A Story Line for “Chuck the Sequel” – a story that was never written or aired. A modern-day parable.
D.P. Weary, December
2021
The background: Chuck
the TV series begins with Chuck and a secret CIA computer program that inputted
a complete CIA database into Chuck’s brain. Two CIA agents, Casey and Sarah are
assigned to guard Chuck as he became both a liability and an asset to the CIA.
The CIA soon finds that Chuck is a tremendous asset and assigns Sarah to be his
handler and partner and begin training him to be an agent. Through several
adventures and missions, Chuck and Sarah become friends. The cover story for
Chuck is that Sarah is his girlfriend. Soon this cover story becomes reality
and Chuck and Sarah develop a real boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. As their
many missions continue their relationship grows to the point that they became
lovers.
Many of these missions
involved either Chuck or Sarah getting into desperate situations and the other
one, at the last minute coming to the rescue. Many of the missions in the
series revolve around the secret computer program that Chuck carries in his
head.
As the story develops,
Chuck and Sarah get married. The final season of the TV series are missions and
adventures with Chuck and Sarah, now married and operating as an independent
security company called Carmichael Industries. While they advertise as a
security company, they are still working as spies. This eventually leads to a
real problem involving the CIA computer program called the Intersect and the
end of the series.
During their final
mission as spies, Sarah sacrifices herself by putting a flawed computer program
called Intersect 2 into her brain. With the power and special abilities the
program gives her, she is able to save her long-time spy partner Casey (part of
the Carmichael team) and herself from some very bad guys with big guns that are
trying to kill them. But there are side effects of the Intersect program. Side
effects that cause brain damage and memory loss. A very bad rouge ex-CIA agent
takes Sarah captive and keeps Chuck and her NSA partner Casey from saving her
from the bad effects of Intersect 2 and the memory loss. The rogue CIA
agent lies to Sarah who has lost her memory of the past days and tries to get
her to kill Chuck. These attempts fail and Sarah learns the truth about what
really happened. She believes it but she does not have any memory or feelings
about her past life with Chuck. She feels confused, alone, hurting, and lost,
not knowing who she really is having no memory of her life with Chuck or with
the Carmichael Industries team.
It is at this point in
the story that the team that was Carmichael Industries breaks up and go their
separate ways with a final goodbye. The last scene is one of Sarah and Chuck
sitting on a beach, both lost and hurting, not knowing what the future will
bring.
Chuck the sequel
Our story begins where
the original TV series left off with the last episode of season 5. Sarah asks
Chuck to tell her again about their life together as they sit on a beach that
has been special to them in the past. Then Sarah asks Chuck to kiss her. After
they kiss, Sarah takes Chuck’s hand and says, “I felt that”. With that kiss,
the process of restoring her lost memory of their days together begins. As they
leave, Sarah to her apartment and Chuck his, Chuck asks Sarah for a date.
Chuck takes Sarah to a
restaurant that was a special place for them in the past. They talk about what
they each are going to do to support themselves now. They decide that they will
not dissolve Carmichael Industries but as business partners turn it into a
strictly intelligence-gathering operation using Chuck’s technical knowledge,
electronic skills, and computer skills, and Sarah’s knowledge of intelligence
agencies, spies, and how the spies and spy agencies work. They agree to do this
but without getting personally involved in actual physical field operations. As
they are talking about all of this Sarah gets a memory flash of the two of them
sitting at the same table on a date somewhere in the past.
As Chuck and Sarah
launch the resurrected Carmichael Industries, they contact General Beckman,
director of the CIA, because she had given them an invitation to
rejoin the CIA. They lay out their plans to make Carmichael Industries an
independent contractor to provide intel information and surveillance services
hoping to get some jobs from her.
The General knows that
Chuck is filled with Intersect 3. This is an updated Intersect program that
contains CIA information about operations and people, both good and bad. It
also contains information that enables anyone with the program to have special
abilities and capabilities. It is an upgraded Intersect 2, a program that had
several flaws and adverse side effects. It was these side effects that damaged
Sarah’s brain and her loss of memory. With Chuck’s abilities as a former CIA
spy and his special abilities and information of the Intersect 3, and because
of Sarah’s special effectiveness as a CIA operative, Beckman wants to get them
back into her service.
