- Chuck: I need to ask you a favor, and feel free to say "no," and by that I mean say "no," but, uh, could you fix Morgan up with Carina? Make sure you really exaggerate "no" so they can lip read it. They're a little lame, but I think they can crack "no". Sarah: You know, that is a great idea. Chuck: No, it's not. "No" is the answer. You're supposed to say "no."

I get it if that's too much. Or what's your name? What's your real name? (Sarah still sits quietly staring at Chuck) Chuck: Middle name. What's your middle name? Can't you just tell me your middle name? (pauses) Chuck: I'm gonna go and get the napkins. (Chuck walks away) Sarah: (quietly) It's Lisa. My middle name is Lisa.
