Casting Couch Consequences

Disclaimer: After having watched 'Chuck Vs. The Beefcake' I got to thinking later about what if there had been some actual consequences from Jeff and Lester's casting couch scheme?

Summary: Jeff and Lester's scheme causes some big problems for Chuck.

"Chuck, I'm gonna get straight to the point with you." Began Big Mike once he and his best employee were in his office.

"Corporate's already heard of what happened with the whole casting couch nonsense and with the lawsuit bearing down on our asses, I've been told I have to let you go." The big man told Chuck unhappily.

Chuck himself just stared at his boss in utter shock. "What!? You, you can't be serious! I had nothing to do with that! You know I would never!"

Big Mike just looked at him with sadness on his face. "I know that, son, but until those two dumbasses come clean, I have no choice."

I bet Casey would love to make them talk. God knows he can barely stand those two.

But before he could say anything to Big Mike, an interruption occurred. "I was told we could find Chuck Bartowski back here with you?"

The two quickly learned that the question came from a police officer and he wasn't alone as he had a partner with him. Aww Hell, this is NOT good! Big Mike thought to himself in worry.

I think I hate those two now.

"I… I'm Chuck Bartowski." The good Nerd told the two Police Officers hesitantly.

What quickly followed was his arrest and being read his Miranda Rights and being escorted out of the Buy More. Chuck kept his head down, refusing to look at anyone while hearing all manner of protest about the whole thing.

A Short Time Later In Castle

"I'm sorry, could you repeat that!?" General Beckman asked in an incredulous manner.

"Bartowski's been arrested thanks to Patel and Barnes' latest harebrained scheme that they blamed him entirely on, Ma'am. Shortly before that, Bartowski was unfortunately fired by Big Mike as he had no choice in the matter."

He was gonna kill those two idiots, damnit! That is, if Sarah didn't get her hands on them first given how pissed off she was looking. "This is not good as this could potentially endanger everything! I will arrange for a lawyer for Mr. Bartowski while you two get those damned fools to come forward."

Hell, Beckman was of half a mind to throw those two idiots in a dark hole somewhere so they'd never be able to see the light of day again. "It'll be my absolute pleasure, General." Promised Sarah darkly.

When I'm done with them, they'll never EVER think about coming up with any kind of idea ever again.

Author's Notes: I probably could post this as its own thing and go from there but given I've already got two other 'Chuck' fics going, I figure I'd just throw it in here for the time being.
