[Shawn pretends to feel a spirit in the records room so he can look at a case file]
ShawnYes, I can feel her all right. She's over by the W's.
Why?
ShawnNo. W.
How do you just eat when there's a dead guy laying there?
ShawnWhat, is that rude? Am I supposed to share?
ShawnThe cat is not my new partner, Gus; don't be ridiculous.
Then tell me again why the cat gets to ride shotgun?
ShawnLet me tell you something. This cat here is a gift, a conduit for us to save lives. And he has more integrity in his furry little hand...
Paw.
ShawnPaw. Than most people have in their whole appendages... Appendages?
What?
ShawnAll of. Than most people have in all of their appendages... combined.
There is a Lt. Crunch here to see you.
Crunch?
[Shawn enters dressed in Civil War uniform]
ShawnActually I've been promoted. It's Captain Crunch.
ShawnAnd by the way, Dad, my birthday wasn't yesterday. It was...four months ago!
Yeah, well, after you were born it took you four months to smile at me. That's when the clock started tickin'.
ShawnOh relax, I did some checking on Nelson Poe, nobody liked him, ever! And second of all...
What?
ShawnDude, I don't have a "second of all"!
ShawnGood morning, detectives! Are we collecting donations for the policeman's ball?
We don't have balls.
ShawnI honestly have no response to that.
Need I remind you, Mr. Spencer, what happens when you interfere with a police investigation?
ShawnUhh... the case gets solved?
When I asked her her name, Shawn, she said, "My name--"
[Shawn cuts in with a high pitched voice]
Shawn"My name is Wilting Flower, I died without knowing love. Will you be my friend?"
H-how did you know that? I never told that to anyone before!
ShawnI was Wilting Flower! Gus! I can't believe you fell for that!
He was drunk and pretended that she had him confused with someone else. He said his name was--get this--Martin Brody.
ShawnMartin Brody? [Pause] Roy Scheider's character from Jaws?
Yes. How did you know?
Shawn...I've seen Jaws.
Don't touch that, it's blood.
ShawnIt's not blood.
Enjoy your hepatitis.
I have to get back to work.
ShawnGus? The plot is thickening!
Shawn, I've already missed two days this week.
ShawnOh, fine, fine, fine. I respect your wishes. Jerk chicken.
You know that's right.
[Shawn is now driving, and Gus is just waking up]
ShawnThere he is.
What time is it?
ShawnDay time.
What happened?
ShawnUh... I might have dropped six allergy pills in your Frosty while you were peeing.
You're not hired. I can't pay you. If it turns out there's something to it, I'll make sure you get put on the case. That's all I can do.
ShawnJuliet, I'm quite sure we could work out some kind of services exchange. You see I like to do some sketching myself and sometimes I need a model.
Huh! [gets up and walks from the room]
ShawnWas that inappropriate? ...Felt ok.
ShawnThis place is trashed.
Maybe Johnny Depp stopped by.
ShawnI'm sorry, did that joke just arrive in a time machine from 1992?
