However, from Fuches’ reaction, it seems like he has a far more devious plot in mind than merely killing Barry. Earlier in the episode, Fuches grows frustrated after hearing about Barry’s supposed reconciliation with Cousineau. Therefore, Fuches could try to hurt Cousineau in a bid to get Barry’s attention and seek revenge. Ultimately, it is clear that Barry’s relationship with Fuches and Cousineau has reached a point of no repair. This, in turn, could lead Barry down a path of no return.
