Paul usually bosses around Barry by making him do most of the work while he skives off to put his feet up. He is usually the leader of the two in most of the jobs they take up. In earlier episodes Paul was usually the brains and kept Barry out of trouble recently he became more of a dumb leader whilst Barry was more of the smart sidekick.
