8 Surprising Moments From "Atlanta" Season 2 5 of 8
Adventures with Bibby ("Barbershop")
"Atlanta" fans know that Paper Boi isn't here to mess around. However, Bibby, his frenetic barber, is. And it's amazing.
The most surprising part of this episode is how far Glover and the writers are willing to take the central gag: Bibby brings an exasperated Paper Boi with him somewhere for just one more stop before finishing his haircut (left in comically half-finished condition), pulling one over on someone, getting lambasted, and moving on to the next victim. We even meet Bibby's son along the way. By the time Bibby finally wraps up Paper Boi's long-delayed haircut and the odyssey is complete, we're left to contemplate how a con man such as Bibby can still be a somewhat empathetic figure. Paper Boi, who didn't leave a tip, would probably emphatically disagree.
