Review: Chuck S03E11 - Chuck Versus The Final Exam


In this episode of Chuck, the titular hero has another decision to make; is he going to pull through and be a spy? His final exam will force him to an ending we never see coming. Is this really the end of Chuck as we know him?

After seeing him as doing kung-fu and taking a pill that made him fearless, Chuck has been bordering the lines of his morals pretty often these days. The episode opens with Chuck chasing a guy between the tracks and pulling the trigger. Was this his first kill? Is this all a joke? A bad dream?
I'm afraid not, the scene is very much happening, but not in the way you expect, obviously. Unfortunately, it's the only great thing about the episode which remarkably stays low after the phenomenal episodes of the past few weeks. Chuck becoming a spy is the main story and that's all there really is to tell. It's also made sure we do not forget what's at stake; his relationship with Sarah, him moving out of Burbank, basically everything we know and love about this show, is once again, hanging in the balance only this time, decisions are made.
Look for an episode that will chance the course of the show, indefinitely. It's no more Mr. Nice Spy...
