Quotes

Chuck Bartowski: There's something you need to know about me, Shaw. There's nothing in my life that I care about more than my friends and my family. Of course, I don't expect you to understand, being the spy that you are. I'm sure that you don't care about anybody.
Shaw: Families and friends make us vulnerable. Make us unable to pull the trigger. And that puts everyone in greater danger. Just ask your partner here. She'll tell you the same thing.
Sarah Walker: Sometimes it helps to know you've got something to lose.

Best episode of Chuck I've ever seen

I loved this episode. I thought all the actors did an astounding job, there was non stop action, so many things to laugh at and the script was amazing. I feel that the writers have created something truly special.

I will definitely watch this episode more than once, I was blown away. :)

My favorite characters in this episode were Lester and Chuck. I couldn't tear my eyes away this whole episode, and I am waiting on the edge of my seat for the next one. This episode receives a 10/10 from me. :)
