The "Old Spice Guy" Makes an Appearance and Apple Juice Prevents a Nuclear Explosion on Chuck

Chuck featured a cameo by Isaiah Mustafa as a super-spy/intersect who steals Casey away from Sarah and Chuck. The episode begins with Casey acting weird and avoiding his team.
Sarah and Chuck suspect he's gone lone wolf on them and is busy wiping out bad guys on his own. But of course, the real reason is that he's been ordered to form a new team with Isaiah Mustafa and a token hot-spy-lady/Victoria. Except, of course, they're emotionless monsters who are borderline trigger happy. The plot thickens when Chuck finds out that they have been equipped with the same software that makes him an intersect, minus the emotional sensitivity. So now Chuck gets jealous and mad because he's not special anymore. Boo hoo. Someone give him some apple juice (Thanks Casey!).

Old Spice Guy and token hottie take down the random Russian thugs who are protecting the guy with the nuclear bomb. Okay. So now the plot is just ludicrous. So this guy wants to blow up the city with a nuke but to do so someone would have to kill him (since the detonator is triggered if his heart beat stops. Duh). Shouldn't he have just let Isaiah Mustafa shoot him? I probably missed something vital but hey, I was too busy staring at Isaiah Mustafa to care about the gaping plot holes (which was probably the writers' intent anyway). So long story shot, the guy with nuke gets gunned down by hot-spy-lady and Chuck disarms the nuke using apple juice because it has 200mg of sodium in it. Are you listening Japan?! You should be flooding those reactors with fruit juice.

Chuck saves the day and Isaiah Mustafa is umm disarmed and he's back to normal, no doubt heading out to make his next body wash commercial. Chuck is still special and Casey confesses he felt left out. Aww. Someone give him a hug and tell him to f***ing grow up. But the problem isn't resolved yet. The C.I.A still plans to create more intersects, if the sinister sounding woman with the evil gleam in her eyes is to be believed. *sigh* Somehow the most sensible part about this entire charade was the part when Chuck and Sarah randomly went to Tblisi to securely transport "Jana", a cute little dog with a pink dress, back to the United States according to the wishes of an imprisoned arms dealer. Even Isaiah Mustafa couldn't rescue this episode. But token eye candy does ease the pain.
