It has been a weeks since A.J. Bartowki's 1st birthday and since then some more milestones have been achieved one of them being able to walk. For the 1st year parents they were undoubtedly proud of their first born son but at the same time a sudden and scary realization came over them. That sudden and scary realization is he's not only mobile but upright as well. Once again, there are many other things to add on to the proverbial worry board in regards to keep A.J. safe as they as they possibly could knowing full well the both of them won't be able to always protect him from getting hurt.

As much as they would like to have a 24 hours watch on their little stinker, they'd have to settle for usual tag team shifts that they've become absolute pros now after a year of truly exhaustive hands on training. Yet, even though it was considerably exhaustive it was also an absolute learning experience as well in which they learned more about themselves than anything else and what they're capable of. Like any new parents, they've basically survived the first year of parenthood and even though they'll unknowingly face new challenges ahead that await them they're for the most part prepared for what is yet to come.

In the meantime, the happily married couple are enjoying a Friday night at Casa Bartowski in the family living room where a now 1 year old A.J. is walking in a stumbling manner back and forth towards his parents much to their delight. As this is happening, Sarah smiles and claps happily while encouraging her son who is a few inches away from trying to keep his balance while moving towards.

"You can do it baby. Good job." she said with absolute joy in her voice. It doesn't take long for A.J. to suddenly lunge forward taking several bounding baby steps into the awaiting arms of his proud and smiling mother. Mother and father celebrate as A.J. is being tightly and that the same time gently embraced by the former agent of the C.I.A.

Chuck claps and expresses proud laughter witnessing his son taking some momentous steps towards being able to fully walking by himself. "Awesome job son. We'll be chasing after you pretty soon." he said briefly pointing to his one year old boy.

"That's what I'm afraid of." responded Sarah with worried concern in her voice. The former nerd herd leader is momentarily silent as he reflects back on his infant son's accomplishment then expresses a bit of a chuckle causing the blonde beauty to quirk her right brow towards him. "What's so funny?"

In response, Chuck motions towards A.J. "I was thinking how A.J. was stumbling over to you. He looked like a mini stay puft marshmallow man."

Instantly Sarah rolls her eyes because she knows exactly what movie he's talking about. She's grown accustomed to her husband's pop culture reference because as a mom she gets up late at night watching movies during feeding times with A.J. or simply trying to get him back to sleep. "Ghostbusters."

"You got it babe." he proudly retorted with a grin. "Awesome. Anyways, when Gozer tells the guys to think of and choose a destroyer for New York Peter, Egon, and Winston immediately wipe their minds in order to not let whatever mentally pops in their head become the city's demise."

"Unfortunately…" chimed in Sarah playfully bouncing her baby boy on top of her legs. "…Ray makes the mistake of thinking of a childhood memory that meant so much to him."

Chuck nods. "Yeah. At Camp Wakanda, roasting marshmallows by the fire if I recall." He pauses for a moment thinking about that particular part of the movie. The youngest Bartowski sibling continues on. "It's considered to be one of the funniest scenes in the movie along with a memorable quote."

"Which one? There were so many babe?" questioned Sarah.

"Winston's to Ray about Gozer asking if any of the guys were a God."

Instantly Sarah nods acknowledging the particular quote in question. "Ray, if someone asks you…

It's at that point Chuck repeats the same quote along with his wife. "….if you're a God you say yes!" they both say in unison.

Afterwards expressing shared laughter, it's Chuck he speaks up. "You know your movies and quotes for that matter. Impressive. Most impressive."

"Star Wars…" Sarah responded pointing at her husband. "…and Darth Vader said it I think. I got that reference because you're a massive Star Wars nerd." she proudly proclaimed with a smile.

Chuck is momentary silent sitting there across from his wife. It's a silence that causes Sarah to a bit concerned but those concerns would most certainly be unwarranted when he suddenly speaks up. "You are so hot right now."

Once again Sarah rolls her eyes after hearing that from her husband. She picks up a half full plastic water bottle that's on the coffee table to her left with her left hand. "Cool off loverboy." she said tossing it over to him.

Chuck catches it expressing amused laughter in doing so. After reaching over to set it back on the coffee table, he continues on. "I'm just saying babe…" He pauses to briefly give his attention to A.J. making funny faces that make his son smile. "…you're getting to be a movie Jedi Master. It's not really a bad thing." he added shrugging his shoulders.

