"Chuck Versus the Angel de la Muerte" is the third episode of the third season of Chuck. It aired on January 11, 2010 as part of the season's three-part premier, following "Chuck Versus the Pink Slip" and "Chuck Versus the Three Words" on January 10.Devon Woodcomb gets a little more than he bargained for when he gets drawn into Chuck's latest assignment: protecting the leader of the Latin American nation of Costa Gravas.
The episode begins with a flashback to UCLA medical school in 2000. As the professor calls roll, Devon and Ellie are absent from their first day of class, and making out in a closet having just met for the first time. In the present, they are busy unpacking from their move into their new apartment. As they pause to remember their wedding album, Devon promises Ellie a romantic evening but are soon distracted by the sound of a helicopter flying past, which Ellie remarks that there's been quite a few recently although Devon claims not to have noticed. He slips out and meets Chuck as he arrives home from a mission and reminds him to come over and help Devon and Ellie set up the TV at their new apartment. Chuck gets things going without trouble, but while Ellie is getting her wedding DVD, he flashes on the news report that Premier Alejandro Goya, the dictator of Costa Gravas, has collapsed from a heart attack. Chuck is called away to Castle and Devon is paged to the ER, leaving Ellie alone.
At Castle, Beckman briefs Chuck, Sarah and Casey on their assignment. They are to safeguard Goya, who is undergoing treatment at Westside Medical Center. Casey objects to the order, as Beckman had personally ordered him to assassinate Goya three times, which Casey had failed to complete, however Goya has come to the US to announce he is opening his country up to free democratic elections and Beckman is adamant he survive. At the hospital, Devon arrives in the ER to find that his patient is the Premier. Both Chuck (by Beckman) and Devon (by Goya's chief bodyguard) are told that if anything happens to Goya they will be held responsible. Devon is successful and in a press conference announces the Premier's chances of returning to work are "muy awesome."
