Chuck Versus The Wookie

Carina leads Sarah and Chuck into an unguarded area. Chuck: "So I guess if this was you and Bryce, you'd be sneaking into the bedroom, huh, Sarah?" I feel like Chuck's going through his own version of the stages of grief here, and he's up to "being bitchy." I kind of hope he stays stuck on this one for a while. Carina uses some electronic codebreaker to get into the room where the diamond is displayed, but it's only a few seconds after that when Alahi and two armed guards appear. Alahi asks if they like his diamond, and Sarah ditzes that yes, they do! Spy training or no, I'm thinking she won't be able to sell that line if he asks her about his Speedo. But Sarah sells the ditz persona with the aid of a flat Midwestern accent, and when Carina gets in on the act, Alahi is charmed and calls off his goons. Of course, there's no way two ditzes from the Midwest would have been so cavalier about having guns pointed at them, but I'm too glad not to be seeing the Speedo anymore to care.

After Alahi tells them that legend says whoever owns the diamond rules the world, in answer to Carina's question, he tells them that if anyone touches it, the vault will seal itself off and gas will fill the room, and then his security team will "eliminate the threat." He leads Sarah out to grossly hit on her; when they're gone, Chuck gets a vision from the diamond, which shows that it's protected by 20,000 volts of electricity. When Carina asks him for a recommendation, he suggests using compressed air to knock it off the pedestal. Carina, deciding to "improvise," grabs a nearby fire extinguisher and shoots the diamond off its resting position; it goes flying, and Chuck catches it, but not without knocking over a heavy bust, which crashes loudly to the ground. The walls, as promised, start to come down, but Carina kicks another pedestal under it to prevent it from closing all the way. Outside, Sarah takes down Alahi; Carina then runs into a slide under the door. Sarah snits that this was only supposed to be recon, and then they deal with the guards as Chuck escapes with the diamond. The three of them go running outside, with all the commotion not slowing down the bitchery between Sarah and Carina one bit. You can't let life and death distract you from a good fight. At one point, a guy is about to shoot Chuck, but Sarah grabs a dinner plate from someone and chucks it right into his head. Remind me not to play Ultimate against her. Or with her, for that matter. Sarah calls Casey via the two-way Dick Tracy-style radio in her watch; she gives him the short version and tells him to meet them on the beach. The smoking security guy comes running toward the house, but Casey trips him and then knocks him out. He sees a large ATV next to him and gets A Mischievous Look.
