Yes, it was a little confusing when the events that we saw happen two weeks ago appear to have been only a day or so to the folk who live in Burbank, but sometimes it is very good to allow time to pass for the viewers, and I think this was one of those cases.
This episode was so bad ass. I loved how much Casey (Adam Baldwin) we got, though it still wasn't really enough. How can you not love a man who is happy you pulled out his tooth because it maintained your cover! And who is one of the 5 snipers in the world who can make that shot?
And that Chuck actually pulled that tooth, and then beat up Sarah and Shaw because he had to! LOVE IT.
What I am not loving is Sarah, though. I'm not sure how I feel about her admitting to Shaw that her real name is Sam, and I'm not sure how I feel about her knowingly falling into her old patterns. And I'm really not sure how I feel about her being with Shaw. I liked it before, but now I'm not so sure. I think that Strahovski must be playing Sarah/Sam's confusion about her identity very well because it's hard to know how I should be feeling about the choices she is making.
As for Chuck ending things with Hannah, he obviously made the right call. He was never going to stop lying to her, and much as he liked her, we all know that his feelings for Sarah will never go away. Or at least, they won't go away because he's found someone else. Jeff (Scott Krinsky) of all characters had it right when he said that Chuck's eyes light up when Sarah is around.
And I really didn't feel for her. She was mad, understandably, that this seemingly nice guy slept with her and then dumped her, but logically, she should never have thought so well of Chuck.
After all, he abandoned her at the museum so that he could talk to Sarah, but she forgot all that because he saved her life. And then she slept with him on the first date.
I'm not saying you can't expect a guy to be better than that, but if it's going to hurt you so much, don't do it regardless of how certain you are that it isn't going to happen. Frankly, I thought that relationship was developing way too fast, and I'm glad it ended.
And so, where does that leave us? Well, with the thoughts that I have given to Chuck at http://www.couchcampus.com/television/tv-talk/chuck-season-3-recap/. Chuck is changing. He is becoming more and more of a spy, while Sarah seems to be the one wanting to run from the life. So where does that leave our favourite will they/won't they couple?
And on that note, the best line of the show was definitely the mobster telling Chuck that he hates those will they/won't they things.
