Bill Hader and Alec Berg hinted at where "Barry" was headed when the title character, looking more haggard than ever, turned a hit into an impulse kill in the opening scene.

At the end of a season spent dodging the vengeful loved ones of the people he's killed, both Barry and Fuches are getting what's coming to them.
