A few things Chuck thinks we need to know: Ellie and Awesome went to the Congo, then a Ring guy named Justin made Awesome seem sick so they'd go back home. Chuck and Sarah moved in together. Now: Chuck and Sarah are watching TV, and not liking it. Chuck says Monday nights are a bit of a wasteland. Ah, self-deprecation. The news says the president of Zamibia will be in town, then Chuck turns on Spies Like Us, which means Chevy Chase exists in the Chuck universe even though he also played Ted Roark in it. Ouch, my head hurts. Chuck teases her about how much she could learn from these spies, and she gets offended, but he tells her it was a joke. "Remember? Jokes?" Then he tells her he loves her and she doesn't respond. Instead, she just rubs his face, and he looks sad.
He turns back to the TV, then falls asleep. The credits are rolling when he wakes up and she tells him she loves him. He's so glad to finally hear her say that, but then things get weird. First we get a flash of "The terrible troll raises his sword," which was the code to Bryce's email in the pilot. Then Chuck sees General redhead outside the window clanging cymbals together. Then a picture of Beethoven flashes quickly by. Doorbell rings, and Sarah says she's so glad they found a place that delivers Zamibian food. She turns into the news anchor a little as she says it. Chuck goes to the door, and it's Shaw with Zamibian food. Chuck freaks out and pulls out guns to shoot him again, now and in flashback. Shaw falls into the fountain in the apartment courtyard, which is when Chuck wakes up. Sarah asks if he had another bad dream, and he says it was about Beethoven and Zamibia. She tells us that he has a nightmare every time he falls asleep, but he says this one's trying to tell him something.
They're at Casey's, talking to General Redhead, who's in her pajamas. Casey's in his bathrobe. When Chuck says that someone is going to try to kill the president of Namibia at the Beethoven concert tomorrow night, Casey's like, "Tomorrow night?" He likes his sleep, like a princess, so why'd Chuck have to wake him up and do this now? Chuck apologizes to both him and the General, who has a man behind her on her video, which appears to be in her kitchen. When Chuck finally says he knows this will happen because of a dream, and he explains it, Casey asks for permission to slap Chuck for having a bad dream. Sarah tries to stick up for Chuck, but General stops her and says Chuck's assignment is to see a CIA therapist about these dreams, which are getting in the way of his work and everyone's sleep.
