You, Chuck and Sarah arrived at the hotel all dressed up nicely. You and Chuck walked in arm in arm and Sarah was beside you.

Your dress:

"I don't get it. If Casey's girlfriend is dead, who's the Ilsa Trinchina staying in this hotel? " Chuck asked.

"Probably someone traveling on a fake passport. It happens all the time in Russia. People die and their personal info gets recycled."

" My God, that's so horrible. No wonder Casey's so messed up." you said feeling sad for Casey.

You both saw him walking over to you guys.

"Casey, Oh, hey... Hey, I just-- you know what, I'm sorry about what I said earlier." Chuck said.

" Drop it, Chuck. You heard the General. We've got work to do. Those are our Russians."

He said pointing over to the room where a party was happening.

"Wait, wait, wait-- this isn't a black tie thing. I'm way overdressed."

"Yeah, lose the jacket." Casey said helping him take it off then handed you and Chuck trays with drinks on them.

"What's this?" you asked.

" Yeah, perfect. " Casey commented before walking away.

You and Chuck looked at each other then back at Sarah.

"You know, it would have been nice to know that we were the help on this mission. We could have done some character study." Chuck said as the three of you began to walk around.

"Recognize anyone, guys?"

Chuck saw one man and flashed.

" That's, uh, Dmitry Siljak. Black market arms dealer."

You saw one man and flashed on him.

"Sergey "Noodles" Romanov. Freelance hit man."

As you continued to walk this one man stared right at Chuck.

"Sacha! Is that you, my sweet Sacha?" The man shouted. You and Sarah looked over at Chuck as he looked back at you, confused and a little frightened." Everybody, meet fourth cousin on my mother's side. Sacha, come and give your cousin great big hug!"

The man then picked up Chuck in a huge hug and you and Sarah quickly and carefully got out of the way and stood off to the side watching the whole scene.

"Sacha wants to dance!"

"No. No, dance, no. Nyet, nyet, nyet, nyet. No." you could hear Chuck shout.

A man then appeared behind Sarah.

"How much for the whole night?"

Sarah then grabbed his arm and twisted it in a painful way.

" Don't touch me again, pig." Sarah said in Russian then roughly let him go.

"Nice." you said looking at her.

"Get low! Get low! We are great dancers, aren't we, us Russians? Like-Like Baryshnikov! White Nights? Anybody seen White Nights? Yes. Yes. We're in a circle. Hold hands." You could hear Chuck say as he continued to dance with the Russians.

You can then see Chuck was flashing on someone. You were trying to figure out who then looked back at Chuck and could see he was pointing at someone but you couldn't tell who.

"Sacha, you like H/C? Come here!" The man shouted and a man came over to you and brought you over to Chuck. Sarah was wondering what was happening as she watched you both.

" Very nice! She is all yours, Sacha!"

"Well she actually is so..."

"Who were you pointing at?" you asked as you danced with them.

"Look over there."

You looked and saw the woman he was pointing at and flashed on her.

"Oh my God. That's Ilsa!"

You then waved over at Sarah trying to get her attention.

"Sacha's girlfriend wants her friend here? Bring her in!"

Then they brought Sarah into the circle.

"She's here. Ilsa is here." you said.

"What? Are you sure?"

"Look over there." Chuck said and Sarah looked over and saw her.

"Casey , Our cover has been compromised. Request team extraction." Sarah said into her watch.

You all saw Casey run into Ilsa and talk as you all continued to dance in a circle.

"We're Russian! Oh. Motherland!" Chuck shouted. He then grabbed your hand and pulled you with him. "Come with me." Then you grabbed Sarah's hand dragging her out as well. "Keep on coming. You crazy people."

You were all out of the circle now and looked at Casey and Ilsa.

" We've got to get him out of here." Sarah said.

" Oh, come on. The guy spent four years of his life thinking he'd never see her again." you said.

" His cover has been compromised."

" Can't the man live without a cover for just a couple of minutes?" Chuck argued.

You then heard a man begin to talk into a mic, standing on top of a table. You and Chuck then flashed on him.

"Sarah? Sarah, I think I know what brought all the baddies together. Him." Chuck said.

" Victor Federov. A Russian oligarch with ties to everything from the mob to a plot to overthrow Parliament." you finished.

