4.2 instead of 4.5 because I missed his sister this week. With it
being a holiday ep and the hiatus looming she could have at least
passed through a scene.
Otherwise I thought it was a great ep to end the semi-season on.
I don't think Sarah has looked prettier, from her sleeping togs to her
party dress to her bikini to the casual outfit she had on at the party
and that's saying a lot considering that the worst she has looked
(IMO) was the Princess Leia getup in the Halloween ep.
The allusion by the general to hoping Casey hasn't gotten too close to
Chuck was a nice nod to the fact that however reluctantly he may be
being pulled into the Chuck orbit he is slowly but surely becoming
humanized.
Anna looked smoking hot in traditional clothes, and I'm not even a big
fan of Asian women as a general thing. Nice to see her ditch the
punker togs and just look like a normal chick, however briefly. Her
slightly less garish version of her usual look that she had at the end
was a cute look for her, so I'm hoping future eps will go with the
toned-down version. Until this ep I hadn't ever thought of her as
particularly attractive, but she kinda grew on me tonight.
I would have preferred Morgan be a little less farcical in his putting
on airs for Anna's parents. If I had written it I would have had him
more like the "professional" Morgan of a few eps back and her parents
approve (or at least appear to) of him. That could play into her own
discomfort around them because of the front she has to put on (remind
anyone else of Laine Kim on "Gilmore Girls"?). But I'm sure the real
writers would throw out a "We're professional: don't try this at home"
caveat at my suggestions, so...
