I've heard elsewhere that it was indeed Polish in that scene, but I personally couldn't even begin to comment whether it was Americanized or not. Now if they spoke Korean or French, I would be able to tell you. smile.gif

Impressive. However most of the time, the kind of lingual mastery required to notice slight nuances and inflection differences is reserved for native speakers. Or persons who have spent a great deal of time living in the country of said language.

The real challenge (read: pain in the a$$) in the nuance and pronounciation of polish, and all slavic langauges really comes in those damned sharp s,c,z,dz,u, and accented a(ou)e(eu) etc. That kind of cultural and linguistic frustration I know first hand. ... disregard the tangent.

Thanks for the translation! I was wondering what they were saying there exactly. Now it makes perfect sense in terms of how that scene played out.

CHUCK

CHUCK VERSUS THE WOOKIEE

NBC cancelled the 2 episodes they had for 12/15/07 & 12/22/07. Anyone have news if this one has also been cancelled?

I keep wondering how Carina found Sarah in this episode. After their fight scene, they each asked the other which cover they were using, so she obviously didn't know to look up "Sarah Walker" in the white pages. I know that when they were over at Chuck/Ellie's appt earlier they made it appear that someone was outside watching them. So then I thought maybe she had looked up Casey and happened to stumble on Sarah next door and follow her home, but she seemed kind of surprised to see Casey the following morning. So....how did she know where to find Sarah?

Well, the whole operation sounded like a joint operation between the NSA/CIA and the DEA, so I'm sure Carina's higher-ups talked to Sarah's higher-ups and got Carina the intel on where to find Sarah.

It is possible, I suppose. My issues with that would be that a) I would have a hard time believing that the CIA would release that info to a "competing" agency without at least giving the agency a heads-up and cool.gif She (Carina) apparently didn't know the cover name that Sarah was using. I would think that if she was sent there she would have had the name of the person she was seeking out.

Maybe it's to protect Sarah's cover? Since Carina knows Sarah previously, she can make eyeball contact and find out Sarah's cover directly.

I believe I read that one or more of her parents is Polish-born, so she grew up with the language, but in Australia surrounded by Australians, so she probably speaks it with a bit of an Aussie accent. Her birth name is Strzechowski, but it's spelled more or less phonetically here in the States.

May have been answered before and I apologize if it has, but what's that game that everyone is playing at the beginning of "Chuck versus The Wookie?"

Thanks

When Sarah mentioned her sister at the beginning of the episode, I thought Carina was going to end up being that sister-that-you-love-to-hate. But hey, this wasn't the first time I've been wrong.

Chuck and Sarah kinda remind me of Scarecrow and Mrs. King. laugh.gif


VBARKLEY, after watching this episode again for the 50th time (j/k) I am now wondering even more if Carina is Sarah's sister. Reasoning:
1) In the game they were playing at beginning of epi. Sarah was talking about how she and her sister were got a bad sunburn.
2) When Peyman (Mr Wookie) caught them checking out his diamond, Carina tells Peyman that Sarah is her sister and Chuck is their brother.
3) Carina hugs Sarah as if they are really close and at the end of episode.

Now after saying all that Carina did invite Chuck back to her room if they survived so would a sister really do that to her sibling... who knows....

well anyway, just sayin....

I can understand your reasoning...but if that were the case we would see that she would be a reoccuring guest, which I did not see in any of the written material. We do see that for Bryce, Lou, and some of the other guests. Would she come back again....? Possibly, but I don't see her as a regular guest.

Now the sister thing has been introduced...which probably is legit, and I wouldn't be surprised to see her show up some how. I can see a scenerio where her sister gets into trouble and Sarah needs to bail her out. Or they happen to run into Sarah's family thus possibly comprimising her cover.

One thing we do know, at least is being hinted, Sarah has had little contact with her family. During the "Nemisis" episode she tells Chuck that she hadn't celebrated Thanksgiving in a few years.

They will develop this more somehow...they need to break through her exterior and make her more vulnerable so that this thing between her and Chuck can further develop. Based on the ending...she is wants this come out...she is struggling with wanting to be real.

One final thought. Her and Carina may have had a lot in common in the past, living the fast life, living for themselves. But losing Bryce and then meeting a guy like Chuck has definetly challenged her value systems. The tremors are only beginning in this girls life.

I hope Sarah wasn't lying about having a sister; that she doesn't have to cover herself that much, but I'm not sure...
