    He came at the king, and he missed.

    For being the leader of the organization, Avon has horrible situational awareness. Walked outside the club twice and didn’t even look to his right. Cmon

    It took wee bay all of one minute to drive to the diner, order the food, get it and come back just in time to save Avon 😂

    If Omar hadn't been so damn theatrical about the hit The Wire would have been soooo different. xD

    Back when you could step out of a club and have your choice of payphones.

    While stringer was the brains of the business, this scene exemplifies why Avon is the leader of the gang. Trying to be as covert as possible, he makes a phone call using the outside payphones in order to keep a low profile - he is in hiding for the majority of the time in the show - getting escorted with muscle everywhere he went. When Bey rolls up, you can see the neurons firing in his skull, instantly making the connection that this is a set up - Omar exploited a vulnerability in the communication system within the gang and Avon realized this right away.

    Omar waited too long to walk up on him. Also it was comical how far Avon leaped🤣
