Whoa. Chuck! How many HSQs and deus ex out-my-ass moments can one episode have?
Oh, I see. ALL of them.
Ha, I know! So is his mom going to be played by Lena Olin?
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I liked how the mom, who it turns out has been a demon hunter spy all along is named Mary.

And the source of the intersect will be a giant, glowy red ball?

I think Lena Olin would be excellent. (Over at TWOp somebody suggested Lynda Carter - also an excellent choice.)

I'd like Lynda Carter better, mostly because Lena Olin has a lot more gravity than the show usually calls for. I could see LC married to Scott Bakula, whereas, LO? Much darker than I'd be comfortable with.
Then again, I was pretty traumatized by Romeo is Bleeding, so my mileage may vary.

I was a little surprised that someone as paranoid as Papa Bartowski wouldn't have had a bullet-proof vest or something. Granted a head shot or the right kind of bullets would have made short work of that, but I would have thought he'd have at least a little protection.
I'm still holding out hope that somehow he is not really dead.

My first thought for mommy was Kate Jackson.

Even better...though I've seen some distracting cosmetic surgery photos of her recently.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm still holding out hope that somehow he is not really dead.
Well, there was no indication that they went back for the body, or had a funeral, so I bet the writers are at least holding the possibility open. I can't imagine why he'd fake his death right at that point, but someone could have brought him to a secret hospital and... now they're keeping his brain in a jar!

He had a trick bullet proof vest with blood in it.

Well, in the previouslies, they showed Shaw gut shot 5 times, blood spurting and falling off a building. HE's still alive, so I'm voting for Papa Bartowski to be alive too. (stamping wee foot)
Mom will have been doing some kind of surveillance, or summat, scooped him up after the baddies amscrayed and the two of them will work together to find and rescue Chuck.
You heard it here first. (stamping wee foot again)
