    The issue with the camera is that Herc took it without his lieutenant’s permission and set up surveillance without a warrant. It wasn’t just about the cost of the camera, it was more about that the camera was valuable enough that *somebody* would notice it’s missing, and when that happened Herc would have to admit what he did.

    The actor who played Colonel Raymond Forester passed away in real life from cancer. That’s why they wrote in the character death, as sort of a tribute to the actor.

      Yeah, she's the one who's shown on screen when Prez says "he wants to be fair and distribute.." in the opening minute of the episode. Also shown shaking her head and holding her chin after Prez says "A, 4"

    Those arrests were beyond absurd. The first guy on the bike, the cops know the corner kids will spot them, so they offer to pay a guy on the street to buy it for them, and then they arrest him. He's not a drug dealer in any way, except they talked him into getting it for them.

      One thing that always bothers me is the subtitles always say n^^^er instead of n^^^a which always bothers me because the only characters who use the er are the white characters which is to imply some type of racism. And of course stringer bell on occasion says it. But we know it's because he's British so it's understandable

    This episode, I really do believe exemplified the cold hearted nature of Snoop. They go from burying some New York drug dealers they just killed to casually asking Chris is he wanted to eat some Chinese food. As though the act of killing and hiding a body was nothing out the norm. This showed how dark some hearts could be from the streets. For some of them taking a life is as natural as an action as eating a meal when you are hungry.

    LATE: So during Carcetti's Eastern ride, the guy on the bike was asked to pick up drugs for someone else. Be the middle man between taking their money to buy straight from a corner boy to deliver it back. Then the biker said "y'all lazy... the dude was right there" and then the cops arrested him for that.

    Velchek has Rank and experience. Herc took the Camera under false pretenses. With a C.I. as his probable cause, and there is no such informant.
    Herc is trying to clean up by getting Marlo on something.

    Season 4 is great but its SO emotionally draining to sit through. Such heavy stuff.
    WIRE TRIVIA: The actress who played Teresa (Carcetti's campaign aid he almost had "relations" with the night Royce conceded the election) was actually pregnant, and gave birth, during the filming of season 4. That's why we didn't see her torso alot, and she was wearing loose fitting shirts.

    Season 4 is an illustration of how some are unfit for police work, no matter the rank they are able to achieve. Herc can't see the forest for the trees and makes so many bad choices because he does not have the right temperament or instincts. Walker -- the thieving cop who took Randy's money and Marlo's / Omar's ring -- is just as criminal and depraved as the so-called "bad" guys.

    I would like to note that what rawls is saying isnt technically wromg. But he is trying to play into race too much. We as the audience knows he is just as guilty of playing status games.
    Hes trying to play into a assumed veiw point he thinks tommy might share. The fact that tommy is a Italian who ran on crime policy. Usually these type of people also believe in affirmative action being a big issue and rawls is using it as a negative to say that its because people are picked for rank because of race and this is why the department is so fucked up.
    We know this is kinda true for Burrell even tho you could argue this isnt that true because when the show started a white man was the police commissioner.
    Luckily tommy doesn't fall for it because rawls is in the second highest postion. If he made it too this level. Logically he would have had to be part of the problem. Usually people who succeed in a broken system usually take part into the problem. They wont promote someone who actually fights against the system. You see that with danials who while hes played the game. He actually puts in the work instead of being a follower of higher ups like rawls

    Your talking about Marlo in the park. Marlo is from the Westside of Baltimore.
    Which is a small City itself. There are a handful of places he could go. First even if hes in the Park, there's no drugs or illegal activities going on around there. Even if there vicious they have rules.

    I told you all the storylines this season were on point. I'm sure others will explain the Herc situation to you so I'll leave that to them but personally for me I actually really enjoyed Marlo messing around with Herc 😂😂😂 Even though I don't like Marlo it was so so satisfying watching Herc fail over and over LMAOOOO their feud is honestly one of my favorites in the show tbh. Marlo is such a great villain. Only one more episode until that final stretch. God bless 🙏
