He wanted penance, when this guy started offering him that “second chance” speech, he couldn’t handle it knowing Albert gave him the same choice by not killing/arresting him.
Nah I don’t think so. He just wanted to die, so he provoked the guard. The ocean sound is a callback to that “afterlife” he got a glimpse of last season.
I mean he’s literally slapping himself because he’s pissed that he wound up in jail. I guess there’s a chance Barry wanted “penance” but my guess is he meant what he said and just didn’t care about the consequences. For the rest of this season he basically says “fuck it” to all the consequences of his actions.
1:55 what's perfect about this monologue is Barry is almost looking directly at us, not just the guard. Definitely intentional from Hader's direction of the episode. After three seasons, no matter how much the audience can empathize and root for him, even Barry himself has made it clear at this point that he would willingly kill any of us.
That ocean noise is the same noise he heard when he was dying. Makes me wonder if that's where he went in his head. He tried setting him off so he can be put down.
Everyone is (justifiably) praising Bill’s performance but can we talk about the guy playing the guard. His nonverbal acting and body language is so subtle but effective.
Ya, I thought the same thing. When Barry says "I'm a cop killer." you can see how the guard's facial expression completely changes. I also like how Barry takes a deep breath after threatening his family. As the viewers, we know he doesn't really mean it and was just trying to get a rise out of the guard.
I truly don’t think Barry meant what he said. Barry just wanted to say the worst thing to provoke the attack. He wanted to be beaten to make him feel the pain for every character he hurt.
totally, but that doesn’t really matter. that could’ve been the moment that changed the guards life for worse. maybe he doesn’t try to help anyone again and becomes just like the others who treat them like shit. all because barry wanted to feel penance in an irresponsible moment.
It's really funny that the guard is so viscerally affected by Barry threatening his family. If you work in a prison, I imagine that mouthy prisoners threaten you with stuff all the time. But hey, maybe he busts out the baton all the time too lmao
Think it's the kind of never meet your heroes effect on him. It sounds dumb since he just found out who barry is this same episode but I guess anyone he sees on tv that he meets he's obsessed with meaning he really liked Barry for being on tv so he was like his hero but then Barry said this shit and it disappointed him
I don't think it was the entire family thing that made him go police brutality mode on him. I think it was just the late addition if his Mom. Bardwell is a momma's boy so you see his face change from dissapointment to hatred only at the end.
Though depending on the type of prisoner, such as if they’re a member of the Mexica. cartels and they threaten your family, there is a very real chance they’ll follow through on it.
Jail is both conducive to mental breakdowns and the worst place you can have a mental breakdown, becuase you’re surrounded by people barely holding it together
The thing I love most about this scene is the fact that Barry thinks he deserves to get beat up by this guard, accepting the beatdown as he closes his eyes and doesn't fight back
@@chaoticRodrigo I actually think the CO meant what he said. I feel like his feelings were hurt, and he basically kicked Barry's ass to defend his honor.
@@dylanwesley3964 but that's the thing, if that's all it took then he didn't mean any of it at all. this is maybe my favorite scene in the entire show. the show is about a lot of things but the shallowness and flagrant hypocrisy of people is definitely a major theme and this scene bottles that up so nicely. he knows barrys a killer, he knows barry has MURDERED people in cold blood and he wants to talk about forgiveness. and he's right, that's a good thing, but see how when it's him and his loved ones that are under theat (even as just words in a meaningless hypothetical) he immediately switches in the most brutal way possible? the guard doesn't actually give a shit about the people barry killed or about barry forgiving himself and being forgiven, those were just empty words to say because the cop didn't personally have anything at stake. and yeah barry just wanted to be punished and was lashing out, but i think he also knew that the guard was blowing hot air, it was almost a test. if the guard meant any of it, if his words carried any weight behind them at all, he would've said it again and walked away.
This is one of my favorite scenes on TV. Barry's self loathing over the life he couldn't escape. Lashing out when the guard tries to console him and cutting so deep he knows the guard will hate him too. That sigh after his monologue when he knows he succeeded and the calm as he accepts the beating he knows he deserves. Drifting in his thoughts after losing everything and looking for anything to hold on to, then Fuches is there again... That practiced smile in the beginning that sets him off, too. Wow.
The music that plays at around 4:30 when they’re just hugging on the floor, is the same music that plays at so many actual sweet moments throughout the show. Really dark and twisted, I love it.
Among all the things Barry is fantastic at, I feel the music doesn't get full credit and gets lost among the other parts of the show being marvelled at. The scoring of the series, and the soundtracks they choose are incredible.
The thing that also needs to be discussed is Fuches, for the first time ever in the show, demonstrating real concern and affection for Barry. Unless it’s an angle he was playing that I can’t figure out. Fuches has been all about himself up til now.
Nah, he's always just had a soft spot for Barry the day he met him...and also that he got his way and Barry said sorry after like 3 and a half seasons. When he thought Barry was killed, he was actually strangely sad and angered by it. But that always had a dark cloud looking over it because he kept mentioning that "Barry couldn't even say sorry to him!". I do really believe that Fuches does care for Barry, in his own sick ans twisted way that he sees that he is not causing mental anguish or is at least not at fault for it, much like how Barry sees his relationships with Gene and Sally. Fuches has always been an evil manipulator with a lust for power, but Barry was an actual innocent kid who was left scarred by what he had done that was slowly morphed into Fuches himself, besides the endless depression, murderous anger rampages and the hope for a better life. Those were just kinks that Fuches couldn't rough out. Overtime Fuches cared about Barry, and eventually maybe even regretted what he did, but it's to late now. He started this endless cycle of violence and manipulation that will continue though Barry and then whoever that he takes a liking to. He can't stop it now. All he can do is watch and wait until Barry finally gets angry enough to finally kill him. Tldr: Fuches was always a dick, but then made Barry a dick and then let Barry wriggle into that one teeny tiny piece of his heart. The rest of him is just about how he gets to be on top.
