My first cut of this was too long, so I had to cut a little off the front. :) A scene from Chapter Seven: Loud, Fast and Keep Going. Watch Barry on HBO I DO NOT own this.
@@brodhax6148 Barry said it the first time because it was him realizing what he had to do to keep Chris quiet. He shouted it the second time because he was frustrated that Chris didn't understand that he just gave Barry no choice
He’s not thinking straight, panicking, and just saw a massacre. Wouldn’t necessarily expect someone to be making any logical sense experiencing that their first time. It’s only until he tells Barry his plan with the cops and he gets a second to cool down he realizes how he fucked up.
@@Lite727 He killed in self defense. He's an ex-marine with combat experience. I felt like his panic in this scene was a bit out of character, I would expect this reaction from someone who never seen combat or killed before
It's especially dark that he made it look like a suicide. That will mess all of his family members much worse than if he'd made it look like a murder or accident.
As much effort as they put into this show, this does not look like a suicide at all. It looks like he shot him right into his forehead, while the bullet comes out back and destroys the window... Imagine shooting yourself directly into the forehead and how you need to hold the pistol to achieve that. The pistol would not be lying in his hand after that. And why the hell would he turn his head sideways for it at all or why not shoot the side of the head.. so many questions. Just looks like another person shot him in the head and he looked right into it. Besides all that, the blood on the windshield does not make any sense at all that way...
@@sprousaTM Him being shot right in the forehead would raise some eyebrows but people have shot themselves in some really odd angles in real life before and he also has no defensive wounds. Just my 2 cents, I'm not an expert.
@@vicvalentini362 Sure neither am I. But come on. They way you have to hold the gun to be able to do that. There is no way he dies and his hand falls to the side with the pistol still in. Even though the recoil is not that big, I doubt their is even a slightest chance that would happen.
The change in Chris' energy when Barry screams "why'd you just say that?" is so chilling. You can see it finally dawn on him, too late, just how much danger he's in.
I know this show is fantastic. Like For me , I think Chris admitted he didn’t care if they’d go after Barry’s acting class and his family he needed to die. Like I don’t condone what Barry did but I understand
@Nikita Danylyshyn he first said he lied to his wife saying he went to the gym, he then says later "I told her I was meeting you" trying to save himself.
@Nikita Danylyshyn He thought if he lied to Barry that his wife knew where he was and who he was with then Barry won’t try anything but since Barry saw right through his lie well, you see that it didn’t work. It took me a minute to understand too.
He still could have gotten out while that car stopped in front of them, barry was waiting for them to leave before he killed him so I mean, get outta there.
x808drifter it is a rather nice dramatic touch but realistically majority of the time unless the bullets really packing a punch it’d stop inside the head or the other side of the skull or when it exited it wouldn’t have enough velocity to break glass and the blood is kinda too over dramatic because realistically it would just pour out of his head
@@jeffreyfife5293 Wrong. Perhaps you've never fired a weapon at anything other than paper. It appears the gun is a 9mm, and if so, that bullet has enough energy to go through 4 human skulls, the window, and then exit through the 28ga sheet metal roof. Jeffums statement would be slightly more accurate if the gun shown was a .22, .17. or perhaps a .32 or .380. Listen to the Iceman tapes about the NJ/NY mob hitman. He explains why using small calibers is desirable. "Less noise and less mess" as he put it.
remington351 a 9mm definitely isn't going through four skulls. I've seen 5.56 hit the top of a human skull and ricochet off, and that's a much smaller bullet going much faster with far more penetration
@@ViktoriousDead OF course it will. Just because you've seen a 5.56 ricochet off a skull does not change the characteristics of the 9mm. Others could comment they have "seen" a .45 stopped by a feather, or a 105mm Abrams tank shell stopped by a car door, or a T-Rex eat a bear. But that doesn't make it a repeatable outcome. Maybe you'll agree, or maybe you wont, that a 2x4 that you buy at Home Depot is more difficult to shoot though than a human skull. Or at least the 2x4 and skull will have similar affect on a 9mm bullet. If so, take 5 minutes and review the following videos of 9mm going through multiple 2x4's. Then post a comment about how you saw blue jay swoop down and eat a cobra snake, because, why not.

2:26 "I told you to get out of the car man...." This is absolutely bone chilling when it's coming from Barry. He's tacitly acknowledging that for him there's only one way that it can go now, and it means only he's walking away from this and Chris realizes it too.
Remember "acting is truth," "use it," "you don't have to know what child molestation is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone." Bill Hader really hurt someone and he's using it...duh? I mean I wouldn't have even wondered if it wasn't brought up 15 times as what acting is, and then it kinda went nowhere, for Barry, if not Bill Hader? What's "murder"? It's the worst thing Bill Hader ever did to someone. By the logic stated on the show a dozen times. Here's what it might be: "Can you give me ANYTHING?"--Sally to Barry, in that scene that won the Emmy, after he murders his old marine buddy, with the agent in the audience. The biggest literary agent in the world had requested my novel--the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs" from "South Park." The book that makes you puke, that's inexplicably REALLY good. Bill Hader was there, in the "South Park" writer's room. That was a parody of a real book--that's why that episode made no sense, and people still ask Google if it's real, somehow. I had mailed it to the voice of Towelie. I thought I had enough evidence (there's even more, now.) But nobody believed it? Or understood? Or cared? For "South Park" to even notice some guy's novel was a miracle--yet I could explain how it happened at every stage. Got their attention with something incredibly disgusting, funny and vile--then people kept coming back from reading it saying it was some kind of highbrow literary masterwork, and it felt like a comedy sketch. "Guys, this is MY LIFE. I don't want to sue you. It's the coolest thing in the world. Salman Rushdie's agent requested it because this literary genius Stanford neuroscientist basically said 'I think it's like the best thing I've ever read?' like an idiot, like the episode. He's talented, you guys are actually talented, this book is weird and nobody ever thought it would sell, it means EVERYTHING TO ME. I love you. 'They did a 'South Park' about it' already makes it more relevant to pop culture than 10,000 pieces of shit no one cares about. Can you give me ANYTHING?" Cold. Like killing Chris. Under orders, like the Macbeth scene from Season 1--"South Park" guys didn't want to get sued or then, have it be known they were dicks like that. Unfortunately for their personal brands, they just can't help themselves: they put everything in the show. From my book, to Bill Hader screaming at Trey Parker about his personal brand in 2012, to feeble-minded Reddittors who just think the TV is talking to me (my name is "Rick"--the season finale of "South Park" was just saying my name as much as possible--48 times, tied with "a," I analyzed a transcript--the TV is literally talking to me! That's the joke! You can go watch this right now, it's called "Spring Break.") I don't want to destroy his reputation, but since he's made pretty clear he'll never admit this, now, should point "can you give me anything" and "Chris looked up to you" are not there for the audience, really--any viewer would almost nitpickingly point out the Chechen guy looked up to Barry, not Chris--no, it's there so Bill Hader can win Emmys, "using it." It really is kind of a scumbag move! And Barry is convincing that way: the guilt is fucking real, over SOMETHING. He obviously wrote the first season around that one scene. "I have this great emotional shit from when I felt like I ruined this guy's life. I can 'use it'!" Hader's great performance as a scumbag IS in itself scumbaggy, in a feedback loop. But this is America, and Bill Hader IS a good guy, now--cuz he's on fuckin' TV. And I'm gonna use it. Bill Hader felt like he murdered the guy who wrote the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs," which is actually called "Bebe's Tale" (like the "South Park" character,) which is why the character Bebe beat the shit out of Butters' "personal brand" last season. Butters sometimes stood for Bill Hader! They were worried this story would make them look like dicks. But between "Barry" and "South Park," I don't know which series of confessions is more obvious? Scrotie (.) Biz in your browser for more!
He did, in fact, say that. He also tried to exclude him and pull him out a few times before that. Chris was so caught up in his 'I'm a hardass ex-marine' fantasy that he didn't see Barry's attempts to help for what they were. He wanted to be a badass marine and involved himself with the wrong people. The 'I told you to get out of the car' was his last chance. He didn't realize it at the time, but it was. After that, things were going to end badly for him no matter what. While Barry is indeed saying that to alleviate his own guilt, there's also a kernel of hard truth in there that Chris cannot deny.
@@matheussberant, Chris wanted in on this so badly and Barry didn't want him to. Then he couldn't handle it and by doing so threatened Barry. Barry did what he had to. Chris is the bad guy in my opinion.
Man it kills me the way Chris tries to back-peddle when he realizes what Barry intends to do, but you can tell by the look on Barry's face that it's too late, and Chris still keeps trying. Man, bums me out every time.
Yeah remember "acting is truth," "use it," "you don't have to know what child abuse is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone." He really hurt someone and he's using it...duh?

