In reply to Larry. Lol, Dector did say that it was all planned no coincidence, u might be right. Then again it could be a dream sequence, or Morgan might be just doing his comic relief again and lied when he said I know Kung Fu, he might not be able to store the interect in his brain. Because back in season 1 when Chuck was trying to work out how and why he got the intersect, it was for the fact that he had the ability (photographic memory), just a thought.

In reply to Phoebe. If Morgan "has always been the driver" then doesn't it make sense that he is the bigger conspiracy that is referenced at the end of the episode? Has Morgan been hiding his evil behind a veil of comic relief?

I wonder if Morgan was telling Sarah what he thinks is happening. As in “don’t worry, Sarah, I bet Chuck is flying to Russia right now and fixing all of this. I bet he’s riding a cool motorcycle and…”. I’m basing this on the limo scene where Chuck asks him where the driver is and Morgan responds (something to the effect of) “I’ve alwalys been the driver”. Maybe he was “driving” the whole story in the hospital room. Other things I think can support this theory is just how well everything fell into place and how how where some things didn’t, they were just brushed over. For example: when Volkof/Winterbottom finds out about his daughter he just shrugs and agrees to put it on hold. Casey saying “he’s the second best spy I know” sounded more like something Morgan would want Casey to say, the motorcycle just happening to be there, the CAT squad just happening to show up. It all worked out just a little too well.
What do you think?

I have watched the Cliffhanger several times now and think it is a good episode. However the last five minutes are awful. I have cooled down since my first post and still believe that the intesect problem needs to be addressed in season 5 episode 1. Morgan either gets it out or both he and Chuck have it. The reaon the show is called Chuck is because he is the intersect, We have seen the intersect removed more than once from Chuck and it causes angst. More so than Chara angst. If this show is to make the fans happy,then the producers and writers need to get the intersect back into Chuck where it belongs. I like Morgan but he is there for comic relief not as a main source of action. I said before that the way this was left will defiinitely kill the show. Had this been the actual end, I would have asked for a two hour movie special to fix this. How do we as fans finally get the show fixed so that Chuck gets the intersect back, I am not sure. This I do know, if this was not the final season, the writers set this up to be the end of the show! Lets end it the way the fans want it to end and lets ha13 episodes with great action with Chuck being the intersect for each one. Please let this message be heard by the powers thatbe in the Chuk production world.

In reply to stooge101. stooge101: See I always thought of Morgan as a normal kinda cool/funny sidekick. But if Morgan has the intersect the show wouldn't be called Chuck, it would be called Morgan.

In reply to Beh. I do not think they would do that, its up there with leaving people dead cough castle. It would seriously put people off watching any other shows they did, i think we will probably get a very satisfying Push Mix style ending. It just is not the way Josh and Chris roll and I am grateful for that. They take the knocks from the fans and deliver good stuff to us. So thanks Team Chuck. It will be open for more adventures but there will be closure maybe sarah says "chuck .. hmmm i need a few months break ... your going to be a dad". I for one am very happy they do ending like the way they do in this show its why i come back for more. Got fed up of smallville, castle, stargate. While I hated Chuck season 3 it does have my favourate episode honeymooners and not sure about morgan the intersect. I hope we will see more chuck and sarah moments, with casey and morgan the other Bromance as chuck noted when he was talking about the pre-nup. The warmth and love and looking back over this season there is so many great moments that remind me why i fell in love with this show. There were moments that i cried.. i do wish we had more wedding it was hard to feel it as it felt like a dream.. but they delivered mostly a good season. SO chill the only fly in the ointment is morgan intersect and i will wait for comic con to see what they are going to say ... i am worried about it but it maybe ok if we do not lose all those wonderful chuck and sarah moments. But if you look back morgan is in them and hes a bigger shipper than us all. From what i hear they are aiming for A team and Heart to Heart vibe with freelance spies - that sounds aces chuck

Just my two cents… The finale showed that there was a huge conspiracy to make all that happened to Chuck occur. The guy stated that everything was planned meticulously. If you take that as true and they are THAT good…then Chuck would have an impossible time trying to escape anything further they have planned for him. The chances of him avoiding their scheme would be exactly zero.

That is, unless something happened that they couldn’t have planned…like say, Morgan getting the intersect.

Just a guess…but the next season will deal with Morgan handling the intersect and how it affects his life. It will most certainly bring Chuck and Morgan closer to one another because, now, Chuck will have someone close to him go through the same thing as he did. They will have a greater understanding of one another.

But, near the end of the season, Chuck will get the intersect back because he is the only one who can use the intersect properly. Morgan’s use of it will be typically “Morgan”, mostly comedic, but with a serious plot-line through it.

To me, this sounds like a serious attempt to expand the Chuck franchise. Maybe they know that the upcoming Friday night time-slot is where most shows are put to die. So, they are setting up a new type of series? Maybe…but it also might be an attempt to bring a new kind of start to the show to get some more viewers interested in it.

No matter, either way I have been a fan of the show since episode one and I will stay faithful to it because they haven’t let me down yet.

Lastly, I’m surprised no one but me has brought this up. Did I hear correctly in the finale that Jeffster is done? Say it isn’t so! I’m a HUGE Jeffster fan and if they aren’t on as the band I’ve come to love…then my sorrow will be great…

Thats a very LAZY way to end the show to me! IF that was the ending alot of fans (myself included) would ask: Why did I waste the last 4 years! It makes all the Character development a void! I think we fans would riot if that happened!!

What if we learn in season 5 that these was all Chuck’s dream and that he was really in a comma after the intersect was loaded into his brain. That all the characters in his dream were the people he knows in reality….just saying

In reply to DrWoodcomb. I disagree because that episode would have cut and preped for air before they knew Chuck was coming back for real. I think the episode as is, would have served as a nice ending if the show was not picked up. The story was complete and the end would show that the team would carry on working together..