If it wasn’t for Gene setting him up he probably would have listened. What Gene did was entrapment and if it ends up in court, hopefully Barry’s case will get thrown out. Plus the weapon also belongs to Gene (it’s the prop one which he thought was real and tried to use it on Barry.) so that also points to Gene setting him up. There’s no evidence against Barry at all apart from the word of Gene and it makes what Gene did in the season three final episode look like he’s got some kind of obsession with Barry, not too mention that Gene took and spent the half a million dollars in cash that was Barry’s. If anything apart from him admitting to the guard in this scene there’s nothing linking Barry to anything. And I don’t think his former Marine friend who’s now a cop will say anything. If anything he’ll likely pick up on everything I’ve pointed out like he did when he joined the investigation, and will have a lot of questions for Gene!
@@MDK2_Radio what proof have they got that he’s one? Fuches isn’t talking, I doubt Albert will. Sally won’t because she was the one who actually ki11€d the last guy, Hank & Cristobal are definitely not going to out Barry because that will bring unwanted attention to them. Apart from him admitting here what he did to one person (the guards highly unlikely going to admit what Barry told him without having to admit what he did to Barry!) there’s zero evidence or proof that he’s involved. And it is entrapment what Gene did to him look it up. If anything everything that happened to Janice points right back at Gene. You think Albert isn’t going to question him regarding certain things. Like how did someone who was broke manage to get their hands on half a million dollars in cash and then spend it all? Why did Barry have his prop 🔫 that’s got his prints all over it? Why did he call Barry to get him to that exact location and then feed him a bunch of BS which caused Barry to try and protect him? It was a set up, it was entrapment and any decent lawyer (never mind a cop) worth their salt will be able to take all of this apart! We was watching the season three finale with a cop friend of ours (mine and my husband) and the first thing he said when Gene called Barry and told him where he was and what HE was going to do. Our friend said “Gene’s working with the dad to try and entrap him!” That was before Barry even asked where Gene was. The cops have nothing at all linking Barry to Janice or anyone else except for the words of one guy, but they’re got evidence that points to either Fuches or Gene as was shown in season two and three! Lawyers online who watched the final episode of last season have also said what Gene did was entrapment. So depending on how the rest of the season goes Barry will be walking out of jail at some point as shown in the trailers and confronting Gene and he’ll either be re-arrested, or have his life ended by either the cops, someone else or by his own hand. Bill has confirmed that Barry isn’t going to get away with what he’s done. I’m pointing to him having his life taken in some way because of the sound of the sea and beach that we first saw in season two, again in season three (which had an whole episode based around it) and have seen or heard again throughout both these first two episodes of season four.
I haven't seen anyone mention this but I cannot imagine playing this season of Barry has been easy for Bill Hader. Going to such a dark place for damn near every episode has got to take it's toll. Especially as the writer, director, he's completely engrossing himself in this and as respectable and admirable as it is, I truly hope he's doing ok
He's also attempted to earn forgiveness several times in the series, only to relapse and be thwarted by his own anger. The idea of someone offering trust is painful because he knows- or assumes- that it'll just end with him betraying that trust, so he leans into the reputation building around him of being a monster as a defense mechanism. Not unlike when he killed Jeff, even after his client told him to call it off.
That opening breakdown was so real. Staring at himself with utter hatred. Despising the person in the mirror. “Way to go! Way to go! Way to go! Way to go!” While time beating himself. The viscous sarcasm. Hatred of himself. Wanting to hurt himself as badly as he knows he deserves but never having the strength to actually kill himself, instead opting to come up with the most bitter, hateful, wounding truths he could possibly imagine. HIS actions put him here. The actions he choose to do. Actions he can never take back no matter how much pain he feels. It wont stop him from trying though. Maybe if he hurts badly enough he’ll escape the torment of hell but he knows he wont. A truly dark story.
Here we have 2 bad men. Barry and the guard. Barry throughout this show, has given us smiles and puppy dog eyes, only to hide a rage inside of him. We've seen this in the war flashbacks, and in his anger outbursts. There's a hate that is deep inside of him. He may long for a better life, to be a good person, but until he resolves what's inside he'll always be what he is. Every kind gesture every friendly act, was done in this show, out of some self centered desire. His relationship with Sally is manipulative and toxic. She manipulates him as well, but we know he's not completely blameless. He killed Chris. He killed Janice. He killed civilians in war. He's not a good man. Sure, he could learn to be better, but those people he killed never faced justice. He never answered for his actions. And I think that's what this show and Bo Jack Horseman have in common. When bad men try to start anew, without answering for their wrongs. No matter how much someone tries to change, if justice isn't brought to the victims of their behavior, they will always revert back until they're no longer able to get away with it. The guard here, is like Barry. I don't think he was trying to make a point that the guard was like him, I think he genuinely just wanted to be hurt physically a form of penance. But I think what we're seeing is Barry saw through the guard's kind words. He saw through the facade. Because the moment he disrespected him, he was met with brutality. Kindness for the guard was a means to an end, to get what he wanted. Just like it was for Barry. The moment that didn't work, both reverted back to what they new best.
This is a perfect analysis. But I also think we also missed his mother's quote. Barry was a psycho yes...but we see throughout the show that it wasn't his default. Just like I'm sure beating up on prisoners is the officers default.
and then we have fuches. who was able to apologize for what he's done to Barry and over the rest of the season. try to make it right. even diving on his kid during the shootout.
2:45 - The reuse of the ambient ocean noises and the giant metallic screech from S3 is interesting. Still curious what that represents. The gates of hell?
God no! They have an extremely toxic relationship. They need to stay away from each other as far as possible. Fuches is super codependent on Barry and Barrys life gets always worse when Fuches is involved.
Fuches is going to die horribly and it will be totally justifiable and kinda awesome.. Don't let this feigning concern for Barry's well being fool you. Fuches created Barry by recognizing his hollow soul and completely shattering what was left of it as a means of financial gain... He's a true weapon of evil and the biggest narcissist of all these unhinged characters. Losing Barry would simply mean the loss of a puppet to manipulate and have control over.