Amazing how Bill Hader has less than 10 lines in this scene while Chris’ dialogue is constant, yet you can follow the thoughts of each character so closely. In fact, Bill’s expressions speak louder than any of Chris’ constant dialogue. Everything about this scene is perfect but the acting specifically is astounding.
@@98tharmorcav First three things don't matter because Barry shot him point blank as we see. So these things would match basically a suicide. Also would the Trajectory of the round. People shot themselves in the side of the Head, in the front, put the gun in their Mouths... point is people shot themselves in some weird positions. Don't know why you even bring up GSR. It is unreliable to read and interpret. You think everyone who shoots himself is calm and at peace with himself?
@@98tharmorcav You don't have LEO, crime scene or coronial experience. You've been watching too much CSI. The trajectory of the shot wouldn't reveal anything other then someone being shot from a horizontal angle at approximately eye level. Blood splatter would also be consistent with such a shot, again telling us nothing. The head position, well i'm not going frame by frame to analysis a tv show, but unless location of the entry wound is impossible to pull off, no one's making a ruling. it looks more suspicious the less we see such wounds, but that alone is not enough to say it wasn't a suicide. There are 2 things that indicate the shot wasn't self inflicted pretty solidly, 1 is the entry wound itself, as we know the actual range we know that the wound would indicate Intermediate range from a handgun, but several handguns would give us an inconclusive result, as powder tattooing varies greatly from firearm to firearm. Unless that gun in particular doesn't leave such marks from outside of a few centimeters, we simply don't have enough to rule one way or another. 2 is the actual telltale sign which is that his hand is holding a gun, its also how i know your full of shit, because you neglected to mention the 1 thing that lets us know right away that this is suspicious. To start with not only is it unusual for a suicide victim to be gripping the weapon with handguns its only 25%, But the way in which the hand is gripping the firearm simply inconsistent with suicide, so inconsistent that unless some dumbass cop or EMT on scene moved it before being photographed anyone who actually works with homicide cases on semi regular basis would treat the death as suspicious immediately. there are also few other things outside of the crime scene itself that would lead also detectives to treat the death as suspicious. these things combined with other evidence (such as fresh prints from the passenger, the shell casings resting location), which on it's own usual wouldn't be enough for ruling would now help support a homicide. All up a pretty good depiction of a frame job and it's believable enough that such a murder could be missed given the right circumstances.
I love the attention to detail with these scenes. When Barry shoots Chris, he grabs his hands so there’s no sign of a struggle and it looks like he shot himself.
I figured that was so there was no chance he could try to push the gun away or fight back. His dominant hand, the one closest to Barry, was locked down so there was no way he could grab the gun or anything.
It’s not to show that he shot himself its a way of locking down the persons closest hand to you so you can use your firearm without worry of a struggle
@@117harper That is literally why Barry grabbed his hands, to prevent Chris from fighting back, and creating defensive wounds on his own body, which would tip off the authorities that he was murdered. Good lord, you are so naive and unintelligent, little buddy ❤️
This scene is so brilliantly written and realistic. The way Chris realizes his position silently and begins trying to desperately convince Barry with “I told my wife I was coming to see you”.
This is how you write conflict in a scene with no action. Perfectly written. Characters aren’t openly saying their thoughts, you just know exactly what they’re thinking. There’s need to be more of this in TV
Ill be frank. The first 3 episodes caught my attention and then just went downhill very fast for me. I want more moments like this. I might have to slog through the boring parts.
One of the things I love about this series is how it handles deaths, and how the drama isn't derived from Barry's kills themselves, but how completely casual it is. Like, he literally just killed Chris with the same effort it took to step out of the car...and that's what hurts Barry, that he's become this...creature that can kill even close friends with no hesitation.
Absolutely. Violence is almost never exciting in this show. It's terrifying. A lot of things that would be chopped up dramatized action sequences in other shows happen in real time with no score. And it's scarier that way.
I agree and disagree with this take. The whole point is that it WASN'T an easy choice for Barry / that it WASN'T effortless. He pleaded and begged and pushed multiple times for this guy to go away, to be quiet, to not make Barry have to kill him. Something he has never done with anyone else, specifically because he's always only killed "bad guys" so far (as far as he knows). He reverts to a cold killing machine only when he has no other choice that he can see - and that absolutely messes him up afterward. I get what you're going for, but "effortless"? Nah, this was one of the most painful things Barry's ever done.
@dumondaustin3694 Considering that he makes an exception for *SPOILER Crisneau, Barry is either a psychopath partial to some more than others or the writing inconsistent and the series should have concluded in the first season*
@@diamondjoemazing I'd say there's a difference between pain and effort in this context. A normal person who has never deliberately killed or seriously hurt anyone before would find murdering someone, especially a friend, both painful, and alot of effort to physically make themselves do against the instinctive compulsion not to. On the other hand, Barry feels pain and guilt from murdering people, especially his friend here, but he has killed so many people that he has completely deadened the instinctive compulsion against killing. So for Barry, despite it being painful, it is also effortless.
"This show has EVERYTHING: murder...theatre...lipstick cameras....a tiny little blonde girl who's also a FERAL GREMLIN. And look out on the dance floor - is that Mister Clean?! NO. It's a bald Chechen mobster who's SUPER HAPPY TO SEE YOU!"
@@lbboardingb3356 at the end of the series barry finally snaps and heads off to New York to become a flamboyantly gay drug addict and gets caught up in the dungeon culture party scene. a fitting character arc
If you watch Bill Hader at 3:56 he does a very subtle move to the left like he's going to pull the gun, then hesitates for a second, then does it. It's like he tried to talk himself out of it one last time.
My favorite part of this clip is the 15-20 seconds where both men see the random vehicle in front of them and know what is about to happen but are forced to simply sit next to each other and wait. That small detail gave the audience a moment to just bask in the tension and emotion they are both feeling without it feeling like a forced pause of some kind. It's like watching something fall towards an inevitable crash landing; you know something bad is about to happen but all you can do is watch and wait.

What was it? It was the worst thing Bill Hader ever did to someone. "You don't have to know what child-molesting is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone"-Sally. The 12 different scenes where they run down the acting process: it points one place. What was all that "use it" stuff that didn't quite go anywhere, for Barry the character? Bill Hader the guy is really using something for "murder." "Acting is truth."-Cousineau. The guilt is real. Which is how I came up with this, not some schizoid mania. I started watching "Barry" because I liked "Silicon Valley." "Oh wait, what could have happened in Bill Hader's career...you'd have to had really messed up someone's life, one time? Oh wait, he did write for 'South Park'? I guess there was that one time he ruined MY life? And I knew I was never gonna sue them, so my only option was to make them feel as guilty as I possibly could? Um."

