He passed the tests with flying colors, but the daily performance of his job is hindered by a tendency to overeat and fall asleep on duty.

Chapter Five: Shadows on the Street Corner

Barton went with Chelmey to the Thames Arms to listen to Layton's explanation of the mystery. He ordered a meal as he listened to Layton reveal the barkeep as being Dimitri Allen in disguise; when Layton proved Dimitri's bomb threat to be a hoax; when Dimitri explained his true motives for trying to rebuild the time machine (to go back in time to the accident at the Institute of Polydimensional Physics to save Claire); and finally when Layton revealed that Future London was fake, being built in a cavern below the real London, and that being so, Future Luke being an imposter.
Chapter Thirteen: The Stronghold of Madness
He remained on the ground with Chelmey, Dimitri, Don Paolo and Celeste when Layton and Luke used the Laytonmobile to board the fortress to save Flora. He handcuffed himself to Dimitri, placing him under arrest, and witnessed Don Paolo's flying machine take Celeste aboard the fortress.

Whilst Layton, Luke, Flora and Celeste rewired the fortress generator, Barton helped Chelmey oversee a mass evacuation off all the residents of the future London via the clock shop.