Damn, that display of guilt and the desire of punishment... When the blood started to come up I was like hooolay sht. This season had a great start, can't wait to see what's next
No one’s gonna talk about how this is the first time Fuches actually admitted that he took advantage of Barry, I don’t think he’s referring to anything other than taking him into the business of being a hitman and seeing Barry bleeding and suffering made him genuinely feel bad about his actions I think fuches even knew Barry let the officer beat him since he knows what he’s capable of
Barry is the kind of person that just needs direction and structure. He can’t choose that for himself, he follows or flows to whoever he lets guide him. It’s why he flourishes in any situation without understanding it. This journey is him starting to discover his own desire of control, while finding himself in so much shit for what he’s done. He knows he deserves suffering, he just wants to pay the cost and live calm.
The fact that Barry successfully antagonized Birdwell made me sad. Barry is obviously saying the worst possible things he can think of to get a rise out of the CO. Birdwell clearly came into this interaction with the best of intentions, like he was really trying to pull this stranger out of the darkness, but he couldn't recognize Barry was trying to pull someone down to his level of misery, pain, and self-loathing. And Birdwell gives him exactly what he wants. He debases himself by resorting to disproportionate violence, for someone who's basically been reduced to a feral cornered animal at this point. It feels so sad, man.
@@nara9668 Yea now he's a full blown monster and doesn't give a shit about the horrible crimes he committed unlike before he thought he could change to become a better person and quit being a hitman but it slowly fades away and he's gotten more delusional
Barry is redeemable. Violence is the only thing Barry is good at and he probably would’ve quit too if it wasn’t for Fugues gaslighting him into killing people. But if Barry stopped killing people from this point forward, I think he could find peace.
You say that as if Barry meant what he said to the prison guard. He's never been like that. There's definitely something wrong with him but he's never just gleefully killed people for the sake of it.
I kinda adore how the guard is emblematic of most people's reactions to Barry revealing his true problems and trying to be open. At first he tries to calm the situation down, but as soon as the Abused turn Abuser (Barry) lashes out in a way which is inconvenient for the guard they immediately reject and ostracize him by beating him into the ground like a tentpole.
@@thetruthlies7 No I wouldn't be fine with it- but I wouldn't respond by locking a clearly mentally unstable person in the room with me and beating them like a rug before likely making up some story about self defense to get away with abusing my authority. The point is that the guard in this instance "tries" to calm barry down but as soon as it gets too hard he just switches to violence as the only solution. No one in the show- aside from one person later- actually gives up anything to help Barry. It's emblematic of how a lot of people respond to individuals with mental health issues. It's easy to offer positive words, but most people don't actually back that up when it gets hard.
@@jonstanton1219 But Barry wasn't saying it cause he was unstable, he was saying it so he could rile the cop up and make him beat him because he had so much guilt inside of him. He was looking for self flaggation. Barry knew that saying something like that would elicit a violent response, that's literally why he said it.
@@thetruthlies7 That's besides the point? The guard abuses his authority against a defenseless man regardless of if Barry is unstable or not or his motivation for verbally lashing out. The guard is a piece of shit.
haven't watched season 4 yet, as i'm watching other shows rn, but i'm just gonna make a comment here to say that holy shit bill hader is a fantastic actor. seeing the difference between bill hader's irl self as a sweet and good dude, and having that be contrasted by his performance here as barry berkman, who is essentially honest with himself and has fully embraced that he is an irredeemable monster, yet still feels immense regret for everything he's done... jesus christ. bill's an artist. i'll be here to support him in whatever he decides to do from this point forward.
@Connor McCartney because i can lol? plus i love the show and i want to see what season 4 has in store. i'll rewatch it and get to season 4 this week, no big deal lol
It's kind of brilliant that Fuches is the one who is developing something close to a redemption arc. Even when he thought Barry betrayed him by talking to the Feds in the third episode, he still tried to find a way to warn Barry that Hank and Cristobal called a hit on him. This was different from the Loach situation in Season 2, as he only reconciled with Barry when Barry admitted that he was glad to see him. But in episode 3, he was getting no affection from Barry and had nothing to gain for himself, so, for the first time, he acted selflessly. Through watching "Rain Man," Fuches finally realized that he (Tom Cruise) had been exploiting a vulnerable and lonely man (Dustin Hoffman). It really was touching. P. S. I was glad that Hank finally realized that his relationship with Barry was one-sided and toxic, but it seems like he is about to embark on a destructive path regardless.
@@nont18411 Agreed, I think the point that is being made in the new season is that most of the major characters are pieces of s**t. Barry is a psychopathic murderer, Gene is an egotistical asshole, Jim Moss abuses people through mental torture, Hank is becoming a ruthless mastermind, and Sally is now a toxic teacher.
Yeah but then words were said and he turned into an equally garbage person who beat some dude in the head with an ASP. He was only nice to him because he's sympathetic to Barry's violent nature and past.
That’s the problem though. Barry doesn’t want anyone to be nice to him. He doesn’t think he deserves it. He’s angry at himself. So when the guard started saying all the same stuff he used to say to himself and he made sure the guard treated him the way he wants to be treated. He wants penance, and any attempt at making him feel better makes him feel worse.
The guard is not a good guy. If he really was a nice guy he would have stayed true to what he said. Barry brought out the worst in him - the true him. Barry does this throughout the series.
The first “I’m a cop killer” reminds me of how he delivered the monologue in the first episode. I cant tel if the second part is him “acting” or truly unleashing himself. Either way - he seemed surprised he responded with violence rather than being afraid or shocked.
He was acting - sort of. He wouldn’t just kill the guy and his family because he’s a jail guard. But he would if he got in Barry’s way. He said that stuff to turn a sympathetic figure into a punishing one, and said exactly what was needed to accomplish that transformation in seconds.
