Wait until you see the Roberts' Rules of Order scene in season three.
c) My love for Omar cannot be textually rendered.
"I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase. It's all in the game, though, right?"
A scene that will live forever.
d) There's something sublime about McNulty using his powers for evil.

And he'll continue to do so throughout season three, bless his wicked Irish heart.
e) Kima? Made of awesome.
"Sometimes, things just gotta play hard."
And she knows how to rock a baseball cap.
Still...no mention of Bunk? Where's the love for the Bunk?

Oh, I have love for Bunk. I love to watch him work and communicate with various iterations of "fuck". And there ain't much better than a grumpy Bunk shaking his ass.
