Chuck vs. The Unexpected Surprise Part 23

The episode begins with a recap of what previous happened as Abe slowly stalks a severely injured and crawling Marcus who is trying to make his way towards the -130 Hercules off in the distance. At this point he is no longer his cover persona Abraham Bartowski as he has now the former stone cold Section 8 member Steven Carmichael who has exacting payback for not only his fallen partner, but also for himself as he was nearly killed by his hands. Cut to a couple of shots where he steps on Marcus’ wound on his upper left thigh leading him to sound off a blood curdling scream leading the scene to move forward to where he asks who he is. Carmichael responds by telling he is his judge, jury, and executioner leading it to cut to him being dragged off camera by his injured leg. Cut to the Huey where Chuck and Travis have a conversation about his father where Chuck believes Abe is primarily on a suicide mission for retribution and redemption. Travis refutes that telling Chuck that they will get to him leading Travis to hold out for a fist tap, which chuck gives back. Move forward back at the crash site where Carmichael shoots Marcus in the arm leading him to take the dog tag that was around his neck, place it in front of Marcus’ face, and then drops it. As they are talking, cut to inside the overturned cargo truck cabin where Beckman regains consciousness leading her to hear the conversation between Marcus and Carmichael. Cut back to the outside where she hears the truth from Marcus’ own lips of what she really means to him, and about Ethan. By this time, Carmichael is so focused that he doesn’t notice Marcus reaching into his left front pocket to where he suddenly covers his mouth/nose and sprays Carmichael with prussic acid(hydrogen cyanide) leading him to lunge backwards to the ground writhing around in pain. Move forward to where Marcus is about to finish the job that he failed to do years ago when Beckman appears leading to a heartfelt exchanged between the two that results in her wanting to finish the job instead of Marcus. Marcus resists at first but after being some convincing by way of her kissing him he hands her the gun. Cut to Marcus gloating in his apparent victory over his fallen adversary and in mid sentence he goes suddenly flush leading to the appearance of the N.P.E in Beckman’s hand. After revealing to him what she heard, she kisses him one last time leading him to whisper in his ear that she has been there for him in taking care of his messes and this she’s taking care of her mess…him. With those words she shoots the man she loves in the head and he falls to the ground next to Carmichael leading him to look at his fallen adversary who was betrayed by the one person he thought would never betray him. Cut to Chuck reaching his father and then helping him along with Travis to the Huey, but before they ever reach it Beckman intervenes informing Sarah she now knows about her and Chuck. This leads Sarah’s father to intervene and as he does Graham arrives wanting to know what the hell is going on. Beckman gives her a cover story of a top secret mission leading him to order Chuck’s father be taken into Custody. Cut to a standoff ensuing as Casey and Sarah point their weapons at Graham as the Huey carrying Travis, Chuck, Cassidy, and a poisoned Abe fly off to their intended destination…Breckinridge Medical Center.

Cut to the façade of the Huey and then inside to a shot of Travis to where it immediately turns to Chuck cradling his father on the floor of the Huey as Cassidy is sitting behind them with a look of utter dread as she sees a man she hardly knows sweating, convulsing, and trembling after being sprayed with hydrogen cyanide by Marcus. After a brief moment, Cassidy speaks up as she looks over Chuck’s shoulder.
Cassidy: How is he doing?
Cut to Chuck shaking his head as he at his dad and then turns to look over his shoulder at Cassidy.
Chuck: anguish in his voice I…I…don’t know…turns to yell at Travis…Trav can you make this thing go any faster!

