Trivia

Morgan’s line of “No, it’s just, uh, maintenance, I believe, over here in Sector 7G.,” is a reference to The Simpsons. Sector 7G is the area of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in which Homer Simpson works.

The bank heist shootout scene is an homage to a similar scene in the film The Matrix.

Quotes

Chuck: We haven’t seen you for a while. You ok?
Casey: I’m fine. Let’s hook up later and get facials and chat.

Morgan: You know what? New apartment, I’m gonna go no television. It’ll be very liberating. Kidding, I’m totally kidding. 72 inches dude, bam!

Chuck: It’s kinda like J-Crew for spies.

Bank Manager: Ms. Volkoff. I’ll admit I didn’t see the family resemblance at first, but now, I see your father in you.

(Chuck has stalkings on his head)
Sarah:What are you doing?
Chuck: What? We’re robbing a bank, right? You packed them so…
Sarah: I packed them in case we have a chance to go out later. Take them off. You’ll wreck them!
Chuck: Sorry.