Sarah expresses a chuckle of her own. "I know. However, I'm not as big as you sweetie. You're the resident movie buff of the family." smirked the former C.I.A. agent. "I bow down to you." she added releasing her right hand waving up and down towards her nerdy better half.

"I'm actually a mere padawan in the movie department babe. Morgan…" Chuck readjusts himself in order to have his back against the black leather couch. "…now he's the resident movie Jedi Master. It's amazing how he's a wealth of endless knowledge when it comes to movies."

Mrs. Bartowski doesn't saying anything. Instead, she nods while continuing to bounce her son on top of her legs. In that moment, she takes the opportunity to focus on her husband's bearded best friend. "Speaking of Morgan…"

It's at that point Chuck arches his right brow and turns his head towards his wife. In his mind, it's usually never anything good when Morgan's name is brought up. To him. He's been stepping up with his responsibilities both professionally and personally, which is the complete opposite of what he used to be in the past during his time at Buy More. "What is it?" he asked with cautious concern in his voice.

"Word has it he's going to propose to Alex." she answered raising both eyebrows.

In response, Chuck smirks. "And where or better yet who did you get that piece of intel from Agent Walker?"

"I have my sources."

Chuck crosses his arms after hearing that. "Uh huh." Afterwards, he takes a moment to think about his hetero life partner and tilts his head from left to right. "Well, the word is…" he pauses briefly then continues on looking at Sarah. "….there is no word." Chuck replied shrugging his shoulders while shaking his head.

"Are you sure?" Sarah retorted furrowing her eyebrows.

"Sure I'm sure babe. If Morgan was going to tell me he's going to be propose to Alex you'd be the first to know."

Upon hearing that, Sarah scooches closer to her husband with A.J. in tow. "He hasn't said anything to you…" She leans forward staring directly in the eyes of her husband. "…maybe hinted at something."

For Chuck. the way Sarah is staring at him causing him to lean back a bit and experience for a sense of discomfort and not to mention fear. "Listen babe. This is all I know." He stated uncrossing his arms and putting both hands up in front of him. "When we had our guys night out a few months back all that he ever mentioned was he was planning something. He quickly changed the subject after that. I didn't press the matter further."

"That's all?"

"Yeah. That's pretty much all I know. I swear babe." Chuck notices Sarah intensifying the stare towards him. It leads Chuck to continue on. "It's a complete mystery that only he can reveal. When? Who knows." he added shrugging his shoulders.

Sarah is silent as she continues to intensely stare down her incredibly uncomfortable husband. A few moments later she leans back expressing a soft smile. "I believe you."

"Thank God. I thought you were going to go all Vick Mackey on me without the thick phonebook." Chuck expressed in absolute relief returning to his previous position. He notices a bewildered look on her face to where he explains the reference. "From the series The Shield. Vick Mackey played by Michael Chiklis…"

He inevitably stops while he's ahead knowing she probably doesn't know the guy or seen the series. For its a series that is not suitable for younger viewers and may be too violent and sexually explicit even for a once hardened former spy. In any case, a knock is heard at the door. This leads to Chuck and Sarah to momentarily look at each other wondering who it is at this time of night. It would be the C.E.O. of Whiz Kid Systems, Inc. to push himself up into a standing position and head towards the front door. While doing so, Sarah continues to sit there with her son and at the same time keeping her ears focused at the front entrance area of her home. It wouldn't before she hears Chuck opening the door and hearing her husband say the following name in the distance: Morgan.

It's not long till Sarah stands up and turns around to see Chuck's bearded best friend emerging into the Bartowski living room with Chuck following suit behind him. She expresses a bit of smile.

"What's up Sarah." he said with a quick nod.

"Morgan? What are you doing here…" She checks the clock reading 9:15 on the living room wall above the big screen tv. "…at this time of night?" she added with absolute curiosity.

"Yeah Morg. Anything wrong?" he said with concern in his voice. He then stands next to his wife.

After Morgan takes a moment to tickle the bottom of his Godson's feet, he looks up to respond to both their questions. "I'm going to propose to Alex."

