Prodigal son. Major, we got a good shotat clearing a couple of cases here. We're not here to talk cases.I don't care about your cases. Sit. Relax. I'm a reasonable guy.

Because he knows me to be reasonable, he came in a few weeks agoand reasoned with me. Right, Jay? We reasoned. We did. We reasoned thatdespite his negligible Irish ancestry, and a propensity to talk out of turn,Jimmy mcnulty is a good worker. Probably worth saving. - Major, I'm not...- He's a good-looking kid

Told from the points of view of both the Baltimore homicide and narcotics detectives and their targets, the series captures a universe in which the national war on drugs has become a permanent, self-sustaining bureaucracy, and distinctions between good and evil are routinely obliterated.
