😔😔😔 this episode broke me. But perfectly captured the theme of The Wire for all these seasons.

Let's go

Barack Obama’s favorite show is The Wire and his favorite character is Omar. After you complete the show can you guys react to David Simon’s interview with the president where they talk about the show? Thanks! Loved watching the show with you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWY79JCfhjw

Kenard could kill Omar because Omar has principles, kids, citizens - off limits. He never would look at a kid as a threat. He even looked when he heard Kenard come in.

Dramatic Irony: remember in S3 when Bunk investigates the shootout where one of Omar's crew died and sees little kids playing "Omar" in the street? The kid who shouts "my turn to be Omar" is Kenard in his very first appearance. And when Bunk rips Omar on "how far we done fell" he cites seeing a kid playing Omar as a sign. These writers play the long game...

After The Wire, you should watch OZ. One of the best shows ever made

That final scene showed that even the normal man knew who Omar Little was.

Omar notice Kenard coming into the store and then let his guard down, it was the one time Omar ever truly let his guard down.

David Porter

No, that is not the same child. I’ve heard this rumor over and over throughout the years. It is absolutely not the same kid

David Porter

No, that’s not at all what that scene is meant to indicate. Omar meant so little to “real people / citizens“, they even mixed up the name tag. This guy happened to recognize it because some white guy who looks clearly Italian probably isn’t named Omar Little. The scene is meant to show you very clearly that despite him being a legend on the streets, the streets end at the street signs. He was just some guy, some robber of robbers. Nobody in the real world ever gave a fuck about him. Why would they?

I think it was more a sly way to keep his legend alive because he was thought to be dead before

Even though I was sad at Omar's death, it was perfect: killed by some kid who wasn't impressed when meeting him. Stripped of the mythological infamy, the kid just saw a regular person, as vulnerable as anyone else. Even more perfect was the mix up at the morgue. Though he was legendary on the streets (and with the audience), he was no one in other circles, almost buried as a middle-aged white man. I remember my first reaction to that scene being of shock, "how do you not know Omar?" But, of course, it makes perfect sense.

No-one is safe, violence is random, respect doesn't make you bulletproof, and even giants get done like dogs. If you expected Omar to make it because he's too cool to die, or go down in a blaze of glory like action movie, you haven't been paying enough attention to what show you're watching. Also, I noticed that the show might have made clear that Mcnulty's scam was totally pointless. They mayor's crew said they just got back good school results and now was the time to lower crime. So it might be that if Mcnulty had done nothing, city hall would have started putting money back into the police around now anayway.

"Kenard, whatchu gonna do?" --Pat, last week

Recall Season 4 episode 9 of the Wire. Omar and his boyfriend Renaldo are spying on Marlo from an abandoned building when Michael comes up to talk to Marlo about his home problem. When Renaldo essentially asks Omar if Michael is someone they should be paying attention to Omar takes a look at him, laughs, and says “he’s just a kid.” And the episode ends on those words. Who would have known that a season later, this “he’s just a kid” mentality from Omar would be the reason why he let his guard down in front of his killer. Omar’s principles served him well in the streets, but it also created a blind spot. I think that “he’s just a kid” episode ending moment from season 4 was great foreshadowing to his ultimate fate and helps explain why he was killed by kid he saw coming, rather than going out in a blaze of glory.

Another layer is kenards introduction I think was a scene of him pretending to be Omar while play fighting with some other kids ..
