are actually talking to Sarah and Casey, they flee the store. They are then maced by Emmett, who is then incapacitated by Casey. Big Mike and Morgan arrive, and Jeff and Lester lie about overhearing the break-in. Emmett thinks that an entire crew has attacked him, leading everyone to suspect the Beverly Hills branch. They enter the store to retaliate, and Emmett accidentally causes a chain reaction of shelves tipping over. As they celebrate their victory the next day, the Beverly Hills group enters and accuses them. Big Mike convinces them that involving the police is not "the Buy More way" and the group exits. Mike thanks Morgan and informs him of rumors of a store closing, thus reassuring his de facto stepson that he will not let that happen. Production Flashes Chuck flashes on Vincent at the Buy More Chuck flashes on the symbol that Orion puts on his computer screen Cultural references There are a number of allusions to The Matrix in this episode. Orion's communication with Chuck via computer screens is similar to when Morpheus first contacts Neo in his bedroom, such as when Chuck's search of the Internet is interrupted by Orion. There are some musical clues, such as when Vincent is about to shoot Chuck, and audio clues, as when Chuck opens the laptop sent to him by Orion, that are very similar to the music and sounds used in The Matrix. Chuck's phone conversation with Orion and his plan to escape the agents guarding the area is reminiscent of Neo's conversation with Morpheus at his work. The comic book Chuck appears to read at the end of this episode to hide his Intersect research is titled "Ex Machina" - which is Latin for "out of the machine". Also, when Big Mike confronts the Beverly Hills Buy More staff after they had broken into the Beverly Hills store, he mimics Sean Connery's speech in the Untouchables. Emmett compares himself to various gunslingers portrayed in film, including Shane, Matt Dillon and Clint Eastwood. Orion saying "this disc will self-destruct in five seconds" alludes to the Mission: Impossible franchise, especially the original television series. When Emmet misses a cardboard cutout of Barclay in the Beverly Hills Buy More he says, "all right, one more time...with feeling," before swinging again. It's a line spoken by Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon. Critical response "Chuck Versus the Predator" received