I feel so bad for the Guard, he was trying his best, very rare to find someone like that even in a prison system, those guys are sometimes the one piece to hold yourself together
sure... he tried, right up until he stopped trying and almost killed a guy :p hard to feel bad for corrections dude when he doesn't know the difference between being a free human who can walk out the door every evening and a long term convict in the mental chokehold of the prison system. Doesn't matter what Barry says to him, he should know better than to take such obvious bait, obviously. But then we wouldn't have this dy-no-mite scene :p
"What's your nam-" It is actually terrifying to think that she actually never knew the guys name. No one actually does. Everyone just calls him "Motorcycle Guy" or something. But he was a person. A wildly fucked up person, sure. But still an actual person who Sally killed. Every single kill on the show is an actual person who is murdered by someone who doesn't actually care who you are unless you're someone they know (cough cough Barry cough cough). Barry is desensitized to ending an entire person by now, Sally is understandably not.
That ocean noise is the same noise he heard when he was dying. Makes me wonder if that's where he went in his head. He tried setting him off so he can be put down.
Hader's got two emmys for his acting. I'd love, love to see the Academy award him an Emmy for his directing. He was nominated for Ronnie/Lily and then again for 710N but didn't get it either times... I hope they get it right and give it to him for his incredible work in Season 4.
Is it just me, or could the time jump be interpreted as how Barry's brain is dealing with the beating from the guard. His brain created a What if reality where Barry got what he wanted. And that is what we are watching.
2:28 that exhale he does looks like Hader breaking character. I’m sure this was milliseconds away from him calling cut. He even looks into the lens, lol.
If you wanted to get really subtextual with it, Bill is playing a hit man-turn-actor. Barry is not acting here, but he is on his own life’s stage, he knows the consequences of what he said. I can only assume this kind of acting is seriously emotionally taxing and Bill Hader probably wants the scene to be over in real life just like Barry wants this “scene” of his life to be but he can’t stop what’s coming like he would be able to on a stage or as a work of fiction. It’s a really interesting reaction that fits what’s already an incredible display of artistry - just a happy accident. This show has a permanent seat at the big kids’ table for sure
All I kept thinking is that they needed to recognize Barry was breaking down mentally and needed to be in a psyche ward, not that that tends to be better, but still... the man needs professional mental help.
That scene with him and fuches kicked me in the balls and broke me man, fuck evrything else in this scene, him realizing hes wired and quickly throwing it in without a second thought the second he sees his boy hurt.
Si tan solo fuches hubiera sido asi de amable con barry en las primeras temporadas barry le hubiera sido leal toda su vida pero fuches entendio eso muy tarde
Barry spent a long time trying to figure out what kind of person he truly is. When he got to the point where he just straight up asked Hank if he’s evil, it was then that Barry was done with the complicated answers and just wanted to know if he was even morally acceptable to other people. But when we get to this scene in prison, Barry hears the same words thrown back at him that he had been telling himself since the beginning of the show: that he’s a “not a bad guy” despite his actions. And while he is pretty manic by this point, he actually has a moment of clarity when he realizes how stupid it is to call himself a good guy. And so, what kind of person does Barry realize he is? … a cop killer. Sure, it’s not an honorable title but it does provide the kind of discernible identity Barry’s been searching for. It’s easy for anyone to imagine what personality traits a cop killer would have, and that sign of relief Barry has after he threatens the warden is a nod to that good feeling he gets from at least knowing who he is. But now, he isn’t worried about who he is, just what he wants.
When Barry went on his "I'm a cop killer" rant, I suddenly thought I was listening to Anthony Peter Coleman, formerly private first class, dishonorably discharged
Just my opinion: the beach is purgatory, Barry was there in his purest form (as a child) and he was about to die. Fuches or however it's spelt calling his name is what brought him back to consciousness. Loved the show until the end. Think they were too heavily influenced by Breaking Bad, where the main character had to die for the bad shit he did. Still a good show, but it didn't stick the landing.
He wanted penance, when this guy started offering him that “second chance” speech, he couldn’t handle it knowing Albert gave him the same choice by not killing/arresting him.
Yesss! And making everything, whole his experience worse
Nah I don’t think so. He just wanted to die, so he provoked the guard. The ocean sound is a callback to that “afterlife” he got a glimpse of last season.
@@JojoTheRed That's exactly what i'm saying, he provoked the guard on purpose so he could achieve some kind of penance. Also Arriba Perú

I mean he’s literally slapping himself because he’s pissed that he wound up in jail. I guess there’s a chance Barry wanted “penance” but my guess is he meant what he said and just didn’t care about the consequences.

It's sad compared to the beginning and at this point he is willing to kill anyone.
Barry here was just looking ro get hurt but barry is also willing to kill anyone who he sees as a threat
Don’t blame him tbh
Damn. True asf tho🤟🤟🤟
His acting is so underrated
That slow zoom in on Barry with the ambient ocean noises as the cop gets closer is absolutely insane, god I’ve missed this show so much

I said the same thing. Throughout the whole show Barry been questioning himself. Is Barry evil? He's definitely a bad guy but not evil.
No fucking shit
totally, but that doesn’t really matter. that could’ve been the moment that changed the guards life for worse. maybe he doesn’t try to help anyone again and becomes just like the others who treat them like shit. all because barry wanted to feel penance in an irresponsible moment.
@@gundome12 He’s killed people, and is okay with Killing people. He’s evil. Feeling bad about it after the fact doesn’t change the person.
To your point, Bill Hader confirms this in an interview with The Ringer podcast

Most of the time it’s a pose. Barry went for the jugular.

I don't think it was the entire family thing that made him go police brutality mode on him. I think it was just the late addition if his Mom. Bardwell is a momma's boy so you see his face change from dissapointment to hatred only at the end.
he's just another pig. find yourself alone in a bathroom with one, chances are you'll end up looking like barry
Though depending on the type of prisoner, such as if they’re a member of the Mexica. cartels and they threaten your family, there is a very real chance they’ll follow through on it.
