This episode of ‘Chuck’ could have sent the show down a very bad path, but thankfully it all worked out. Well, at least for now.

I know we’re all supposed to pretend like nothing’s changed, but it would be funny if Trevor came back from his tour in Afghanistan and said to new TJ “I feel like I don’t even know who you are.”

The word “heartbreaking” came up throughout the episode. From the preview last week, I was pretty sure what we were getting into. This still wasn’t an easy episode to watch, but man, powerful.

‘The Chicago Code,’ despite taking some knocks, is a damn fine show. Tonight, is another example of that, and reminds us the show shouldn’t be all about Gibbons.

Spencer? You’re my hero. Not only because you endured a trauma tonight, but also because you defied your stuffy family by planting a big wet one on someone right in front of them! When there’s a festival involved, big things happen.

I found this week’s episode much more enjoyable than last week, which is a big reason why I didn’t write about it. For a return episode, I didn’t find last week to be as compelling as I’d hoped, though the show made up for it this week.

Does House have faith in his own ability to heal? Does he have faith in Cuddy’s ability to forgive? In Wilson’s ability to stick by him through thick and thin? Why is George Michael playing a soundtrack throughout my head?