A little while later
Beckman calls Chuck and Sarah with a proposal of her own. It turns out that
while the Buy More electronics store above an underground CIA facility called
the Castle was sold, the CIA facility was never sold and the CIA retained
control using it only occasionally. Beckman agrees to contract with Carmichael
Industries for services and proposes that Carmichael Industries lease the
Castle from the CIA, now equipped with only electronic intel gathering and
surveillance equipment. She also has a first job for Chuck and Sarah.
During these early days
of starting their business, Sarah finds herself working long hours as long as
Chuck is around, not wanting to go back to her apartment and having to be
alone. And she hates eating alone, always finding ways and excuses to have
meals with Chuck. And Chuck is always more than eager to be with Sarah.
During Sarah’s nights
alone in her apartment, strong emotions of loneliness sweep over her. Her
nights get long and she does not sleep well. When she does sleep, she begins to
dream of places and events that seem somehow familiar but there are no specific
memories that come with the dreams. One night she dreams that someone is lying
beside her and she reaches over to touch. But, no one is there. Bit by bit
pieces of memories of the past with Chuck are beginning to reappear.
It is not many days
before Sarah tells Chuck that she wants to come home but that she still needs
time and space, not yet ready or able to resume the role of his wife. Chuck
tells her that he made a covenant with her to love her and protect her till
death parts them, no matter what happened or what the future brings, and with
tears in his eyes, he welcomes her home with a great big hug.
Chuck gives Sarah their
old bedroom and he moves into the guest room, hoping that her being in the room
will trigger more memories. And sure enough, one night as Sarah
sleeps, she finds herself reaching over to Chuck to cuddle and for a moment was
surprised to not find him there.
In the Middle East
Israel has attacked Iran’s nuclear development facilities and a military
installation where Iran was keeping its almost completed first nuclear bomb. In
response Iran along with several other Islamic nations north of Israel and
backed by Russia attack Israel. Now someone is trying to negotiate a cease-fire
treaty; someone with a lot of influence in both Israel and the nations
attacking Israel. Chuck and Sarah are contracted to find as much intel on this
person as possible. What they find is going to change the whole world.
Their electronic search
for information on this new figure on the world stage takes them to many
locations in the Middle East and Europe. Some of these locations and the people
Chuck and Sarah investigate are the same places and people that they
encountered in their previous missions for the CIA. This again triggers a
little vague but real memories for Sarah of their missions together before her
memory was taken from her.
Beckman keeps giving
Chuck and Sarah more jobs and often they trigger memories for Sarah of special
times with Chuck. Interestingly, the memories are generally of highly emotional
times when Chuck had rescued Sarah or Sarah had rescued Chuck but not of the
traumatic painful events of their missions. Often the memories triggered are of
their romantic encounters as their relationship developed from CIA partners to
friends, then to being real boyfriend and girlfriend. The pieces of Sarah’s
past like pieces of a picture puzzle are starting to come together.
The next job for Chuck
and Sarah involves monitoring a mission for another security contractor led by
Casey’s girlfriend Greta. Casey is now working with Greta and is on a mission
in Alaska tracking down some bad guys who are involved in child trafficking. As
Sarah watches on her monitor, Casey is complaining that he is as cold as he was
the night he and Morgan rescued Sarah when a rogue CIA agent was trying to kill
her by freezing her to death. At this, a new memory flashes in Sarah’s mind. It
is Casey carrying her out of the cold room and taking her to Chuck. She
remembers Chuck stripping the freezing clothes off of her leaving her naked,
laying her on a bed then climbing in with her, embracing her with a full-body
hug, and wrapping the both of them in a blanket. Sarah turns looking at Chuck
almost blushing.
