Chuck, Sarah, Morgan Ellie and Captain Awesome are all playing some weird board game and we get the impression that they are being watched. Morgan and Sarah compete about who knows Chuck best and Chuck notices that Sarah doesn’t like olives. More weird surveillance as Chuck walks Sarah to her car and Morgan, tired of being a fifth wheel decides to try being just a third wheel as Chuck walks Sarah out.
Back home Sarah is getting ready to shower when the world’s hottest ninja attacks out of nowhere and there’s a huge cat fight. Turns out the ninja isn’t really a ninja but an old government DEA co-worker Karina (Mini Anden, Fashion House). She’s in town to track down a diamond and she needs Sarah’s help.
General Grandma and The Candyman tell Sarah, Casey and Chuck to help Karina but not to let her get away with the diamond since the man (Iqbal Theba, who’s been in a TON of stuff. He’s one of those “That Guy” guys. I remember him from the George Carlin show) who owns it is turning it over to some terrorists to fund their operation.
Candyman tells them to take Chuck to his place to scope out the situation and gather recon on the diamonds location and security. There’s some silly subplot action about getting Morgan a date with Karina (and who wouldn’t want a date with her? She’s like the most gorgeous DEA agent in the history of fake television DEA agents.)
Karina thinks Chuck is a consultant to the CIA and she realizes that he could be an asset in her attempts to steal the diamond for herself. She comes on to Chuck and lets slip that Sarah was dating Bryce Larkin (the spy who started this whole mess and who Chuck hated for stealing his girlfriend and getting him kicked out of college.) Chuck (SOMEHOW!?) manages to avoid being seduces by Karina and slips out. The next day Chuck tells Sarah he knows she was dating Bryce and she tries to lie but Chuck sees right through her. He realizes that he doesn’t know Sarah at all and he’s sad, but they head to the guy’s house to spy on the diamond. They manage to find the diamond but instead of scoping it out Karina grabs it and makes a break for it.
Back at her hotel Casey is closing in on her with a tracking device he planted on her. Apparently he had some run-ins with her in the past as well, but Karina manages to slip the diamond into Morgan’s bag and subdues Casey by handcuffing him to her bed. Morgan shows up at Chuck’s and is depressed because Karina told him they couldn’t date anymore. Chuck finds the diamond in his bag and Karina shows up to get it back but Sarah calls and she and Casey are being held hostage by the owner of the diamond who is now as angry as he is hairy (hence the wookie). Chuck and Karina must save the day. There’s a big fight and Chuck manages to slip away and drop the diamond in a FedEx to General Grandma and the Candyman. The terrorists aren’t able to afford their surface to air missiles and everyone is happy, except Chuck who doesn’t like that he doesn’t know anything about Sarah. He knows Sarah isn’t even her real name and wants her to tell him her name, or at least her middle name, but she won’t. Chuck steps out of the room and Sarah whispers that her middle name is Lisa.
This was my favorite episode of the series so far and not just because of the BEAUTIFUL Mini Anden. 4 out of 5 stars.
