In the last episode, Chuck broke up rather abruptly with Hannah. Is that the last we’ll see of Kristen Kreuk? I certainly hope not. Maybe Morgan will get a shot at her. In another unpleasant development, Sarah and Shaw seem to be advancing their relationship. This week’s episode synopsis seems to be more bad news for Chuck, as well:

Suddenly, Chuck cannot flash data, so he is left behind when Shaw, Casey and Sarah go on a mission, but he gets into a sticky situation back at the base.

Wow.

Morgan finding out about Chuck, the return of Jeffster, AND Ellie in a bikini?

Great episode or greatest episode?

A great Buy More-centric episode, directed by no less than Zach Levi himself. It was inevitable that Morgan find out about Chuck’s secret identity, but at this rate, everyone but Ellie is going to know that Chuck is a spy.

Jeffster rocks!

…and directed by Chuck himself, Zachary Levi. Guess he knows fanservice…

I just rewatched. Can’t believe I forgot about Jeff and the apple in his mouth. His expressions are awesome.

Now about Shaw… is there anyone that actually likes him yet?

If Casey turns out to be evil I will seriously be upset.