No its not. Look at 1:50. Look at Barry's reaction. Its defeat. He no longer feels like he has a choice. He is resigned to silence Chris, because Chris decided to sing.
@@foodank_atr817 I think it is. Chris got scared and was starting to catch on when he yelled, so he said he lied about that and actually told his wife that he was going to see Barry
The scariest part of this scene for me is when Chris slowly realizes the impact of what he just said. He is acting like any rational and normal human would in that situation and do the "right" thing and go to the police. The way Barry looks away with disgust at himself and what he had to do when Chris changes his tune is heartbreaking. Bill Hader's acting in this scene is absolutely master class. This scene was absolutely disturbing and beautifully shot and acted.
1:55 - 2:30 Is perfection. The moment Barry realizes what he has to do, and the moment Chris realizes what's about to be done......just phenomenal writing and acting.
You can tell how hard this was for Barry, he really didn’t want to kill him it didn’t feel right but he had to do it. And the way he says “why’d you have to say that” and “I told you to get out of the car” you can tell how hard this was
I mean to be honest HARD would be Barry turning himself in, and living the rest of his life in prison. At his core Barry is a selfish dude even if he is Bill fucking Hader and a nice dude :P
@@happy_mask_salesman Um no, that would still be easy to do, just time consuming and you don’t have to sacrifice the rest of your life for someone to not be selfish. He told him to get out of the car. He replied with “I don’t care if you die, I’m going to the cops.” At that point, HE was the one who made a selfish choice and there was nothing either of them could do
@@michaelthatoker7125 Exactly. Barry warned that him going to the cops would result in ALOT of people dying, and all Chris responded with "I dont care"
@@michaelthatoker7125 Moon Kid was right, this entire series is about Barry doing everything to escape the reality that he really should be in jail. That's what makes it so good, there's so much hope for redemption but he keeps thinking it doesn't come with accountability.
THANK GOD THEY BROKE THE GLASS!!! in every movie that someone gets shot, they never account for the trajectory of the bullet through the body. Always show blood splattering into the window, but never the bullet. I guess the bullet dissapears? Finally someone thought through how guns work. Bravo Barry
Nah bullets don't go through cleanly....... They sometimes break apart when they hit bone. Some people get shot in the torso and have the bullet bounce around inside them then exit out their leg. Moral of the story. Just don't know where that bullet going
Many small pistol calibers, especially hollow points, won't penetrate far anyways (assuming it wasn't deflected some). I wouldn't say not seeing an exit wound makes it look fake.
This moment hit like some of the most emotional moments of breaking bad. Barry's probably the only show to give me a similar vibe to what breaking bad did. I really hope another season is coming.
@@styrofoamcow6996 i love bcs. Its ending though. Another great tense show like this is Attack on Titan. Im still looking around for shows as good as BB though. I cant get enough of it at all
Barry wanted to kill his bad side (the other hitman who is bald that is idiotic) and instead went on a raid with him, which forces Barry to kill his good side (the side of him that wanted a family and happiness )
AM Revered It redeemed the season for me. Up until that point season 2 was not giving me any of the same feelings the first did. Felt like they were leaning more towards the comedy angle this time around when the first season was a perfect balance.
This was the scene I realize Bill Hader was more than just a comedic actor. This dude had genuine emotional chops that kept me on the edge of my seat for this whole scene. We all know what going to happen but it sucks to watch it happen. And then how he incorporates his now trauma into his acting is brilliant. God I love this show
This is one of my favorite scenes of all time. Movie, television, whatever. It's insanely well written, well acted, so subtle, so well thought out. It's so, so good by all involved.
Lets break down all the subtexts of this excellent scene: - at 1:40, Barry makes a mental note of the fact that Chris' wife doesn't know he's with Barry. He isn't planning anything, it just kind of popped into his head - at 2:00, Barry realizes his friend isn't trying to convince him that they should go to the cops; He's telling him that he is doing exactly that. Chris is scared and desperate and plans something stupid. - at 2:06, note the defeated, blown away expression by Barry. This is shock and resignation. Barry realizes what he has to do. And he wishes, above all else, that Chris didn't mention his plans, because now Barry has to shut him up. - at 2:14, Barry's resignation is now anger. Its like the 5 stages of grief for a murderer. - at 2:20, Chris realizes he isn't in a discussion. This is a dangerous situation and he needs to leave. Barry is now trying to shift the blame to assuage his own guilt for what's about to happen. - at 2:30, Chris starts backtracking. He swears not to say anything, and even realizes he gave away the fact that nobody knows where they are. - at 3:06 A car pulls up. Both men know nothing can be done until it leaves. There's tension in the air as we wait for the area to be devoid of witnesses. Chris tries to appeal to Barry's character, but Barry sees through this.
@monokhem It was stupid because he most certainly would get jail time, along with the Bolivians discovering his involvement and killing his family. Barry was right on all counts (save the murdering)
@monokhem barry litterly said if he went to the cops they (Bolivians) would try to kill their families. All they had to do was stay quiet because he took care of the crime scene and no one would know. I prob would make my decisions based on how well i knew barry.
What’s so scary about this scene is how real it is. The acting the deductions, the logic, no background music, the glass breaking behind Chris after the gun shot, Barry holding his hand back before pulling the trigger, and the tension.
This scene is top tier acting and writing from Bill Hader. Just the processing of Barry's thoughts as Chris rambles on is incredible, but it's always been the casual walk off after killing him that stuck with me because it further solidifies just how easy it is for Barry to take a life. He walks away, hands in pockets as if he didn't just kill a guy and at that a former friend, husband, and father. With Season 3 finally done, this moment pointed towards Barry possibly being far beyond redemption. What a fucking show.
The cold calculated acting is great. I remember seeing interviews with Michael Cain talking about how you act even when not saying anything. There are moments where subtle moments of thinking shine through. Hader is a bit over the top with even just the silence, it's crazy fun to watch.
He actually didn’t piss him off at all. It was more “Oh shit, I’m alone with a professional hitman and I just said something stupid”. Barry didn’t get angry over the police. He got angry because Chris said his wife didn’t know he was with Barry and he told her he’d go to the gym. The moment he said that he took the cuffs out of Barry’s hand and there was no other justification to not kill him. And that’s why Barry is angry that he said THAT, and not all the other shit about coming clean.
Intense acting, love it when the guy changes his story because he knew his life was in jeopardy, even changed the story about telling his wife he was with him

