What is the plot?

The episode opens with the Barksdale detail reviewing their surveillance intelligence. Prez demonstrates an unexpected talent for decoding the drug crew's coded messages, allowing the team to pinpoint a resupply time. Herc, Carver, Sydnor, and Greggs execute a carefully planned arrest of the package carrier, Kevin Johnston, but deliberately let Stinkum escape to avoid compromising the wiretap. Stinkum immediately pages Stringer Bell from outside the towers, prompting Sydnor to rush over and photograph him returning the call, which legally permits the police to monitor Stringer's phone conversations.

At the police station, during interrogation, Prez recognizes Kevin Johnston as the boy he blinded in one eye, creating an awkward moment. Daniels appeals to Johnston, encouraging him to contact the police if he ever wants to change his life, but Johnston mocks the offer. Meanwhile, McNulty and Assistant State's Attorney Pearlman meet with Judge Phelan, who agrees to support the detectives' efforts. Phelan expresses surprise that Daniels defended the wiretaps and worries McNulty no longer trusts him after the Gant murder case became public. McNulty admits he currently trusts no one.

Daniels attends a fundraiser with his wife Marla, where they encounter Deputy Commissioner Burrell and State Senator Clay Davis. Daniels finds himself alone in the kitchen with Davis' driver, Damien "Day-Day" Price, who is eyeing the house's valuables and speculating about burglarizing the home until Daniels reveals he is a police officer.

Back with the detail, Bunk questions Omar about other murders, learning more about a cold case on Detective Santangelo's docket. Omar also provides information that leads to Bird's arrest. Bird is defiant during interrogation, even when confronted with ballistics evidence linking him to the murder of Gant, and is beaten by several officers.

The arrest of Kevin Johnston and other police actions have the Barksdale organization on edge. Avon and Stringer become suspicious and Stringer orders the crew to tear out all the payphones in the low-rise projects, forcing them to walk further distances to make calls. This change disrupts the detail's wiretap operation.

Meanwhile, Wallace is absent from the crew, spending time high in his home, staring at the spot where Brandon was found, indicating his life is unraveling. Avon questions D'Angelo about a possible snitch in the pit, but D'Angelo denies the possibility.

Rawls pressures Detective Santangelo to either find dirt on McNulty or solve one of his open murder cases. Santangelo initially consults a gypsy as a joke but ultimately Bird's arrest helps close one of his cases.

Kima Greggs helps Johnny get an early release from jail, with the condition that he attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings, which Johnny resists, though Bubbles discovers Johnny is actually attending.

The episode ends with the detail making progress in the investigation but facing internal and external challenges: McNulty is humiliated by Rawls' vendetta against him, the Barksdale crew adapts to police tactics by changing communication methods, and the personal struggles of characters like Wallace and Johnny are highlighted. The episode's title, "One Arrest," reflects the strategic but limited police action that sets off a chain of consequences for both sides of the drug war.
