Description
WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD McNulty turns to drunken debauchery and promiscuity in a painful reaction at his failed attempts of rekindling romance with his wife, Elena. The detail makes the case to Pearlman for a wiretap citing the evidence of Nick's drug dealing. Seeing how McNulty is rapidly approaching rock bottom, Freamon and Bunk desperately plead with Daniels to get McNulty involved in the case, knowing that he isn't functional without good police work to keep him busy. Ziggy is pissed that Nick is cutting him out of the drug business, pissed at his father's continuous shunning, and pissed that his coworkers are goading him into picking fights with Maui that he's so clearly not cut out for. So naturally, he decides to double down on his status with the IBS as a clown and purchases a duck who becomes his drinking buddy. Frank's flagged phone bill makes him very suspicious and brings him to the realization that he's now a full-fledged criminal. Bodie is forced to take measures into his own hands when business becomes slow. Thank you for listening everybody. Be sure to give us nice reviews and five-star ratings on itunes.
