Outline

Barry reconnects with Chris, an old military friend. Fuches gives Barry his next job: to raid a Bolivian stash house, but Barry believes it to be too dangerous and backs out. Sally prepares for an audition with her agent; she rejects his sexual advances, and he claims he was only joking. At the audition, Sally is told by the casting assistant that her agent does not represent her and is sent home; devastated, Sally cries in her car. Detective Moss meets with Gene at a restaurant, expecting pertinent information about the case; realising it is actually a date, she stays anyway. Police techs manage to unlock the lipstick camera, revealing footage of a tall, unrecognisable figure who, unbeknownst to them, is Barry. At a party, Barry presents Sally with an expensive new laptop as a gift, but she is made uncomfortable by the extravagant gift from a man she barely knows. Barry invites Chris, who brings two other rowdy Marines, Vaughn and Taylor. Barry continues to misinterpret his relationship with Sally. He refers to her as his girlfriend when speaking with the Marines that Chris brought along and they tell him to assert himself and tell the man Sally is chatting with to back off. He does so, which angers Sally as she does not like being treated like property. After the party, Taylor finds Barry’s intel on the stash house raid, and tells Barry he wants in.
