"But it-it's Christmas!" "Look, I'm not buying the whole Scrooge act, okay." "Underneath that spy cover is a regular person just like the rest of us." "I mean, honestly, how weird could Christmas have been for you?" "Christmas at the Burton household meant the annual Salvation Army con job." "Okay, well, it's, uh... okay, you're a little different than the rest of us." "But Christmas at the Bartowskis means eggnog, PJs, a fake gas fireplace and that's right-- Twilight Zone marathons."

"Anna won't speak to me, you know, after I balked at the whole moving in together thing." "She thinks you're immature." "Afraid to grow up and be an adult." "Exactly."

"I mean, the store is already locked down, so I can't really go anywhere." "Yeah." "Sure, of course." "All right." "Be back in a sec." "It's about time the cavalry showed up." "So what's the plan?" "The plan is to lock you in the Castle till this is over." "Come on..." " Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Hey, whoa, whoa." "What about Ellie and Morgan and everyone else?" "We're instructed to remove you and only you, Chuck." "There's a team coming to extract the rest, and they will be in good hands." "I'm not just going to leave my sister behind." "There are rules, Chuck, and we have to follow them." "So let's go..." " I understand that there are rules, but when it comes to family and friends, there's a time to break 'em." "Get in the hatch, Bartowski." "Chuck, you're letting your emotions cloud your judgment." "I promise nothing bad will happen to them." "Now please, come on." "I can't take that chance." "NED:" "Chuck, is that you?" "John, John." "(screaming)" "No, no, no, Ned!" "Chuck, what's going on?" "Ned, Ned, please, please, please don't shoot that gun." "Who are they?" " They're harmless." "They're harmless, okay?" "Look, they heard your crash and they hid." "This is my girlfriend, Sarah." " Hi." "Hi." " And this is John Casey, who's even more harmless than she is." "John Casey." "Ned, please, just uncock the gun." "Okay." "How do I do that?" "'Cause the truth is, I never used one of these before." "There's probably a button on it, like a safety or something like that." "Just go ahead and push..." " No, no, no!" "(gunshot) Oh, my God." "Chuck!" "We have gunfire." "I repeat: we hear gunfire." "NED:" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "CASEY:" "My foot!" "I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry." "Are you okay?" "I didn't mean to shoot you, I promise." "We need a SWAT team down here pronto." "CHUCK:" "It's okay, everyone." "It was a mistake." "An accidental shooting." "But Casey is going to be just fine." "You idiot." "You owe me a toe, Bartowski." "(nervous chuckle)" "You're gonna be okay, John." "A lot of people get by with nine toes." "I'm getting by fine with eight." "How much do you think a toe is worth to Casey?" "Why?" "Maybe there's a finder's fee." "You know, I survived three wars without so much as losing a fingernail before I met you, Bartowski." "Look, I'm really sorry about your toe, John, but I had the situation under control." "You're the one who scared him." "You okay?" "I'm just scared." "I've never been this close to a gun before." "Yeah, me, neither." "You know what?" "We'll... we'll be okay." "We just have to stick together." "Big Mike, Morgan," "Jeff, Lester, come here." "Get over here." "I don't know about you guys, but I've had enough." "This guy is dangerous." "We need to take him out before anyone else gets hurt." "He's right." "The store closes at midnight." "We got lots of merchandise to move." "Fellas, I don't know." "Time to be a man, Morgan." "Yeah, you know, I'll do it." "I'm in." "I'm in." "So am I. CHUCK:" "Wait." "Hold on." "This is a very, very bad idea, okay?" "Ned shot Casey on accident." "He's not trying to hurt anybody." "We need to let the police handle this." "Chuck's right." "Let the cops handle this." "I know you guys work at a Buy More, but I'm a doctor." "Okay, I take risks every day." "This is a matter of life or death." "Someone needs to man up and take action." "Someone needs to be a hero." "No, they don't, Devon." "Being a hero is being alive to take care of your friends and family." "(phone ringing)" "NED:" "Chuck." "Chuck, they keep calling." "You better answer it." "CHUCK:" "Yeah, coming right now." "Don't do anything." "Do nothing." "I will be right back." "Hey, hey," "I, uh..." "I feel terrible about shooting your friend's toe off." "No, no, no, no, that's okay." "Sometimes, I feel like shooting him myself." "This is Chuck." "Okay, okay, talk to me, Chuck." "We heard gunfire." "What's going on in there?" "Everything's under control." "Everything is-is just fine." "There was an accidental shot fired and someone lost the majority of their toe, but besides that, everything's okay." "(growls) MAUSER:" "Put him on the phone." "I want to talk to him now." "He wants to talk to you." " Huh?" "Well, ask him what he wants." "I want to know what his demands are." "He wants to know what your