[[folder: Season 1]]
* In one of the episodes, Shawn claims that the victim of the week was murder, which Lassie promptly confirms as correct. Apparently not registering this, Shawn goes off on Lassie, calling him out for not trusting him, while Lassie looks simultaneously amused and bemused.
* "From the Earth to the Starbucks": The Jackal has arrived. But you might not see him standing there, being so stealth-like.
** From the same episode, there's Shawn's attempt at narrating the planetarium's presentation:
-->'''Shawn''': Hello, ladies and gentlemen. I will be your narrator. My name is [[AtrociousAlias Aurora... Borealis]] There are over four... Hundred stars in our galaxy. Maybe more, no one knows for sure. Many have said that the universe is even larger than the Indian ocean. And that is why it is called "Infinitum Staroctopussium."
** There's also the fact that while going off to search the premises for clues, he leaves the planetarium show (which lasts 4 minutes) running. '''At MAX SPEED. FOR 40 MINUTES.''' Cue the crowd stumbing out of the show, dizzy and falling over, cross-eyed.
* From "Weekend Warriors", a secretary informs Gus there's a 'Lt. Crunch' there to see him.
-->'''Shawn''': Actually no, I've been promoted... It's Captain Crunch.
** The only thing that makes this better is him walking in dressed in a Civil War military uniform, and then later dressing Gus up to look like he was commanding a marching band.
* Shawn sending Gus (note: black guy) into a tanning salon as part of an investigation, and Gus actually attempting to make that fly... for about a thirty seconds, before just giving up and asking the guy his questions point blank.
* While Shawn and crew infiltrate a speed dating event, they each have interesting results.
** Lassiter actually interrogates one of the women about what kind of vehicle she drives. She takes this to mean he’s very superficial and walks away.
** Later, Lassiter gets matched up with Juliet. Lassiter buttons up his open collar and they both sit in awkward silence for several seconds, which gets the attention of the hostess.
* Gus's list of rules for going into a supposedly haunted, abandoned mental hospital. These rules include refusing to be the first person to enter a room or the last person to leave a room (which, considering it's just him and Shawn, [[FridgeLogic is a logical impossibility.]])
** Shawn and Gus running and screaming like little girls from the (alleged) haunted sorority house. When Juliet comes out after them, Shawn tries to act all cool and collected and says he and Gus are going to compare notes-till Gus blows his cover by speeding away in the car.
** Even better is that when Gus gets his foot stuck between floorboards and Shawn ditches him, he takes off his belt and starts swinging it around in a circle, in some sort of attempt to be genre-savvy.
** Gus trying to distract a woman by saying he lost his cat ("Mrs. Pickles!") while Shawn snoops around in her house - pausing to eat some cupcakes along the way.
* This random little speech from "Poker? I Barely Know Her":
-->'''Shawn''': My pilot's licence? Out back in the Cessna. Or perhaps you're referring to my licence to kill? Revoked. Problems at the Kazakhstan border. I could give you the details, but then I'd have to kill you, which I can't do because my licence to kill has been revoked.
** Heavily implied in the gag reel that this was improvised.
* Shawn giving words to the contestants of the "Spellinng Bee".
-->'''Shawn''': Banana.
-->'''Contestant''': [in disbelief] Could you repeat that?
-->'''Shawn''': Yes. Banaannaaaaa.
** Gus tries to show off his former spelling bee prowess in front of the contest administrator:
-->'''Gus:''' Shawn, this [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal misplaced malevolence you have with the spelling bee is getting monotonous]]. Stop hitting on the bee. I'm sorry, ma'am, I do apologise for his [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness inappropriate virulence]].
* Shawn sitting on Lassiter's lap in "9 Lives".
** Little. Boy. Cat. From Shawn's apparent CutenessProximity with him, to Gus's jealously over being replaced by a ''cat'', to Shawn using the cat as lead in to present him and Gus as a gay couple, to Shawn using the cat as a "psychic medium" to the bad guy being tackled by a freakin' ''cat''. And then the call backs in later seasons, [[YourTomCatIsPregnant particularly the fact that it was not a little boy cat]].
