... And if John Casey ever starts quoting Shan Yu, someone is gonna have to put me to bed b/c I will be done for the rest of the week!
I aim to misbehave, but I usually miss!

You guys... The show has WRITERS, you know. Adam Baldwin doesn't get to write his own scripts. There must be Browncoats on the writing staff.

Didn't the whole episode have a River Tam Vibe going on last night, at least with the whole brilliant kid sent to "gifted school" story, all a government cover story?
Maybe it was just me, many Riveresque overtones last night on Chuck
"And I think calling him that is an insult to the psychotic lowlife community."

I was up and about during the show, so I didn't catcht the finer points, but you bring up a good point. "River" didn't kill anyone, she just did what her handlers programmed her to do. Much like w/ the geek in the show.

I never got that reference until I went to TWOP and they were discussing it. I see now it may have been a nod to FF, considering it was a geek haven's episode. I mean they covered Jedi (Leiah's slave girl outfit) Dune (sand worm) Bond, even to a small degree Batman with the female Nerd Herder dressed as a cat, so maybe it was a shoutout to FF. And Griz is right, it's the writers who write the show, not the actors.
Most of what they talked about on TWOP was the ending, that was a near perfect shot of an episode of the OC. If anyone watched it you might have noticed. I certainly didn't, that whole slow mo scene just had too much Ho-Yay going on. Not big on the Ho-Yay.
And no, have to say I don't see the smiliarities between Morgan's outfit and Simon. I don't think they were making that much of a nod. Same with the storyline of a genius. If anything they were showing what Chuck's life could have been like if he had just a little bit more genius in him. The episode was more of Chuck's opposite. Someone like him who had a different evolution in the Company. Made for Chuck really thinking about what this new life of his is about.
And hell, I'm proud of the guy. Not only did he (some may think cruelly, I say it's about time) put Morgon in his place by having him grow, if only a little, he stood up to Casey. He THREATENED to kill Casey if he bugs (wiretaps) his sister. I'm happy to see Chuck starting to grow some (hair). Now if only he'll stand up to that idiot Harry (Tiberius) Tang. That man needs to be taken down a peg, especially now that he's Chuck's boss.
What would have made the episode complete was for Casey to show up dressed as Jayne, Chuck asking him what he was dressed as, and Casey casually remarking "I don't know, saw it on a show once. 
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, one last thing. Don't know if anyone realizes, but the man conducting the interview was The Tick's sidekick from the live action show.

When they were sitting on the..... bed?
Confused Chuck watcher.
Did anyone else note that the bomb ended exactly 0.07 seconds?

I did adore the Sandworm costume... and the Leia costume. And Tiberius as Harry Tang's middle name? Guffaw!
