With Gus away at a corporate retreat, Shawn finds himself alone and bored. He goes to the police station hoping to get involved with a case. Overhearing a conversation between Chief Vick and an older man, he learns that the man's daughter, a tennis player named Deanna Sirtis, has gone missing. Shawn tells Chief Vick that he can use his psychic powers to locate Deanna while the police continue their search. However, he must first use a well-crafted lie to get Gus out of his important retreat. Though Gus is initially incurious about the case, things get more interesting with the evidence of attempted murder.

Episode Notes
 
Psych-Out: Much to the annoyance (and probably delight) of Interim Chief Vick, Shawn acts out a hypothetical conversation between Felix and Deanna that involves both falsetto and a piñata.
 
 
Episode Quotes
 
Shawn: I'd never seen a girl lie about entering the Witness Protection Program.
Gus: She wasn't lying, Shawn.
Shawn: Gus, I saw her at Starbucks.
Gus: You can't be sure of that.
Shawn: She was wearing a name tag. She had a plaque on the wall, "Employee of the Month." Her hobbies were hiding and lying about hiding.
 
Shawn: We find the mystery lover, we find her.
Gus: Dude, why don’t I ever get to say stuff like that?
 
Gus: Wait a second. This is my Airwolf windbreaker! I've been looking for this for like five years now. Why did you take this? I never even saw you wear it.
Shawn: Of course I didn't wear it. I took it so you wouldn't. Don't put it on. Gus, nobody had an Airwolf jacket except Jan-Michael Vincent!
 
Gus: (dramatically) Maybe someone saw her with her mystery lover. (normally) How'd that sound?
Shawn: It feels like you're pushing. You're pressing.
 
Tennis player: You know what her weakness was?
Shawn: Kittens?
 
Shawn: Ew, how grody of her.
Tennis Player: Grody?
Shawn: Grody to the max. Grody with a spoon. Come on, work with me. I don't know what the kids are saying these days.
 
Gus: The billing address is her father's place, but the delivery address is someplace else.
Shawn: Nice focus, Gus.
Gus: Thank you.
Shawn: Maybe you're ready to take on that little girl again.
 
Gus: What happened here?
Juliet: This isn't a missing person case anymore. It's attempted murder.
Gus: Man, even she gets to say stuff like that.
 
Lassiter: I'm gonna let you guys stick around and see what real detectives do.
Shawn: Sweet! Just let us know when they arrive.
 
Gus: I need face time with my boss. I already missed the pamper pole trust exercise.
Shawn: I'm uncomfortable with you even saying the words "pamper pole."
 
Henry: Shawn never really was one for roughing it. We went camping once, found him curled up in his sleeping bag because a raccoon was hunting him.
Shawn: Stalking me, the raccoon was stalking me, Dad.
 
Shawn: (pretending to be a lab researcher) I, too, work at Central Coast, in the lab. Yes, I worked on the mono-thio-huxtable drug. It's for pancake-reactic function.
Gus: Pancreatic.
Shawn: Actually, no, Burton. It was pancake.
Gus: Really?
Shawn: Yes, there are properties in the batter that helped to stabilize the ions we were working with.
Woman: I never heard of that project.
Shawn: It was a great drug. But it caused headaches, stomachaches, toothaches, weight gain, weight loss, balding, severe oily bowel discharge, and, in very rare cases, it made you pee fire.
 
Shawn: Look, without protection, you might as well just send the killer an invitation saying, "Hey, come on back! Finish the job!" I wonder if they make invitations for that.
Juliet: I don't see why not. You can send an e-vite for anything.
Shawn: This is true.
 
Juliet: Roosters don't cackle.
Shawn: What?
Juliet: They cock-a-doodle-doo.
 
Shawn: He said the body was found here in the supine position. So, please, if you will.
Gus: Sure. Just tell me what "supine" means.
Shawn: Gus, supine. Su...
Gus: Mm-hmm.
Shawn: ...pine.
Gus: You don't know what the word means, do you?
Shawn: OK, fine. You win. Mr. Vocabulary wins. (claps) Mr. Vocab is the big winner tonight.
Gus: Thank you. No, please, please, please. It means on your back.
Shawn: I knew that
Gus: No, you didn't.
 
Gus: So, the prophecy's been fulfilled.
Shawn: Mm. What? What are you talking about? What prophecy?
Gus: Nothing. I just figured it was finally my chance to say something dramatic.
 
Gus: He wants to meet my grandmother.
Shawn: So?
Gus: So, you know one of them is dead and the other one lives in Jamaica.
Shawn: Dude, relax. I know like five people that could easily play your grandmother.
Gus: OK, so you know a line-dancing octogenarian who can do chin-ups and has two broken hips?
Shawn: Yeah, as long as she can be Chinese.
