Chuck is forced to confront his former college roommate and the man who ruined his life when Bryce Larkin is discovered alive.

Bryce Larkin (Matthew Bomer) is undergoing examination in a CIA detention facility while Casey and Sarah look on.

Casey lets Chuck into the room where he's being held, but Bryce doesn't believe it's him until after a short exchange in Klingon.

He admits his surprise how quickly the Intersect works but as the elevator stops again, Bryce tranquillizes Chuck and leaves him as he makes his escape.

Chuck has to go to his car to get the marshmallows for Morgan's favorite dish and is approached by Bryce, who requests to talk to Sarah without Casey interfering.

Bryce tells them he's not rogue and that he was recruited by Fulcrum for an operation called "Sandwall," which causes Chuck to flash, confirming his story.

He tells them Fulcrum is a rogue faction within the CIA, and he stole, destroyed, and sent the Intersect to Chuck to keep it out of their hands.

Chuck uses a pre-arranged "panic" word ("Pineapple") to trigger an evacuation of the store, distracting Tommy long enough for Casey to get him to the safety of the Home Theater room.

Morgan teaches them to use the word "pineapple" as a code to trigger an evacuation of the store, which the team begins mocking.

When Morgan begins going into ecstasies over his favorite dish, which Ellie makes as a specialty, Anna gets upset and leaves.

Big Mike panics at seeing the customers leave but is unable to stop them and is swept out of the store.

It also marks the first time Bryce was used as a plot device to stagger the development of Chuck and Sarah's personal relationship.
