Chuck- Casey Wants to Chat

Morgan- "You went on missions?"
Awesome- "You haven't?"
Morgan- "What? Of course...dude...I...never saw you out there."

Since the Olympics ended, Chuck has had a few landmark events occur in a row. First it was the whole Chuck/Hanna and Sara/Shaw, then it was Morgan finding out about Chucky's spy life and this week we got what may be a short-lived firing of John Casey.

Before tonight we didn't know much about the growling one's background. Tonight we found out that he had a fiancé and child before being turned into one the best black operatives this country has ever seen. Although Casey has been as hard as they come over the three seasons we've been watching him, you could always tell there was a softer side to the Colonel. In this week's ep he proved it with his explanation to Chuckles near the end of the ep.

After the crew defeats Casey's old boss and saves his ex-fiancé, Miss McCue simply asks the man formerly known as Alex Coburn, "Do I know you?" Casey walks away from the love of his life and what seems to be his daughter. Once Casey is relieved of his duty and suffering through civilian life on his first night out, Chuck pleads with him to give his fiancé another try. The Colonel tells the Intersect boy that he made his decision for love of country over love a long time ago and it is too late to go back now. We can all see how much this saddens him, but his advice to Chucky is that Walker is a great girl and it is not too late for him yet. Great stuff John!

Cut to Sarah in D.C. saying she wants to move there. Ouchtown, population Chuck!

Other Points

- Another Morgan quote of the night, "I thought you were KGB...or maybe a ninja."

- How would doing back flips down that corridor help at all?

- Somebody explain to me how Chuck would actually believe John Casey was an actual member of The Ring?

- I don't like the Chuck that comes out when he takes this pill. I don't want two stone cold killers. We already have Casey for that.

- I actually thought we might be losing Ellie and Awesome to Doctors Without Borders for the rest of the season. Thank God!
