Buy More is a fictional big-box electronics retail chain in NBC's action-comedy series ''Chuck''. The Buy More is a parody of similar chains, particularly Best Buy. The notable employees of the Buy More fit into three categories: management, Nerd Herd (technical support), and sales associates (who are called "Green Shirts" on account of their uniforms). Current and recent notable employees are listed by their last held position. ==Series== The series' eponymous character Chuck Bartowski, and most of the principal characters, are employed at the Burbank branch of the Buy More for most of the entire series. The store is located at 9000 Burbank Boulevard.〔"Chuck Versus the Sensei"〕 Every episode touches on the store at some point, whether for a substantial comedic side plot or as the scene of some of the series' spy action, particularly in the first two seasons. The Burbank Buy More is involved in a fierce rivalry with the nearby Beverly Hills location, often involving vicious pranks between the stores, as highlighted in "Chuck Versus the Predator". Neighboring "big box" stores in the shopping center are Large Mart〔"Chuck Versus the Intersect"〕 and Underpants Etc.〔Exterior establishing shots throughout season 4〕 The employees of Buy More and Large Mart have a fragile truce concerning pranks and sabotage of each other's store.〔"Chuck Versus the Muuurder"〕 Restaurants across the parking lot include Wienerlicious, a fast-food retailer specializing in hot dogs and sausages, in season 1;〔 Orange Orange, a frozen yogurt store, in seasons 2 and 3;〔"Chuck Versus the Seduction"〕 and a Bennigan's.〔 Sarah Walker maintains a cover as an employee of the Wienerlicious and, subsequently, the Orange Orange. The Orange Orange – like the Buy More – is a façade for, and secret entrance to, the underground Castle base. Fulcrum, the Ring, and Volkoff Industries have identified the store as a place of interest in connection to their search for The Intersect and Operation Bartowski. Despite this, the federal government continued to operate the store as a nominal cover. "Chuck Versus the Nemesis" reveals that a total evacuation of the store can be triggered by the safe word "Pineapple". Although the store's employees make light of the code word, it is twice used to safely remove the staff and patrons who would otherwise be endangered by the espionage activities going on around them. The store was destroyed in "Chuck Versus the Ring: Part II" after Daniel Shaw set explosive charges to lure Chuck into a final confrontation and Morgan inadvertently triggered the detonator. By the end of the episode, Jeff and Lester are wanted for questioning in connection to the blast. Prior to Season 4, it was rebuilt by the US Government to be used as a CIA substation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buy More」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
