Meat Is Murder, but Murder Is Also Murder
Season 2, Episode 6 · Aired 2007-08-17

Synopsis
Gus' Uncle Burton is in town for a visit, and since Gus has spent all his life trying to live up to his namesake's expectations, he does not correct him when he mistakenly hears that it's Gus who is the psychic detective, for fear of disappointing him yet again. That means that when Uncle Burton tags along on their investigation into the death of Vince Wagner, a prominent restaurant critic, Shawn must help Gus find clues while Gus pretends to be psychic. Shawn looks around and sees leftover containers and evidence of bad cooking. He leads Gus to a "vision," quickly disregarding the wife as a suspect. She was a bad cook, but she was trying to get her husband to eat healthy, not kill him.