The man then announced that he was about to marry Ilsa. You and Chuck looked at each other, then at Sarah then looked over at Casey and you could just see his face drop.

The next day, Chuck asked you if you could join him at work to talk to Casey since it was your day off.

You then saw Casey on the ladder placing some barcode stickers on merchandise and slowly walked up to him.

"Hey, buddy." Chuck greeted.

"Hey Casey. How are you feeling?" you asked.

" How am I feeling?"

" Yeah, uh, you know, about last night?"

"Our mission was a success. You I.D. 'd Victor Federov. Agent Walker's been assigned to set up a surveillance on the target. In short, I feel fan-eff'in-tastic. "

"Well... okay. I-I mean, I guess, uh, you know, I was referring more to the you and Ilsa situation. Thought maybe you'd want to talk about the fact that the girl you thought was dead isn't actually dead." Chuck said.

"No."

"Great. Good, good. Really good session here, Casey. Really feel like you're making a breakthrough. Look, I just... I just want you to know that we're good listeners, okay? So, if you ever want to talk about anything. If you want to use me as a sounding board for your emotions, or..."

Casey then stuck a huge sticker over his mouth and walked away.

"Well that worked out great." You said. You then looked at Chuck and he still had the sticker over his mouth. "Should I remove that."

"Nah...I'm good."

"Alright then. I guess I should get going since that didn't work. I'll see you later?"

"Of course."

You then leaned up and kissed Chuck where is mouth would have been on the sticker and walked away.

Later in the day, Chuck tried to talk to him again while they were on break.

"Come on, buddy. Just give me something, anything. Where is she from? Or where did you two meet?"

" Why is this so important to you, Chuck? Why the hell do you care so much about me and Ilsa?"

" I don't... I don't know, man, okay? I just... I-I think it would be nice to know that you had a life before... this. I just figured, ever since Y/N and I finally got together I've been so much more happier and it's been making this whole spy life a little easier for me just because I have her now. And, no offense, Casey, if a woman can fall in love with you, there's hope for you and maybe it would make you life a little better too. Maybe this whole spy business isn't as screwed up as I think it is."

"Hmm."

" Hmm? That's-That's... Okay, you know what? If you want to go through life all emotionally-constipated and alone, then suit yourself. I'll let you get back to protecting the greater good, you freakin' robot." Chuck said annoyed and getting up, about to leave the break room.

" I met her in a flower market. In Rome." Casey started making Chuck stop in his tracks." Ilsa was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen."

" I knew it. It's alive!" Chuck shouted happy.

Casey continued to tell Chuck all about Ilsa in the electronics department, sitting on a couple of comfy chairs.

"Sure, it was great. You know, we had what we had, but it's over." Casey said.

" So, that-that's it? You're just going to let her walk back out of your life?" Chuck asked.

" Seems like the smart play, Chuck. Nice girls don't marry corrupt Russian oligarchs."

"Well, I hate to break it to you, but nice girls don't go around marrying guys like you, either. G-man assassin? International spy? I mean, pardon me for saying it, Casey, but at least on paper, you're kind of an unsavory dude."

" Granted. But Ilsa never knew what I do for a living."

" That's exactly my point. What if Ilsa doesn't know what her fiance either?"

" What are you saying I do?"

" Stick to your strengths, buddy. Come on. You're a fighter. You got to fight for her. I never gave up on Y/N and look at us now."

Casey looked at him, nodding his head and understanding what Chuck was saying.

"This is a terrible idea, Chuck." Casey said as they walked down a hall of a hotel floor. "We shouldn't be here. Can we just go... ?"

" Negatory. We have passed the point of no return. No retreat, soldier."

"This isn't a mission. We're just two guys sneaking down a hall like a couple of numb nuts."

"Hey don't forget girl!" You said popping in on Chuck's side. "But I don't even know why I'm here. This seemed more like a guy thing. And babe, I was supposed to be spending the night at your place. We could have been having some fun right now." you said quietly so Casey couldn't hear.

"I promise you we will later." Chuck said giving you a wink.

"Alright."

Sarah then popped out, disguised as a worker at the hotel.

"What are you guys doing here?"

" I'd like to apologize, Agent Walker. Uh, Chuck here convinced me... "

"To come... to come down to the hotel, and to bring me, because we... maybe we could flash on some stuff. Some cool stuff or things or whatever." Chuck said stepping in.

