Question About The Wire Season 3. Contains HUGE spoiler!
Discussion
If you really want to know...
Avon gives him up because he believes he's too weak to keep the gang going & has become too involved in going legit, to counter this, Stringer reveals he had D'Angelo killed & irreperably damages their relationship. Avon eventually betrays Stringer just as he does it back to him, but Mouzone gets there first. I've left a lot out, but that is the bones of what happens.

That has cleared up what I thought very nicely, thankyou to both of you.
I am currently re-watching series 4. There is something sinister about the Marlow character that puts him above them all, he is chilling to watch. The scene where he has the encounter with the security guard shows how evil he is. Great show, as always.

I always thought that Snoop was the worst character in terms of being completely nonchalant about death.I am currently re-watching series 4.

Chris Partlow always struck me as worse than Snoop, but I'd accept it's fine margins between any of the characters in The Wire.
Marlo Stansfield though? He's an allegory for evil, completely devoid of any form of morality, remorse or introspection, just a machine serving his own ends. He doesn't even flaunt his wealth - at least with Avon, it was a means to achieve a lifestyle.

Jamie Hector absolutely NAILED the character. As said, he played it so low key, but the menace was coming out of every pore!I am currently re-watching series 4.
