Description
“Every parent in this is, in their own way, a predator.” -Jeb LundOn the latest pod, writer and co-host of the It’s Christmastown podcast, Jeb Lund joins Matt and Vince to dissect The Wire season four episode ten, “Misgivings.”Alternate title for this episode: “Misgivings: Bub’s revenge.” Bubbles finally gets Herc back for walking him into a savage beating in the last episode by siccing him like the rabid dog he is on a clergyman who is definitely not a drug mule. It’s a real double whammy for Baltmore’s most industrious junkie, because the priest who gets unnecessarily roughed up by Herc was also sort of a dismissive jerk to Bubs. That’s what you both get for being mean to our little Bubby guy. Not to be outdone, Chris Partlow gets revenge on someone who likely did some terrible things to him when he was young when he lays a savage beating on Michael’s implied pedo stepdad. This has to be a Dennis Lehane inspired storyline, right? That guy loves to punish fictional child predators. He should start one of those Youtube channels where amateur pedophile hunters lure sickos to a Jack in the Box to humiliate them on camera. Maybe he can work something out of his system.