** "I want to talk to that cat... as soon as he's finished, you know. Licking himself."
* From "Who Ya Gonna Call?": Lassiter calmly (but quite happily) shooting the cute little figurines meant for his wife, set to [[StandardSnippet On the Beautiful Blue Danube]].
* In "Woman Seeking Dead Husband: Smokers Okay, No Pets" Shawn and Gus are held at gunpoint by one of the ex-cons who demands proof that Shawn is a psychic. Shawn accurately guesses how many fingers he has behind his back each time. When the astonished ex-con demands to know how he did it, Shawn [[SarcasticConfession sarcastically admits]] that he saw the reflection of his hands in the television set behind him reflected in the mirror which is in turn reflected in the polished water jug in front of him. The ex-con gives him one more chance, but just in case moves from in front of the television... to a position where he's standing ''right in front of Gus''. Gus has a hilarious "I can't even with this guy" expression on his face.
-->'''Shawn''': (exasperated) Dude... ''you'' need to stop picking three.
** "Annnnd the guy with the gun is flipping me the bird."
* Shawn and Gus pose as visiting foreign scientists at a zoo, and Gus gets drafted into helping a warthog give birth. He tries to refuse by making nonsense sounds in the language he supposedly speaks (and which the zoo director doesn't). Shawn "mistranslates" by saying that of course Gus will do it, which is followed by a GilliganCut of Gus throwing up after the delivery.
* Shawn and Gus manage to avoid getting in trouble for trespassing on forest land by posing as lost hikers, with Shawn telling the ranger that Gus screamed like a little girl.
* In one opening flashback, a young Shawn refuses to put back one of the two candy bars he picked up in a store, saying that would indicate he prefers one candy bar over the other, and he refuses to play favorites.
* At the end of "Poker, I Barely Knew Her," Juliet's attempt to throw Lassiter a surprise birthday party goes hilariously wrong when she invites the people in his address book, who are criminals he's busted. Lassiter then announces that he has to move, now that every repeat offender he's ever arrested knows where he lives. Even better is how a FunnyBackgroundEvent shows that one of the criminals actually brought a gift to the party.
* "Scary Sherry: Bianca's Toast" has Gus explain why he believes so strongly in the supernatural - when he was 10, he heard a ghost called Wilting Flower speak to him, telling him she wanted to be his friend. This freaked young Gus out, and he never told anyone about it. Shawn then proceeds to tell Gus that "I was Wilting Flower", having trolled him walkie-talkie, and expresses disbelief that Gus actually fell for it. It also helps that the whimsical music stops dead in its tracks after Shawn's revelation.

[[folder: Season 2]]
* "American Duos":
** All of the judges' comments on Shawn and Gus's audition.
** This hilarious exchange between Henry and [[Creator/TimCurry Nigel St. Nigel]]-
--->'''Henry''': What kind of a sicko goes commando under another man's robe?
--->'''Nigel''': [[CheshireCatGrin (Grins)]]
** Also, Juliet acting as Shawn and Gus's dance coach to get them onto the show. She... gets a little deep into it:
--->'''Juliet:''' Can I teach you how to crump? Maybe. That’s up to you. [[SeriousBusiness But I can’t reach inside of you and make you want this -- I mean absolutely]] ''[[SeriousBusiness need]]'' [[SeriousBusiness this -- the way that both Hall and Oates used to need this]]. Well Oates was a little more, probably. This has to come from inside here ''[points to heart]''. And deep deep deep inside ''here'' ''[Points to stomach]''.\\
'''Shawn:''' Jules. You do realize that there is a suspect in custody and the case is just about closed.\\
'''Juliet:''' [[SkewedPriorities Is that what this laissez-faire, half-baked effort is about, huh? The case? I thought you were in it to win it!]]\\
'''Shawn:''' Jules, are you feeling okay?\\
'''Juliet:''' Sharp as cheddar.
** How much of a CausticCritic is Nigel St. Nigel? So much so that he even criticizes the attempts on his life that led him to seeking Shawn's help in the first place.