It's at that point, Morgan's announcement causes Chuck and Sarah to stand there for moment looking directly at the bearded little man standing in front of them. From Morgan's point of view their lack of response is considerably awkward leading to rock back and forth a but to the seemingly uncomfortable silence. However, the silence would be subsequently broken by Chuck.

"Well there you go babe. Mystery solved. Happy?" he responded elbowing her with his left arm. Chuck's response cause Morgan to express a bit of confusion on his part as he witnesses Sarah slap his best friend's left arm whiling holding A.J. then turns her attention back to him with a smile.

"It's about time Morgan." stated Sarah sitting in a chair at the end of the dining room table. A.J. in her lap playfully hitting the edge of the aforementioned dining room table. As for Chuck, he emerges from kitchen walking behind then past Sarah with a bottle of water in hand. He inevitably hands it over to his childhood best friend who is sitting in the chair just to Sarah's right. While standing there, he takes and step back then behind Sarah to where he places both his hands on his wife's shoulders. Afterwards, the youngest Wexler sister continues on. "So when are you going to pop the question to Alex? Do you have a plan?"

"To be perfectly honest no. I'm freaking out about it." he said with worried concern in his voice. "I just don't want to blow it. I want it to be awesome."

"Hey Morg…" Chuck responded with calming reassurance. "…buddy relax. Don't freak out." he added shooting a smile towards his bearded best friend. "If you need any help. Just ask."

"Really? That's awesome guys."

"Sure Morgan." nodded Sarah. "We'll carve out a time this weekend or next week and think up some potentially creative ideas to make Alex's proposal a truly memorable one for her."

After Sarah says that, Morgan takes a big breath then expresses a smile of relief on his face. It's not long before something weighs on his mind. It's a look that Chuck instantly notices.

"What's on your mind dude?"

"Yeah. Do you happen to still have the proposal plan you drew up for Sarah?"

Upon hearing the words "proposal plan" from Morgan, she turns to look up and behind her at her nerdy husband. Her right brow arching with absolute curiosity. "What proposal plan?" she said expressing a faint smile on her lips.

It's at that point Chuck makes his way around in order to face his wife with their son in the former government agent's lap. "You see, like Morgan I wanted to pull off the perfect wedding proposal. At the beach."

"When?" Sarah wondered again.

"Some time before your late boss Langston Graham got kidnapped by Kirk Archer. That threw a little monkey ranch in the works." he answered shrugging his shoulders.

Morgan instantly chimes in. "The plan itself mainly involved a combination of things that are considered to be important to both of you." he nodded first to Sarah then to Chuck.

It's at that point, Chuck takes over continuing on where Morgan stops. "As I remember it, some of it was also just stuff dreamed up from when we were kids."

"Like what?" wondered Sarah looking up at her husband.

"Driving up in a 1985 DeLorean like in Back To The Future." Chuck answered. Upon saying it, he shakes his head at the absolute absurdity of it all. "What was I thinking?" he softly said shaking his head. His thoughts concerning the matter would be subsequently broken by the sound of Sarah's voice.

"And me?"

Chuck is about to answer when Morgan interjects. "You were supposed to ride in on a wild stallion then we'd ride off in a red Lamborghini taking off down the coast. It was a rough draft." he said titling his head back and forth towards his nerdy best friend.

"Incredibly rough Morg. It was revamped so many times since puberty." chuckled the former nerd herd leader. His attention on his best friend would inevitably avert towards his loving wife who is continues to hold their exuberant baby boy. "Fortunately…" he said with a soft smile. "…a proposal did happen at a beach. Only…" In that moment, Chuck once again makes his way around and then behind Sarah returning both his hands on top of his wife's shoulders. "…she got down on one knee and proposed to me." he added leaning down to kiss the top of Sarah's head.

In response, a smile is expressed on her face thinking back on that particular night. Afterwards, she tilts her head to the left caressing her left check on Chuck's left hand. She then takes the opportunity in that brief special moment of reflection to give a kiss to his left hand. In doing so, she turns back looking up and gives her response. "I wouldn't change a thing about that night." she softly expressed.

"Ditto babe." he retorted gazing into his wife beautiful blue eyes.

The share moment between husband and wife concerning the proposal would be interrupted by the sound of clearing throat. The sound would originate from the man sitting in front of them expressing an awkward smile and a bit of a wave added in as well. Suddenly a thought pops in his head causing him to speak up.

