Regardless of the outcome, that last wordless coda to “The Wizard” is another example that “Barry” understands the power of silence... When everyone stops talking, it’s easier to hear the consequences.

Rated: B+

AV Club

Though it feels less revolutionary than last week’s descent into the sickly underbelly of Barry’s nightmares, this week doesn’t lack innovation.

All of this is very effective, and at times -- particularly anything involving Stephen Root swaggering around in a very tight undershirt -- quite funny, and a relief from the unrelenting bleakness of last week’s episode.

This latest episode showcases Hader’s creative directing choices and the show’s penchant for crafting master-level tension.

It’s horrifying. In this latest episode, that sense of horror deepens, both in terms of what happens and... what only seems to happen.

There’s a wickedness to the writing this year. While the show has never shied from its bruising introspection or anxiety-inducing moments, season four is exceptional in how scathing the scripts have been.
