Chuck vs The Washington Apple Part 1

Hi my name is Chuck and here are a few things you might need to know!

The team accepting the mission to Mexico. Carina showing up and pulling her tricks on everyone. Chuck pulling the drowning prank on Sarah. Bailey and Sarah fighting about trusting each other. Carina disobeys Bailey and Casey’s order and is captured and beaten. Sarah and Mr. Wilkinson rescue Carina while Bailey and Casey take down Velasquez and his associates. Bailey disappears and leaves a note for Sarah back at the Hotel. Chuck asks Sarah where Bailey is, Sarah replies “She’s gone!”

We begin with a shot of LAX and the team grabbing their suitcases and walking out to the car.

Sarah: We need to hurry up and get back, maybe she is still there.
Casey: I doubt it!
Chuck: Damit Casey, cant you just once think positive about something?
Casey: I do that all the time, that’s why I haven’t killed you yet!
Sarah: Stop it you two, I cant deal with this right now!
Casey: Wow Walker, are we being extra sensitive with our lady feelings today?!?!
Sarah gives a cold stare to Casey then tells him to shut up and get in the car!


As they return to the apartment complex, Sarah runs to the apartment only to find that Bailey had already been there, packed her things and left. She walked over and picked up the picture of the two of them from back in college and thought to herself, why couldn’t their relationship be like it was back then? Why did it all of a sudden have to get so complicated? She put the picture down as she noticed Chuck walking in and is sadden even more at the look of abandonment on his face.

Sarah: Chuck…I will fix this! I will get her back!
Chuck: It’s to late Sarah, she is gone and god knows where they sent her on assignment? Plus with her gone and Beckman and Graham taking over again I see a very little chance of them approving of our relationship and things…..(he has a discouraging sound in his voice) things are just becoming way to complicated!

Sarah is slightly confused and not liking his tone.
“What are you saying Chuck?”

Chuck: I think we need to take a step back and re-evaluate the situations that are about to take place before we can go any further with us.

Sarah is flabbergasted by Chuck’s statement but hides it behind her protective barrier.
“Ok Chuck if you think that is the best thing for us to do, consider it done.”

Chuck hangs his head and bobs it up and down in agreement and walks out of the apartment and over to his. As he leaves Sarah’s eyes become red, she was about to call out his name to stop him but with the best timing her phone begins to ring.

Sarah: Walker here.
Casey: I need you to get over here, the General and Director would like to have a word.
Sarah: I am on my way.

She hangs up her phone and puts the picture back down on the table and takes another look around the apartment. This place that had made her feel safe and for the first time in years like she was finally putting down roots now had a empty, melancholy feeling to it. She wished Bailey was here for her to talk to, the thought of it all made her stomach turn and she was all of a sudden overcome with a sick feeling and rushes to the bathroom.

Moments later she walks across the courtyard to Casey’s apartment and sits down on the couch.

Beckman: Agent Walker, are you well? You look like you have been throwing up!
Sarah: I am fine General, some of the food I at is not settling well with my stomach.
Graham: You didn’t drink the water down there in Mexico did you? You know there is a reason for that saying!
Sarah: No Sir, it was just the food, I will be fine.

Casey looks at Sarah up and down and grunts, which causes Sarah to look up at his smirking face.

Beckman: Well now that we have been informed by Agent Fisher that upon her return here to DC, she will be giving us total control of the Operation back.
Graham: That’s right, according to her reports, the intersect is already in the best capable hands for its protection and does not need higher supervision with you two on the job! You 2 are to be commended for a job well done, and I know that I speak for the General as well when I say we feel more comfortable having complete control of this matter.
Beckman: That is correct, but after we had this operation taken away from us before, we are going to make sure that does not happen again. We are going to double up on surveillance and missions, and we want to see the lack of professionalism that has been shown here recently to disappear and get back to business, is that understood?
Casey/Sarah: Yes, General
Casey: General, when is Agent Fisher expected back in DC for this turnover?
Beckman: At the end of the week, she is doing some recon for her next mission then will return here to give us a turnover.
Sarah: Do we have any idea as to her current location?
Graham: No, she fell of the map as soon as she returned to the states.
Beckman: Agent Casey, Agent Walker. I wouldn’t worry too much about Agent Fisher, she is the best her agency has to offer and her talents are better used in the field not there with the intersect. I suggest that you two gear up for some major changes that are about to happen!

