Ah, to relive that first time feeling. Yeah, that scene broke my heart. But I enjoyed seeing how things change after that character's absence and on rewatches was really left wondering whether his way of doing things would've survived the changing reality on the street. It isn't a cheap act, there are good narrative outcomes...
I love the show so much because even though that character's departure left a hole, there are so many other well-written, compelling characters that I never felt like it impacted the enjoyability of the show.
Imperfect, train wreck characters who are so damn compelling.
