We pick back up with Barry the morning after he and Sally have sex. She creates him a Facebook and he reconnects with an old buddy from the Marines. After that, she starts becoming cold towards him and seems like she’s blowing him off.
Fuches gives him his next assignment, raiding the Bolivian stash house, but after Cousineau inspires him to take charge of his life instead of just taking orders, he tells Fuches he is out.

Sally has an audition set up by her “Agent”, but after he propositions her and she rejects him, he cancels the audition and informs the casting agent that he does not represent her.
On the way to Natalie’s party, Barry has a daydream of his future life with Sally, but when he arrives at the party Sally is being cold and distant. He had bought her a new laptop, which she does not accept and walks away to talk to Natalie’s friend, Zach Burrows, who is supposed to be a big star. Fuches shows up to the party and threatens Barry into taking the job. Barry has invited his Marine buddy, who brings two friends along with him. After seeing Sally flirt with Zach, Barry confronts them and Sally tells him to back off. Natalie kicks the rowdy marines out and one of them finds Fuches envelope and wants in on the job.

Cousineau tricks Detective Moss into a date, but she ends up staying and having a good time. When she returns back to the station, the techs have unlocked the video that shows a tall undistinguishable man shooting at the Chechens.
This episode was okay. My favorite part was the daydream Barry has. He visions himself having a barbecue in his and Sally’s backyard. She is telling people her and Barry’s love story. Then Jon Hamm comes up and talks to Barry since they are all friends. Then Jon Hamm asks to take a shit in their house. It was so funny. Everyone who has ever imagined being famous has imagined this exact scenario, maybe with the celebrity asking to take a shit in the house. I also just love Jon Hamm so the cameo was much appreciated.

Sally’s coldness to Barry did annoy me though. I’m curious to see how he falls back into her good graces and how that’s all going to play out. I have a theory it will be a damsel in distress situation. If you have any theories please let me know in the comments.