--->'''Nigel''': Really? That was your plan? That has to be the poorest executed attack in history. I was [[spoiler:two feet away from you all the time]]! I mean, you have to be absolutely, without doubt, the worst murderer I have ever seen! ''[Points and laughs at [[spoiler:Zapato]], who is being carried off by the police, and mockingly sings [[spoiler:Mira Me]]]''
* "65 Million Years Off":
** Shawn's "Lenny" impression from Literature/OfMiceAndMen. The best part comes when he tries using it as a last-ditch attempt to interrogate a particularly stubborn (and potentially dangerous) suspect at his front door.
---> '''Shawn''': Hello! My name is Lenny! I like to - (The guy slams the door in his face)
** A mental health professional Henry summons for an intervention for Shawn [[HoistByHisOwnPetard is more interested]] in discussing Henry's ControlFreak issues.
* "Zero to Murder in Sixty Seconds":
** As Lassiter gloats to Shawn and Gus about how he's been invited to speak at an important police conference, he walks outside and discovers that his car has been stolen from the police parking lot. Shawn quips it will give Lassiter a funny story to tell at the conference.
---> '''Lassiter:''' You guys are so funny. Oh, guess what? I just got a new car. [[FlashedBadgeHijack Yours.]]
** When Shawn and Gus find Lassiter's stolen car, they remove it from the chop shop before calling Chief Vick so that the car won't get confiscated as evidence. Unfortunately, they accidentally park it in a tow-away zone.
** Shawn trying to alert the police to a chop shop by faking a vision and describing it like a scene from a horror movie.
--->'''Shawn''': Victims! I see victims everywhere! It's HORRIBLE! Sawed-off parts strewn about! Fluids spraying in every direction!
--->'''Vick''': Oh, dear God!
--->'''O'Hara''': Are we talking about a serial killer?
--->'''Shawn''': I see the victims' names! Accord! Look out!
--->'''Gus''': Get outta there!
--->'''Shawn''': Escalade! Don't let him in the door! Oh, Camry, you were too young to go...
--->'''O'Hara''': Are we talking about cars?
* In "Meat is Murder, but Murder is Also Murder", Shawn pretends to be a health inspector doing a surprise examination to look for clues in the kitchen of Antonio's restaurant. Antonio is very surprised, since they already had one a few days ago.
--> '''Shawn''':...You weren't surprised enough.
* In "If You're So Smart Then Why Are You Dead?", Juliet practicing her interrogation techniques on Lassiter.
--> '''Juliet''': If you confess now, and name your accomplices, I will let the DA know you cooperated and maybe, just maybe, no guarantees, JUST MAYBE! ..they'll cut you a break. *beat* ''(pushes over a chair)''
--> '''Lassiter''': [[BrutalHonesty That's terrible.]]
* Three in "Rob-a-bye Baby":
** [[MakesSenseInContext when Shawn and Gus are mistaken for creeps in the park.]]
** [[ItMakesSenseInContext Shawn's marriage proposal.]]
** The episode's flashback scene shows Shawn ask Henry how babies are born and receiving a woefully inaccurate explanation involving [[NoodleImplements a hydraulic lift]]. He then asks how babies are ''made'' and Henry gets really squeamish. When Shawn threatens to ask his mom if Henry can't spit it out, Henry starts to protest, then resignedly tells Shawn to tuck in his shirt before going to see Mrs. Spencer.
* "Gus' Dad May Have Killed an Old Guy":
-->'''Lassiter''': OK, who keeps telling people I want snow globes for Christmas?!
** Shawn trying to creep Gus out by invoking "Literature/TheTellTaleHeart" but promptly being defeated when Gus retaliates with a [[Film/{{Psycho}} Norma Bates impression]].
