watched the clip posted. very good scene but it definitely had me saying "what the fuck" while i watched it the first time
one of my favorite scenes my emotions went from worried to pissed to shocked to relieved to being in awe