demands are." "Well, I don't know." "Uh, I have to think about it." "Can you call back in, like, five minutes?" "Yeah, yeah." "So, uh... so what are you gonna do, Ned?" "Well, maybe I should call my wife." "She always knows what to do in these situations." "Yeah, that-that's a great idea." "Maybe you could let everyone else make a call, too, check in with their loved ones, let them know that they're safe." "Okay, Chuck." "Yeah." "(beeping)" "Hey, honey, it's me." "Uh... well, I'm okay." "Look, uh, I know this is gonna sound bad..." "Hey, Mom and Dad." "Hi, guys." "Yeah, everything is awesome." "Well, not really, but we'll be okay." "WOMAN:" "Hi, there." "You've reached the Love Chat Line." "Looking to chat with someone special?" "Press 1." "MAN:" "Lompoc Correctional Institute." "Yes, I'd like to speak to prisoner 27318, aka Mom." "Hey, baby." "Save your breath, Morgan." "POWELL:" "Hey, Big Mike." "How you holding up in there, partner?" "Surviving, partner." "Any shoppers lining up out there?" "Mother?" "Johnny Boy." "Yeah, I'm okay, uh..." "(phone ringing)" "Hi, Chuck." "Where are you?" "DVDs." "I'm in the romantic comedy section, although, for irony's sake," "I suppose I should probably be in hostage thrillers." "So, uh, Ned let everyone call their loved ones." "That was pretty smart to call me." "Protect our cover." "Yeah, well, you are my girlfriend." "Sort of." "So, does that mean your offer still stands for Christmas?" "See, I knew you could be heart-warmed." "(chuckling)" "I actually, um..." "I have something for you." "I was gonna give it to you tomorrow, but considering the circumstances," "I kind of want to give it to you today." "Chuck, we're gonna get out of here." "We'll be fine, I... promise." "Wow. (chuckles)" "It's beautiful." "It's good luck." "It was my mom's charm bracelet." "My dad gave it to her when Ellie was born." "Oh, Chuck, I can't take this." "This is something real, something that you should give to a real girlfriend." "I know." "(phone ringing)" "Chuck." "Duty calls." "(phone continues ringing)" "Hey, this is Chuck." "Chuck, what does he want?" "This is Lieutenant Mauser." "He wants to know what you want." "I want to go home and spend Christmas with my family." "All right." "Tell him I'm coming in, Chuck." "I'm unarmed." "I just want to talk so we can get him and everybody else home for Christmas." "Okay." "Okay, all right, yeah," "I'm-I'm gonna come open the door right now." "(beeping)" "(door slams)" "I'm completely unarmed, Ned." "Just want a little face time so we can talk this out." "Chuck, you come back over here." "Okay," "I don't want to go to jail." "It's okay." "We're gonna work on that." "But in the meantime, what do you say you and I make a trade, okay?" "Me for two of your hostages." "It'd make a lot of people out there feel a whole lot easier." "Yeah, in here, too." "Okay, okay, two people can go." "Okay, good, good." "Um, what do you say we start with the injured man?" "He looks like he needs medical attention." "I'm fine." "Good." "Let Ellie go." "No, no, Casey, thank you, but you need to go." "Your toe could be infected." "Chuck, you've been a good friend to me, so I'm gonna return the favor." "I'm gonna let your girlfriend go." "No!" "Chuck?" "Ouch." " Yikes." "It'll be a cold Christmas at the Bartowskis." "Oh, no, he didn't." "I didn't." "I don't..." "I don't mean I don't want my girlfriend to leave because clearly, I would really like for Sarah to leave and be out of harm's way." "That's not what I'm saying." "What I'm saying..." "what I'm saying is that..." "I'm not your only friend here," "Ned, you've endeared yourself into the hearts of everyone here." "I think we're all friends." "This is a... we're a family." "We've gonna through a lot, haven't we?" "So we should all leave." "Why don't we all leave together?" "No, just those two." "Okay!" "(grunts)" "(hushed):" "Our team just arrived." "Don't do anything stupid." "Maybe the rest of us can get out of here without losing an appendage." "Uh, Chuck, it's okay." "Trust me." "I'll never let anyone hurt you." "Okay." "Good to finally meet you face-to-face, Chuck." "Yeah." " Did a hell of a job." "Pretty impressive for a retail jockey." "I just want all this over as soon as possible." "So do I, Chuck." "So do I." "Hey, don't worry about it, buddy." "I'm a pro." "Everything's gonna be just fine, okay?" "Wait, wait, wait, wait!" "Chuck, look, you did a good job, but I'll take it from here, okay?" "Yeah, but-but you know what?" "Um, Ned is really uptight, so maybe, maybe I should go over there and talk to him and tell him that you're taking over." "Kind of put him at ease so he doesn't get upset." "So you guys developed a little trust, did you?