This episode is one of my favories of the 1st season! The way they intergrate the Buy More, Spy and Awesome and Ellie engagement seamlessly; with the overshadowing threat of Chuck's cover being blown! Ryan McPartlin (Devin "Awesome") was originally just supposed to be only in the 1st season! The writers planned for him to be a Russian spy, but Awesome was so popular with the fans that he and Ellie ended up getting engaged!

Yes this season was shortened due to the 2007 WGA writers strike. This was not intended to be the season finale. In fact it would probably have been a midseason finale, but they tweaked the ending when it became possible they were going to be facing a strike, and they weren't sure when or if they were coming back. There was a chance they were going to be able to do more that season, but if not they wanted to leave it a bit mysterious. A fun thing a GLG-20 is a reference to the movie Spies Like Us, starring Chevy Chase and Dan Akyroid. GLG-20 is the goverment rank of spy there. The EM-50 (the type of bug Casey plants) is the same code used for the EM-50 urban assualt vehicle. the RV from the movie Stripes. Almost every episode of Chuck is filled with little nods to 80s sci-fi/action/comedies.
