However, in the quest for such love, people sometimes do unsavoury or even atrocious acts that make gaining that devotion even more difficult.

Barry (Bill Hader) is keeping Cousineau (Henry Winkler) captive in episode 2 of season 3. Barry keeps Cousineau locked inside his car trunk against the acting coach’s desires while he drives throughout the city in the hopes of carrying out his grand plan for forgiveness. While Cousineau begs Barry to let him go, Barry is adamant about carrying out his plan.

Sally (Sarah Goldberg) is currently recording a new episode of her streaming television show. Barry storms onto the set of the show and demands that Cousineau be cast in it. Barry claims that obtaining Cousineau a job will help him cope with the loss of his girlfriend Janice Moss.

Sally, on the other hand, refuses to cast Cousineau, citing his attitude and a lack of suitable roles for the senior acting teacher. Barry had an outburst in front of the entire staff as Sally rejects his suggestion. Sally’s coworkers analyse the problem after Barry leaves, and they feel she is in an abusive relationship.

Cousineau begs Barry to let him go after his scheme fails, but Barry decides to try again to cast Cousineau. Meanwhile, Fernando, the head of his Bolivian crime family, pays Cristobal a surprise visit. Fernando expresses gratitude to Cristobal for establishing the Bolivian gang’s presence in Los Angeles, and he intends to eliminate the Chechen mafia. Cristobal breaks up with Hank as a result, and warns him of Fernando’s plot.

Barry approaches a casting agent and requests a Cousineau audition. The casting agent, on the other hand, offers him an auction for a part on a popular show.

Barry Season 3 Episode 2 Ending Explained

Barry is cast in a big show at the end of the episode, and Cousineau gets a small part. On the phone, an ecstatic Barry informs Sally of his new job. Meanwhile, he expresses relief at having finally been able to help Cousineau. Barry feels wonderful after performing the deed, and a burden is removed from his shoulders.

When Barry gets back into his car, however, he notices that Cousineau has escaped from the trunk. While Barry looks for Cousineau, the acting teacher seeks assistance. He persuades a woman to order a taxi for him. However, as the cab approaches, Barry’s automobile pulls up alongside it. When the two automobiles collide, Cousineau takes advantage of the opportunity to depart the scene. Cousineau returns to his son, Leo, at his home. He is, however, taken aback when he notices Barry on the scene.

Cousineau never intended to forgive Barry and merely wanted to preserve his life, according to the episode’s conclusion. He intends to alert the authorities about the hitman’s misdeeds. Barry, on the other hand, seeks to dominate Cousineau. He delivers a speech to Cousineau about how the acting coach assisted him in reconnecting with his human side.

Barry uses the same statement to persuade the casting director earlier in the episode. Cousineau, on the other hand, is unimpressed by Barry’s admission, unlike the casting director. Nonetheless, if Cousineau contacts the authorities, Barry threatens to harm his son and grandchildren.

Barry tells Cousineau that he loves him towards the end of the episode, and Cousineau is forced to respond. As the credits roll, a terrified Cousineau utters the words. Barry’s emotional and moral compass has been entirely distorted, according to the episode’s conclusion. Barry is causing psychological harm to the people he claims to love in his drive to prove that he is a nice person. He’s also getting manipulative and unconcerned about other people’s feelings.
