I love this scene, Vic doesn’t talk back or mouth off to Aceveda. He knows right in that moment that it’s serious

The Shield is an absolute masterpiece, imo the best drama tv show in history. It had a great and captivating pilot, built up the tension throughout the seasons with interesting stories and characters, and wrapped it up with a perfect finale. If you’ve never watched this show, you should.

It does not get the credit it deserves as one of the best ever. My top 3 all time are The Sopranos, The Wire and The Shield.

@biasone9634 Ай бұрын

@@PatF3nis i think The Shield is better than both the "Wire" and "Sopranos" because "The Shield" sticks the landing. Last season of "Wire" got iffy and doesn't compare to any of the earlier ones, and Sopranos had dips throughout

Literally a sub plot of the whole series. They hated Vic and the way he did things. But when they needed something to get done they called on him.

@SevDergo I thought about that too. He's too self-centred to have that type of 'Good'. Han Solo (the original representation) is a perfect Chaotic Good. Scoundrel with the heart of gold that shoots his opponent first. There's nothing wrong with being Lawful Evil. It's the only 'evil' alignment I let my players be. (I DM games played in AD&D 1e, the alignments are important).

@@TheEldarGuy Mackey doesn't follow the law, he uses it to avoid negative impact to himself. But there are also many instances where he puts himself at risk to help others. He is not lawful, nor is he evil. Shades of grey.

I always thought it would have been better, and made more sense within the show, for this guy to be innocent and Vic to beat a false confession out of him. It's pretty easy to justify Vic here and I don't think that should be the case.

@grezdaed 7 ай бұрын

No, it would make sense for the guy to actually be guilty. It shows that the detectives were indeed correct that the guy knew where the kid was stashed but detectives were constrained by the law. I imagine this type of scenario happens frequently. The viewer can envision their own child being kidnapped and hoping a cop like Vic could save them. Vic's line of questioning was obviously his way to ensure the pedo was comfortable hearing that type of evil.

@MrRolyat98 5 ай бұрын

That was the constant source of tension for the show. The Captain wanted several things. One of which was he wanted to bust Mackey as corrupt because he thought it would help his career. But Mackey was too smart to get caught. But then the line between right and wrong gets blurred because the Captain knows that the little girl is dead if he does his job the right way, so he uses Vic as a resource. Someone who isn’t constrained by ethics. and in doing so corrupts himself. that's why he said "I need you".

@michaelanderson2881 7 күн бұрын

That's silly. The point of the show was to paint Vic as a moral gray area. Sometimes he did the right thing, sometimes not. In this case if he beat a confession out of a guy who is actually innocent, then the guy doesn't know where the girl is in the first place.

If the threat of violence and torture or actual violence and torture didn't work there was always getting the guy totally sheitfaced drunk that might loose the lips and spill the desired information. 72 hours of sleep depervation works well, so I have been told, but they didn't have the time to wait him out.

If he thought he was going to get any gratitude or appreciation, Mackey was sorely mistaken. But that's not the worst part. In a few years, Grady is going to get a new trial, a scrubbed clean slate, a full pardon, and a brand new life. The same applies to anyone that was busted by the Strike Team.
