>1. The "This is not your fault" speech by Rawls to McNulty.
>Didn't see this mentioned. Maybe you did.

yeah, in the span of one episode, The Hunt, Rawls went from being an annoying curmudgeon--did i just use that word?--to being a great character. he basically owned that episode.

"gaping asshole" <--he said that too.

>2. McNulty and Bunk get D'Angelo to write a letter. Never gets
>mentioned, but this is one of my favorite cop interragation
>scenes. Played so masterfully.

10. A CITIZEN'S DEAD

>3. The Bird arrest. Showed the team coming together and not
>acting like a bunch of fuck-ups anymore.

i was keeping a running list of the moments and this was one of them, because i of course didn't end on an even 25. but it got knocked off, call it an honorable mention. that was one of Lester's finest moments. he yelled "hey shorty", threw the 40 down with a crash, and then put a good one on Bird.

another memorable scene was later in interrogation, when's Fredro Starr calling everyone a "bitch dyke cunt", Daniels comes in and rips up the Polaroid that had previously been taken to document the number of marks on Bird's body and face. that was a good look for Daniels.

>4. McNulty shows up at Pearlman's door for a booty call.
>"You're such an asshole, McNulty."

ehhh

>5. The crew tries to move a desk. You might have mentioned
>this, but I didn't see it.


yeah, a nice lighter moment.

the Sgt. telling his Layla Kaufman nipples story to Rawls was a similar good one.
