So, to be honest, spelling bee is an ep that had to grow on me. It just always seemed too outlandish of a crime i think, idk. But the ep does show us more about shawns dysfunctional relationship with his father and Gus’s motivation to participate in Psych. Not to mention Juliet.

Gus is highly intelligent but in a way that feels he never utilized it properly. He has the mental fortitude to become a doctor if he wanted, he has the drive and the willpower it takes to become invested (as shown with how deep his knowledge of the bee and other subjects goes), yet he never did. We see in the pilot how little he actually cares for his “real” job. It pays the bills, thats it. At the end of the day, Gus plays it safe, and you get the feeling in the pilot that he’s not happy with where he’s at. He’s stagnant. Unfulfilled. Just as lost as Shawn.

In a lot of ways, they’re similar with that aspect. Both him and shawn have a variety of interests and skills, yet neither seemed to pursue a career in those fields. In shawns case, in his own words “he mastered it and moved on.” He got bored (ahem, ADHD). But i think in Gus’s case, he was too afraid to try. Or maybe nothing quite gave him enough of a spark to want to. As everyone later points out, Gus has a shit ton of potential that never seemed properly used.

Until Shawn comes around. And he needs him. He needs all of Gus’s knowledge and skills. He even finds the clues that the doctor was fake and Jari was sitting next to the kid with the inhaler. And its fun. He’s excited. Psych brings him joy.

As for our intro to Juliet- fantastic. We learn so much from so little screen time. She can banter with Shawn easily, and isn’t afraid to give pushback or to give Lassiter pointers (which considering she’s like brand new and he’s a bit of a prick is saying something), and she trusts her instincts to follow through with Shawns advice. Shes a good cop. Almost the antithesis to Lassiter. Shes warm, friendly, and trusting to his cold, distant, and weary.

Side note:

James motorcycle face makes me lol every goddamn time

psych is a show about a man and the three people he loves to a frankly insane degree

#and all three of them love him back to an equally insane degree! #psych #shassie #shules #shawngus #i think he should've gotten to unironically kiss them all on the mouth at least once

Jules: Can I be frank with you guys?

Shawn: Sure, but I don’t see how changing your name is gonna help.

Gus: Can I still be gus?

Shawn: Shh, let Frank speak.

Ok watching all the way through psych for the first time, im on 7.04 where they find out juliets stepdad is a lying crook too, just like her dad and every other guy her mums ever dated and it hit me. Juliets biggest fear must've been ending up with some loser lying con like her mother. She must've based so much of her life and her decisions on that fear of winding up with a con without even knowing it and one day years in finding out she's a patsy. And then i realised

oh no

she's dating Shawn

She really is just like her mother

#rip to juliet ohara #you tried babe but u cant escape your childhood damage #look sometimes you cant break the cycle but you can become a slightly better version of your parents #make it easier for the next down the line to break it instead #my parents did that and look at me! im a mess but im not as bad as them! #psych #psych 2006 #juliet o'hara #shawn spencer #shules

oh my god. holy shit. deez nups. the entire buttering-up of seeing lassiter happy the whole episode only for the shules event at the end..? the look on shawn’s face is horrible. just seeing the moment where he realizes that nothing he ever did was good enough for anybody; that his life and choices in life aren’t worth the effort he put into them. where no matter how much good he does- how many murderers he catches; he’s a failure above all else. it’s a direct parallel to his relationship with his dad; the way that he has to choose profession or love and neither way is a good option. where love sculpts you into an ugly vision of self where you only live to please others; and profession offers you joy but only at the expense of never being able to be yourself. shawn doesn’t win in either of these scenarios and he can’t because there’s no way to. no matter what happens after this episode; I don’t think shawn will ever be fully redeemed as a concept; as a character? sure, they need to keep the plot moving. but as a person? in real life that kind of thing doesn’t just disappear after a couple of filler episodes, it lingers and reminds you that people love you until; until they meet a part of you they don’t like, until they figure out a part of you that they didn’t want to. and it’s your fault for being broken; it’s your fault for having that part; that indescribable part that even you aren’t too sure you’d like to share. but they see it, and all the time before that is only until.

PSYCH - 2.08 "Rob-a-Bye Baby."

↳ That was Lassiter. Wants me to meet him at some exotic reptile shop on Central. Said they found some of the stolen merchandise from the robberies.

The more times I rewatch Psych the more “every person in Psych is bisexual” vibes I get. We’re reaching critical bisexuality. It’s the most bisexual show I’ve personally seen.

CONSIDER they totally got wine drunk one night and spent like 6 hours talking about how they would each pull off the coolest prison break known to man. Shawn somehow got the layout of the local prison then Juliet called him a coward and pulled up a map of the state penitentiary. There were several whiteboards and rudimentary sketches. They still have the binder they made. It’s on their fucking mantle. Juliet scrapbooked the shit out of it.

#look at me and tell me they wouldn’t be the coolest fucking Bonnie and Clyde duo #i love them #shawn spencer #juliet o'hara #shules #psych #psych tv #psych usa
