Sterling Archer (H Jon Benjamin) is still getting used to all the way things have changed in the three years in which he was in a coma and the surprises just keep coming. On the next episode of 'Archer', he discovers that his greatest enemy - the cyborg secret agent Barry (Dave Willis) now works on his side and he needs Archer's help. It's a definite mixed feeling for Archer because while he's forced to team up with a man he hates, he's soon going to be able to vent a lot of his frustration because of the mission? To take out an entire factory filled with Barry robots.

When the two enemies last met, Barry was holding Mallory Archer (Jessica Walter) hostage to force Archer to help Barry track down his own mother. While the two had a temporary truce to track her down, it was an uneasy alliance and they did not exactly part as friends. Now, however, it would appear that all is forgiven, as Archer walks into work to find Barry there, laughing with Archer's colleagues as if all their rivalry was water under the bridge. Archer, however, hasn't had three years to adjust to the idea of a good Barry, immediately opening fire on him in the promo for the next episode. "Barry works for us, now," says Mallory, but Archer's having none of it.

The mission that he's being charged with does nothing to allay Archer's suspicions. The group is teaming up with Barry, who will be going to a factory filled with evil Barry robots intent on turning the entire world into Barrys. Archer and his team will be surrounded by Barry cyborgs and androids of all types, many with their own dangerous modifications and as far as Archer is concerned, it's only a matter of time before Barry betrays them all. You can watch the promo for the episode below:
