Chuck Versus The Truth

The next morning, the lady top-brass NSA/CIA general is filling Sarah and Casey in on the five Ws of Mr. Blue. He was a programmer for a top-secret program called Sanctuary, and he disappeared with all the details for the entire nuclear arsenal embedded on a chip. This does not make him a bad man, though, according to Lady Top Brass. Sarah says that Chuck is not wrong very often. Casey points out that Chuck is, however, annoying all the time. Heh. He said it. Lady Top Brass tells Sarah to take Chuck to the morgue and see what there is to be seen with Mr. Blue.

Back at Buy More, Morgan is back from lunch on time, because Big Mike has him working on this week's lame subplot. This time, it's a "top secret" project involving helping Harry Tang's wife pick out an anniversary present. Harry Tang's wife turns out to be the wife of Francis from Malcolm In The Middle. She's pretty funny for an Asian stereotype. She's buying a plasma TV for a man who works in an electronics store. She gives Morgan a hug that is captured on tape by two of the Nerd Herders.

Rachel Bilson is back, and she wants the verdict on her phone. When Chuck tells her it's fine, she is so excited that she doesn't seem to notice that Chuck went through all her contacts and found the number for her "Nana." Instead of thinking it is totally stalker-creepy, Rachel Bilson gives Chuck a sandwich. It's the turkey and Muenster on egg bread from her safe place. She's named it after him. He is honored. Sarah interrupts his mind-cheat on their fake relationship. Chuck gets flustered, and Sarah introduces herself to Lou as Chuck's girlfriend. Rachel Bilson tells him to refrigerate his sandwich because she doesn't want "the Chuck" to make him sick. There's got to be an upchuck joke in their somewhere, but I am too lazy to make it. And apparently, so were the writers. Sarah tells him to get a move on, because they are headed to the morgue.

Casey meets Sarah and Chuck at the morgue. Chuck is not dealing with the whole dead-body thing very well. As Sarah and Casey work over the body, back at the apartment, Ellie is getting worked over by Mr. Stripey. He's wearing a cop uniform and taking her statement about the incident. He asks her several times whether or not Mr. Blue transferred anything to her. Then he asks to take her photo for the record. Instead of drop-kicking his creepazoid ass to the curb, she sits up straight and smiles. In the morgue, Sarah has pulled a listening bug off of Mr. Blue's ear. It was hidden behind a flap of fake skin. Mr. Stripey then fixes Ellie's hair for the photo and plants the exact same bug on her without her even noticing. Those spies are sneaky! Casey has identified the poison that killed Mr. Blue as a toxic truth serum. They send a sample to the lab. The fake cop hands Ellie a pen to sign the fake affidavit. Turns out the pen is fake, too! When Ellie clicks it, it shoots some magic dust on her. She doesn't notice that, either.