** Gus (who's African-American) makes an AccidentalBid on a ''Confederate flag.''
* From 2x11, "There's Something About Mira", Shawn and Gus are at the batting cages. Shawn tells Gus that this guy has been following them around all day, and they decide to get his attention. Shawn picks up a ball, moves to the entrance of the batting cage, and throws it at the man; it hits the pole behind the guy and bounces off into the distance while the stranger remains oblivious. Gus scoffs and pushes Shawn aside:
--> '''Gus''': Let me show you how it's done. Watch out. (He ''hurls'' the ball as hard as he can... only for it to hit the fence over the opening, ricochet over their heads, and roll into the depths of the batting cage.)
--> '''Shawn''': That very well may be the most humiliating moment of your life.
** There's also Mira's mother trying to flirt with Shawn, much to his confusion.
-->'''Mira's mother:''' I like my men like I like my wine--white and...''hairy.''
-->'''Shawn:'''...That makes no sense. At all.
* From "The Old and the Restless."
** Shawn asks for Henry's help in investigating a nursing home, then, without warning, walks up to the desk asking to have Henry admitted, claiming Henry is his seventy-something grandfather. When the administrator says that Henry doesn't look that old, Shawn claims it's because Henry is a former male model who's had lots of plastic surgery.
** Lassiter's attempts to [[ScareEmStraight frighten a politician's delinquent son into changing his ways]] by getting a prisoner to talk about how bad incarcerated life is fails miserably. The inmate enjoys almost everything about prison and is happy to say so. When Lassiter says that, if nothing else, "[[WardensAreEvil the guards are merciless]]", the prisoner says that actually, the guards are so nice that he's helping plan a birthday party for one of them (which the guard at the door confirms).
* "Lights, Camera... Homicidio":
** When a telenovela star kills a co-star with a NotSoFakePropWeapon, Gus protests that they can't fire the man before the viewers find out whether or not [[MamasBabyPapasMaybe another man is his baby's father.]] When everyone stares at Gus, he tries to do a VerbalBackspace and claim he really cares about this poor man's livelihood as an actor on the show before admitting that no, [[SkewedPriorities he is more interested in seeing that plot line resolved.]]
** The show's writer sees being arrested on suspicion of murder as a chance to do research on "the harsh underbelly of prison life."
---> '''Gus:''' This is the Santa Barbara jail, not San Quentin.
---> '''Shawn:''' It was written up in Fodor's last year as a nice spa alternative.
** Shawn winds up with a role in the telenovela; he does a decent job reciting lines in Spanish off the teleprompter, but once things go off-script he rapidly devolves into:
--->'''Shawn''': *Spanish accent* I am not a murderer-o! But I know who is-o!
** When Lassiter arrests the killer in front of a live camera, he has a moment to address the millions of viewers. His StageFright and limited Spanish vocabulary limit Lassiter to saying, "I like cheese."
* "Black and Tan: A Crime of Fashion" and the hilarious model powerwalk down the alley.
** ''All'' of the unnecessary powerwalks - with pumping music! - as Shawn solves the murder on stage.
** "I beg your pardon? My name is Black. His name is Tan. I can't believe you just made that assumption. You should be ashamed of yourself and your family."
* "Shawn (and Gus) of the Dead":
** Shawn is trying to find camera blindspots, while Gus checks the camera. Gus's entire running conversation is hilarious, particularly when Shawn mutes him to hit on the assistant curator.
--->'''Gus''': You're muting me for the first interesting thing that's happened? [Begins imitating Shawn] Look at me, look at me! I love my hair! I can make [[LampshadeHanging obscure 80s references that nobody understands]]! Hey, know something about me? I have a motorcycle ''[[InformedAbility but I never seem to be riding it!]]''
** Shawn and Gus tour the museum, and reach the display of the dinosaur skeleton they helped find at the beginning of the season. But Gus is a little upset at his credit.
---> '''Gus''': My name is ''Burton Guster'', not '''Bruton Gaster!''' Haven't you people ever heard of spellcheck?!
** This exchange:
--->'''Shawn''': Dude, he took that van!
--->'''Film Girl''': The mummy?
--->'''Gus''': Great, now we got a mummy on the loose and the son of a bitch knows how to drive stick?
