Very predictable, but as stated, yet another fun episode. Saw the whole Jill thing a mile away, but who didn't.

It's unbelievable Chuck's been so close a few times, but never ends up with things working out with the womens. I felt bad for Sarah at the end of the episode.

Will it ever work out 'tween those two?

My only question was, why would Jill help them obtain the list of Fulcrum agents if she knew they'd find her on it?

She did gain admittance to their secret lair beneath the Orange Orange. She also needed them to trust her.

Jill/Fulcrum wanted the list just as bad as the CIA. She thought it would be destroyed once she allowed herself to be taken hostage. And she never knew Chuck made a copy. It was also probably her primary mission all along to get the intersect (Chuck).

Another great episode.

It sure looked like chuck was giving Sarah a motorboat in the shower. Yvonne Strahovsky mmmmmmmmmmm.

Casey in the hotel uniform cracked me up. Reminded me of the flying monkeys in The Wizard of Oz.

Loved it. Probably, for me, the most entertaining thing I watch this season.

I think he realized the same thing with his slight double-take.

That really makes no sense. Casey and Sarah were running through the decrypted Fulcrum list to find federal intelligence inside operatives (double-agents). That they would hit upon Jill's identity in that capacity was silly. Unless we're supposed to believe she was a federal agent undercover with Guy AND a Fulcrum agent. A bit of a stretch.

So from the encounter between Morgan and Emmett, we're supposed to believe that Chuck and Morgan are only 23? (Morgan replied to a question as "all 23 years of my life".) Please. He is 30 and Zachary Levi is 28.

^That referred to how long they have been FRIENDS. They presumably met in Kindergarten or something, which would put them around 28ish. Solid (but predictable) episode, but that SHOWER scene makes me forgive all... Yvonne!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOT.

Between the shower fight with Richie, and now this, I think they would be wise the find a way to put her in a shower EVERY episode.

also, wouldn't Chuck have flashed on Jill last episode if she was any kind of agent or did she become Fulcrum (surpassing a regular agent status) after he became the intersect? but then if she was dating Brice logic would suggest she was some knid of agent from college and should have been in the registry.

no?