Later, on another job,
Sarah and chuck are monitoring two CIA agents acting like a couple as cover on
a mission. Their job is to identify some bad actors in the room for the agents.
As this couple is dancing a very sensual dance, a memory of her and Chuck once
doing the very same thing comes that is very strong and clear and she feels the
passion that she had felt that night as she and Chuck danced. Sarah turns,
looks at Chuck sitting before their monitor, jumps into his lap, and kisses him
with a new level of passion and love.
During another job for
Beckman, they are tracking a personage in Paris. They find him in the same
hotel overlooking the Eiffel Tower as they were in after Chuck had saved
Sarah’s life. The scene triggers a memory of her waking to find Chuck at her
bedside lovingly taking care of her, she reaching out to him, and he climbing
into bed with her as they make real love together for the first time.
Not too long after this,
one night as Sarah and Chuck are retiring for the night, Sarah calls out to
Chuck and asks him to come help her for a minute. As he opens the door to her
bedroom, he sees Sarah standing by the bed in the very sexy red negligee that
she often wore in the early days of their relationship as lovers. In her eyes
was that old familiar seductive look of “please come and make love with me”.
After this night they never sleep alone again.
After many more jobs for
the CIA, Carmichael Industries' reputation begins to spread and they find other
people and corporations contracting with them. The business is beginning to
flourish.
The next big job for the
CIA involves identifying and tracking down some high-level bad guys that are
dealing in contraband and human trafficking. A giant meteor has fallen into the
Mediterranean Sea damaging many ships in the area. Some of these damaged ships
are found to be transporting military contraband, and others, victims of human
trafficking. Sarah and Chuck are tasked to identify the key players in these
operations and locate them so that Beckman’s agents can put operations in place
to take these people down. It is a very successful operation and many really
bad guys and their illegal operations are taken down.
One day Chuck receives a
call from a new client, a client he was not aware of. It seems that Sarah has
contracted with the client without bothering to confer with Chuck. Being a bad
day for Chuck anyway, he confronts Sarah with some harsh words and gets angry
with her. Sarah then gets upset and angry. As she turns and begins to walk
away, a memory of their first real fight flashes before her. It was a time once
before in the early days when she had done something without telling Chuck.
Turning to Chuck, she just runs to him saying, “I remember the time we got mad
at each other. It was terrible and I don’t want that to ever happen again. I
love you so, so much”. With a passionate kiss, they get back to work.
By now the business has
grown to the point that Chuck and Sarah are swamped and overworked. As they
contemplate hiring more staff, the issue is who has the skills they need, and
who can they trust? Though wild and crazy guys, Chuck remembers the extensive
technical knowledge, and hacking skills of their old friends Jeffery and
Lester. Contacting them Chuck finds that their musical careers are not going so
well and they almost plead with Chuck to hire them. So, Jeffery and Lester
become part of the Carmichael team and are involved in many future jobs. Their hacking
skills prove to be very valuable to the team.
Morgan and Alex have
been living together in the apartment next to Chuck and Sarah’s this whole
while. The relationship between the two couples proves to be very valuable and
effective in the process of restoring Sarah’s memory. Their daily life
experiences often trigger good memories for Sarah.
Then Alex and Morgan
find that Alex is pregnant. The pregnancy only draws Morgan and Alex closer but
Alex’s pregnancy also provides many situations and encounters with Chuck and
Sarah that draw out old feelings of someday becoming parents themselves. Sarah
also begins to regain memories of special times with Chuck’s sister Elie during
her pregnancy.
The event that completes
Sarah’s healing occurs the day Alex delivers her baby. Chuck and Sarah find
themselves in the same hospital, on the same floor, and sitting on the same
bench as the day Elie delivered her baby. As they are sitting there, Sarah
suddenly begins crying and laughing at the same time. Turning to Chuck, she
jumps into his lap, holds his head in her hands, and begins kissing him with
the passion and love that she did the day Chuck proposed to her in that very
same spot. Her only words are, “I remember”.