Jail is both conducive to mental breakdowns and the worst place you can have a mental breakdown, becuase you’re surrounded by people barely holding it together
The thing I love most about this scene is the fact that Barry thinks he deserves to get beat up by this guard, accepting the beatdown as he closes his eyes and doesn't fight back

You can see him take a sigh after he's done threatening the guard. Like it took alot out of him to do that. What a hell of a character, seriously.
And I thought Barry was terrifying last season. Jesus Christ.
This is one of my favorite scenes on TV. Barry's self loathing over the life he couldn't escape. Lashing out when the guard tries to console him and cutting so deep he knows the guard will hate him too. That sigh after his monologue when he knows he succeeded and the calm as he accepts the beating he knows he deserves. Drifting in his thoughts after losing everything and looking for anything to hold on to, then Fuches is there again... That practiced smile in the beginning that sets him off, too. Wow.
The music that plays at around 4:30 when they’re just hugging on the floor, is the same music that plays at so many actual sweet moments throughout the show.
Really dark and twisted, I love it.
Among all the things Barry is fantastic at, I feel the music doesn't get full credit and gets lost among the other parts of the show being marvelled at. The scoring of the series, and the soundtracks they choose are incredible.
@@notforonei like the chiptune(?) elements like in “the bus” from season 2
The thing that also needs to be discussed is Fuches, for the first time ever in the show, demonstrating real concern and affection for Barry. Unless it’s an angle he was playing that I can’t figure out. Fuches has been all about himself up til now.
Nah, he's always just had a soft spot for Barry the day he met him...and also that he got his way and Barry said sorry after like 3 and a half seasons.
When he thought Barry was killed, he was actually strangely sad and angered by it. But that always had a dark cloud looking over it because he kept mentioning that "Barry couldn't even say sorry to him!".
I do really believe that Fuches does care for Barry, in his own sick ans twisted way that he sees that he is not causing mental anguish or is at least not at fault for it, much like how Barry sees his relationships with Gene and Sally.
Fuches has always been an evil manipulator with a lust for power, but Barry was an actual innocent kid who was left scarred by what he had done that was slowly morphed into Fuches himself, besides the endless depression, murderous anger rampages and the hope for a better life. Those were just kinks that Fuches couldn't rough out.
Overtime Fuches cared about Barry, and eventually maybe even regretted what he did, but it's to late now. He started this endless cycle of violence and manipulation that will continue though Barry and then whoever that he takes a liking to. He can't stop it now. All he can do is watch and wait until Barry finally gets angry enough to finally kill him.
Tldr: Fuches was always a dick, but then made Barry a dick and then let Barry wriggle into that one teeny tiny piece of his heart. The rest of him is just about how he gets to be on top.
Yea, then he met with that lawyer and was trying to work a deal to fuck Barry then gets butt hurt when Barry goes to work his own. Fuck Fuches
Ahh, hello friend who I see everywhere on this site.
MDK2, it freaks me out a little how I see you on EVERYTHING. Do we just watch similar stuff, like, ALL the time?
@@jacobfromallstate4963 I am legion.
If only if Barry had listened to Albert back at the finale from Season 3, he wouldn’t have been arrested and locked up.
they still could've got him on the murder of the cop's daughter
If it wasn’t for Gene setting him up he probably would have listened. What Gene did was entrapment and if it ends up in court, hopefully Barry’s case will get thrown out. Plus the weapon also belongs to Gene (it’s the prop one which he thought was real and tried to use it on Barry.) so that also points to Gene setting him up. There’s no evidence against Barry at all apart from the word of Gene and it makes what Gene did in the season three final episode look like he’s got some kind of obsession with Barry, not too mention that Gene took and spent the half a million dollars in cash that was Barry’s. If anything apart from him admitting to the guard in this scene there’s nothing linking Barry to anything. And I don’t think his former Marine friend who’s now a cop will say anything. If anything he’ll likely pick up on everything I’ve pointed out like he did when he joined the investigation, and will have a lot of questions for Gene!
@@StillStanding-k2h that’s not entrapment. And it’s not good to root for a hitman to beat the system.
@@MDK2_Radio what proof have they got that he’s one? Fuches isn’t talking, I doubt Albert will. Sally won’t because she was the one who actually ki11€d the last guy, Hank & Cristobal are definitely not going to out Barry because that will bring unwanted attention to them.
Apart from him admitting
here what he did to one person (the guards highly unlikely going to admit what Barry told him without having to admit what he did to Barry!) there’s zero evidence or proof that he’s involved.
And it is entrapment what Gene did to him look it up. If anything everything that happened to Janice points right back at Gene. You think Albert isn’t going to question him regarding certain things. Like how did someone who was broke manage to get their hands on half a million dollars in cash and then spend it all? Why did Barry have his prop 🔫 that’s got his prints all over it? Why did he call Barry to get him to that exact location and then feed him a bunch of BS which caused Barry to try and protect him? It was a set up, it was entrapment and any decent lawyer (never mind a cop) worth their salt will be able to take all of this apart!
We was watching the season three finale with a cop friend of ours (mine and my husband) and the first thing he said when Gene called Barry and told him where he was and what HE was going to do. Our friend said “Gene’s working with the dad to try and entrap him!” That was before Barry even asked where Gene was. The cops have nothing at all linking Barry to Janice or anyone else except for the words of one guy, but they’re got evidence that points to either Fuches or Gene as was shown in season two and three!
Lawyers online who watched the final episode of last season have also said what Gene did was entrapment.
So depending on how the rest of the season goes Barry will be walking out of jail at some point as shown in the trailers and confronting Gene and he’ll either be re-arrested, or have his life ended by either the cops, someone else or by his own hand. Bill has confirmed that Barry isn’t going to get away with what he’s done.
