How to Be Undercover Cool Like Chuck Bartowski


Wanna be cool like Chuck Bartowski? I saw another Bukisa user write about getting a job at the CIA. You can read that article here. It isn't a joke, it a genuine and quality article about getting work at the CIA. Chuck Bartowski, beloved Nerd Herd supervisor, seems less and less a nerd the more you watch. And he is adorable beyond nerd status. While you will find some cute nerds, he just seems too good looking to be a nerd.

His undercover name of choice is Charles Carmichael. It is suave and smooth and everything Chuck thinks he needs to be. If you want to be cool like Chuck, pick a name to make you feel cool. Any old alias you like will do.

Next up in gaining Chuck's cool? Gain the trust and respect of others. Whenever something goes wrong at the Buy More, Chuck is everyone's first call without a second thought. Chuck's real coolness comes from the fact that he is trusted to solve problems, computer or customer, where ever they might arise.

Chuck Bartowski's coolest trait has to be that he is loyal and courageous to no end. To really be cool in the style of Chuck, you need to always stand up for what you believe in and never let someone else tell you what is right. Chuck has his own moral compass and his own rule book when it comes to what is right. He doesn't let anyone stand in the way of helping his loved ones. Chuck's family and friends know he's cool because he is always there for him.

Chuck is a real hero to everyone around him. If you want that kind of cool, stand up for what you believe in. Never back down. Find what makes you feel cool. Get some respect. That's Nerd Herd style.

Episode Recap



Episode 214 | Season 2 | 02/23/2009


Flashback to Tarzana 1992: a 12-year-old Morgan Grimes is knocked to the ground by an irate classmate, Suzy, who's accused him of spying on her in gym class. A cowering Morgan is rescued by Chuck, who tells Morgan to grow up. Flash-forward to the present day: in the Buy More's home theatre room, Morgan presents his latest girl problem to Chuck and Lester and Jeff. Not only has Anna broken up with him, he fears she may now be seeing someone else. He pleads with his buddies to help him spy on her to find out. After outfitting Jeff's van with some amateur spy gear, the gang puts a tail on Anna.



Ellie is overwhelmed by all the arrangements for her upcoming wedding to Captain Awesome. She assigns him responsibility for handling the flowers, music, and the cake; she'll handle the rest. Devon in turn asks for help from his soon-to-be brother-in-law, Chuck: he wants him to find the band for the wedding. Back at Buy More, Jeff and Lester overhear Chuck making arrangements for music and explain that they have their own band, Jeffster (Jeff + Lester) and would love to play the wedding. Chuck says thanks but no thanks.



The guys follow Anna to a restaurant where she's met by a handsome suitor -- whom Chuck immediately flashes on! After reporting his flash to Casey and Sarah, they learn that Anna's new boyfriend is Jason Wang, part of a local drug and gun running gang known as TRIAD. General Beckman wants Chuck to befriend Jason to see if he can uncover additional gang members. Chuck's distraught -- he knows that befriending Anna's new boyfriend will be seen as a major betrayal by his best friend Morgan.



Chuck sucks it up and embraces the mission. He dissuades Morgan from pestering Anna, then ingratiates himself with her, suggesting that she and her new boyfriend join Sarah and him on a double date. Anna is pleasantly surprised and invites Chuck and Sarah to stop by a party that Jason is throwing tonight at his exotic car dealership.



At the party that night, Morgan remains in stalker mode, watching the event through a pair of binoculars. His heart is doubly broken when he spots Anna -- but also his soon-to-be-former best friend Chuck. Unbeknown to Morgan, Chuck and Sarah have a secondary objective at the party -- to convince Anna that she and Morgan were a great couple.



When Ellie calls the Buy More in need of computer repair, Jeff explains that Chuck is out at the moment, but that he and Lester will be right over. He explains to Lester that this is the perfect opportunity to audition for the happy couple. The computer repaired, Jeff starts setting up his keyboard and Lester begins his vocal warm-ups. A confused Ellie wonders what's happening; Devon (Awesome) explains it's Chuck's idea. They decide to humor Jeffster, only to see Lester suffer an attack of stage fright and run away.



Mingling at the party, Chuck flashes on two more of Jason's associates. As he's explaining what he's seen to Sarah, Anna approaches them and wants to talk to Sarah. Sarah surreptitiously hands Chuck a listening device to plant near Jason and his associates. Chuck sneaks off to a back showroom where Wang is conspiring with his fellow TRIAD members. Chuck plants the listening device, but jostles a nearby power cord loose, creating a commotion that alerts the TRIAD thugs.



