WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD RIP Robert F. Colesberry who directed this great episode and who tragically died before the team began production on season 3. As a swan song of a person who spent decades honing his craft with incredible filmmakers, this work communicates why he was such a valuable asset to David Simon and Ed Burns and Willy and Jacob dissect some of the directorial decisions he made to benefit not only this episode, but the series as a whole. We wrap things up on the dock with "Port In A Storm" as the IBS and the detail have to deal with the catastrophic fallout of Frank Sobotka's murder. Meanwhile, Omar continues on his search to find the truth about the little setup that Stringer Bell orchestrated. We also make time for some hilarious online reviews we found about the Motel that Nick and Amy stay at after they're moved into the Witness Protection Program.
