A month ago at the end of “Chuck Versus the First Fight,” we were left wondering whether Mama Bartowski was good, bad, or a bit of both. The poll results showed that most of you thought she was good (76%) over bad (24%). Tonight, we got the answer to that question. Well, did we? As frequent commenter, AC, left in the comments after that episode, “As for Chuck’s Mom: Bad, but not willing to sacrifice her son at the same time. Villains can love family members too.” That’s how I feel right now. Yes, I’m happy that she still loves her family enough to protect them. But, I’m not sure how her staying with Volkov can be considered on the “good” side of the spectrum. That said, I think there is still a lot about Frost that we don’t know. Could she really still be working for the better of society? Or, is she just an arms dealer now?
Now that Volkov knows about Chuck and Ellie, their mom may need to stay with Volkov to protect them. But, why did she stay with him all these years? That is still not clear to me. Did I miss something? Or, is that still an outstanding issue?
What do you think? We know that Chuck’s mom loves her family and will protect them, but is she working for the good guys or the bad guys?