** Gus running away when they see the mummy on the monitor.
** As they jump in Gus's company car to chase after the van, Gus has to turn the car around. And it takes a while.
---> '''Shawn''': An eleven-point turn? Seriously?



[[/folder]]

[[folder: Season 3]]
* Gus tells Shawn that he's listed as a dependent on Gus's tax returns because of how much money Gus has to spend on him.
* This exchange from "Lassie Did a Bad Bad Thing" will have you rolling for the tone alone:
-->'''Shawn''': You really want to know my method?\\
'''Lassiter''': Yes!\\
'''Shawn''': It usually starts with a ''Holla!'', and ends with a creamsicle.\\
'''Gus''': And if there's time in the middle? WesternAnimation/{{ThunderCats|1985}}. ''Hooo!''
** From earlier in the same episode, Shawn and Gus barge in on Lassiter's interrogation to [[UnwantedAssistance "help him".]]
-->'''Gus''': We knew he would shoot ''somebody'' someday-
-->'''Detective Ocampo''': So you think he's capable of it?
-->'''Shawn''': No, he doesn't. As the most Lassiter would plant evidence.
-->'''Lassiter''': Would someone please get them the hell out of here?
* From "Gus Walks Into A Bank": The hostage negotiator is rambling on and on about his family and making really ineffectual promises. The hostage taker obviously gets the insincerity behind it and rolls his eyes. It's funnier than it sounds!
** One word: Manboobs. Every time Shawn asks Juliet if the Hostage Negotiator has them. The other officers listening in are laughing as well.
** On their ride to save the "bank robber's" wife, Shawn grills Juliet about her dating Luntz, and Juliet defends her attraction to him in great detail. Lassiter finally has to remind them, in the flattest, most deadpan voice possible, "You two know I'm in the van, right?"
** Shawn makes a connection with Stubbins, finds out that his wife has been kidnapped and he's being forced to rob the bank. When Shawn says he can get a message to Stubbins's wife, Stubbins grabs him and starts whispering directly into Shawn's ear like he's a walkie talkie.
* In "Disco Didn't Die. It Was Murdered!", the B-plot involves Jules and Lassiter trying to decide which of them gets to take the super-exciting diamond smuggling case and which takes a seemingly boring permit violations case. Eventually they decide to con [=McNab=] into taking the "lead" in the permits case while they go off and catch the smugglers... and get hit with LaserGuidedKarma ''hard.'' First they end up accidentally tracking down the wrong smugglers and get themselves attacked by [[ItMakesSenseInContext dozens of angry illegally transported wild marmosets]] (turns out they don't like being shot at), while [=McNab=]'s "boring" case turns out to involve real-life pirates. So naturally, they con [=McNab=] into giving them back the now-interesting case - only to catch up with the criminals [[FinaglesLaw only a mile outside their jurisdiction, and end up forced by the coastguard to stay in the smallest, most nauseatingly turbulent room in their boat.]] The fact that [=McNab=] is [[TheDitz his usual lovably dimwitted self]] and [[TheFool has no idea that the two tricked him and how karma keeps giving him his unwitting just deserts]] makes it all the funnier.
* In "Six Feet Under the Sea", a local aquatic celebrity is murdered. When Shawn and Gus are in the police station after being detained for breaking into the aquarium to look for evidence, Lassie grills them for info-- not realizing that the murder victim was a sea lion, not a human.
--> '''Lassie''': I'm going to kill you, Spencer.
--> '''Shawn''': I never told you the victim was not a sea lion.
** It's more humorous and surprising that he didn't understand all the obvious hints before TheReveal.
--> '''Lassie''': Give me the victim's name.
--> '''Shawn''': Shabby.
--> '''Lassie''': Shabby. Is that a street name?
--> '''Gus''': It's more of a given name.
--> '''Lassie''': Last name?
--> '''Gus''': He doesn't have one.
--> '''Lassie''': Do not play with me.
--> '''Shawn''': Can I spell it?
--> '''Lassie''': I don't care.
--> '''Shawn''': T-H-E...
