Daniels and his team try to corner the Greeks, whilst Frank's world crumbles.
This is a compelling episode with a mostly excellent plot and memorable character moments.
Frank Sabotka is key to this story and his portrayal by the writers and Chris Bauer is riveting throughout.
Similarly, the police, FBI, State's Attorney's pursuit of the Greeks and port union has some of the show's most thrilling moments of investigation and pursuit. You do though have to suspend your disbelief and accept that these authorities would repeat a similarly grave error they made in the first season. If you can get past this contrivance, it is a flawless episode.
Omar makes a classic appearance and his scenes not only define the character, but lay a lot of great foundations for what comes in later episodes. Michael K Williams is brilliant as always and shares a fantastic scene with Michael Potts.
There is no more I can say without spoiling, other than to commend all performances and the visual storytelling for making it so cinematic.
It's a 9.5/10 for me but I round upwards.