Anna opens up to Sarah, realizing that she and Morgan were a great couple. She's torn between him and Jason. As they're talking, the party security forces are alerted to an intruder in the back showroom. Fearing that Chuck is about to be caught, Sarah and Casey rush to his rescue.



Security discovers the intruder -- but it's not Chuck, it's Morgan, who's infiltrated the party in a ski mask. Chuck, terrified that his lifelong friend will be killed, pleads with Casey and Sarah to intervene. They explain that they can't just go in to rescue him with guns a blazing because it would compromise their covers. Chuck bolts to save him anyway. Just as Wang's evil associate, Smooth Lau, is about to break Morgan's neck, Chuck intervenes. He explains that Morgan is a stalker, not a spy. Chuck renounces him as a sicko and the TRIAD thugs let him go. Morgan is crushed at the betrayal, but unharmed, at least for the moment. Moments later, Smooth discovers the listening device inside the garage and decides that Morgan was a spy after all. She orders him killed.



Back at Buy More, Morgan will have nothing to do with Chuck, effectively declaring their friendship over. Chuck laments to Sarah that she doesn't understand the depth of his bonds to Morgan. He explains that Morgan is family to him and always will be. Having to remain undercover is killing him. Sarah has little sympathy, coolly telling Chuck that if they don't complete the mission and uncover the drugs and weapons that TRIAD is trying to distribute throughout Los Angeles, a lot of people will lose their best friends.



At Buy More, Morgan realizes that his woes are not a result of Chuck's betrayal, but his own actions. He wants to grow up and start taking responsibility for his behavior. As they're talking, two TRIAD thugs enter the store searching for their target, Morgan. Chuck is terrified, knowing Morgan's life is in danger, but Morgan, thinking it's just a beatdown from Anna's new boyfriends' pals, wants to take his punishment. Chuck resorts to spraying Morgan with knock-out drops, then hiding him in a home theatre packing box.



As he's carting the box-bound Morgan across the store floor, Anna distracts Chuck to watch her boyfriend Jason being interviewed on TV. Wang is holding a charity auction that night; Chuck flashes that TRIAD intended to kill the Chinese ambassador. He summons Casey and Sarah for help. They arrive, but not before the bad guys figure out that Morgan is hidden in the box and load him into the back of their car, making a getaway.



Chuck, Sarah, and Casey head for the auction party at Wang's showroom. Chuck sneaks into the back and witnesses the TRIAD goons packing a bomb into the "Spirit of Ecstasy" hood ornament on a Rolls Royce that will soon belong to the Chinese ambassador. He watches in horror as Smooth Lau's men transfer the still-unconscious Morgan into the trunk of the Rolls. "We'll kill two birds with one bomb," announces Lau.



The ambassador takes off before Casey and Sarah can swoop in. Chuck hops into his Nerd Herd car and chases after the Rolls, trying to save his friend. The ambassador's driver thinks it's an assassination attempt and a wild chase ensues. Casey hops on top of the Nerd Herder, trying to stop Chuck from harming himself. Casey finally gains entry and takes over control of the car, using a hidden remote control device to chase the ambassador's speeding time bomb of a Rolls Royce.



Smooth Lau discovers Sarah and the two fight an epic battle involving tire irons, broken glass, shards of CDs, airbags, and a seat belt used as a garrote. Walker prevails, then jumps into one of Wang's sports cars and takes off to help her fellow agents.



Casey and Chuck continue the chase, finally stopping the ambassador's car in an alley. As Casey explains to the ambassador's security detail that they're there to thwart a threat, Chuck sneaks around and extracts the bomb hidden in the Rolls's hood ornament. He puts it in the Nerd Herder and speeds off.



Sarah pulls up and she and Casey watch in terror as the Nerd Herder explodes in the distance. They're sure Chuck has died, but he emerges a few moments later, the remote car control in his hands. "That was pretty sweet, huh?" he says. He rescues the still-asleep Morgan from the back of the Rolls and returns him to the Buy More, where he's none the wiser.



Following an impassioned plea to Captain Awesome, Jeffster gets a second chance to audition for the newlyweds-to-be -- this time inside the Buy More. Lester reaches deep inside this time, belting out a soulful version of Toto's "Africa." As the music plays, Morgan confesses his affection for Anna (who takes him back) and Sarah confesses to Chuck that she's never had a friend like he has in Morgan. Chuck tells her that she does now. They hold hands and share a sweet, knowing smile.