"Hey, wasn't there a dinner proposal plan in the works as well?"

In that moment, Chuck takes a second to think about it the after a while acknowledges that particular plan in question. "Oh yeah."

Instantly, Sarah's eyebrows raise up leading her to speak up. "You were going to propose to me at dinner?"

Once again Morgan is about to chime in when Chuck interjects. "I got this one buddy." he nodded with his bearded hetero life partner giving a nod back. "Well, it would be at a romantic Italian restaurant and I imagined it to be very elaborate. Horse drawn carriage."

"Caballeros." Morgan stated.

"The word you're looking for is Caballos. Also, I'm not sure but I think you said gentlemen."

The two begins to have discussion on the correct Spanish word for horse. It's a discussion that is quickly squashed by Sarah knowing how her husband and his best friend can deeply get into certain subject matter. "Boys…" she sternly stated without scaring A.J. "…focus."

Both men firmly nod their heads in response. This leads to Chuck continuing on. "Yeah. In a nutshell, no expense for the woman I love. Go all out for the proposal." he said with a loving grin towards his wife.

Unfortunately, the loving grin would quickly fall flat after Sarah gives her response. "Thank God that didn't happen."

A look of confused bewilderment is expressed on not only Chuck's face but Morgan's as well. The two men turn to look at each other and then towards Sarah who just revealed something that has left her husband and best friend considerably dumbfounded.

"Uh honey…" Chuck stammered trying to wrap his brain around of what Sarah just said. "…why…why are you thankful the dinner proposal didn't happen?"

"Inquiring minds want to know." Morgan chimed in with a nod leaning forward.

"I just had a bad history with proposals."

Chuck eyes suddenly bug out as if they're about to pop out of its sockets. In doing so, he breathes out one name. "Bryce."

After hearing the faint sound of Bryce's name, Sarah quickly interjects. "No..." she said shaking head. "…no. Not Bryce. It's was my mom and dad actually."

A look of relief is expressed in the body language of not only Chuck, but Morgan as well. Upon witnessing the all-out relief, she continues on. For Sarah, it's been a long time since she remembers the engagement story that her mother Emily shared with her involving her father Jeremiah. It's considered a sorely sensitive and utterly embarrassing subject but at the same would end up because something of a lesson learned in how to not propose to the person you love.

"According to my mom…" Sarah takes a moment to readjust her son's seating position on her lap then continues on. After kissing A.J. on top of his head, she continues on. "…my dad's first attempt at proposing didn't go as planned. It was considered a nightmare proposal."

"She said no?" inquired her husband?

"Not exactly. You see, my mother's family had a fancy looking restaurant in Breckinridge, Colorado. So my dad wanted to propose there." A crooked smile appears on her lips as she briefly thinks back on her mother telling her the story. "God, he wanted to go all out. The champagne, flowers, the band, and the balloons…" Sarah pauses taking a moment to shake her head. By this point, Chuck takes the opportunity to back up and then sit down on the top edge of the black leather chair as she continues on. "…it was pretty chaotic and so over the top. Anyways, in all the confusion somebody knocked over a candle and lit the rug on fire."

"Wow." breathed out Morgan.

The former Buy More green shirt shakes his head in absolute disbelief at the story being shared by his nerdy best friend's wife. As for Chuck, he's sitting there actually glad he didn't make the decision to go for a Italian restaurant proposal. He continues listening on to the story.

"The great thing was only minor burns were suffered. It's still a sore subject whenever family reunion time rolls around."

"I'm sure it is." responded Chuck with raised eyebrows.

"Sure, the first time around didn't go so well. It did nearly hamper any chance of wedding. However, the second attempt at a proposal was pretty special. Although, it would be a bad omen or sign to not go through with it, my mom would forgive my dad. My mom's family…" she stated shaking her head. "…would eventually forgive him after renovating the restaurant and so much more." she explained.

"It's awesome to know you're mom and dad are in a much happier place in their lives now." Chuck said standing up. His attention on his wife averts to his best friend Morgan. "Morg…" Upon saying his name, the man who had a massive crush on one Ellie Bartowski stands up as well. "…like I said not to worry buddy. We'll help you figure out the best proposal plan and no…" he said directly pointing at him. "…I will not ask a favor from the 501st Legion to have a Star Wars proposal."

