Summary
Season 2 of The Wire introduces us to the Greeks, an enigmatic organization involved in all kinds of illicit business, including—but not limited to—human trafficking for prostitution and the wholesale distribution of heroin and cocaine. We only see bits and pieces of their operation, but the little we do see makes two things clear: the Greeks are in the big leagues, and everything with them is business. Always business.
Well, almost always.
This work analyzes the the oft-overlooked relationship between Spiros and Nick over the course of Season 2.
The first chapter focuses on episodes 2.01 through 2.06; the second, on episodes 2.07 through 2.12. The third chapter explains the coding system I use throughout the work and provides a timeline of relevant scenes with dialogue and plot summaries.