As Sarah and Chuck go
into Alex’s hospital room, while Sarah is holding Alex’s newborn, she remembers
the first time she held Allie’s baby. As the memory returns, for the first
time, Sarah feels a deep emotion of wanting a baby of her own.
The business continues
to flourish providing the team with a very nice income. Through many jobs and
assignments from Beckman, many people are touched by Carmichael Industries.
Missing and lost persons are found and rescued. Bad guys are identified,
tracked, and set up to be taken down. CIA field agents find Chuck and Sarah’s
support to be a large part of their successes in their missions. Their civilian
clients find their services to be very valuable in difficult and sensitive
situations. As a result of all this success, Sarah soon finds herself standing
in from of her white with red door dream house on a beach; a very, very nice
house on a beach. One more piece of Chuck and Sarah’s dreams coming true.
One special job for
Chuck and Sarah occurs on a quiet night when Chuck leaves the Castle to get
them some burgers and a malt. Sarah is alone in the Castle when suddenly the
monitor lights up with General Beckman on the screen. One of her agents is on a
mission to protect a foreign dignitary during a conference where he is a
speaker. The bad guy the agent is looking for does not appear anywhere in the
audience and Beckman suspects that another assassin has been assigned the job
of killing the dignitary. Beckman needs Chuck with his Intersect 3 capabilities
to search the audience for another bad guy and identify him to the CIA agent.
As Sarah calls up a
video monitor of the scene, she sees the dignitary beginning to walk onto the
stage. She also knows that Chuck is a least 20 minutes away from the Castle and
they have only minutes to identify the assassin before he kills the dignitary.
What Sarah also knows is that Beckman had brought Chuck some Intersect glasses
with an updated program and they were right there in the room with her. She
knows what she must do. She gets the glass and looks at General Beckman on the
monitor. Beckman reassures her that the updated Intersect 3.1 is
very safe and controllable with no adverse side effects and if she chooses, she
can use them. Putting them on, Sarah does see the new assassin in
the audience and she sees him beginning to draw a very nasty-looking, silenced
handgun. She relays this intel to the agent just as the dignitary is
approaching the podium. Then just as the assassin is raising his gun, he drops
dead with a bullet in his head.
As Chuck returns to the
Castle, he sees Sarah with this strange look on her face and he also sees the
glasses on the desk before Sarah. Chuck asks, “what have you done?” As Sarah is
explaining what has just occurred, she ends with, “now there are two of us with
the Intersect. We are double trouble for the bad guys now”.
About this time another
major natural disaster strikes the earth. A large comet passes very near to the
earth dragging its tail across a large area of the earth. Deadly contamination
is spread across the land especially affecting the waterways and oceans. There
is chaos in many parts of the world with many people dying, many missing
persons, and many ill and isolated. Beckman, several law enforcement agencies,
and some foreign governments contract with Carmichael Industries to help. Chuck
and Sarah put together, mobilize, and lead a large technical team to locate
people and set up rescue operations. Using all the electronic tools available
to them they identify, locate, and direct rescue and medical teams to those
missing, lost, and/or very sick needing immediate medical attention. A great
many people are saved due to the efforts of Chuck and Sarah’s team.
It is not long after
this that situations in the world grow very dark, both literally and
figuratively. Contamination in the air from natural disasters, and large oil
field fires have significantly dimmed the light from the sun. Unusual changes
in the sun itself only add to this problem. The problems are further compounded
by political unrest, especially in the Middle East. The man who negotiated the
cease-fire of the war against Israel has grown in power and influence. He is
trying to extend his influence and power over several nations in the Middle
East, Europe, and even Russia and the Far East. This is causing serious unrest
and trouble in these areas of the world. To compound these problems, very
serious internal problems have arisen in the West, especially in America.
About the time the
original Carmichael team dispersed, serious changes occurred in the government
agencies of America. Many people came into power that are doing great damage to
the democratic foundational principles of the nation. As they attempt to drive
the nation to become socialistic and part of a new one-world global government,
the resistance among the people of America grows. General unrest and
displeasure with the government are causing mass protests, riots, civil
disobedience, and a general atmosphere of chaos. All of this plus a generally
negative political position against Israel is keeping America essential out of the
situation in the Middle East.