" You volunteered to go on an all-night stakeout?" Sarah said now looking at you.

" Doesn't sound like us, does it? I know. But we couldn't sleep. So I thought it would do us some good to-to... to, uh, you know, look at some surveillance monitors or something." you said.

"Maybe... ... knock us right out." Chuck added.

"This way." Sarah said motioning you guys over to a room. " I've already tapped into the hotel security feed. You guys get comfy. I'm going to deliver the surveillance to the bridal suite."

Sarah showed the lid to a platter that had a bug planted inside the lid.

"Good bug." Casey commented.

" With any luck, we'll get enough dirt off the wire to take the target down on U. S. soil."

"Hmm."

"Have fun." Sarah said before leaving.

" Don't wait up. Just going to be looking at, uh... monitors and..." Chuck said.

You, Chuck and Casey were sitting at the desk now looking at the monitors for any sign of Ilsa.

"Um, Casey?" Chuck piped up.

" What, did you flash?"

" Look who's hitting the bar the night before her own wedding. Now, does that look like the face of a woman who's happy about getting married?" Chuck asked.

" Where's she going?" you said when you saw her walk off.

You all saw Ilsa sit down on a couch.

" Look, look, look, look. This is your chance, buddy! This is your chance! Look at her, Casey. She's just sitting there waiting for you." Chuck said.

" Wait a second. You're scared, aren't you?" you asked looking at him.

"Don't be an idiot." Casey said getting up

" Kemo sabe. Come on, man, look, you don't want to spend the rest of your life hating yourself for what you didn't have the guts to say tonight." Chuck said, getting up to stand in front of him. "Okay? Believe me. I know. I wasted so many times not telling Y/N how I felt about her. Who knows, we could have been together a long time ago."

You sat there looking at Chuck, with a sad smile on your face. You felt the same too.

"Look, the point is, we finally told each other and now we are both very happy. And it can be like that for you too."

Casey nodded and left. You got up and stood beside Chuck.

"You know I thought the same too. I hated how much time I wasted as well not telling you. Dating these other guys just for distractions..."

"Hey it's over now. We're together." Chuck said putting his hands on your arms and rubbing them.

" Yes we are." you got on your tip toes to give him a kiss.

As you and Chuck were still watching the monitors you saw Sarah take down a guy.

"Casey, you're going to have to deliver the package. I've got a body to take care of. Keys are in the sugar." you heard Casey speak into the comms.

" Deliver the package?" Chuck asked.

"Casey, do you read me?"

"Uh... Yeah, uh, copy that. On my way." Chuck said , trying to sound like Casey. You laughed a little.

"Nice impression."

"Thanks!"

Chuck got up and got ready to go, changing into a uniform and you went over too, in a uniform as well.

"Y/N you need to stay here and see how Casey is doing."

"Chuck I am not letting you do this alone. We are still new at this."

"But what about..."

"No buts Chuck. We're a team now. You and I. Not just with Sarah and Casey too. So I'm coming."

Chuck nodded and you followed him out. You both found the cart where the bug was hidden.

"Bonsoir. Housekeeping." Chuck said, knocking on the door before entering.

"Okay. Eenie, meenie, miney... moe." Chuck said looking at a light to pop the bug on.

"That could work."

Chuck was struggling to put it on though. As he was working on that you looked over and saw a case and walked over to it. You were able to get it open and a file on Ilsa came up and you flashed on her and who she really was.

" Oh..."

"What?" Chuck asked, looking at you.

You then heard Ilsa and Casey at the door and you and Chuck ran to the bed and hid under it.

Casey and Ilsa got on top of the bed and you knew the two of them were going at it.

"That could have been us right now you know." you whispered.

You looked over at Chuck and it looked like he wanted to puke hearing them. You put your hand over his mouth.

"Chuck do not get sick on me right now. Also Ilsa is not who she says she is."

"What? What are you talking about?"

"I flashed on her."

All of a sudden Chuck's phone went off.

"Bartowski." You can hear Casey say, annoyed.

He then looked under the bed and was shocked to see you too.

"What the hell are you two doing here?"

" Listen, I-I'm, I'm really sorry. I know this is very awkward, but Ilsa is a bad girl. She's a very bad girl." you said.

Casey reached for his gun but then Ilsa already had her gun pointed at him.

"Drop the gun, Sugar Bear."

"See?"