I’m pointing to him having his life taken in some way because of the sound of the sea and beach that we first saw in season two, again in season three (which had an whole episode based around it) and have seen or heard again throughout both these first two episodes of season four.
@@MDK2_Radio Barry did nothing wrong 😑
I haven't seen anyone mention this but I cannot imagine playing this season of Barry has been easy for Bill Hader. Going to such a dark place for damn near every episode has got to take it's toll. Especially as the writer, director, he's completely engrossing himself in this and as respectable and admirable as it is, I truly hope he's doing ok
1:55 this is the monster Barry has always been, deep down. At least he’s honest about it now. This shit was terrifying.
the way he says it too, such guttural spite and disgust at himself. bill's an artist
You ask me, I think Barry was just saying all that so he can get his ass kicked and killed by the guard cause he has nothing to lose anymore
this is the first time where we see he completely lost it
Barry isn’t a Monster, he said that so the guard would kick his ass because Barry wants penance
He's also attempted to earn forgiveness several times in the series, only to relapse and be thwarted by his own anger. The idea of someone offering trust is painful because he knows- or assumes- that it'll just end with him betraying that trust, so he leans into the reputation building around him of being a monster as a defense mechanism. Not unlike when he killed Jeff, even after his client told him to call it off.
That opening breakdown was so real. Staring at himself with utter hatred. Despising the person in the mirror.
“Way to go! Way to go! Way to go! Way to go!” While time beating himself.
The viscous sarcasm. Hatred of himself. Wanting to hurt himself as badly as he knows he deserves but never having the strength to actually kill himself, instead opting to come up with the most bitter, hateful, wounding truths he could possibly imagine. HIS actions put him here. The actions he choose to do. Actions he can never take back no matter how much pain he feels. It wont stop him from trying though. Maybe if he hurts badly enough he’ll escape the torment of hell but he knows he wont. A truly dark story.
Here we have 2 bad men. Barry and the guard.
Barry throughout this show, has given us smiles and puppy dog eyes, only to hide a rage inside of him. We've seen this in the war flashbacks, and in his anger outbursts. There's a hate that is deep inside of him.
He may long for a better life, to be a good person, but until he resolves what's inside he'll always be what he is. Every kind gesture every friendly act, was done in this show, out of some self centered desire. His relationship with Sally is manipulative and toxic. She manipulates him as well, but we know he's not completely blameless.
He killed Chris. He killed Janice. He killed civilians in war. He's not a good man.
Sure, he could learn to be better, but those people he killed never faced justice. He never answered for his actions. And I think that's what this show and Bo Jack Horseman have in common. When bad men try to start anew, without answering for their wrongs. No matter how much someone tries to change, if justice isn't brought to the victims of their behavior, they will always revert back until they're no longer able to get away with it.
The guard here, is like Barry. I don't think he was trying to make a point that the guard was like him, I think he genuinely just wanted to be hurt physically a form of penance. But I think what we're seeing is Barry saw through the guard's kind words. He saw through the facade. Because the moment he disrespected him, he was met with brutality.
Kindness for the guard was a means to an end, to get what he wanted. Just like it was for Barry. The moment that didn't work, both reverted back to what they new best.
When has Barry ever manipulated sally?
Liked this breakdown a lot. 👏🏻
@@hands-ongaming7180 he never did until season 3 when he was completely a bad person
This is a perfect analysis. But I also think we also missed his mother's quote. Barry was a psycho yes...but we see throughout the show that it wasn't his default. Just like I'm sure beating up on prisoners is the officers default.
and then we have fuches. who was able to apologize for what he's done to Barry and over the rest of the season. try to make it right. even diving on his kid during the shootout.
Those eyes. Barry just keeps getting scarier.
3:02 were the pathetic eyes of somebody who desperately wants to not be alive, bit knows they have to keep going... not scary at all. But sad
Bill Hader is going all out for this season. Love to see more of this in future episodes.
2:45 - The reuse of the ambient ocean noises and the giant metallic screech from S3 is interesting. Still curious what that represents. The gates of hell?
its borrasca
God i actually broke into tears when fuches hugged barry. Idk how this show is gonna go down but i hope they manage to fix things
God no! They have an extremely toxic relationship. They need to stay away from each other as far as possible. Fuches is super codependent on Barry and Barrys life gets always worse when Fuches is involved.
No lie I felt the same way fuches is a POS but he really did show Barry how he felt and actually felt broken seeing him that way.
Fuches is going to die horribly and it will be totally justifiable and kinda awesome.. Don't let this feigning concern for Barry's well being fool you. Fuches created Barry by recognizing his hollow soul and completely shattering what was left of it as a means of financial gain... He's a true weapon of evil and the biggest narcissist of all these unhinged characters. Losing Barry would simply mean the loss of a puppet to manipulate and have control over.
Fuches is such a great character. Now he manipulates both the characters in the show and the audience into believing him.
@@nont18411 😂😂 I know right lol
Barry has lost all connection to reality.
Damn, that display of guilt and the desire of punishment... When the blood started to come up I was like hooolay sht. This season had a great start, can't wait to see what's next
God there were so many Oscar worthy scenes in this episode, the sigh after, like he’s relieved? But disgusted after he said that
No one’s gonna talk about how this is the first time Fuches actually admitted that he took advantage of Barry, I don’t think he’s referring to anything other than taking him into the business of being a hitman and seeing Barry bleeding and suffering made him genuinely feel bad about his actions I think fuches even knew Barry let the officer beat him since he knows what he’s capable of
Bill you are one hell of an actor
His smile at the end, just breaks me every time
*I love how he momentarily tries* buying into who he really is.
"Thats a great show" always gets me💀
2:44 no one talking about the same sounds from the purgatory beach scene in Season 3?
