Chuck: My life took a little detour senior year when our old friend Bryce Larkin discovered stolen tests under my bed and was kind enough to alert administration.
Sarah: Did you steal the tests?
Chuck: I thought it was kind of implied that I'm a decent person!
Sarah: Well, we all make mistakes.
Chuck: And I've made plenty; that just wasn't one of them. But, hey, then Bryce sent me a whole database of government secrets that are now locked in my brain, keeping me in a constant state of fear, danger, and anxiety, sooo...I guess we're even.
-
Sarah: The idea with a cover is to keep it as simple as possible without revealing true personal detail. Any thoughts on a name?
Chuck: Charles Carmichael? Simple, dignified--
Sarah: Easy to remember, and not far off from--
Chuck: Graduated with honors from Stanford, runs a hugely successful software company, semi-retired, and is considering entering America's Cup.
Sarah: You done this before?
Chuck: Let's just say Mr. Carmichael and I share a small kinship.
Sarah: How's that?
Chuck: When I first entered Stanford it's kinda where I envisioned myself being...by now. Except for the sailing part; I don't really know where that came from.
-
Casey: Congratulations, Chuck. You just got your first mission. Tomorrow night. Hope you're ready for the real world.
-
Harry: Where's Bartowski?
Morgan: On a date with his smoking-hot wiener girl.
-
Chuck: You know, if we were really dating this would be the part where I'd be forced to kiss you goodnight.
Sarah: Forced? Would it be so bad?
Chuck: (smiles) I'm sure I could suffer through it.
Sarah: Me too.
-
Chuck: I'm sorry guys. And Anna.
Anna: "Guys" is fine, I don't mind.
Chuck: No, it's not right, we need to come up with something non-gender-specific. How do we feel about "team?"
Anna: "The little Nerd-Herders?"
Lester: "The Lesters?"
Jeff: "Chuck's Stable of Hos?"

Chuck: Okay, this is my first foray into major undercover spy work. So, you could ease up on the sarcasm, that would be great. And, how am I supposed to recognize La Ciudad? Is there a picture or something?
Casey: If there was a photograph, why would we need you?
Chuck: What did we just talk about?
Casey: Oh, I'm sorry. We're hoping something at the event triggers a flash.
Chuck: See, that's all you had to say.
-
Sarah: Don't worry about tonight: no reason to be nervous, I'm not going to leave your side.
Chuck: Me? Nervous? C'mon, never.
Sarah: Your hand is a little moist.
Chuck: It does that when I'm freaking out.
-
Casey: Toughen up. You'll be fine: assuming you know how to tango
Chuck: I did some preparation, I wouldn't call myself an expert but...
Sarah: (freaking out and looking at him) Why would he need to know how to tango? Is that code?
Chuck: No. Not… no. He told me I'd need to know how to tang...
(Casey chuckles, Sarah smirks)
Chuck: (wryly) Spy humor. I like that.
-
Casey: Don't worry. You're gonna be fine. Nothing's gonna happen to you. Assuming you know how to tango.
Chuck: Seriously?
Casey: Oh, I don't joke about your life.
-
Chuck: Why are these people sleeping?
Casey: They're not sleeping.
Sarah: These people were killed, Chuck, and we would like to know why.
Chuck: I have no idea!
Casey: Well, look again.
Chuck: I would rather not! It's kinda creepy!
-
Morgan: Just wanted to come by and say I'd love to help, but A, I lack the skill set, and B, old computers give me the willies. You have no idea how much courage it's taking just to stand here.
Chuck: I'm really proud of you, buddy.
-
Harry: Chuck, Big Mike wants to see you.
Chuck: Not now, Harry. Can't you see I'm with a customer? (Leans over to the kid playing on the video game) I am sorry sir, this is not usually how we do things at Buy More.
(Harry leaves and Big Mike comes up behind him)
Big Mike: Now, Chuck.
Chuck: I was just on my way to see you. That's crazy. (Whispers to the kid) Pause that.
-
(to Sarah and John, who are arguing.)
Chuck: Mom. Dad. Can we get on with it? I have hard drives to fix.
-
La Ciudad: I think your hand is supposed to be on my hip.
Chuck: Right. Apparently I learned the girls' part of this dance. Would you mind leading?
-
Chuck: So, dress attire for this evening: sneakers or are we classifying this more as a shoe event.
Casey: We rented you a tux.
Chuck: Oh, that's very ni...how did you know my size?
Casey: NSA, we have records of your rental information on prom night. (Chuck's jaw drops) I checked the suit in your closet.
-
Chuck: Right then, I'm gonna fix some hard drives. Good luck with the spy stuff.
