Awesome asks Chuck how he found time to do this since he worked all day, and Chuck says it's a juggling act, but then calls Awesome into the kitchen to tell him the truth, but Awesome's like, "No!" He doesn't want to know anything, because he can't lie to Ellie anymore. He says he's not like Chuck. Chuck tells him to just tell Ellie "I don't know," which isn't a lie. At dinner, Ellie tells Chuck she's been lying for years about liking this dish, but it's finally good. She asks Devon if he can believe Chuck made this, and Devon says, "I don't know." Ellie asks him if the chicken isn't moist, and Devon's like, "Um." God, I love him. Note to show: Use Awesome more. Hannah proposes a toast, which is all about how she's in the right job with the right guy and at a great meal. She thanks them all, and then laughs awkwardly. It's adorable, and everyone seems to agree.
We cut from Chuck smiling at her sweetly to Sarah, watching it all at Castle, looking devastated. Shaw comes in behind her and we get a weird close-up of him looking ... I don't know, emotional? He offers her some of the chicken he snuck out, but she says she's not hungry and asks if he has this covered. He says he does, and she leaves him standing there looking pretty. Meanwhile, Rafe's in a car with the agents, using Chuck's Buy More pen to unlock his handcuffs. Commercials.
Buy More the next day. Chuck's staring at Rafe's phone when Hannah comes up and takes it from him and asks if it's new. He says it is, and it's a work thing. She then tells him she knows this is quick, but her family's coming to town and she'd love them to meet him tonight for dinner. He agrees to, then Big Mike comes over and drags him away to help with their cooking. After they heard how much Hannah loved Chuck's food, they want his expert advice. They force-feed him, and his phone (still with Hannah) rings. She answers it "Burbank Buy More." They disagree with Chuck's assessment of food, and Chuck sees Hannah's hanging up the phone. He asks what that was, and she says they were asking for someone named Rafe. She told him it was a Buy More phone, but the guy wouldn't listen and said he'd be here in a couple minutes. Uh-oh.
She goes to help a customer, conveniently, so Chuck removes his tie, puts a bottle of something on his hair and then grabs a black jacket. Out back, he starts to use his watch to call Castle or something, but Pauly and Edgar come up and ask what he's doing with that watch. It's very ominous, as they rip it off and smash it. But they just don't think it's nice enough for him, and they give him a fancy gold watch. Edgar asks what he's doing at Buy More anyway, and Chuck says a man's gotta have hobbies. He was here browsing music. Edgar and Pauly praise and thank Chuck for what he pulled off today. So they returned the favor by tracking down the name of the guy he's supposed to kill. "Rafe" says this is very good news and they all laugh until "Rafe" stops them with "Enough."
