Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Chuck and Sarah are assigned to train under Craig and Laura Turner, a married CIA team who, despite their impeccable record, hate one another. The Turners’ stormy relationship forces Chuck and Sarah to wonder if they’re doomed with the same fate. Meanwhile, Casey must train the newest member of the team – Morgan.

Our Take

A fun guest spot episode carried almost entirely by Fred Willard and Swoosie Kurtz, who clearly relish playing a married spy duo that can’t stand each other. The Chuck and Sarah relationship stuff is familiar ground by now, but the Casey and Morgan training subplot earns real laughs. Nothing groundbreaking, just a solid, well-cast comedy hour that moves quickly and never wears out its welcome.
