Okay, I've been having some THOUGHTS
Okay, does anyone know that scene in Psych where Shawn, Gus, and Henry have to buy a car for a case and there's this joke about Shawn not knowing how to haggle and spending all their money on the car?
Okay, so my question is Does Shawn know how to haggle? Either he genuinely doesn't know how to haggle OR he's playing dumb, as we all know he loves to do, and is wasting their money because it's funny to him.
Shawn is very smart but he plays dumb so well that even Gus and Henry often forget he's a genius
So I was thinking this through, rolling it over in my head and, Shawn travelled the world with nothing but the clothes on his back! OF COURSE he knows how to haggle, so why didn't he?
From where I see it, there's 2 options,
1. He didn't realize that cars are one of those things you have to haggle on
But then someone pointed out to me on discord, what about his motorcycle?
NO WAY he payed full price for that thing! And if he haggled for IT then why wouldn't he know to haggle foe a car despite never buying one?
So, this leads to option 2
2. Shawn KNEW he was supposed to haggle but doesn't care about money and likes pretending to be stupid so he wasted their money on purpose for the bit
Gus will wake up in a cold sweat in 10 years with the realization that Shawn did it on purpose and call him at 2am to yell at him about it.
But, what about secret option number 3?
That's right! There's a secret 3rd option:
3. Shawn relies on his OP charisma stat to get things for free when traveling the world, he manipulated and charmed his way into traveling the world, he's never had to actually haggle because his go to is charisma
What I'm getting at is Shawn went "Haha, I'm not doing that in front of my dad, I will pay full price."
Thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

Who ya gonna call? (The DID/trans ep)
Ill be honest i was nervous to rewatch this one but turns out it held up better than i thought. I mean, the worst of it is that the DID person is the murderer but that was such a common tv thing back then for procedurals. Every one had to have a DID ep, even though, as Psych points out, its so exceedingly rare. I get it, its a fun concept, but yeah, don’t make them the violent ones when 9 times out of 10 they’re the victims of violent crimes. I will say though, Psych made sure to include they were getting the help they needed and they really didn’t have to.
But what a cool way to show it though, having the other personalities act like ghosts. It feels very poetic. And to have one personality trans is such an interesting layer on top of it. It really can’t get more complicated than that.
This episode also tells us so much about Lassiter! Hes trying desperately to win back his not-yet-ex wife its kind of heartbreaking. We’re starting Psych right at the beginning of Lassiters downfall. He gets separated, has an “affair” with his partner who gets reassigned because ppl found out thanks to Shawn, and i believe its later implied he lost the promotion to captain because of that affair. And then Shawn comes along and he’s solving his cases. I have to wonder though, since we see in this ep how distracted he can be when he has personal issues, if Lassiter isn’t necessarily a bad detective in the beginning but just going through some shit and missing things. It kind of makes me understand why he’s so hostile to Shawn in the beginning. Not that thats any excuse. Just because you’re having a bad day doesn’t mean you get to shit on other ppl’s. And it was fun to see lassiters and Juliets miscommunication. It was nice to see them easing into their partnership, and allowing friction, particularly:

What was henry going to do if that kid just started wailing on shawn??? Honestly, probably would have tried to teach shawn how to hit back and would’ve got him pummeled.
Its kind of funny that in this ep Shawns all this guy believes in ghosts, hes crazy, when in later eps he’s so excited about aliens and bigfoot haha. I can only conclude Shawn doesn’t really believe in anything supernatural but definitely wants to. I think it would have been better if Shawn didn’t think the guy was crazy right off the bat but maybe had a stalker, or intruder. (P.s were the writers implying Shawn was right from the beginning and they were crazy, or was that just poor wording??)
Sidenote: Shawn just casually spoke german and seemingly understood her response. He probably simply knew enough to impress her, but still. He does this a few times i think in the series where he lets it slip how much he actually knows.

I love it in Psych episodes when Shawn realises Gus' life is in danger. He gets real serious and real violent and I love it.
There's Something About Mira when Shawn keeps demanding a gun.
Gus Walks Into a Bank when Shawn hurls himself through police officers with 0 plan just to get to him.
Yang 3 in 2D when Shawn says "You kill him, I kill you, you got it?"
I'm sure there are moments I missed as well. A fair bit of the show does play Shawn taking advantage of Gus for laughs (Gus pays all his bills) but the show never goes too far imo. And part of the beautiful mosaic of their best-friendship is these kinds of moments.

Remember when Gus was trying to convince Shawn his dad loved him and Shawn said "How do you know?" and Gus was like "He never said it?" and Shawn seriously said "We're guys, Gus." because I do.

Forget Me Not is such a tender episode. Kurtwood Smith did a phenomenal job portraying how heartbreaking Alzheimers is. And Shawn is so soft hearted. I get part of the reason he’s helping him is because the captain stuck up for him with his father. But you can tell Shawn genuinely cares for him.
Santa Barbara is giving off small town vibes haha this is the second classmate they’ve run into already and i know theres at least 3 more coming.
Im going to be honest, i don’t think Trish Connors was written well. She’s very two dimensional and mostly serves the b plot. Ashley Williams was good though. She has a wholesome quality about her.
This crime is so sad. This guy went looking for his birth parents and ended up murdered. And then his bio-dad finds out it was his own wife who murdered him. How devastating.
I looked it up and felis concolor actually is latin for mountain lion. I thought he made it up haha
You know you’re in season one when you see this street ;)

What was this scene?!?!?! It feels problematic but as I’m neither black, African, or speak Xhosa its not my place to say. Im just gonna say its a fun shawn and gus scene and leave it at that 😬
