Chuck Bartowski quotes from Chuck

Chuck

Look, what if I surrender and you run. I mean I'm going into a cell anyway. What's the difference?

Sarah

Torture.

Chuck

Okay, no surrender.

Chuck

You want to go on a date some time? I mean a date without aliases, and spy gear, and a mission.

Sarah

Like a real date?

Chuck

Yeah.

Sarah

Chuck, I-I'm still a CIA agent. And there are a hundred reasons why I shouldn't do that.

Chuck

What do you have to lose? In a week, you're going to be undercover somewhere in some place like Jakarta, in a knife fight with some evil doer and in that exact moment you're going to wish you would have spent one last night of fun with me.

Sarah

...Okay.

Sarah

What about me?

Chuck

[chuckles] You're really going to make me say it aren't you?

Chuck

Wow, okay. Fine. All right we'll play it your way...A girl like you, or more appropriately, a woman like you. Considering the fact that you could probably kick the ass of everyone in this joint. And a-a smart one at that. Not to mention, cool...and extremely beautiful. And-and...you can stop me any time with the compliments if they're becoming...you know

Sarah

No, that was, uh, very...sweet.

Chuck

"Sweet?" Golly gee, thanks for making me feel like I'm 8.

Sarah

[slight chuckle] Well, you're not so bad yourself.

Chuck

[sarcastically] Please, I'm fantastic.

Sarah

[seriously] Yeah. You are.

Chuck

What exactly are you doing?

I'm stretching. Getting limber.

Chuck

Why are you doing that?

So I won't pull a muscle when I break your neck. Maybe you should get limber too.

Hand it over.

Chuck

What'll you do if I give it to you?

To be honest, I'm a drop you.

Chuck

See this-this is what I'm talking about, we gotta work on your negotiating skills!

Chuck

You...You...

Casey

Yeah, I know, I catch you when you fall. It's touching, really.

Chuck

No no, I love you!

Casey

Keep it in your pants, Bartowski.

Sarah

Okay, look, the sooner we get the Cipher back and the sooner you can have the Intersect removed, and the sooner you can be free to live whatever life you choose with whomever you choose.

Chuck

What are you saying?

Sarah

I'm saying that you can have everything that you've always wanted.

Chuck

Let me see the file.

Ellie

What we need to be is more like Chuck and Sarah.

Chuck

Excuse me?

Ellie

Every time you see her your eyes light up. I mean, How do you keep that spark alive?

Chuck

I-I, you know-I don't think I should be getting involved in-

Awesome

Come on, what's the secret bro?

Chuck

You know what, we-we kinda just, you know, we pretend like we're not really dating, which is weird I know, but it-it-it forces me to have win her over again and again...and again.

Ellie

That is so sweet.

Chuck

Well, it may not be the steamiest, but we probably have the strangest relationship in Los Angeles.

Sarah

Doubt that. Morgan's still dating, right?

Chuck

Good point.

Roan

[preparing Chuck to seduce an enemy agent] We need to talk about protection.

Chuck

I really don't think it's going to get that far, Roan.

Roan

I mean a gun. Do you know why she's called the "black widow?"

Chuck

Because she's African-American, and her husband died?

Chuck

So how can you just sit there and watch them die?

Roan

Because I'm not in love with one of the agents.

Chuck

I'm not...I care about them. I care about both of them. Besides we heard what she said, okay? To her, I'm just an asset.

Roan

No. You're not...Trust me. The lady doth protest too much. But Charles, you have to ask yourself is she worth dying for?

Chuck

Yes.

Roan

Poor boy. Lesson number one for being a spy: never fall in love.

Chuck

Well then I guess I'm not much of a spy.

Chuck

Buddy, what've I told you about direct confrontation with the Mighty Jocks, Mitt specifically?

Morgan

Run with my tail between my legs and go get John Casey.

Chuck

So uh...staying with Sarah, huh?

Bryce

Protecting our cover. How are things between you guys?

Chuck

They're good. Good good good. Solid. Why, did she say something?

Bryce

No it's just, she's a beautiful girl, pretending to be your girlfriend. I was afraid you'd let the lines get blurred and fall for her.

Chuck

[scoffs] What me, fall for Sarah? Please.

Okay, let's try this one more time. The microchip. Please. The microchip now!

Bryce

Release the kid first.

Chuck

Kid? Honestly, we were born in the same year!

Chuck

Look, we both know how I feel about you so I'm just going to shoot straight. Sarah, you're the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. You're beautiful, you're smart, you laugh at all of my stupid jokes and have a horrible habit of constantly saving my life. The truth is, you're everything that I thought I ever wanted and more. And for the last few days all I could think about is our future together. About what it's going to be like once I finally get the Intersect out of my head; we can be together for real, no fake relationships, no covers, no lies. But the more I think about it, the more I realize that you and I can never have a future together. I fooled myself into thinking that we could but the truth is: we can't. Because even if we had a real relationship it would never really be real. I'd still never know anything about you, your real name, your home town, your first love, anything. And I want more than that. I want to be able to call you at the end of a bad day and tell you about some funny thing Morgan did and not find out I can't but I can't cause you're off be somewhere in Paraguay quelling a revolution with a fork. I'm a normal guy who wants a normal life. And as amazing as you are, Sarah Walker, we both know that you will never be normal.

Sarah

You know, someday when the intersect is out of your head and you have the life that you always wanted, you'll forget all about me.

Chuck

I seriously doubt that.
