Does it shock you that 80% of my encounters with women have been completely without their knowledge?
Honestly, I'm more surprised by the other 20%. But look, buddy, I know you're going through a tough time, but I don't feel comfortable stalking another human being.
Dude, it's not stalking, okay? It's caring enough about someone to learn things about them they won't tell you themselves.
Which is stalking.
What was that about?
I'm helping Ellie and Awesome find a band for their wedding.
Then this, sir, is your lucky day.
We'll handle it from here.
You're going to help me find a band?
No, you misunderstand. You found your band. It is WE. [points to himself and Jeff] We'll play your sister's big day.
Wait-- Wait a minute, you guys have a band?
Jeff...
...Lester...
JEFFSTER!!
That seems very fitting.
Originally, we were going to go with the name "Jester," but we didn't want people to associate us with a couple of fools.
Obviously not.
I can't betray my best friend. How come nobody gets that?
Hmm. Semper Fidelis. Means always faithful in the Marines. In civilian life, means putting your friend's well being above your own. I salute you for that, Bartowski. Well done.
[Casey gives Chuck a small salute]
Yeah, that's-- Thanks, Casey. Yeah. Semper Fi. You know it's a pretty upside down world when this guy's the one picking up the emotional nuances around here.
[Casey winks at Sarah]
No, I get it; he's your best friend.
You know you say that, but I don't think you have a clue what it means. Look, Sarah, I don't have parents. I mean not really. I don't really talk about it because that's the way things are now. But it wasn't always this way. Morgan was there the first day my mom took off. He didn't say much. Because honestly what's a fifth grader supposed to say? But we sat there and split a cherry cheesecake and played Legend of Zelda all night long. And my dad, well that's-- that's a whole other story. But Morgan was there for that too. Morgan is more than just my best friend. He's my family! Before you got here, and long after you've gone, Morgan is my family!
...Last night we failed to learn the contents of the Triad's container. And now we don't know what kind of drugs or weapons are floating around the city. And while I appreciate your friendship with Morgan, losing sight of that container endangers many people's best friends, not just yours, Chuck.
I wanted to apologize. I could have been more sensitive before about your friendship with Morgan. It's just-- it's difficult. I don't really have anyone in my life like that who cares about me.
Yeah, you do.
