Keaton was frustrated by Barry's stance. He took a moment to calm himself before saying, “I have a safe place
here. Why don’t you send that guy over to me?”
However, Barry no longer felt that Keaton was trustworthy, so he replied, “Forget it. | don’t want to drag you into
this. I'll take care of him myself.” Then, Barry ended the call.
