Chuck: Chuck vs. The Fatlady
I am going to start with the end. I can’t say that I am truly surprised that Jill popped up as a FULCRUM agent – if for no other reason then I am a Chuck and Sarah shipper through and through so this would be a fitting way for them to get back together! And really, just imagine what Chuck is going to think when he finds out that Jill is a rogue agent…she already betrayed him once! Now methinks that Jill’s involvement with Bryce was no coincidence. I am wondering if she was already recruited back at college like Bryce was and Chuck was going to be – and at what point did she go bad…and why didn’t Bryce say anything to Chuck. Of course I could be way off base on my thoughts here. In any event, another solid episode from Chuck…there hasn’t been a bad one yet this season! Thoughts, observations and highlights follow:
“You’re pretty nonchalant about your supercomputer boyfriend trying to browse someone else’s network” Casey to Sarah on her calm attitude to Chuck and Jill dating.
“We tried the back seat but you put a camera in the car too!”
“I’ve heard the loading dock is like a Five for Fighting concert. So fierce!” – according to Emmett who thinks Chuck has a drug problem.
Chuck telling Jill that life as a spy isn’t glamorous or sexy only to open the door on one very glamorous and sexy Sarah.
Chuck inadvertently dialing Jill on his cell as he shimmied though the hotel’s duct work and talking to Sarah about how long it would take a prostitute and high rolling businessman to have sex!
“It’s the FBI! They’re dumb, not deaf!” Casey to Chuck as Chuck falls loudly through the vent onto the floor
Chuck showing off what he knows by opening the puzzle box, which is apparently very popular for all the Renaissance spies out there!
Casey telling Chuck that it was a common spy problem for a man’s girlfriend to be caught in the shower with another women.
Emmett’s quest to get Buy More (Buymoria!) to turn on Chuck
Jeff going into prison mode when Emmett questions him; “Grab a sheave and make your move!”
That Morgan’s beard holds so many of Chuck’s secrets
Vogon poetry!!! (which is "the third worst poetry in the Universe")
Casey hitting the High C note!!
Casey telling the group that he wasn’t hatched!
Nerdcode!
Casey wondering about Jill’s ass..ets!
Chuck winking to Casey to let him know that he wasn’t going to give the Fulcrum agent the real information.
Emmett drinking the wine cooler at the poker game but having one too many fuzzy navels
Good thing the Morgan is so cheap and unethical not to pay for his video game and instead purchased a copier chip!
Sarah telling Jill the she protects all aspects of Chuck's life, so Jill had better not hurt Chuck.
Morgan turning the tables on Emmett – you gotta love Morgan’s loyalty to Chuck.

My gods, this was hysterical! Every week, I think it can't get any funnier, then it does. Vogon poetry!! Everybody at my place got the joke - what a roar!
Also , you missed the middle of the "Casey & the high C" joke - "choir boy". The sick part is, I have no problem envisioning young Casey as a choir boy.
Good questions about when Jill was recruited. I don't know if we'll ever get any answers, but your hypothesis seems sound to me.

I enjoyed this episode, too, although, like you, I suspected all along that Jill was bad news. Now I'm really hoping that Sarah and Casey can take her down...and then mend poor Chuck's broken heart, of course. Thanks for reminding me of so many funny parts; I really love watching this show, it is so enjoyable.

Great episode. I didn't like Jill and wasn't surprised either that she turned out to be a FULCRUM agent. The only suspense, when they were scrolling through all of them, was when her picture would pop up. I just hope it's Sarah who gets to bring her down.
How clever of Morgan to get Emmett drunk so he could blackmail him. Just when we thought he had weaseled out on Chuck, he comes through.
The only complaint I have about the episode was, once again, no Anna.