Was looking for a comment regarding this. Something about that sound and the gate opening....idk scary as he'll to me
He thought he was going to die probably
Barry is the kind of person that just needs direction and structure. He can’t choose that for himself, he follows or flows to whoever he lets guide him. It’s why he flourishes in any situation without understanding it. This journey is him starting to discover his own desire of control, while finding himself in so much shit for what he’s done. He knows he deserves suffering, he just wants to pay the cost and live calm.
2:11 all those years of playing Clint Eastwood on SNL sure as hell payed off, cause damn did I buy that delivery
2:19 At least Barry won’t kill his dad though. So he’s still redeemable😂
He may have been implying he doesn’t have a dad as an insult idk
@@BisexualPlagueDoctor no. he brought up the guard’s mom because the guard just told a story about her.
The fact that Barry successfully antagonized Birdwell made me sad. Barry is obviously saying the worst possible things he can think of to get a rise out of the CO. Birdwell clearly came into this interaction with the best of intentions, like he was really trying to pull this stranger out of the darkness, but he couldn't recognize Barry was trying to pull someone down to his level of misery, pain, and self-loathing. And Birdwell gives him exactly what he wants. He debases himself by resorting to disproportionate violence, for someone who's basically been reduced to a feral cornered animal at this point. It feels so sad, man.
The way the guard goes from affable to enraged was chilling to watch.
The twin peaks surrealism is beautiful here, hader has elevated himself to a new level again
There's no forgiving Barry
Barry has got to the point where he's beyond redeemable in this season
Was he ever redeemable? He’s had to have killed at least 50 people, he’s always been a monster but now it’s out in the open.
@@nara9668 Yea now he's a full blown monster and doesn't give a shit about the horrible crimes he committed unlike before he thought he could change to become a better person and quit being a hitman but it slowly fades away and he's gotten more delusional
You mean guy who murders people for money Barry? That guy? lmao
Barry is redeemable. Violence is the only thing Barry is good at and he probably would’ve quit too if it wasn’t for Fugues gaslighting him into killing people. But if Barry stopped killing people from this point forward, I think he could find peace.
You say that as if Barry meant what he said to the prison guard. He's never been like that. There's definitely something wrong with him but he's never just gleefully killed people for the sake of it.
I kinda adore how the guard is emblematic of most people's reactions to Barry revealing his true problems and trying to be open. At first he tries to calm the situation down, but as soon as the Abused turn Abuser (Barry) lashes out in a way which is inconvenient for the guard they immediately reject and ostracize him by beating him into the ground like a tentpole.
So you're saying you'd be perfectly fine with someone saying they'd slaughter your wife, children and mother?
@@thetruthlies7 No I wouldn't be fine with it- but I wouldn't respond by locking a clearly mentally unstable person in the room with me and beating them like a rug before likely making up some story about self defense to get away with abusing my authority. The point is that the guard in this instance "tries" to calm barry down but as soon as it gets too hard he just switches to violence as the only solution. No one in the show- aside from one person later- actually gives up anything to help Barry. It's emblematic of how a lot of people respond to individuals with mental health issues. It's easy to offer positive words, but most people don't actually back that up when it gets hard.
@@jonstanton1219 But Barry wasn't saying it cause he was unstable, he was saying it so he could rile the cop up and make him beat him because he had so much guilt inside of him. He was looking for self flaggation. Barry knew that saying something like that would elicit a violent response, that's literally why he said it.
@@thetruthlies7 That's besides the point? The guard abuses his authority against a defenseless man regardless of if Barry is unstable or not or his motivation for verbally lashing out. The guard is a piece of shit.
haven't watched season 4 yet, as i'm watching other shows rn, but i'm just gonna make a comment here to say that holy shit bill hader is a fantastic actor.
seeing the difference between bill hader's irl self as a sweet and good dude, and having that be contrasted by his performance here as barry berkman, who is essentially honest with himself and has fully embraced that he is an irredeemable monster, yet still feels immense regret for everything he's done... jesus christ. bill's an artist. i'll be here to support him in whatever he decides to do from this point forward.
Why are you watching this then?
@Connor McCartney because i can lol? plus i love the show and i want to see what season 4 has in store. i'll rewatch it and get to season 4 this week, no big deal lol
It's kind of brilliant that Fuches is the one who is developing something close to a redemption arc. Even when he thought Barry betrayed him by talking to the Feds in the third episode, he still tried to find a way to warn Barry that Hank and Cristobal called a hit on him. This was different from the Loach situation in Season 2, as he only reconciled with Barry when Barry admitted that he was glad to see him. But in episode 3, he was getting no affection from Barry and had nothing to gain for himself, so, for the first time, he acted selflessly. Through watching "Rain Man," Fuches finally realized that he (Tom Cruise) had been exploiting a vulnerable and lonely man (Dustin Hoffman). It really was touching.
P. S. I was glad that Hank finally realized that his relationship with Barry was one-sided and toxic, but it seems like he is about to embark on a destructive path regardless.
To be fair to Barry, hank had tried to kill him several times
Just because he's likable doesn't mean Hank is blameless. Hank tried to kill Barry many times and they are in cartel business.
@@nont18411 Agreed, I think the point that is being made in the new season is that most of the major characters are pieces of s**t. Barry is a psychopathic murderer, Gene is an egotistical asshole, Jim Moss abuses people through mental torture, Hank is becoming a ruthless mastermind, and Sally is now a toxic teacher.
Poor guard. He was being so nice to Barry, all guards need to be like this guy.
Yeah but then words were said and he turned into an equally garbage person who beat some dude in the head with an ASP. He was only nice to him because he's sympathetic to Barry's violent nature and past.
That’s the problem though. Barry doesn’t want anyone to be nice to him. He doesn’t think he deserves it. He’s angry at himself. So when the guard started saying all the same stuff he used to say to himself and he made sure the guard treated him the way he wants to be treated. He wants penance, and any attempt at making him feel better makes him feel worse.
I think the guard was being nice to him because he saw him in tv
A lot of CO’s are like that but Ofc there are some corrupt ones…
The guard is not a good guy. If he really was a nice guy he would have stayed true to what he said. Barry brought out the worst in him - the true him. Barry does this throughout the series.
