Chuck 2.0

Awesome's zoned out on the couch in front of the TV when Ellie drops her keys on the table behind him. He freaks out, and she's all, "Are you okay?" He pretends he was just caught up in a fascinating article on kidney failure. She says he's been jittery and not himself ever since the generalissimo's party. She says he doesn't rock climb or ride bikes, but just lays around. "It's like being married to Morgan." Except, you know, hotter. Awesome says he pulled a hammy and will be back on the bike in no time. She wonders if she can ask him something about Chuck, and Awesome's like, "Yeah, but he's your brother. I can't imagine I'd know anything." She asks if Devon knows if Chuck went to Paris, since she found a claim ticket in his luggage (what was she doing snooping in his luggage, anyway?). Awesome's like, "Yeah, he mentioned it." Ellie wonders why he wouldn't tell her, since he's always wanted to go to Paris. She asks if he got to see the Eiffel Tower, and Awesome's like, "Yeah. No. I don't know. I am late for rounds." She asks what he's hiding, and he says, "What? Like a conspiracy?" Then tries a different tactic: "That I love you? Which I am not hiding. Let's talk about this later. There are kidneys failing as we speak." Yep, still a bad liar.

Buy More. Jeff and Lester are asking Hannah out. Jeff wants her to hang in his van, but Lester says he's disease-free and doesn't think Jeff can say the same thing. Chuck rescues Hannah and reminds her that he's safe and everyone else is dangerous. He's ready to start the Bartowski Tutorial now, but then Casey tells him it's yogurt time again. He has to go, and she asks about the tutorial. He says lesson 1 is to never work hungry. On his way out, Chuck asks Morgan to keep an eye on Hannah, since the vultures are circling. Instead, Morgan asks Jeffster! to come to his office, which is actually the broom closet (he empties the brooms every morning; although, logically, if the brooms fit somewhere during the workday, you'd think they could also stay in that place at night when there's no one in the store working, so why move them back at night?). Morgan's wedged a desk into the closet, so he has to crawl over it to get behind it and sit. Jeffster! sit, and Morgan tells them there will be no dating in the workplace. Lester applies logic: "You dated Anna." But Jeff applies his constitutional rights, one of which he says is to fornicate. Morgan tells them the thing is that he likes Hannah and would like them to lay off. Jeff's okay with this if he can sleep over with Morgan and Chuck twice a week. Morgan agrees. Lester's condition is that, for the next hire, Morgan needs to find Lester a wife: "a woman of color. Preferably Padma Lakshmi." Morgan: "Done." Then Morgan asks Jeffster! to use their stalking skill set to find out everything there is to know about Hannah. Lester: "Consider her stalked." I know some people were creeped out that they'd make stalking funny, but I would have to point out that they've also made people getting killed and beaten up funny, too. You can't really apply real-life logic to this show, in other words. And, anyway, stalking is funny.