Chuck: Just hurry! Looks back down Don’t you quit on us you hear me dad…don’t…you… quit!
Cut to a close up shot of Abe cradle in Chuck’s arms as sweat pours down his face as sounds of breathing are heard through his gritted teeth as he’s shivering/convulsing leading Cassidy to rub Chuck’s right shoulder giving a look of assurance of hope. The scene switches from the Huey back to the abandoned airport where a now weaponless Casey and Sarah are in Graham’s custody after they stopped his men from getting to Abe. Cut to shots of Tobias talking on a cell phone and Wexler with his arm around Emily standing near the transport cargo truck as they look over at several agents somewhat blocking their view in front of the black S.U.V.s as they partially see, as well as, hear Graham, with Beckman standing to off to the side of him, the two agents receiving a tongue lashing. Cut to a full length shot of Casey and Sarah standing there hands at their side looking straight forward leading Graham to walk in from the left into camera view with a look of anger on his face.
Graham: Do you two realize what you just did? Looks at Casey You aimed your weapon at a superior officer…for what…points in the direction of where the Huey flew off…to help save Bartowski’s father?
Casey: speaks up He risked his life for the greater good sir.
Graham: There are agents out there as we speak doing that exact same thing as we speak…what makes Carmichael so special…what makes him different from all the rest?
Casey: They don’t have his heart.
Graham glares at Casey and then sets his sights on Sarah.
Graham: Looks at Sarah. Agent Walker…I am truly disappointed in you most of all since I considered you my best agent. And now I come to find out…glances back at Beckman…you’ve compromised yourself with the asset. What do you have to say for yourself?
Sarah: My job was to protect Chuck…I did that to the best of my ability. Somewhere along the line he ended up not only protecting me, he also ended up saving me in so many ways.
Beckman: speaks up Agent Walker…I want a clear answer from you…are YOU in love with the asset.
Sarah: No…I’m not General. cut to serious look on Beckman’s face. I’m in love with Chuck.
Cut to Graham with one hand on his hip and the other rubbing his forehead as he shakes his head in disbelief.
Graham: looks at Casey Tell me Major Casey…did you or did you not conspire to help keep the relationship between Agent Walker and Mr. Bartowski a secret from General Beckman and I so much so that you even suggested the option of moving in together knowing full well the gravity of the situation with Fulcrum coming so close to attaining the intersect?
Cut to Sarah giving a side glance towards Casey who pauses for a second and then speaks up.
Casey: Yes sir.
Cut to a shot of Graham turning his back in disgust walking a few feet in between the black S.U.V.s and after a brief moment turns back around walking towards the two agents.
Graham: I’ve heard enough…nod at his men…take them away.
Upon hearing that Sarah comes to the realization that it’s all over and she’s going to be reassigned far away from the man she loves.

The scene begins at around 6 a.m. with the Huey landing on top of Breckinridge Medical Center where Chuck, Travis, and Cassidy are met by medical personal with a gurney ready. As Chuck and Cassidy carefully help Abe on the gurney the doctor turns to Chuck and speaks up.
Doctor: Mr. Bartowski…I’m Doctor Bennett…Agent Casey informed me of the situation.
Cut to Chuck looking frantic all-the-while talking fast as he looks back and forth from his dad to the doctor as they are wheeling Abe inside.
Chuck: The antidote… the antidote is Sodium Thiosulfate…do..do you..breathing hard…have a print shop anywhere in the hospital.
At this point, all Cassidy and Travis can do is watch the C.I.A doctor calm Chuck down leading him to speak up.
Bennett: I assure you we’ll do everything in our power to save him…puts his hand on chuck’s left shoulder…I promise you.
As he says that, the camera cuts to an ariel shot on the roof where the doctor leads Chuck inside followed closely behind by Cassidy and Travis. The scene switches from Breckinridge Medical Center to the abandoned airport leading it to the shot of the transport cargo truck where Wexler goes to intervene leading him to look at his wife as he both of her arm, gives her a reassuring nod, and then runs towards the blockade of government agents standing in his way. As he says that Wexler runs up leading the men to turn inevitably catching him as he tries to get in between them. Casey and Sarah turn to see Wexler struggle to get free leading Sarah to speak up.
Sarah: Dad...shakes head…it’s my mess…not yours.
Graham looks at Sarah and then at Wexler leading him to speak up as he motions his men to let him through.
Graham: Excuse me Mr….
Wexler: Wexler…Jeremiah Wexler.
Graham reacts to the name leading him to look back at Sarah who is being handcuffed and then looks back at Wexler.
Graham: Agent Sarah Walker is your daughter?
Wexler: Yes…looks at Sarah giving her a smile…she is…intently looks back at Graham…and I demand that you free not only her, but Casey as well.
As he says that, Beckman walks up.
Beckman: Don’t get involved in this Jeremiah…your daughter and Agent Casey have disobeyed orders, aimed a weapon specifically at a superior officer with intent to stop a civilian from being arrested, and not to mention lying for the sake of keeping a relationship secret.
As she says that, Wexler leans in close to Beckman in an agitated low tone.
Wexler: We need to talk…glares at Beckman…now!
Cut to Beckman looking back at Graham leading her to hold up finger and then walks over several feet away from anyone hearing their conversation following Wexler. After a brief moment Wexler turns around leading him to speak up as Beckman reaches him.
Wexler: You know full well that what my daughter’s relationship with Chuck is similar to that of you and Marcus.
Beckman: No it’s not…and for you to suggest that…
Wexler: leans in Shut up! Cut to Beckman with a surprised look on her face. I’m not suggesting…I’m telling you the facts and the facts show a woman in an organization that fell in love with her co-worker. They couldn’t tell anyone about their relationship fearing what might happen…sound familiar because it does to me. Wexler points to his wife behind him. My wife shared with me what my daughter and Chuck have been through in order to be together…the obstacles they faced…the pain both of them have been through. I don’t like it when one of my daughters is in pain, especially when she has found a man who has made her truly happy. Wexler points his finger at her face. There’s one thing I don’t tolerate and that is hypocritical people and you…you Edna…are one of them.
Beckman: Fine…I’m a hypocrite…but that still doesn’t negate the fact she pulled a gun on her superior.
Wexler: She did it…Wexler points at the sky...in order to help save Chuck’s father…a good man! I would have done the exact same thing if the roles were reversed if my daughters or my wife were poisoned.
Beckman: Sorry Jeremiah…she made the wrong choice and she, along with Agent Casey, will suffer the consequences.
Beckman turns to walk away with close up shot of her face when Wexler speaks up behind her.
Wexler: Then I have no choice in doing what I have to do and damn the consequences.
Beckman freezes leading her to register what Jeremiah stated as she was walking away from her. The scene ends with her slowly turning around to sees a very serious look on Wexler’s face telling that he means business.

