    played. One of the obvious metaphors in this scene is the direct comparison between the pieces in the chess game and the players in the wire. The king is Avon and as D’Angelo says “The king stays the king”. No matter how much you do, no matter how many of the Kings enemies you kill or how much money you make for the organization you will never be king.