I love that half of the show is Barry trying to become a successful actor when here, Bill Hader has portrayed probably some of the best acting that I've ever seen in my entire life. It feels like you're watching someone's life instead of feeling like you're watching a tv show.
Chris goes from "I'm coming clean" to "it's cool, I'll be quiet about it" cuz he realized he fucked up and he had to fake it so that barry wouldn't kill him, and Barry had no choice but to kill him cuz he knew chris' sudden change in attitude was a lie so he could stay alive.
The best acting I’ve seen in my life, this scene hit me like nothing else ever has. The “why did you say that” is so intense and real that it stunned me the first time I watched it. Best acting and I’ll stand by that.
@monokhem fuck off. no one expects proper grammar in the youtube comment section ever. its just your lazy ass comeback because you know hes right and youre just an ass.
@monokhem "you aren't qualified to have an opinion" then a personal attack as well? lol get off your high horse. People have different opinions. Don't shoot someone down over theirs
The car arrival at 3:08 makes this scene even more chilling, a very impactful subtext. At 3:40 you can see the guy grasping his final straws and out of mind after seeing his last hope to escape (a witness leverage) drive away. Fantastic scene direction and acting, 10/10.
I thought it was the tension of he didn't know if Barry called this guy to take care of him. And when he saw the random get in his car and drive away, he was relieved for a second.
In that moment, Chris could have quickly gunned their car straight into that other one and caused a deliberate crash, forcing other people between himself & Barry.
"I'm going to the cops and telling them everything, and If I gotta do some, fine... but I'm coming clean!" Congratulations on signing your own death warrant, Chris.
Can we just appreciate what a great actor Bill Hader is? He has just a few lines in this scene, but his physicality and intensity is everything. We already knew he was a comedic genius, but who knew he could pull off a character with so much nuisance and weight. He’s probably the last person you’d think to cast in the role, but he fucking nails every scene, and I can’t imagine any other actor playing the character.
Oh man, what a brilliant scene. I’ve watched it dozens of times over the last couple of years and it gets my heart racing every single time. It’s a perfect scene. Wow.
People forget that comedy at it's core comes from a dark place. Comedy is dark. It gets darker the more your morals come into play and what you're acceptable with. Think about it, even the most benign jokes are plays off our own mortality.
0:42 "They'll go after your family" From what we've seen, the gangsters in the show are pretty pragmatic, and will kill only those who (in their twisted minds) deserve to or need to die. They aren't the kind of cartoony villains who hold loved ones hostage. Barry is lying because he sees Chris' desperation to go to the cops and get rid of his guilt, and he sees that Chris is probably more than willing to risk his life to do it, as long as he dies with a clean(er) conscience. Barry knows that his only chance of talking Chris out of it is to convince him that snitching would put his family in danger. It doesn't work. Such a sad scene in such an incredible show. Okay now stop reading comments and watch the damn show.
This scene was so heartbreaking. He knew that Chris needed to be kept quiet but he didn't want to do it because they were friends and Barry didn't even want to kill a fellow Marine in the first place. The realization on Bill's face... That's amazing acting right there.
i hate, absolutely HATE how underrated this show is. I've legit had to lie down and rethink after some of the scenes (this included). i love how they show this stuff the way it is. barry isn't some lovable, only the right amount of bad to be termed morally good guy who only kills "bad" men -- he's a complicated, f*cked up human being who will do whatever he can to save himself, but also a part of him simultaneously wants to change. i didn't expect him to kill chris, honestly. especially because he was all like "i wont kill a marine yada yada yada", and didn't kill the other guy either but here you actually see the guy for who he is --- a stone-cold murderer. the show is unfiltered and dark when necessary and funny other times. i love that they haven't tried to make hardcore stuff like death, depression and violence comedic but more real and raw. and i still find myself rooting for him which is crazy. it's a beautiful show and bill hader is just BRILLIANT as always. BARRY seriously deserves more and better marketing, its truly special and i cant wait for season 3!
Well, then you should feel good because it's not underrated at all. It's received 44 emmy nominations and 9 wins. It is has a 98% critic rating, and an 89% audience score.
He screamed “Why did you just say that!” twice and said “I told you to get out of the car.” after he knew he was going to kill him. You aren’t very observant.
I personally think in this scene, at 2:30, after Barry shouts at Chris, Chris realizes he ultimately cannot change Barry's mind, and so fearing that Barry might kill him then and there for saying that he'll come to the police, Chris decides to lie about not going. Barry (already resigned to kill Chris), having practiced somewhat in acting, sees through this, and his expressions afterwards shows his pity and sadness. Chris's lie merely further convinces Barry that his must kill Chris. I like viewing this scene with this interpretation more, though others probably read this scene differently
I'm pretty sure that when Barry yells 'why did you say that' it's not the anger that scares Chris, it's the fact that he just realised what he told Barry. 'Nobody knows where I am, nobody knows that I came to meet you." You can literally see Barry's face drop as he realises that he can make a clean kill here. He doesn't _want_ to, but Chris literally just told him that this is his only chance. That's why Chris backpedals as soon as he realizes what he implied. 'Actually my wife totally knows where I am, and also I just changed my mind and i'm not going to the cops. There's no need to do anything drastic.' But by that point it's too late. Barry knows he's just saying that because he's scared, and as soon as he leaves the car, Chris will go to the police.
Oh wow, so smart captain obvious. In an attempt to sound smart you fked up one thing though - he didn't need acting classes to see through a victim's bullshit.
THIS SCENE IS EVERYTHING! 15/10 *CHEF’S KISS* THE CORRELATION TO MACBETH, THE ACTING, THE LINES, THE GRADUAL BUILD UP THEN BLOW UP,-VERY CLIMACTIC, THE SMALL DETAILS, GODDAMNNNN I’M IN LOVE WITH THIS SCENE SO MUCH ✨ PEFRECTION ✨
I love how Barry holds Chris' hand on the steering wheel just before he kills him. Not only does it show that Barry is a professional who has done this many times before but it also comes off as an apologetic/merciful gesture of holding his hand as he dies.
This scene was a life lesson to me. If you are going to do a unsafe choice. Commit totally. and learn what exactly you are getting into. Barry did give him a chance and he made his decision. He just really had no clue and said he would Get Barry's back.... He lost his cool. Barry did the smart thing but it was wrong.
Exactly..If it was me I would've taken that shit to the grave. Barry gave him an out. No one wants to be a pussy..that's reality. Commiting 100% was the only thing he could've done after that.
In reality if you have something on someone bad they are just going to kill you and are planning that from the start. So you really can't get into any of this bs and expect to live. And there is only so much you can do alone, so if you want to not die and not be in jail then it's not much of an option.
God damn. Bill Hader gets a lot of praise for his acting in this show, deservedly so, but everyone around him also does an incredible job. The editing is fantastic as well. Sorry for the obnoxious gushing but I just really love this show.
I never realized the importance of the car at 3:06 but when I watched this again it all made since. Was literally his last chance to run out of the car and try to escape. The silence during that part is unbelievable and breathtaking
I liked this series before this episode but THIS is the scene that truly makes the series rise above other shows and I’ve been hooked ever since. It deserves all the awards and recognition it’s been getting. Show keeps getting better and better.
One of the best scenes out of Season 1, such a tense and gut-wrenching moment for the viewer. As soon as Chris starts going off, Barry along with the audience come to realize what has to be done, and when it happens? Damn.
2:27 that’s literally Barry saying he has to kill him now. The acting in this scene is amazing, I need to watch the show after seeing this. Absolutely electric.
This scene is so real and it's dilemma between two friends where one is scared and the other is desensitized to murder and it's so tragic what barry has to do to keep his secret
“So I’m gonna go to the cops, and I’m gonna come clean. I’m gonna tell them everything.”

Tells a hitman he's going to the cops. Oh,Chris! You poor deluded soul.
He’s not thinking straight, panicking, and just saw a massacre. Wouldn’t necessarily expect someone to be making any logical sense experiencing that their first time. It’s only until he tells Barry his plan with the cops and he gets a second to cool down he realizes how he fucked up.
He wasn't ready man

After the hitman explained why it wouldn't work, told him people would come for his family and still... Ahhh
@@Lite727 He killed in self defense. He's an ex-marine with combat experience. I felt like his panic in this scene was a bit out of character, I would expect this reaction from someone who never seen combat or killed before
It's especially dark that he made it look like a suicide. That will mess all of his family members much worse than if he'd made it look like a murder or accident.
Yeah, but then there would be a deeper investigation. Ex military member commits suicide and he’s just a statistic
As much effort as they put into this show, this does not look like a suicide at all. It looks like he shot him right into his forehead, while the bullet comes out back and destroys the window... Imagine shooting yourself directly into the forehead and how you need to hold the pistol to achieve that. The pistol would not be lying in his hand after that. And why the hell would he turn his head sideways for it at all or why not shoot the side of the head.. so many questions. Just looks like another person shot him in the head and he looked right into it.
Besides all that, the blood on the windshield does not make any sense at all that way...
@@sprousaTM Him being shot right in the forehead would raise some eyebrows but people have shot themselves in some really odd angles in real life before and he also has no defensive wounds. Just my 2 cents, I'm not an expert.
@@vicvalentini362 Sure neither am I. But come on. They way you have to hold the gun to be able to do that. There is no way he dies and his hand falls to the side with the pistol still in. Even though the recoil is not that big, I doubt their is even a slightest chance that would happen.

The change in Chris' energy when Barry screams "why'd you just say that?" is so chilling. You can see it finally dawn on him, too late, just how much danger he's in.
I know this show is fantastic. Like For me , I think Chris admitted he didn’t care if they’d go after Barry’s acting class and his family he needed to die. Like I don’t condone what Barry did but I understand
I just realized Chris was trying to save his life by saying he told his wife he was going to meet Barry
Yup and Barry saw right through it
@Nikita Danylyshyn yes
Chris said he told his wife he went to the gym. And changed his story.
@Nikita Danylyshyn he first said he lied to his wife saying he went to the gym, he then says later "I told her I was meeting you" trying to save himself.
@Nikita Danylyshyn He thought if he lied to Barry that his wife knew where he was and who he was with then Barry won’t try anything but since Barry saw right through his lie well, you see that it didn’t work. It took me a minute to understand too.

One of the rare moments in film/television where the glass breaks behind the person after they’re shot. Nice attention to detail.
07foxmulder Then they go and ruin it with the splatter on the windshield.
x808drifter it is a rather nice dramatic touch but realistically majority of the time unless the bullets really packing a punch it’d stop inside the head or the other side of the skull or when it exited it wouldn’t have enough velocity to break glass and the blood is kinda too over dramatic because realistically it would just pour out of his head
@@jeffreyfife5293 Wrong. Perhaps you've never fired a weapon at anything other than paper. It appears the gun is a 9mm, and if so, that bullet has enough energy to go through 4 human skulls, the window, and then exit through the 28ga sheet metal roof. Jeffums statement would be slightly more accurate if the gun shown was a .22, .17. or perhaps a .32 or .380. Listen to the Iceman tapes about the NJ/NY mob hitman. He explains why using small calibers is desirable. "Less noise and less mess" as he put it.
remington351 a 9mm definitely isn't going through four skulls. I've seen 5.56 hit the top of a human skull and ricochet off, and that's a much smaller bullet going much faster with far more penetration
@@ViktoriousDead OF course it will. Just because you've seen a 5.56 ricochet off a skull does not change the characteristics of the 9mm. Others could comment they have "seen" a .45 stopped by a feather, or a 105mm Abrams tank shell stopped by a car door, or a T-Rex eat a bear. But that doesn't make it a repeatable outcome. Maybe you'll agree, or maybe you wont, that a 2x4 that you buy at Home Depot is more difficult to shoot though than a human skull. Or at least the 2x4 and skull will have similar affect on a 9mm bullet. If so, take 5 minutes and review the following videos of 9mm going through multiple 2x4's. Then post a comment about how you saw blue jay swoop down and eat a cobra snake, because, why not. Don't let math, physics, energy, density properties get in your way.

