Barry was not nervous.
Correction: Barry was not admitting to himself that he was nervous.
Which is why he had made sure the big screen monitor was functioning in perfect honor about a dozen times in the last half hour. He also made sure the snacks he had purchased (various types of chocolate) were in perfect organized order and had tested the popcorn button on the microwave about five times to make sure the popped vs un-popped kernels was a good ratio.
To sum up: Barry was totally nervous.
At some point someone was eventually going to show up but until then he was trying to make sure that everything was perfect.
[For one and potentially others!]
