It was a very good episode, don't get me wrong, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't just a bit disappointed. Seeing the episode's rating, I knew something was going down in this one, and there was some excellent tension throughout the episode. Exchanges between Omar and Brother Mouzone were suspenseful and they have a unique chemistry. When they finally got Stringer, though, I can't help but feel like it was kinda anticlimactic. It wasn't a ceremonious death in the slightest, and I think the show would've betrayed itself if it had made it so, so I don't blame them. However, one of the top dogs went down, and it's not like we couldn't see the death coming (I thought String would get Avon first actually, but as soon as they got the wire on String I should've known it'd be him instantly). Again, this was a very good episode with, as usual, great writing, but man I just wish his death had felt more fulfilling