2:26 "I told you to get out of the car man...." This is absolutely bone chilling when it's coming from Barry. He's tacitly acknowledging that for him there's only one way that it can go now, and it means only he's walking away from this and Chris realizes it too.
This is the way
Also, blaming Chris, Barry can't be the bad guy to himself.
Remember "acting is truth," "use it," "you don't have to know what child molestation is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone."
Bill Hader really hurt someone and he's using it...duh? I mean I wouldn't have even wondered if it wasn't brought up 15 times as what acting is, and then it kinda went nowhere, for Barry, if not Bill Hader? What's "murder"? It's the worst thing Bill Hader ever did to someone. By the logic stated on the show a dozen times. Here's what it might be:
"Can you give me ANYTHING?"--Sally to Barry, in that scene that won the Emmy, after he murders his old marine buddy, with the agent in the audience.
The biggest literary agent in the world had requested my novel--the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs" from "South Park." The book that makes you puke, that's inexplicably REALLY good. Bill Hader was there, in the "South Park" writer's room.
That was a parody of a real book--that's why that episode made no sense, and people still ask Google if it's real, somehow. I had mailed it to the voice of Towelie. I thought I had enough evidence (there's even more, now.) But nobody believed it? Or understood? Or cared? For "South Park" to even notice some guy's novel was a miracle--yet I could explain how it happened at every stage. Got their attention with something incredibly disgusting, funny and vile--then people kept coming back from reading it saying it was some kind of highbrow literary masterwork, and it felt like a comedy sketch.
"Guys, this is MY LIFE. I don't want to sue you. It's the coolest thing in the world. Salman Rushdie's agent requested it because this literary genius Stanford neuroscientist basically said 'I think it's like the best thing I've ever read?' like an idiot, like the episode. He's talented, you guys are actually talented, this book is weird and nobody ever thought it would sell, it means EVERYTHING TO ME. I love you. 'They did a 'South Park' about it' already makes it more relevant to pop culture than 10,000 pieces of shit no one cares about. Can you give me ANYTHING?"
Cold. Like killing Chris. Under orders, like the Macbeth scene from Season 1--"South Park" guys didn't want to get sued or then, have it be known they were dicks like that. Unfortunately for their personal brands, they just can't help themselves: they put everything in the show. From my book, to Bill Hader screaming at Trey Parker about his personal brand in 2012, to feeble-minded Reddittors who just think the TV is talking to me (my name is "Rick"--the season finale of "South Park" was just saying my name as much as possible--48 times, tied with "a," I analyzed a transcript--the TV is literally talking to me! That's the joke! You can go watch this right now, it's called "Spring Break.")
I don't want to destroy his reputation, but since he's made pretty clear he'll never admit this, now, should point "can you give me anything" and "Chris looked up to you" are not there for the audience, really--any viewer would almost nitpickingly point out the Chechen guy looked up to Barry, not Chris--no, it's there so Bill Hader can win Emmys, "using it." It really is kind of a scumbag move! And Barry is convincing that way: the guilt is fucking real, over SOMETHING. He obviously wrote the first season around that one scene. "I have this great emotional shit from when I felt like I ruined this guy's life. I can 'use it'!" Hader's great performance as a scumbag IS in itself scumbaggy, in a feedback loop.
But this is America, and Bill Hader IS a good guy, now--cuz he's on fuckin' TV. And I'm gonna use it.
Bill Hader felt like he murdered the guy who wrote the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs," which is actually called "Bebe's Tale" (like the "South Park" character,) which is why the character Bebe beat the shit out of Butters' "personal brand" last season. Butters sometimes stood for Bill Hader! They were worried this story would make them look like dicks. But between "Barry" and "South Park," I don't know which series of confessions is more obvious?
Scrotie (.) Biz in your browser for more!
He did, in fact, say that. He also tried to exclude him and pull him out a few times before that. Chris was so caught up in his 'I'm a hardass ex-marine' fantasy that he didn't see Barry's attempts to help for what they were. He wanted to be a badass marine and involved himself with the wrong people.
The 'I told you to get out of the car' was his last chance. He didn't realize it at the time, but it was. After that, things were going to end badly for him no matter what. While Barry is indeed saying that to alleviate his own guilt, there's also a kernel of hard truth in there that Chris cannot deny.
@@matheussberant, Chris wanted in on this so badly and Barry didn't want him to. Then he couldn't handle it and by doing so threatened Barry. Barry did what he had to. Chris is the bad guy in my opinion.
Man it kills me the way Chris tries to back-peddle when he realizes what Barry intends to do, but you can tell by the look on Barry's face that it's too late, and Chris still keeps trying. Man, bums me out every time.
Bums me out that Chris had all the smarts of a sack of potatoes

First three things don't matter because Barry shot him point blank as we see. So these things would match basically a suicide.
Also would the Trajectory of the round. People shot themselves in the side of the Head, in the front, put the gun in their Mouths... point is people shot themselves in some weird positions.
Don't know why you even bring up GSR. It is unreliable to read and interpret. You think everyone who shoots himself is calm and at peace with himself?
@@98tharmorcav You don't have LEO, crime scene or coronial experience. You've been watching too much CSI. The trajectory of the shot wouldn't reveal anything other then someone being shot from a horizontal angle at approximately eye level. Blood splatter would also be consistent with such a shot, again telling us nothing.
The head position, well i'm not going frame by frame to analysis a tv show, but unless location of the entry wound is impossible to pull off, no one's making a ruling. it looks more suspicious the less we see such wounds, but that alone is not enough to say it wasn't a suicide.
There are 2 things that indicate the shot wasn't self inflicted pretty solidly, 1 is the entry wound itself, as we know the actual range we know that the wound would indicate Intermediate range from a handgun, but several handguns would give us an inconclusive result, as powder tattooing varies greatly from firearm to firearm. Unless that gun in particular doesn't leave such marks from outside of a few centimeters, we simply don't have enough to rule one way or another.
2 is the actual telltale sign which is that his hand is holding a gun, its also how i know your full of shit, because you neglected to mention the 1 thing that lets us know right away that this is suspicious. To start with not only is it unusual for a suicide victim to be gripping the weapon with handguns its only 25%, But the way in which the hand is gripping the firearm simply inconsistent with suicide, so inconsistent that unless some dumbass cop or EMT on scene moved it before being photographed anyone who actually works with homicide cases on semi regular basis would treat the death as suspicious immediately.
there are also few other things outside of the crime scene itself that would lead also detectives to treat the death as suspicious.
these things combined with other evidence (such as fresh prints from the passenger, the shell casings resting location), which on it's own usual wouldn't be enough for ruling would now help support a homicide.
All up a pretty good depiction of a frame job and it's believable enough that such a murder could be missed given the right circumstances.
Louis Cypher How about the lack of prints on the mag, rounds themselves, and the inside of the firearm.
I love the attention to detail with these scenes. When Barry shoots Chris, he grabs his hands so there’s no sign of a struggle and it looks like he shot himself.
I didn't see that, nice catch
I figured that was so there was no chance he could try to push the gun away or fight back. His dominant hand, the one closest to Barry, was locked down so there was no way he could grab the gun or anything.
It’s not to show that he shot himself its a way of locking down the persons closest hand to you so you can use your firearm without worry of a struggle
@@117harper That is literally why Barry grabbed his hands, to prevent Chris from fighting back, and creating defensive wounds on his own body, which would tip off the authorities that he was murdered.

