Psych Summer Finale

Spoilers behind the cut.

Dear Jules,

I love you, but I wish you weren't a filthy whore.

Dear Shawn,

Hang in there, you'll get her eventually.

PS:  Your pulley system is ingenius.

Dear Gus,

It's okay to be gay or bi, whichever you are, but you might want to focus your energies elsewhere; Shawn and Jules will get together eventually (but I suppose you could comfort him in the meantime, if you wanted to). 
;-)

Dear Lassiter,

You rock.  Don't be too rough on the little Lassiters, no matter what suggestions Shawn may make. 
:-P

Dear Alan Ruck,

You are one of my favorites.  You know, just in general.

Dear Psych Writers,

I didn't know it was possible to be this conflicted about an episode.  On the one hand, there was hilarious slashy goodness (mostly Gus/Shawn, but even some Shawn/Lassiter... both pairings delight me, despite the fact that, obviously, nothing serious will happen there), but on the other hand, you turned Jules into a filthy whore (I mean, she and Shawn were practically holding hands last week, and now she's dating some geezer?  Boo.  [lol]).  How can I be delighted by hints that Shawn may be gay for Gus and/or Lassiter and also disgusted by the fact that Jules is rejecting Shawn?  Welcome to the dark, frightening, twisted alleyway of my mind.  Watch out, though, I'm pretty sure a drunk horked over there where you're standing.

I probably wouldn't mind the Jules situation so much if this weren't the last episode for several months.  If new episodes were coming up over the next few weeks, it would probably get resolved in short order, but now I have to be pissed at Jules til January, even though I know this is just a temporary obstacle for Shawn to overcome.

Actually, to be perfectly honest, I'm not that conflicted about this episode.  I sort of loved it.  A lot.  I wouldn't even get rid of Jules being a whore, because Shawn's comments about Gary Cole's character over the phone when half the SBPD was listening were fucking fried gold, and that character provided a mutual enemy for Shawn and Lassiter.  I just wish Jules had dumped the geezer at the end.  She wouldn't even have to pursue anything with Shawn yet... *sigh.*

I might write more about this when I've calmed down and watched the episode again.

Wow, I'm a dork.
:-D
