| Chuck Vs the Muuurder |
I have never seen so much blood on broadcast television. It's only tolerable because it looks really fake but I don't think it was necessary to show a murder like this on a show like Chuck.

| The Team |
The show starts with Beckman putting Chuck in charge of finding someone just like him to be the new Intersect. Everybody on the team, including director Bentley reports to him. The CIA sent him a list of three candidate who are the closest match to him. Lewis, Brody, Josie and Damian are competing to be the next Chuck. But of course everything goes wrong.

| The Brodster aka Brody |
 |
| Damian |
 | |
| Josie |

| Lewis |
The four candidates go through physical testing, psychological evaluations, cultural knowledge. In the end and without any surprise Chuck chooses the Brodster aka Brody. But right after Chuck sends the good news to Brody on his phone he is muuurdered right inside of castle by a mysterious murderer whose face we do not see.
A gruesome murder indeed but this it need to be so graphic and loud. You could literally hear the knife entering Brody's chest, awful. And Chuck slipping and falling on the blood, gross. And the dead body awful. The actor who pas Lewis delivers an awful performance for lack of a better word, he was just bad. I was reading earlier about how Chuck's production suffered budget cuts because they needed to keep the show's budget down in order to for NBC to renew it for a fourth season and these cuts can be seen with the quality of the visual effects.
Meanwhile Ellie is still not getting any sleep as she works on her dad's computer. We also get to see that what she is doing is being monitored by the director Bentley.
Meanwhile Chuck and Sarah interrogate everybody at castle after a bomb goes off and cuts the power they are trying to find out who is Brody's murderer. Funny how this episode reminds me of USA's Psych, "muuurder" that's exactly how Shawn Spencer says it. Of course they all deny it and then Chuck and Sarah find a bomb attached to the chair were the interrogated agents were sitting.
On another note, Jeff and Lester stole the LargeMart mascot which happens to be a cute pig named Kevin Bacon, in retaliation LargeMart employee kidnap big Mike who was dressed as BM, the Buy More mascot. It turns out the LargeMart started a promotion right after the one Buy More started.
Four different bombs explode down there castle will be needed some major repairs.
The CIA has decided to no longer try to have a new intersect.
It turns out Damian was sent in to kill Chuck. By whom/? and why ? Because Vivian Volkoff hired him to bomb Castle.
At the end of the episode we see the transformer computer aka Stephen Bartowski's computer scanning Ellie's face while she's sleeping after scanning the room to see if she was alone and then proceeding to unlock agent X-file.
I was afraid people would start dying like flies. But actually they only killed two people I was hoping to see more of the candidates it really looked promising at first but overall it was not a great episode. A slow day in Burbank.
