Complete story — includes the ending
Epigraph: "Just cause they're in the street doesn't mean that they lack opinions." - Haynes Vondas gives Marlo a phone as he takes over for Joe. He gives the number to his attorney Levy, and Herc, working as Levy's investigator, jots it down. Omar breaks into Monk's apartment but is ambushed by Stanfield men, jumping from a balcony to escape. Bubbles is upset when he tests negative for HIV, feeling he deserves worse. Davis begins a campaign to frame his charges as racially motivated. McNulty tells Gutierrez about the bites and her story draws more attention to the case. He and Freamon fake a phone call from the killer, and the story makes the front page when Templeton fakes his own call. Carver receives Marlo's number and passes it to Freamon, who obtains a wiretap on the killer and uses it on Marlo instead when Daniels refuses to pursue him.