Screen goes black.

Sarah: That maybe true but I need her here, and so does Chuck and so do you! Casey don’t you see what she is doing? She is hoping that we have realized that we have been fools and tell her we want her back and we trust her that is why she is taking her time with this turnover! I am going to go get her, I want my friend back!
Casey: Yeah, especially now that you have a bun in the oven!
Sarah: WHAT?? I do not. It’s just food poisoning.
Casey: Whatever you say Agent Walker, but I think you might want to go see if you have a Chucky Jr. growing inside you, and for everyone’s sake I hope it is just food poisoning because one of them is bad enough, I don’t want a mini Bartowski to chase around as well!

Sarah gets up from the couch.

Sarah: I am not pregnant, and we have other things to worry about! I don’t really want to go back under the control of Beckman and Graham. Bailey is the best thing for this team!
Casey: You could have come to this conclusion when we were in Mexico? It would have saved us from going threw all this trouble.
Sarah: Casey, are you going to stop busting my chops or are you going to help me find Bailey?
Casey: Oh, I am going to help you find her, but I will never stop busting your chops Mrs. Bartowski!! (He smiles at her as she gets frustrated and walks back over to her apartment.)

Over at Casa Bartowski, Chuck is in his room lying on his bed rubbing his temples trying to get rid of the headache he has.
Ellie knocks on the door and opens it, she walks over and sits on the side of the bed and looks down at her brother.

Ellie: What’s wrong little brother? Did you have a good time in Mexico?
Chuck: We were having a good time before…
Ellie: Before what?
Chuck: Before Bailey got called back to DC and just left us.
Ellie: Yeah, I saw her this morning, she said she had a job offer that she couldn’t turn down and she was sorry that she had to leave so quickly.
Chuck: I loved having her back after not seeing her for so long and then just like that she is gone.
Ellie: Chuck, she has a job to do and its not like she wont be back to visit, some things just have a higher priority than others.
Chuck: I know, I just feel…I feel like I did when mom left us, like what could I have done to make her stay?
Ellie: Oh Chuck no, don’t do this to yourself. There was nothing you could have done to make mom stay, and Bailey is different, she would not just up and leave without ever seeing us again.
Chuck: I hope your right sis, I don’t think I could take another person I love walking out on me when I need them!

Ellie gives him a smile and smacks his leg. “ I will see you later, I have to get to work.”
Chuck: Ok, have a good day at work.

Ellie leaves and Chuck lets out a sigh as he stares at the ceiling with a 100 different thoughts going around in his head.

Back at Sarah and Bailey’s apartment, Sarah is looking around for any clues Bailey might have left behind to give her an idea about where she is. After a vigorous search through the whole apartment she comes up empty, she sits down on the couch to relax, maybe if she stops looking for it, it will appear.

As she sits there she starts to think about what Chuck said earlier about figuring things out before they can continue with their relationship, it struck a cord with her due to the fact that he is the one now putting the job before her and its kinda a slap in the face. She then begins to think about the possibility of not being able to see Chuck romantically again due to Graham and Beckman taking over, if they found out she would be re-assigned without a second thought. She could not let this happen, she could not waist any more time, she needed to find Bailey and get her back there.

Chuck might be able to flash on something she thought! She calls his phone and leaves a voice message to meet her at her apartment in an hour if he wants to get his cousin back. After she hangs up she heads to the store, she knew Casey was just trying to get on her nerves about the possibility of being pregnant, but that was another thing she did not need clouding her mind, so she was going to be sure.

An hour later Chuck walks threw the apartment door and calls out for Sarah with no reply. He walks upstairs and into her room and calls her name again, as he says her name he walks by the bathroom and sees her standing there holding a thin plastic strip, with a look on her face that is confused and horrified.

Chuck: Sarah, are you ok, what’s wrong?

Sarah looks up at him and is trying to find the words to say in her confused state.

Sarah: It says positive!
Chuck is now the confused one: What says positive?
Sarah: Chuck…I’m pregnant!