Huh? Chris never stops talking until he gets shot.
Ikr? N he is saying that he's going to the police lol
One of the things I love about this series is how it handles deaths, and how the drama isn't derived from Barry's kills themselves, but how completely casual it is. Like, he literally just killed Chris with the same effort it took to step out of the car...and that's what hurts Barry, that he's become this...creature that can kill even close friends with no hesitation.
Absolutely. Violence is almost never exciting in this show. It's terrifying. A lot of things that would be chopped up dramatized action sequences in other shows happen in real time with no score. And it's scarier that way.
I agree and disagree with this take.
The whole point is that it WASN'T an easy choice for Barry / that it WASN'T effortless.
He pleaded and begged and pushed multiple times for this guy to go away, to be quiet, to not make Barry have to kill him. Something he has never done with anyone else, specifically because he's always only killed "bad guys" so far (as far as he knows).
He reverts to a cold killing machine only when he has no other choice that he can see - and that absolutely messes him up afterward.
I get what you're going for, but "effortless"? Nah, this was one of the most painful things Barry's ever done.
@dumondaustin3694
Considering that he makes an exception for *SPOILER Crisneau, Barry is either a psychopath partial to some more than others or the writing inconsistent and the series should have concluded in the first season*
@@diamondjoemazing I'd say there's a difference between pain and effort in this context. A normal person who has never deliberately killed or seriously hurt anyone before would find murdering someone, especially a friend, both painful, and alot of effort to physically make themselves do against the instinctive compulsion not to. On the other hand, Barry feels pain and guilt from murdering people, especially his friend here, but he has killed so many people that he has completely deadened the instinctive compulsion against killing. So for Barry, despite it being painful, it is also effortless.
He hesitated for a couple minutes. You people are really obtuse.
What I love about this scene is how Chris is both extremely savvy and extremely unsavvy at the same time, and both manage to get him killed.
yep. psychos just don’t give a damn
Dont know what he was thinking. Him going to the cops mightve gotten his family killed
Give yourself whiplash by watching this scene and then a Stefon skit immediately after
Love doing that

Barry cared about him. He tried to protect him.
1:43 you can see the moment where Barry realizes he can kill Chris and get away with it right after chris reveals that his wife thinks he’s at the gym
Yes. Watched this 10 times before I noticed Barry's line of thinking on his face the moment Chris says that.
If you watch Bill Hader at 3:56 he does a very subtle move to the left like he's going to pull the gun, then hesitates for a second, then does it. It's like he tried to talk himself out of it one last time.
My favorite part of this clip is the 15-20 seconds where both men see the random vehicle in front of them and know what is about to happen but are forced to simply sit next to each other and wait. That small detail gave the audience a moment to just bask in the tension and emotion they are both feeling without it feeling like a forced pause of some kind. It's like watching something fall towards an inevitable crash landing; you know something bad is about to happen but all you can do is watch and wait.
Jordon i was first thinking maybe he wouldve had a chance if he got out then but Barry mightve just had to kill them all including the other people.

"Can you give me ANYTHING?"--Sally to Barry, in that scene that won the Emmy, after he murders his old marine buddy, with the agent in the audience.
The biggest literary agent in the world had requested my novel--the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs" from "South Park." The book that makes you puke, that's inexplicably REALLY good. Bill Hader was there, in the "South Park" writer's room.
That was a parody of a real book--that's why that episode made no sense, and people still ask Google if it's real, somehow. I had mailed it to the voice of Towelie. "Guys, this is MY LIFE. I don't want to sue you. It's the coolest thing in the world you did a 'South Park' about my book. Salman Rushdie's agent requested it, which isn't even supposed to be possible. You guys are actually talented, none of these hacks are, it means EVERYTHING TO ME. Can you give me ANYTHING?"
It was pretty cold--selfish--fiscal (they were afraid I would sue them,) or then maybe selfishly worse (they just didn't want this story out there, it made them look like dicks because they really were.)
What was it? It was the worst thing Bill Hader ever did to someone. "You don't have to know what child-molesting is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone"-Sally. The 12 different scenes where they run down the acting process: it points one place.
What was all that "use it" stuff that didn't quite go anywhere, for Barry the character? Bill Hader the guy is really using something for "murder." "Acting is truth."-Cousineau. The guilt is real. Which is how I came up with this, not some schizoid mania. I started watching "Barry" because I liked "Silicon Valley." "Oh wait, what could have happened in Bill Hader's career...you'd have to had really messed up someone's life, one time? Oh wait, he did write for 'South Park'? I guess there was that one time he ruined MY life? And I knew I was never gonna sue them, so my only option was to make them feel as guilty as I possibly could? Um."
Scrotie dot biz
It has A LOT more, including "South Park" pretty clearly aware of all this stuff and trolling me again, last season.
Remember "acting is truth," "use it," "you don't have to know what child molestation is like, you just have to know what it's like to hurt someone."
Bill Hader really hurt someone and he's using it...duh? I mean I wouldn't have even wondered if it wasn't brought up 15 times as what acting is, and then it kinda went nowhere, for Barry, if not Bill Hader? What's "murder"? It's the worst thing Bill Hader ever did to someone. Here's what it might be:
"Can you give me ANYTHING?"--Sally to Barry, in that scene that won the Emmy, after he murders his old marine buddy, with the agent in the audience.

That was a parody of a real book--that's why that episode made no sense, and people still ask Google if it's real, somehow. I had mailed it to the voice of Towelie. I thought I had enough evidence (there's even more, now.) But nobody believed it? Or understood? Or cared?
"Guys, this is MY LIFE. I don't want to sue you. It's the coolest thing in the world. Salman Rushdie's agent requested it because this literary genius Stanford neuroscientist basically said 'I think it's like the best thing I've ever read?' like an idiot, like the episode. He's talented, you guys are actually talented, this book is so weird and nobody ever thought it would sell, it means EVERYTHING TO ME. I love you. 'They did a 'South Park' about it' already makes it more relevant to pop culture than 3,000 pieces of shit no one cares about that won literary awards. Can you give me ANYTHING?"
Cold. Under orders, like the Macbeth scene from Season 1--"South Park" guys didn't want to get sued or then, have it be known they were dicks like that. Unfortunately for their personal brands, they just can't help themselves: they put everything in the show. From my book, to Bill Hader screaming at Trey Parker about his personal brand, to you feeble-minded cunts who think the TV is talking to me (my name is "Rick"--the season finale of "South Park" was just saying my name as much as possible--the TV is literally talking to me!)
Bill Hader felt like he murdered the guy who wrote the real "Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs," which is actually called "Bebe's Tale" (like the "South Park" character,) which is why the character Bebe beat the shit out of Butters' "personal brand" last season. Butters sometimes stood for Bill Hader! They were worried this story would make them look like dicks! But between "Barry" and "South Park," I don't know which series of confessions is more obvious?

At 1:39 you can see the exact moment Barry realizes what he has to do, and the rest of the scene he's looking for a reason not to.
yentalin12345 Why though? Why is the lie to his wife about the gym so important? I don’t get it
@@s1me007
That's the moment Barry realizes that nobody knows where Chris is, so its his perfect moment.
No its not. Look at 1:50. Look at Barry's reaction. Its defeat. He no longer feels like he has a choice. He is resigned to silence Chris, because Chris decided to sing.
@@s1me007 I dont thinkn it's the gym line... I think Barry is asking why the guy said unequivocally that he is going to the police.
@@foodank_atr817 I think it is. Chris got scared and was starting to catch on when he yelled, so he said he lied about that and actually told his wife that he was going to see Barry
The scariest part of this scene for me is when Chris slowly realizes the impact of what he just said. He is acting like any rational and normal human would in that situation and do the "right" thing and go to the police. The way Barry looks away with disgust at himself and what he had to do when Chris changes his tune is heartbreaking.
Bill Hader's acting in this scene is absolutely master class. This scene was absolutely disturbing and beautifully shot and acted.
1:55 - 2:30 Is perfection. The moment Barry realizes what he has to do, and the moment Chris realizes what's about to be done......just phenomenal writing and acting.
Okay...no more watching clips of this show...I gotta watch the whole thing now.
Do it. It's great. So many twists, quite entertaining.
No kidding man. I hadn't even heard of it before tonight.
I had exactly the same thought!
I've done that with so many shows! I watch all of the clips and never finish or start the show because I've ruined it lmao
Same damn. Binge watched the first season tonight gonna binge Season 2 tomorrow night.
You can tell how hard this was for Barry, he really didn’t want to kill him it didn’t feel right but he had to do it. And the way he says “why’d you have to say that” and “I told you to get out of the car” you can tell how hard this was
I mean to be honest HARD would be Barry turning himself in, and living the rest of his life in prison. At his core Barry is a selfish dude even if he is Bill fucking Hader and a nice dude :P
@@happy_mask_salesman Um no, that would still be easy to do, just time consuming and you don’t have to sacrifice the rest of your life for someone to not be selfish. He told him to get out of the car. He replied with “I don’t care if you die, I’m going to the cops.” At that point, HE was the one who made a selfish choice and there was nothing either of them could do
@@michaelthatoker7125 Exactly. Barry warned that him going to the cops would result in ALOT of people dying, and all Chris responded with "I dont care"
@@michaelthatoker7125 to their cores. Both of them were selfish.
@@michaelthatoker7125 Moon Kid was right, this entire series is about Barry doing everything to escape the reality that he really should be in jail. That's what makes it so good, there's so much hope for redemption but he keeps thinking it doesn't come with accountability.
THANK GOD THEY BROKE THE GLASS!!! in every movie that someone gets shot, they never account for the trajectory of the bullet through the body. Always show blood splattering into the window, but never the bullet. I guess the bullet dissapears? Finally someone thought through how guns work. Bravo Barry
Yea man....common ballistics. After the bullet goes through the skull it vaporized 😳🤔
Nah bullets don't go through cleanly....... They sometimes break apart when they hit bone. Some people get shot in the torso and have the bullet bounce around inside them then exit out their leg. Moral of the story. Just don't know where that bullet going
Some bullets are made to break on impact to cause less damage when you miss Great home defense bullets
But the blood spot didn't match. At all.
Many small pistol calibers, especially hollow points, won't penetrate far anyways (assuming it wasn't deflected some). I wouldn't say not seeing an exit wound makes it look fake.
This moment hit like some of the most emotional moments of breaking bad. Barry's probably the only show to give me a similar vibe to what breaking bad did. I really hope another season is coming.

