Catalog log
Broadcast listing — not a TV Flash recap.
Juliet goes to the train station to meet Scott Seaver, her college boyfriend. They had planned to meet there exactly seven years after they said goodbye, but he never shows up. At first dejected, she quickly becomes curious as to why he didn't show. She starts to use police resources to track him down, but Vick puts a stop to that before she can find anything. She sees Gus in the station, and asks for his help - but he must keep Shawn out of it. With everything that's happened between them, it would be weird. Gus agrees and goes back to the Psych office, where Shawn immediately figures out he's doing something behind his back. Gus has to admit he's finding someone for Juliet, but doesn't let him know Scott was Juliet's ex-boyfriend. The next day, an elated Shawn tells Juliet he found her missing person and he's dead. A distraught Juliet runs out of the room, and Gus must admit to Shawn who Scott really is. A guilty Shawn then decides to look deeper into what happened to Scott to give Juliet some answers.

A fake psychic and his best friend sell hyper-observation as Santa Barbara theater. Psych is pineapple hunts, musical detours, and James Roday–Dulé Hill chemistry as the product: detective comedy that built a rewatch religion and then kept going in the movies.
Santa Barbara, in this lighting, is a playground in pastels: a fake psychic selling hyper-observation as theater, a best friend as the tailored straight man, pineapples hiding in the frame like a running accessory. Steve Franks's Psych (2006–2014) is USA's lighter counterpart to darker cable — James Roday and Dulé Hill as the product, Timothy Omundson, Maggie Lawson, Corbin Bernsen, Kirsten Nelson — gags, callbacks, and heart in a zip code that refuses grim procedural weather. Chemistry as the silhouette. The…
