Epigraph: "Dope on the damn table." - Daniels Greggs lies in critical condition and Bubbles is picked up after trying to page her. McNulty, unaware of his attempt to get sober, sends him to buy drugs and find the shooters. He names Savino Bratton, who rode shotgun with Orlando and Greggs to the buy. McNulty threatens to pull Levy's finances if he does not bring Savino in, who takes prison over informing. Wee-Bey kills Little Man on Stringer's orders and takes D'Angelo to an unknown location, leaving him terrified that he is about to be killed, though he is actually being asked to take care of Wee-Bey's apartment while he is in hiding. Burrell orders raids that Daniels tries to prevent to keep the Barksdales unaware of the wire, but Phelan refuses to help after being put back with the mayor. When Daniels tries to withhold locations from his superiors, they find out and he realizes there is a mole in the detail. As the raids occur, an unaware Prez misses a call where Wallace resolves to come back to Baltimore.
