Roan Montgomery walks through a Moroccan bar talking on his phone to someone he refers to as "my sweet." Seeing a beautiful brunette at the bar, he decides to chat her up. He explains that he's in Morocco to find a master counterfeiter. She says, "So you're a spy. That's very exciting... Roan Montgomery." Suddenly two more nearly identical brunettes appear. One says, "Naughty, naughty," as she sticks him with a tranquilizer. As he passes out with three beautiful women hovering over him, he says, "What a way to go," and they laugh. Fade to black.

The entire gang is ogling Ellie's new baby. When baby Clara starts to cry, Casey says "I'm outta here," and runs for the kitchen, where Morgan asks Casey, for Alex's sake, to finally tell Alex's mom that he's alive. At first he refuses, but then says he'll think about it. Back in the living room, the family confronts Chuck and Sarah about the details around their wedding. Watching the family start to argue with one another, Chuck, Sarah and Casey start to freak out and decide they need a mission quick.

Chuck, Sarah and Casey call Beckman and catch her on the monitor, drinking alone. She pulls herself together as Casey apologizes for disturbing her, then requests a mission. She says there is something, but it would be off the books with no support. Beckman, uncharacteristically agitated, says they would need to rescue Agent Roan Montgomery, being held by an all-woman army in Morocco. They accept the mission and sign off. Sarah and Casey tell Chuck that Beckman was acting like a "hot mess" because of her long romantic history with Montgomery.

Roan is tied to a chair in a dank cell. Fatima Tazzi, surrounded by her women soldiers, asks him if he ever thought he would die from picking up a girl in a bar. He explains that in fact, that was exactly how he thought he would go. He also tells her that contrary to what she thinks, he's right where he wants to be. He wants to run her distribution. In his face, she asks why she'd do business with a CIA pig. He tells her, "because rolling around in the mud can be so much fun." She smiles seductively.

While they pack for the mission, Sarah explains to Chuck that his family is going to be driving both of them crazy until the wedding. She proposes that the two of them find a romantic getaway and elope instead. Chuck is struck dumb. He consults with Morgan. Morgan's dead set against the elopement because he wants to be best man. Chuck really wants his newly reformed family to be at the wedding. Morgan tells Chuck to start by saying "no" to Sarah over something insignificant, then work his way up to this big "no." Chuck agrees.

As Casey, Chuck and Sarah break into Fatima's fortress, Chuck tries â€" and fails â€" to say "no" to a number of things Sarah offers him. Once inside, they find a group of belly dancers entertaining a crowd. Sarah suggests to Chuck that they could elope in Morocco. He says nothing. They duck into a tent and change. When they emerge, Chuck flashes on a man in the crowd who turns out to be a terrorist-financing oil tycoon. Chuck tells the other two, but Casey insists they focus on rescuing Montgomery.

They find Roan blindfolded and tied to a bed. Hearing the door he says, "Come to me, my little minx." They take off his blindfold. Shocked, he asks what they're doing there, explaining that he's on a mission and just about to blow Fatima's counterfeit ring. Wondering how they found him, he suddenly realizes Beckman put a tracer in his watch, her birthday present to him. He hears Fatima coming and tells them all to hide. They do, just in time, and get an earful of Fatima and Montgomery's mutual seduction.

Hidden behind a tapestry, Chuck resists a sneeze. Sarah wants to capture Fatima, but Chuck says, "No... woman!" Sarah looks at him, appalled. He sneezes and the tapestry falls. Interrupted in her love play with Roan, Fatima calls her guards and has Sarah, Chuck and Roan locked up. In the cell, Roan asks what happened to the carefree, youthful spies they once were. Defensive, Chuck tells him they're very much in love, and getting married, just as he and Sarah begin to squabble. Chuck tells her he wants a real wedding, and his answer to eloping is "no." Sarah asks, "What about what I want?" Roan smiles.