A look of utter disappointment is expressed on Morgan's face after hearing that. Yet, he quickly shakes it off knowing that Sarah and Chuck's help with a truly special, as well as memorable proposal will happen. In any case, after saying goodnight Chuck is about to escort Morgan to the front door when he turns around to speak up.

"I forgot to mention one more thing."

"What is it?" inquired Chuck with utter curiosity. Sarah standing by his side with A.J. cradled comfortably in her arms.

"I want to go old school traditional before I propose to Alex."

"Okay?" responded Sarah. "What are you saying Morgan?" she wondered quirking her right brow.

"What I'm saying is…" He pauses taking a moment to take a big breath then continues on. "…I want to have Casey's blessing to marry his daughter first." Morgan announced causing stunned silence among Chuck and Sarah as they look at Morgan then to each other.

The following Saturday morning John Casey stands in his living room apartment facing his flat screen television. Why? The image of General Beckman is on screen as there is a discussion between the two of them that looks to be pretty serious evident by how serious both of their facial expressions are at the moment. The two are at the tail end of the conversation as Beckman continues speaking.

"Let me reiterate Colonel…" stated Beckman with concern in her voice. "…your safety may be in jeopardy knowing how dangerous your former teammates truly are. They escaped a maximum security prison and have gone underground." she added shaking her head.

A soft but clearly audible grunt is expressed by Casey after hearing that. "Nothing to worry about General. As for my safety..." he answered with utmost confidence. "…I'm a big boy. I'll be able to handle it if the situation does escalate. I know how they think."

Beckman is briefly silent on the screen letting Casey's words sink in. After a brief moment, she speaks up. "Should Chuck, Sarah, and Mr. Riley at least be aware of what's going on? Families as well?"

"Negative." Casey replied. "I am 100% certain they'll be safe and besides…" Casey's eyebrows intently furrow with seriousness. "…the only time they would see me again would be at my funeral. As you can see I'm still kickin." smirked the N.S.A. agent. "This is deemed simply on a need to know basis. It's between you and me. They don't need to know."

A hint of a smile appears on Beckman's face as she gives her response. "I have my concerns about this but I trust you John. Just to be on the safe side I'll have my people continue to monitor the situation. If I hear any chatter, I'll contact you."

"Affirmative."

The flat screen in Casey's apartment cuts to black leaving the proud marine standing there reflecting on the news that General Beckman informed of. In his mind, he knows what his former teammates are capable of and at the same time knows how to take each one of them down in case he has to. As much as he assured Beckman that she doesn't need to be concerned about his safety, it doesn't hurt to be on heightened alert. Much more that unusual he thinks to himself. His thoughts concerning the matter that's been brought his attention is suddenly broken by the sound of a knock on his door. It's not long before he reaches his door and opens it.

Casey stands there briefly then speaks up. "What do you want?" he growled.

"Hey Casey…" Morgan nervously stammered. "…can I come in? I need to talk to you man to man." he requested.

The burly government agents is silent for a moment. His steely, cold gaze directed at Morgan then averts his attention to who is behind him. "If it's man to man, then why'd you bring Walker here? She's more man than you and Bartowski combined" he inquired.

"Funny big guy." he retorted shaking his head in response to Casey's sarcastic comment. "Aren't you going to say hi to your Godson?"

Chuck lifts up A.J. a bit showing his son who smiles and chuckles a bit seeing his burly Godfather. A hint of smirk is given off but not noticeable for his former teammates and his daughter's moron boyfriend to notice. Casey's attention would subsequently be averted to his former partner as she speaks up.

"We're here as back up. Just in case." It's at that point, Sarah steps forward past Morgan and forcefully pushes Casey aside to get into his apartment. "We're coming in whether you like it or not."

Afterwards, Chuck follows suit but not before pushing forward his best friend who clearly a mixture of nervous and afraid. As for Casey, he just rolls his eyes as he close the door to his apartment. It's not long before all 4 individuals are standing in the living room with Casey speaking up first.

"Okay…" his focus solely on Morgan. "…talk."

"Well uh…." he stammered on nervously. He clears his throat several times then continues on. "…I'm here…" Morgan takes a moment to look to either side of him. Both Sarah and Casey nod is assurance to keep going because they are here to support him and quite possibly save him from being killed or strangled to death at the hands of a cold school killer. "…to ask…"

Instantly, Casey interjects. "You want my blessing to marry Alex."

