Explicații TMDb: The wire begins to yield information about the Barksdale organization, though finding links to the top proves elusive.

Explicații Wikipedia: Mouzone tortures Dante for Omar's location and confronts him. Cutty secures funding from Avon and holds a match with another gym. His students are beaten, but he commends them, particularly Justin, for their effort and attitude. Royce temporarily leaves Hamsterdam and Burrell suspects he is planning to blame the BPD. He asks Carcetti to pass the story to Gray, hoping he can use it to beat Royce. Carcetti talks to Colvin to get the full story, who shows him Hamsterdam. D'Agostino pursues McNulty, who rebuffs her when he realizes she is looking for dirt on Colvin. McNulty uses a machine that records cell signals and sets it up outside Stringer's business to get his number. Terrance Fitzhugh secures a quick wire by claiming to the FBI that Stringer is linked with terrorism. Levy tells Stringer that Davis is known for pocketing bribes, and the detail records him planning to kill Davis over the phone. Stringer gives Colvin Avon's address to end the war, while Mouzone threatens to cut off Avon's drug contacts unless he gives up Stringer. He relays Stringer's meeting with Krawczyk, where Mouzone and Omar reveal that Avon gave him up. A resigned Stringer allows them to kill him.