@@brucekaraus7330 Gotcha
Erik S Disagree. That final stretch with Gene and Fuches went fucking incredibly.
AM Revered It redeemed the season for me. Up until that point season 2 was not giving me any of the same feelings the first did. Felt like they were leaning more towards the comedy angle this time around when the first season was a perfect balance.
This was the scene I realize Bill Hader was more than just a comedic actor. This dude had genuine emotional chops that kept me on the edge of my seat for this whole scene. We all know what going to happen but it sucks to watch it happen. And then how he incorporates his now trauma into his acting is brilliant. God I love this show
This is one of my favorite scenes of all time. Movie, television, whatever. It's insanely well written, well acted, so subtle, so well thought out. It's so, so good by all involved.
Lets break down all the subtexts of this excellent scene:
- at 1:40, Barry makes a mental note of the fact that Chris' wife doesn't know he's with Barry. He isn't planning anything, it just kind of popped into his head
- at 2:00, Barry realizes his friend isn't trying to convince him that they should go to the cops; He's telling him that he is doing exactly that. Chris is scared and desperate and plans something stupid.
- at 2:06, note the defeated, blown away expression by Barry. This is shock and resignation. Barry realizes what he has to do. And he wishes, above all else, that Chris didn't mention his plans, because now Barry has to shut him up.
- at 2:14, Barry's resignation is now anger. Its like the 5 stages of grief for a murderer.
- at 2:20, Chris realizes he isn't in a discussion. This is a dangerous situation and he needs to leave. Barry is now trying to shift the blame to assuage his own guilt for what's about to happen.
- at 2:30, Chris starts backtracking. He swears not to say anything, and even realizes he gave away the fact that nobody knows where they are.
- at 3:06 A car pulls up. Both men know nothing can be done until it leaves. There's tension in the air as we wait for the area to be devoid of witnesses. Chris tries to appeal to Barry's character, but Barry sees through this.
3:06 would have been Chris' chance to run. But he was counting on Barry's morals... Which seem to be degrading
Beautiful breakdown
@monokhem It was stupid because he most certainly would get jail time, along with the Bolivians discovering his involvement and killing his family. Barry was right on all counts (save the murdering)
@monokhem barry litterly said if he went to the cops they (Bolivians) would try to kill their families. All they had to do was stay quiet because he took care of the crime scene and no one would know. I prob would make my decisions based on how well i knew barry.
monokhem but... he’s right though. If Chris just doesn’t say anything, they both walk away clean.
When he was talking about his wife and then the cops, I knew poor guy was gonna die.
EMPTY FACE also says it in the title
@@ethandowning6028 I meant when I saw it in the show, there was no title there, I guess
EMPTY FACE same watching the show I was thinking ‘it’s over’
“Poor guy” was a dumbass I don’t feel bad
What’s so scary about this scene is how real it is. The acting the deductions, the logic, no background music, the glass breaking behind Chris after the gun shot, Barry holding his hand back before pulling the trigger, and the tension.
Also Chris’s sudden panic as he goes into a bargaining phase during his last moments
This scene is top tier acting and writing from Bill Hader. Just the processing of Barry's thoughts as Chris rambles on is incredible, but it's always been the casual walk off after killing him that stuck with me because it further solidifies just how easy it is for Barry to take a life. He walks away, hands in pockets as if he didn't just kill a guy and at that a former friend, husband, and father. With Season 3 finally done, this moment pointed towards Barry possibly being far beyond redemption. What a fucking show.
The cold calculated acting is great. I remember seeing interviews with Michael Cain talking about how you act even when not saying anything. There are moments where subtle moments of thinking shine through. Hader is a bit over the top with even just the silence, it's crazy fun to watch.
why'd YOU JUST SAY THAT?!
2:19 - This is the "Oh shit, I'm alone with a professional Hitman and I just pissed him off" face
Saijun definitely
He actually didn’t piss him off at all. It was more “Oh shit, I’m alone with a professional hitman and I just said something stupid”. Barry didn’t get angry over the police. He got angry because Chris said his wife didn’t know he was with Barry and he told her he’d go to the gym. The moment he said that he took the cuffs out of Barry’s hand and there was no other justification to not kill him. And that’s why Barry is angry that he said THAT, and not all the other shit about coming clean.
Intense acting, love it when the guy changes his story because he knew his life was in jeopardy, even changed the story about telling his wife he was with him
Bill Hader's acting right as Chris started confessing was amazing.
...I told you to get out of the car, man
This was the "letting Jane die" moment of this show. I dont see how Barry has a happy ending after this
killing Jane was much worse.
@Mr7Reality He broke into her house and rolled her over on her back causing her to die. That's murder 1.
If he "he didn’t do anything" Jane would be alive.
@Mr7Reality You are factually incorrect.
@Mr7Reality He shoves her over on her back to get to Jesse.
@@alphanerd7221 He didn't roll her over on her back what are you talking about? He was trying to wake Jesse up and she rolled over on her back, literally could have happened at any point, I toss and turn when I sleep as well as many other people. You are factually incorrect.
This scene feels more like something from a horror movie than a comedy.
Dark comedy
I love that half of the show is Barry trying to become a successful actor when here, Bill Hader has portrayed probably some of the best acting that I've ever seen in my entire life. It feels like you're watching someone's life instead of feeling like you're watching a tv show.
Chris goes from "I'm coming clean" to "it's cool, I'll be quiet about it" cuz he realized he fucked up and he had to fake it so that barry wouldn't kill him, and Barry had no choice but to kill him cuz he knew chris' sudden change in attitude was a lie so he could stay alive.

The best acting I’ve seen in my life, this scene hit me like nothing else ever has. The “why did you say that” is so intense and real that it stunned me the first time I watched it. Best acting and I’ll stand by that.
Barry: I'm gonna do what's called a PRO-HITMAN MOVE!
Breathtaking. This is Breaking Bad levels of good. Reminds me of the neck/locker scene
@monokhem fuck off. no one expects proper grammar in the youtube comment section ever. its just your lazy ass comeback because you know hes right and youre just an ass.
monokhem “you aren’t qualified to have an opinion.” Yeah, well you know what your qualified to go fuck yourself buddy. Fucking asshole.

Breaking Bad was shit
@monokhem "you aren't qualified to have an opinion" then a personal attack as well? lol get off your high horse. People have different opinions. Don't shoot someone down over theirs
The car arrival at 3:08 makes this scene even more chilling, a very impactful subtext. At 3:40 you can see the guy grasping his final straws and out of mind after seeing his last hope to escape (a witness leverage) drive away. Fantastic scene direction and acting, 10/10.
I thought it was the tension of he didn't know if Barry called this guy to take care of him. And when he saw the random get in his car and drive away, he was relieved for a second.
@@akhnatenpage4854 Not at all lol.
In that moment, Chris could have quickly gunned their car straight into that other one and caused a deliberate crash, forcing other people between himself & Barry.