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Oh, yeah, good idea." "Good." "Listen to me, Ned, you have to listen to me very carefully." "This guy Mauser-- he is no good." "He is not a good guy, okay?" "We cannot trust him." " Why not?" "We have to let everybody out of the store right now." "If I let everyone out, then I'm not gonna have any bargaining chips." "I can't go to jail, Chuck." "Okay, look, the people I was talking about-- the people that can help, they work for the government, see?" "They will do anything they can to protect me." "That's the only bargaining chip that you need." "Ned, you have to trust me." "You need to let everyone go." "I haven't let you down yet, have I?" "Thanks, Chuck." "I'll take it from here." "Okay, okay." "Well, Ned... it's time the rubber hits the road." "What do you say we make a deal?" "Hmm?" "Hey, no, look, no, no, that's okay; that's okay." "You need medical attention, Major Casey." "No, I'm fine." "Let's end this." "How's it look in there?" "Better." "Ned seemed to calm down after he talked to his wife." "Yeah, where is she?" "You didn't bring her down here." "Wife?" "What wife?" "There's no record of Ned being married." "He's right." "There's no record of him being married." "We saw him make a call." "Trace it." "See if we can find out who he was speaking to." "(typing)" "Look, boys, this guy is tired and frazzled." "I say we take him out." "Anyone else play ball in college?" "Played some linebacker." " I did not." "I did a lot of Madden on the PlayStation 3." "Does that count?" "Be bold, Morgan." "All right, I'm in." "All right." "Listen up." "It's called "The Picket Fence."" "Big Mike and I will be the flanks, all right?" "Morgan, you're the sacrificial lamb." "Jeff, Lester, you're coming up from behind." "Why are we always coming up from behind?" "It seems awkward." "I need everybody..." "Hey, hey, what are you doing?" "Well, we're taking this guy out." "You in?" "No, and neither are you." "This situation is way too dangerous." "Please, Devon, if you love Ellie, don't do this." "Okay, Chuck, you win." "Chuck, can I talk to you a minute?" "(sighs)" "Remember: don't be awesome." "Hey." "Well, Chuck, it looks like Ned and I have worked the whole thing out." "That's great!" "That's great!" "I'll just go tell everybody that we can leave." "No, no, no, no, not just yet, but soon." "First, you and I need to work something out on our own." "I don't understand." "You see, FULCRUM knows John Casey's NSA." "The person he called is in the Buy More right now." "The yogurt girl's CIA." "Oh, my God." "Chuck." "We've lost enough agents to these two." "We knew they were here protecting someone." "We just didn't know who." "So we caused a little ruckus, sent Ned inside to see who they would rush to protect." "Turns out..." "they're protecting you." "(both chuckle)" "I have no idea what you're talking about, Lieutenant." "Do you see, uh, Ned over there?" "I'd hate to see him shoot your pretty little sister if he thought you were not cooperating with me." "Look, I'm, I'm just an analyst, okay?" "Please don't hurt anyone." "Chuck, you're way more than just an analyst." "We did a background check on you." "Turns out you were college roommates with Bryce Larkin." "The same Bryce Larkin that stole the Intersect from us." "Bryce Larkin is dead." "And I'm done negotiating." "(cocks gun)" "Wait." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "Stop him." "Stop him." "Please stop him." "What do you want?" "I want to know where Bryce Larkin and the Intersect is." "And if I think you're lying even a little bit, your sister dies." "Where's Bryce Larkin?" "I don't know." "Then I'm really sorry." "But I know where the Intersect is." "Where?" "It's right here." "All right, Chuck, this is how it's gonna play out." "Ned's gonna release another hostage: you." "Then you and I are gonna go out and get into an ambulance, which will take you to a secure FULCRUM facility, where you'll stay." "I'm never gonna see my sister again, am I?" "No." "Well, then would you mind if I said good-bye to her, please?" "Okay." "But if you say or do anything to call attention to me or your situation, Ned's gonna shoot her, capisce?" "Yeah." "Okay, good." "Go ahead." "They're letting me go." "Oh, thank God." "Good-bye, Ellie." "You know how much I love you, right?" "Hey!" "Hey, cheer up." "It'll be okay." "You're acting like you're never going to see me again." "It's okay." "See you in a bit, Chuck." "Listen, there's a time to be brave and a time to be timid." "This is a time to be brave." "Do it." "Right on, bro." "WOMAN:" "Sir!" "Sir, over here!" "Can we get a statement, sir?" "Maureen Mitsubishi back at the Buy More where, apparently, another hostage has just been released." "We're not sure of his identity, but he does appear to be unharmed." "FULCRUM's got Chuck." "Everybody ready?" "Yeah." "Hands in." "Break." "I hope they're not doing anything risky." "Morgan's with them." "Trust me." "You've got nothing to worry about." "They're getting away with Chuck." "Hey, get back here!" "He's breathing." "He's fine." "That was really stupid, Devon." "At least he's not afraid to take a risk like Morgan." "Finally, this is getting interesting." "Okay, who's next?" "You?" "What the...?" "(groaning)" "Oh!" "Man, did you see that?" "ANNA:" "Lester?"
