With Daniels in command of the Western District, the MCU is now led by Lt. Jimmy Asher, who is more interested in his upcoming retirement, and is effectively letting Freamon run the unit. Although they have wires on several of Marlo's people, they are surprised by the lack of bodies. What they don't know is when Marlo orders a hit, he does so in person, and enforcers Chris Partlow and Felicia "Snoop" Pearson take the victim to a vacant row house, kill them, cover them with quicklime and seal the vacant up. Following the Barksdale money trail, Freamon presses a reluctant Pearlman to issue subpoenas for financial records to several high ranking political figures - the very same territory that got the original detail shut down three years previously. Meanwhile, since the fall of the Barksdale empire, Bodie is operating as an independent dealer on a corner with little to no business. As Prez prepares for his new career as a schoolteacher, four friends, Michael Lee, Namond Brice, Randy Wagstaff and Duquan "Dukie" Weems enjoy the last few days of summer. Elsewhere, the mayoral election campaign between city councils Carcetti and Gray and incumbent Mayor Royce enters its final stages, and despite encouragement from his campaign manager, Norman Wilson, Carcetti is disillusioned about his chances of winning.

* PragmaticVillainy: When Monk Metcalf wants to kill everyone who works with Lex on the corner, Marlo of all people displays this trait by pointing out the corner is out in the middle of nowhere, and there's no need to rack up bodies when there's no crew fighting him, so simply killing Lex is ample enough.