In Israel, a very, very
bad situation has developed. Just as a new Temple is completed in Jerusalem,
the man who negotiated the cease-fire treaty stands in the Holy of Holies in
the new Tempe, demands that the Jewish sacrificial rituals cease, and declares
to the whole world that he is God. The whole Jewish world suddenly goes
berserk. Other nations are involved as the man now demands that all people
worship and obey him. He reveals that he and a coalition of ten other nations
under his leadership control much of the world's financial systems and that he
has put together a very large and dangerous army. Like a mad man drunk with
power, he begins to persecute and even kill those who do not obey and worship
him, especially Jews. The trouble and tribulation in Israel are so great that
it is called, “the time of Jacob’s trouble”.
Even as Carmichael
Industries is getting involved, Chuck and Sarah decided that they want to renew
their vows and get “married” again. As they share this with Morgan and Alex,
they also decided it is high time that they get married. Together both couples
begin planning the weddings. One important part of this is to get the whole
Carmichael team and all of their family members back together for the weddings.
This will be no easy feat in light of who some of the team and family members
are, where they are, and what they are doing.
In light of the turmoil
in the nation, and indeed in the world, and the problems and dangers of getting
all these people to gather in one place, they are going to need a very, very,
safe and secret place to hold the weddings. For this, they turn to their old
friend General Beckman.
In a call to Beckman,
Chuck and Sarah ask her if it would be possible for her to arrange for a very
safe, secure, and secret place where they could gather and hold the weddings.
In gratitude for all Carmichael Industries and Chuck and Sarah have done for
the nation, Beckman begins making calls.
Soon the General calls
Chuck and Sarah telling them that she has a place for them. At an appointed
time, they are all to go to a particular airport where Beckman will have some
of her people pick them up and take them to an undefined, secret facility for
the weddings. It will turn out to be a very, very nice facility.
With the resources at
their disposal, Chuck and Sarah are able to contact everybody and make
arrangements for them to get to the designated airport at the appointed time.
From there they are all escorted to a very special secret government facility
where a reunion of all reunions takes place. As family members are reunited and
old friends share stories of their adventures together, there are many tears
and much laughter as they prepare for two very special weddings. For all, it is
a very emotional and special time as Morgan and Alex exchange vows and Chuck
and Sarah renew the vows that they made to each other so many days ago.
The last scene of this
story is of Morgan and Alex, and Chuck and Sarah, decked out in all white
beautiful wedding apparel, standing before all of their friends and relatives
against a most beautiful scenic background. As they embrace and kiss, their
families and friends break out in great rejoicing.
The Parable Explained
The story is of Sarah
regaining her memory and identity piece by piece. Beginning with the
days of being a partner with Chuck, the story takes them through the days of
becoming boyfriend and girlfriend, then lovers, then a married couple.
The parable is about the
days after the rapture of the Church as presented in the Bible.
The good Intersect 3 is
the Holy Spirit.
The corrupted Intersect
in the power of Satan
The bad guys represent
servants of Satan whether they know it or not.
The dispersion of the
Carmichael team is the rapture.
Chuck represents the
144K Jewish believers working during the first 3 ½ years of the tribulation.
Sarah represents those
who become believers right after the rapture who do yet know who they are as
born again, Spirit-empowered children of God.
The new leader in the
world is the Antichrist.
Chuck, Sarah, the
old Carmichael team, their families, and friends represent all who become
Christians during the first 3 ½ years after the rapture and are taken to a
special, secret place to be protected and cared for during the last 3 ½ years
of the tribulation.
The reunion is symbolic
of all the saints being gathered together to return with Jesus at His second
coming.
The wedding is symbolic
of the wedding between Jesus and His church, all believers in Jesus down
through the ages. The bride of Christ now becomes His Queen to rule and reign
with Him for one thousand years on the earth.