Beckman: Is that a threat Jeremiah?
Wexler: Oh…it’s not a threat…it’s a guarantee.
Beckman: What are you possibly going to do that will ensure your daughter and Casey’s freedom?
Wexler: Simple…you tend forget that I am a business man and my business is creating weapons…for the military. Cut to Beckman’s eye’s widening. I knew that would get your attention…you see the weapons my company creates aren’t just used by the military as they are also used by government departments such as the F.B.I, Interpol, MI6, ATF, Secret Service, C.I.A and NSA. My company will rescind all contracts leaving the military at a disadvantage and you wouldn’t want that to happen now would you General Beckman?
Beckman: What you are doing is considered blackmail.
Wexler: You better believe it and I would fair to guess if The Committe were to get wind of your involvement with Marcus…points to Tobias on the phone…they would be none too pleased you.
Beckman: You sneaky, underhanded son of a bitch.
Wexler: smirks Devious aren’t I. Points at Beckman. It’s your move…what’s it going to be?
Cut to Beckman seriously thinking it over leading her to walk towards Graham who has a handcuffed Sarah and Casey sitting in the parked black S.U.V. When Beckman reaches him he speaks up.
Beckman: Release them.
Graham: Negative…I can’t allow what they have done to be left unpunished.
As he says that, Tobias walks up leading him to speak up.
Tobias: I think you should listen to her and release both of them at once.
Wexler looks at Tobias who gives him a nod. Cut to Graham giving a laugh of disbelief as he again places one hand on his hip, massages forehead, and then wipes his face.
Graham: And may I ask who are you?
Tobias: Don’t concern yourself with who I am…concern yourself with the people I work for.

Tobias: That is none of your concern also.
Graham: angered tone I am not amused…I want…Graham yells…demand to know what is going on damnit!
Tobias: You will…once you answer your phone.
Graham: What are you talking about…my phone isn’t… As he says that Graham’s phone rings leading him to answer it. Graham.
Graham looks at Tobias and then turns around to talk with the unknown person on the other end. Cut to Beckman, Casey, Sarah, Wexler, and Emily curiously wondering who Graham is talking to. After several minutes, Graham ends the phone call and slowly returns to the group.
Beckman: Who was it?

Graham: Under protection?
Beckman: By who?
Graham: He wouldn’t say…but according to him Agent Sarah Walker, Agent John Casey, and Charles Bartowski have been given immunity along with anyone who is closely associated with them in case there is possible retaliation.
Upon hearing that, Sarah looks at her father.
Sarah: confused look What does that mean?

Wexler looks at Tobias who responds with a nod leading him to nod back. Cut to a moment or two later where Wexler speaks up again as he looks at his daughter. Let’s go see how Abe’s doing…what do you say?
Sarah nods leading her mother, father, Tobias, and Casey to commandeer one of the black S.U.V’s to drive to the Breckinridge Medical Center. The scene ends with a Sarah sitting in the passenger seat with a big smile on her face concerning Chuck, but then suddenly turns sullen at the thought of Abe comes to her mind leading it to cut to the facade of the S.U.V driving off as the dust kicked up from tires envelopes Graham, Beckman, and his men.

Sarah: chimes in What about the poison?
Bennett pauses as he takes a deep breathe and then responds.
Bennett: looks at Chuck There are two kinds of exposure…acute and chronic. With chronic exposure the cyanide levels are primarily low to where it can impact the blood chemistry, which is treatable.

Everybody: To Abraham Bartowski!
Cut to a close up shot of all the glasses/bottles in the air. The scene ends with the camera moving to the side a bit as it focuses on a picture hanging on the wall of Chuck and Ellie with Abe in the middle smiling from ear to ear.

The End.
