Err wouldn't a lot of that just flip the car and if you jump out of a car travelling at speed x you're still travelling at x miles an hour when you hit the road.

Not jumping out but you are suppose to downshift and let of the accelerator when you have no breaks.

But some people panic when they are put in that situation.

Exactly.  I might also note that cutting the brake lines (I.e.; draining the fluid) does nothing to cut the emergency brakes.  Separate system.  But, of course, in the movies and TV shows, everyone who loses their brakes immediately steps on the gas and races down the curvy mountain road until they go off the cliff. ::)

What I thought was (and still is) a bit ridiculous is Chuck´s habit to carry a tranq gun. It is in character, somehow, but a bit pointless when everybody around him are armed with real guns.
For the psychological effect “I didn´t kill him” in case they all would be forced to fire, is it a really poor excuse and it is just for an effect. I am sure Chuck is ready and perfectly capable of carrying a real gun (he got a CIA service gun after all, what happened to it?) and maybe even use it. I would like to see him deal with the killing again, but with someone who would stay dead this time.

It just looks, I don´t know, funny and I am not sure how can some other agents take him seriously when he runs around with a tranq gun. He is an agent now, "a real spy" as they say far too often, so they should make it work properly.
I know Chuck is Chuck and we like him for that, but when Casey handed him a real gun in "Cubic-Z", he was obviously ready to use it against Penzer so why the hesitation?

So, I've lost count how many times has Castle been infiltrated now? 8 , 9 ?

But in this case we know that Volkoff has people in the CIA and we can assume that Vivian have the controll of them, if she are in controll of Volkof industry! So that means that she could easily put in some of her people in castle;) But agree that sometimes it seems like anyone can get in to castle.

Either that, or get rid of the big neon sign saying "Secret CIA Base." :P

This episode was pretty decent, in my opinion. I never liked RG's character but the end of this episode just turned it around for me. The emotion on her face when she was sitting with the bomb in the Intersect room said a lot. She was always portrayed as the stone-cold director but this scene showed that she was not entirely fearless. I love it when characters leave on a good note :)

Also, it seems that I am one of the few who were surprised by the VV revelation. Just like a previous poster said, I guess I was just distracted by RG and the new Intersect project.

I don't know why but this is probably my least favourite Chuck episode ever! I didn't hate it I just didn't enjoy it very much.

One of the things I love about the show is the fact that Chuck is supposed to be a regular guy but with an incrdeible gift - he's unique! But the last few episodes have messed with this formula - First with the 2 Greta's getting the intersect and now Chuck trying to find an almost identical Chuck! Once again - He's supposed to be unique!!! I don't like it.

I also thought this episode was a classic 'filler' and didn't really take the plot forward (Apart from Ellie & Awesome at the end).

I also thought it was quite predictable and it feels a little like the shows running out of fresh new ideas :(

I hope I'm totally wrong though and there's a really fresh and exciting storyline in the final 5 episodes - I want some real tension back!!
