Airdate: 2009-Feb-02

Episode summary:

When Chuck foils a plan to kill international rock star Tyler Martin (Dominic Monaghan), the agents kidnap the musician to find out who wants him dead. Later, Tyler convinces Chuck to go out on the town, which only leads to a night of trouble. Meanwhile, Morgan wins a pair of backstage passes to Tyler's show and holds a contest among his fellow employees, including Big Mike's old football friend Jimmy (Jerome Bettis), to see who gets to be his lucky plus one. The episode is full of references to the 1994 film The Shawshank Redemption. This episode also references The Thomas Crown Affair and Arrested Development with the line "No Touching!" and liberal use of Europe's song "The Final Countdown". The IG-88 hand grenade in the episode is also an obscure reference to a sentient droid bounty hunter from the Star Wars extended universe.