This was the part for me where Barry’s character was beyond redemption
2:22 is a really spine chilling deflection. Right after blowing up, he's so quick to shift blame.
2:26 "I told you to get out of the car man." that sad tone, u know what's coming.
"I'm going to the cops and telling them everything, and If I gotta do some, fine... but I'm coming clean!"
Congratulations on signing your own death warrant, Chris.
Can we just appreciate what a great actor Bill Hader is? He has just a few lines in this scene, but his physicality and intensity is everything. We already knew he was a comedic genius, but who knew he could pull off a character with so much nuisance and weight. He’s probably the last person you’d think to cast in the role, but he fucking nails every scene, and I can’t imagine any other actor playing the character.
Oh man, what a brilliant scene. I’ve watched it dozens of times over the last couple of years and it gets my heart racing every single time. It’s a perfect scene. Wow.
Such great dark characters come from comedians, this gets darker than breaking bad
People forget that comedy at it's core comes from a dark place. Comedy is dark. It gets darker the more your morals come into play and what you're acceptable with. Think about it, even the most benign jokes are plays off our own mortality.
I agree. This is some next level shit
The more you watch the more messed up and intriguing it becomes.
I mean idk about darker than breaking bad they kinda liquidfied a kid in that show
True
Never tell a hitman you are going to snitch. Dumb ass move.
3:27 I like that he's not even listening here, he's really just waiting for the witnesses to leave
Starting right now, I am binging Barry all week!
Bring on the next season!!
0:42 "They'll go after your family"
From what we've seen, the gangsters in the show are pretty pragmatic, and will kill only those who (in their twisted minds) deserve to or need to die. They aren't the kind of cartoony villains who hold loved ones hostage. Barry is lying because he sees Chris' desperation to go to the cops and get rid of his guilt, and he sees that Chris is probably more than willing to risk his life to do it, as long as he dies with a clean(er) conscience. Barry knows that his only chance of talking Chris out of it is to convince him that snitching would put his family in danger. It doesn't work. Such a sad scene in such an incredible show. Okay now stop reading comments and watch the damn show.
This scene was so heartbreaking. He knew that Chris needed to be kept quiet but he didn't want to do it because they were friends and Barry didn't even want to kill a fellow Marine in the first place. The realization on Bill's face... That's amazing acting right there.
The way he holds his hand that he could defend himself with. The confidence. Damn, truly professional.
i hate, absolutely HATE how underrated this show is.
I've legit had to lie down and rethink after some of the scenes (this included). i love how they show this stuff the way it is. barry isn't some lovable, only the right amount of bad to be termed morally good guy who only kills "bad" men -- he's a complicated, f*cked up human being who will do whatever he can to save himself, but also a part of him simultaneously wants to change. i didn't expect him to kill chris, honestly. especially because he was all like "i wont kill a marine yada yada yada", and didn't kill the other guy either but here you actually see the guy for who he is --- a stone-cold murderer. the show is unfiltered and dark when necessary and funny other times. i love that they haven't tried to make hardcore stuff like death, depression and violence comedic but more real and raw. and i still find myself rooting for him which is crazy. it's a beautiful show and bill hader is just BRILLIANT as always.
BARRY seriously deserves more and better marketing, its truly special and i cant wait for season 3!
Well when you go off the air for three years it's on you.
Is it really a good show to watch?
Well, then you should feel good because it's not underrated at all. It's received 44 emmy nominations and 9 wins. It is has a 98% critic rating, and an 89% audience score.
@@kutulu1976 People love to say underrated even about things that are highly rated and sometimes even over rated.
Barry didnt say a word after he realized what had to be done
Yeah he did. He said why'd you say that not once buy twice.. smh
This didn’t even age bad this just is bad from the start.
He screamed “Why did you just say that!” twice and said “I told you to get out of the car.” after he knew he was going to kill him. You aren’t very observant.
🤨🤨🤨🤨
I personally think in this scene, at 2:30, after Barry shouts at Chris, Chris realizes he ultimately cannot change Barry's mind, and so fearing that Barry might kill him then and there for saying that he'll come to the police, Chris decides to lie about not going. Barry (already resigned to kill Chris), having practiced somewhat in acting, sees through this, and his expressions afterwards shows his pity and sadness. Chris's lie merely further convinces Barry that his must kill Chris. I like viewing this scene with this interpretation more, though others probably read this scene differently
I'm pretty sure that when Barry yells 'why did you say that' it's not the anger that scares Chris, it's the fact that he just realised what he told Barry.
'Nobody knows where I am, nobody knows that I came to meet you."
You can literally see Barry's face drop as he realises that he can make a clean kill here. He doesn't _want_ to, but Chris literally just told him that this is his only chance.
That's why Chris backpedals as soon as he realizes what he implied. 'Actually my wife totally knows where I am, and also I just changed my mind and i'm not going to the cops. There's no need to do anything drastic.'
But by that point it's too late. Barry knows he's just saying that because he's scared, and as soon as he leaves the car, Chris will go to the police.
Um pretty sure that's how the scene is supposed to be interpreted lol, but thanks capt obvious
Oh wow, so smart captain obvious. In an attempt to sound smart you fked up one thing though - he didn't need acting classes to see through a victim's bullshit.
Jesus that’s how it’s supposed to be read you dips lmao
THIS SCENE IS EVERYTHING! 15/10 *CHEF’S KISS* THE CORRELATION TO MACBETH, THE ACTING, THE LINES, THE GRADUAL BUILD UP THEN BLOW UP,-VERY CLIMACTIC, THE SMALL DETAILS, GODDAMNNNN I’M IN LOVE WITH THIS SCENE SO MUCH ✨ PEFRECTION ✨
I love how Barry holds Chris' hand on the steering wheel just before he kills him. Not only does it show that Barry is a professional who has done this many times before but it also comes off as an apologetic/merciful gesture of holding his hand as he dies.
he held Chris' hand down to prevent him from fighting back with his dominant hand
umm what you sayyyyy
*slow motion movements*
*mmm
Dude got me crying at this hahaha
Ahahahahahahahahahahah
Hahah yoooooooo
This scene was a life lesson to me.
If you are going to do a unsafe choice. Commit totally. and learn what exactly you are getting into. Barry did give him a chance and he made his decision. He just really had no clue and said he would Get Barry's back.... He lost his cool. Barry did the smart thing but it was wrong.
Exactly..If it was me I would've taken that shit to the grave. Barry gave him an out. No one wants to be a pussy..that's reality. Commiting 100% was the only thing he could've done after that.
No half measures.
Buy the ticket, take the ride.
Another lesson: if you plan to run, you better not tell the person you're running from.
In reality if you have something on someone bad they are just going to kill you and are planning that from the start. So you really can't get into any of this bs and expect to live. And there is only so much you can do alone, so if you want to not die and not be in jail then it's not much of an option.
This is some of the best acting i have seen in a while. The tension in this scene gives me chills.
God damn. Bill Hader gets a lot of praise for his acting in this show, deservedly so, but everyone around him also does an incredible job. The editing is fantastic as well.
Sorry for the obnoxious gushing but I just really love this show.

I never realized the importance of the car at 3:06 but when I watched this again it all made since. Was literally his last chance to run out of the car and try to escape. The silence during that part is unbelievable and breathtaking
right. Idk if he didn't wanna embarrass himself by fleeing or what but him just watching the car stop and go was absolutely crushing

I know this is like a deep moment and stuff but can we just appreciate Bill’s profile for a second he is just gorgeous
this is single handedly one of the best scenes in Barry
One of the best scenes out of Season 1, such a tense and gut-wrenching moment for the viewer. As soon as Chris starts going off, Barry along with the audience come to realize what has to be done, and when it happens? Damn.

Wasn’t he in Freddy vs Jason too? Lol
Holy shh.. cow
"Fuck her for me!"
I remember watching this scene and it was so tense it honestly did not feel like 4 minutes. Felt like an eternity.
2:27 that’s literally Barry saying he has to kill him now. The acting in this scene is amazing, I need to watch the show after seeing this. Absolutely electric.
This scene is so real and it's dilemma between two friends where one is scared and the other is desensitized to murder and it's so tragic what barry has to do to keep his secret
I love how you can see him look at Barry out of the corner of his eye @ 3:10 this scene was amazing
One of the best scenes in modern television.
It's ironic that if Barry had just killed the Marine he hated, he never would have had to kill the only friend he could remember
This leads to an amazing scene in the acting class that is just insane
This was an extremely powerful scene in Barry. The acting here was superb.
Definitely one of the harder scenes to watch on television.
Damn the part that got me is when Barry looks at him with those sad eyes & says “I told you to get out of the car man…” 😢
This was such a great scene. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