A surprised look is expressed on Morgan's face. After looking at Chuck and Sarah on either side of him he gives his response. "How did you know?"

"It's my job to know moron, especially when it involves my daughter…" he emphatically stated. "The answer is no." firmly stated the protective father.

Morgan is speechless causing him to back and sit down on the nearest available furniture he can find. Unfortunately, the one he finds is Casey's Barcalounger. He's about to say something when Chuck speaks up.

"Come on big guy. Morgan makes Alex happy…" Chuck peers down at seemingly distraught best friend who looks like his whole world has crumbled around him. "…and you want your daughter to be happy don't you?" he asked in hopes of swaying his mind.

"I do…" he softly grunted. "…more than anything. However, the thought of Grimes as my future son-in-law sends a chill down my spine." he added with a cringe worthy expression on his face.

"Give him a chance partner."

His attention from Chuck is averted to Sarah who is locking eyes with him while standing across from her. "Listen partner…" she said stepping forward. "…your daughter is headstrong and stubborn just like her father. Trust me I know." said with a ribbing smile towards him. "Don't be the cause of her unhappiness because you don't want her marrying a man who you believe isn't worthy of her." Sarah briefly pauses taking a moment to place her hand on Morgan's left shoulder then continues on. "This is the same man who jumped in front of Alex risking his own life to save her from getting shot by Agent Smith at the warehouse remember."

"I can vouch for Morgan on how he's becoming a more responsible person…" insisted Chuck. "…both personally and professionally." he added reaching down patting his bearded best friend on his right shoulder. He continues to carefully hold on to his son with his other arm while doing so. "He's changed for the better Casey because of Alex and you know that." he firmly stated bouncing his son up and down.

In response, Morgan looks up and gives him a halfhearted smile knowing he's looking out for him. He's thankful for that from the bottom of his heart because to him he's come too far and been through so much to be at this point at his life with the woman he loves. His thoughts concerning the matter at hand are broken by the sound of Sarah's voice.

"What if he proves it to you?

Upon hearing that, Morgan quickly stands straight up with renewed hope in his eyes. "Yeah, I'll prove it to you. I don't know how…" he quickly spitted out. "…but I will."

A pleading puppy dog look is expressed in Morgan's eyes directed towards Casey. Speaking of Casey, he's continues to stand there in a very menacing way as if he's contemplating what Sarah suggested to him. The silence is palpable and sheer torture for not only Morgan, but for Chuck and Sarah as well who are also waiting for his answer. They wouldn't wait for long as the father of Alex McHugh speaks up.

"You want to prove it to me Grimes?" he softly growled.

"Yes…" he anxiously answered nearly coming out of shoes. "…I promise I won't let you down."

Casey takes a deep breath then continues on. "I'll hold you to that promise then. I'll give you my blessing…" A look of sheer joy and excite is witnessed by the N.S.A Agent on Morgan's face along with Chuck and Sarah's. Unfortunately, the look of joy and excitement would so fade. "…on one condition."

"I'll do it. No matter what it is." Morgan stammered out.

"Morg…" Chuck said stepping forward to look at him. "…are you sure about this? You don't have any idea what Casey has planned." he added expressing concern in his voice.

"I'm sure dude. I love Alex with all my heart…" he said averting his attention from Chuck to Casey. He looks his future father-in-law in the eyes and as much as he's scared to death of him right now, he far more scared at the thought of not sharing a life with Alex. "…and I'd go through hell for her."

"Then we're with you Morgan…" Sarah chimed in. Morgan directs her attention over to his best friend's wife who offers a smile of encouragement towards him. "…every step of the way." she added with a firm nod.

The support he's got from his hetero life partner and his wife mean so much to Morgan. He truly appreciates them having his back knowing how much of an intimidating figure one Colonel John Casey is, especially when it involves his daughter. His attention on Chuck and Sarah would be suddenly averted by the sound of Casey's gravelly voice.

"Are we done with the lady feelings?" All 3 individuals standing in front of Casey directing their attention to him. They wait as the proud marine continues on not knowing what's in store next, especially for Morgan. "If so, then listen up Grimes because here's my proposal."
