It seems he remembers the intellectual aspects of the cases and the bad people, why he doesn't her remember how to do his action sequences when he flashes and says guys I know Kung Fu, but later doesn't know how until he flashes again?
shareIt is a writing ploy obviously, because even after he looses the intersect in later seasons, he is able to perform Kung fu quite well. So it clearly left some imprint in him even though the interect was "locked" at the time.
I have a larger issue with the fact that just anyone can benefit from the intersect. Based on the lecture the Stanford professor gave, and the fact that Chuck scored so high in remembering and deciphering subliminal photographs, it seems like it is not something just anyone can load into their brain and actually use like, for instance, Chuck would be able to do.
So when Morgan suddenly loaded the intersect, why was he able to suddenly flash? He had no training on reading subliminal messaged photos before and he wasn't always the brightest bulb, so why was he able to make use of it? Same with just any agent. It seemed even Bryce knew that he would not have had near the success with it that Chuck had when he started questioning Chuck..."is it always that fast?", etc. It seems like he knew that not everyone would recall the content nor know what to do with it that quickly.
So the whole storyline with Morgan and even Sarah getting the intersect loaded and having it flash is to be disingenuous. Sarah was bright and smart on her own. I am not even sure why she loaded it in the first place since she already knew Kung fu quite well before loading it. Again, I say it was all a plot ploy.
I think the show was great and all, but it was best when it was Chuck who was unique with this ability to truly have the gift to understand, decipher and unpack the layered photos and be able to flash and make use of the content. I wish they had just stuck to it always being him (without the memory loss in the 3.0 version that Morgan and Sarah loaded).
They "explained" that it was a repaired Intersect, the one Ellie fixed after she sort of became the keeper of her father's work.
But I do agree Morgan getting the Intersect was not a good idea, then Sarah getting it was even worse. Unfortunately, they were victims of their annual uncertainty of return. Hell, they didn't know they'd have a season 3 of the show until just before Comic-Con. "Guys, I know kung-fu" was supposed to be the last line of the series.
