In Barry’s case, what this tells me is that going on scheduled dates isn’t a normal occurrence for him, otherwise he would be more likely to remember the time of his date. To solve Barry’s memorization issue he just needs to schedule more dates, thus keep his short term memory up to date and functioning fluidly.