Barry earned everything he got
"Geez louise!"
I remember looking into Barry’s eyes as the camera zoomed in to him and I didn’t blink at all
The first “I’m a cop killer” reminds me of how he delivered the monologue in the first episode. I cant tel if the second part is him “acting” or truly unleashing himself. Either way - he seemed surprised he responded with violence rather than being afraid or shocked.
Nah he wanted the guard to "punish" him. That's why he just closes his eyes and lets it happen after what he said
He was acting - sort of. He wouldn’t just kill the guy and his family because he’s a jail guard. But he would if he got in Barry’s way. He said that stuff to turn a sympathetic figure into a punishing one, and said exactly what was needed to accomplish that transformation in seconds.
This has been my morning routine for the last 2 weeks

this was an amazing scene
I feel so bad for the Guard, he was trying his best, very rare to find someone like that even in a prison system, those guys are sometimes the one piece to hold yourself together
sure... he tried, right up until he stopped trying and almost killed a guy :p
hard to feel bad for corrections dude when he doesn't know the difference between being a free human who can walk out the door every evening and a long term convict in the mental chokehold of the prison system. Doesn't matter what Barry says to him, he should know better than to take such obvious bait, obviously. But then we wouldn't have this dy-no-mite scene :p
@@MainDrainStudios both reverted back to what they knew best ?

"What's your nam-"
It is actually terrifying to think that she actually never knew the guys name. No one actually does. Everyone just calls him "Motorcycle Guy" or something.
But he was a person. A wildly fucked up person, sure. But still an actual person who Sally killed. Every single kill on the show is an actual person who is murdered by someone who doesn't actually care who you are unless you're someone they know (cough cough Barry cough cough).
Barry is desensitized to ending an entire person by now, Sally is understandably not.
me before i start my day
You got a personal guard to beat the shit out of you every morning?
Great acting by the guard. Even his physical shape changes as he processes what Barry said he would do
That ocean noise is the same noise he heard when he was dying. Makes me wonder if that's where he went in his head. He tried setting him off so he can be put down.
Idk if it's intentional but the way fuches holds him slightly resembles "Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan" 🧐
Bill definitely needs an emmy award for this role since 2018! He fucking deserves it!
Hader's got two emmys for his acting. I'd love, love to see the Academy award him an Emmy for his directing. He was nominated for Ronnie/Lily and then again for 710N but didn't get it either times... I hope they get it right and give it to him for his incredible work in Season 4.
Easily one of the best scenes in the entire show
I honestly expected Barry to beat the shit out of the guard and then get his teeth kicked in by a group of guards
Watching Barry hit himself/self-harm, is so hard to watch. I can't help but avert my eyes... but man, he is so amazing in this scene.
Is it just me, or could the time jump be interpreted as how Barry's brain is dealing with the beating from the guard. His brain created a What if reality where Barry got what he wanted. And that is what we are watching.
nope, because Bill Hader has said himself it is an actual time jump

2:28 that exhale he does looks like Hader breaking character. I’m sure this was milliseconds away from him calling cut. He even looks into the lens, lol.
If you wanted to get really subtextual with it, Bill is playing a hit man-turn-actor. Barry is not acting here, but he is on his own life’s stage, he knows the consequences of what he said. I can only assume this kind of acting is seriously emotionally taxing and Bill Hader probably wants the scene to be over in real life just like Barry wants this “scene” of his life to be but he can’t stop what’s coming like he would be able to on a stage or as a work of fiction. It’s a really interesting reaction that fits what’s already an incredible display of artistry - just a happy accident. This show has a permanent seat at the big kids’ table for sure
I still feel sorry for Barry. He's Pinocchio, desperately wanting to be human but not knowing how.
Barry’s gone.
Baptized by blood
That's me everyday on my way to my car after work

All I kept thinking is that they needed to recognize Barry was breaking down mentally and needed to be in a psyche ward, not that that tends to be better, but still... the man needs professional mental help.

All that good will and humanity, and he can’t even spot when a broken man is trying to get a rise out of him.
Damn even his mom? Heavy..
Nice of him to leave his Dad out of it though.
Some how the show make the most fucked up dialogue funny as hell bruh
Fusches alwyas cared for him. He loved him it was a strange love but he did actually care for barry and loved him.
Si tan solo fuches hubiera sido asi de amable con barry en las primeras temporadas barry le hubiera sido leal toda su vida pero fuches entendio eso muy tarde
Such good acting all …
Barry spent a long time trying to figure out what kind of person he truly is. When he got to the point where he just straight up asked Hank if he’s evil, it was then that Barry was done with the complicated answers and just wanted to know if he was even morally acceptable to other people. But when we get to this scene in prison, Barry hears the same words thrown back at him that he had been telling himself since the beginning of the show: that he’s a “not a bad guy” despite his actions. And while he is pretty manic by this point, he actually has a moment of clarity when he realizes how stupid it is to call himself a good guy. And so, what kind of person does Barry realize he is? … a cop killer. Sure, it’s not an honorable title but it does provide the kind of discernible identity Barry’s been searching for. It’s easy for anyone to imagine what personality traits a cop killer would have, and that sign of relief Barry has after he threatens the warden is a nod to that good feeling he gets from at least knowing who he is. But now, he isn’t worried about who he is, just what he wants.

Bill Hader is really coming in hot for the Emmys 🙌
Wildly unrealistic to have a supportive prison guard
Just my opinion: the beach is purgatory, Barry was there in his purest form (as a child) and he was about to die. Fuches or however it's spelt calling his name is what brought him back to consciousness. Loved the show until the end. Think they were too heavily influenced by Breaking Bad, where the main character had to die for the bad shit he did. Still a good show, but it didn't stick the landing.
I’m scared of Barry lol
Why does this feel like WWE?
dude the part that makes it worse is that the guard was so nice😭