Casey, who was hiding under the bed, tells Chuck that to rescue them, he'll seduce the female soldier guarding their door. The thought of Casey seducing anyone causes Roan and Sarah to beg him to please use guns and explosives. Still, Casey succeeds with the seduction until he misspeaks by telling her he can see "why they didn't assign one of those skinny ones down here." With that, she aims to kill. Casey hits her with a tranquilizer and blows his way into the cell. After the rescue, Roan tries to walk away, but Casey tranqs him as well.

Back at Castle, after a tense encounter, Beckman assigns Roan to a new mission: working at Buy More. Later, Chuck finds Roan in his green polyester Buy More shirt and asks what's going on between him and Beckman. Roan explains that after a passionate kiss at the fall of the Berlin Wall, he promised Beckman that if they were still spies in 20 years, they would finally settle down together. The night he was in Morocco was the night he was supposed to be with her.

Now aware that Alex doesn't want Casey to tell her mom he's alive, Morgan tracks down Casey, who's hiding in a wall in Fatima's fortress, and tells him not to talk to Alex's mom after all. Annoyed at being tracked down on a mission but relieved at the news, Casey agrees. Chuck, coached by Roan, suits up to bring Sarah on a date to sell her on having a wedding. He's met by a very sexy belly-dancing Sarah, intent on seducing him into an elopement. They argue. At that moment, Beckman calls them into Castle.

Beckman, Chuck and Sarah watch through Casey's spy cam as Fatima meets with her client, the oil tycoon. He tells Fatima it's too much counterfeit money, and that their fortunes depend on a strong dollar. Fatima says her fortunes do not, thanks him for the gold, then has her soldiers blow the client and his men away. In the gunfire, part of the wall Casey's hidden behind falls and traps him. Beckman tells Chuck and Sarah to go and save him, and to bring Roan back in to seduce Fatima again. They protest, saying Fatima will kill Roan. Irate, Beckman insists.

Roan attempts to seduce Fatima again in her room, voluntarily handing her his gun. She succumbs, and he convinces her to talk to him about her plan. She explains that when she was a child, an American conglomerate destroyed her village through strip mining. In revenge, she's going to bring down the entire U.S. economy by flooding the market with fake dollars. Roan asks her the name of the village: "Setouan, wasn't it?" She confirms it, and Beckman immediately finds the village and locates the mint.

As Chuck and Sarah search for Casey, Chuck tells Sarah that he finally realizes her reason for resisting a traditional wedding is her family. She admits she shouldn't have made him figure that out by himself. Listening through the wall with growing irritation, Casey whispers for them to stop talking and free him. As they start cutting into the wall, they're stopped by Fatima's soldiers, who call Fatima. She tells the soldiers to kill Chuck and Sarah, but as they're about to shoot, Casey shoots the soldiers down through a hole in the wall.

Realizing she's been deceived, Fatima prepares to shoot Roan. Just then, he gets a call from Beckman. Fatima grabs the phone and demands to know who's calling. Beckman identifies herself, then tells Fatima she'd be happy if Fatima killed Roan. Fatima laughs and hands the phone back. Roan apologizes to Beckman again. She thanks him, tells him to duck, then fires a bazooka from where she's hiding in the building next door. The explosion knocks out Fatima. Chuck runs in to rescue Roan, who dusts himself off saying, "I still got it."

Roan and Beckman are on a date at the Moroccan bar from the opening scene. Beckman understands Roan can't settle down, but she still has high hopes for Morocco that night. They drink to that. Back at home, Casey watches from a distance as Morgan, Alex, Alex's mom, and her new love emerge from the restaurant where they've been dining. Casey whispers, "Good for you Kath," then drives away.

Ellie approaches her mom, telling her how much she's loved having her help with the new baby. But if her mom still needs to be a spy, she understands. Elsewhere, Chuck and Sarah are in bed, talking. Sarah explains that eloping was a way to avoid dealing with her family. Chuck says as super spies handling global danger every day, certainly they can handle her family. As the future Mr. Sarah Walker, he asks if he can't get to know her better. Looking concerned, she says nothing.
