Summary: The entire list of things that Carlton Lassiter liked about Shawn Spencer came into play on that otherwise innocuous Tuesday.
(Because of that fateful Tuesday, he has discovered he is willing to break the rules sometimes, and while the thought alarms him, he doesn't think there's anything he can do about it now that he knows.)

There are still many things about Shawn Spencer that Carlton Lassiter doesn't like.
(He's pretty sure nothing can change that, no matter what Shawn does.)
But somehow the list of things to like about Shawn Spencer has grown.
(The list of things to not like has also grown, but it does that on a daily basis, whether he sees Shawn that day or not.)
Fourth, he was willing to sacrifice his life to save a child.
(Even if he was an idiot and didn't take backup which would have made that UNNECESSARY.)
Fifth, he has the charisma to make people follow him without even blinking.
(Even if that makes them seem kind of stupid, it's impressive nonetheless.)
Carlton Lassiter will never ever, EVER tell anyone this, but there are days he wishes he could be a little like Spencer.
(Mostly Wednesdays.)