--> '''Lassie''': T-H-E...
--> '''Shawn''': S-E-A...
--> '''Lassie''': S-E-A...
--> '''Shawn''': L-I-O... N...
--> '''Lassie''': L-I-O-N... "Thesealion"? What is that? French?
--> '''Gus''': [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinniped Pinniped.]]
--> '''Lassie''': Pinniped? Never heard of it. All right, description?
--> '''Shawn''': Black.
--> '''Lassie''': Black. Height and weight?
--> '''Shawn''': Six, seven hundred pounds.
--> '''Lassie''': Jeez, Louise!
--> '''Shawn''': Listen, can you get a body exhumed?
--> '''Lassie''': Of course I can. As long as I'm in on the autopsy.
** From the same episode, Shawn and Gus are talking to the criminals about various things to buy time for the police to arrive, leading to this exchange:
--> '''Shawn''':And I've been doing something I like to call "stalling." And Rutger Hauer calls "schtalling."
--> '''Criminal''': Why?
--> '''Gus''': ...Because he's Dutch.
* When Shawn is asked to identify a severed foot, Gus excused himself to throw up, [[OutOfTheFryingPan only to look for a trashcan in the room where the rest of the unidentified bodies are kept.]]
* In 3x12 "Earth, Wind and...Wait for It...", Shawn and Gus have a rather awesome moment when they walk out of a burning building, both carrying an unconscious person each, all while victorious music plays in the background. However, quickly after when Juliet and Lassie come over to ask what happened, Shawn and Gus spend a good thirty seconds hacking their lungs up before they can answer.
* In 3x14 "Truer Lies", Shawn pretends to be Juliet telling him that she wishes Gus was dead so that she could be his partner in the Psych detective business. For some reason Gus believes him ("That's messed up") despite knowing how much of a TheGadfly Shawn is. Juliet's own appalled expression clinches it.
* The ScoobyDoobyDoors gag with Shawn, Gus, and Gus' sister, Joy ([[spoiler: who had a fling with Shawn]] and was trying to sneak in his room. Shawn did so as well, which attracted Gus, causing Joy and Shawn to avoid Gus as they try to find each other leading to the gag), all to the tune of "Santa Baby".
** Then afterwards Shawn goes downstairs and spots a black wise man to his surprise; his reaction is priceless.
*** It comes up later.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Season 4]]
* Shawn convinces Gus to dodge security lasers in "Extradition: British Columbia":
-->'''Shawn''': Those are Canadian lasers!
** At the very end of the episode, when Despereaux tells Shawn that he's often fantasized about breaking out of prison. Look at the guy's face.
** Another from the episode, believing Despereaux is about to point a gun at him, Shawn quickly... hides behind a ''pillow''.
** The look of utter shock, dismay and even hurt on Lassiter's face when he gloats on how, after all these years, he's finally caught the master thief...and Despereaux reveals he has no idea who Lassiter is.
* In "He Dead," there's the way that a SpoiledBrat complains about his father "Taking away my Porsche, making me get a job, selling my tiger."
** Shawn and Gus repeatedly piss off their wealthy client enough that they get chased off the estate by some {{Angry Guard Dog}}s. The second time, Shawn has just assured the Claytons that he's found a new suspect and everyone in their family has been exonerated. Then, it turns out the new suspect is the estranged WhiteSheep of the family. Their client gives a DeathGlare, and when Shawn nervously glances at Gus for support, his partner has already pulled a StealthHiBye.
* In ''High Noon-ish'', Shawn and Gus have recently returned from an investigation in a western-themed tourist trap, and are still dressed in their sheriff and blacksmith costumes. They end up admitting to Lassiter that the clues point in several different directions, and an impatient Lassiter asks what they ''did'' get.
--> '''Shawn''' (In a bad western accent): Gus caught th' consumption.
--> '''Gus''': I did n-''breaks out coughing loudly''
** In the opening scene, Gus assumes that Lassie's finally snapped and is driving Shawn and Gus to the middle of nowhere and executing them. Lassie telling them he's not shooting anyone doesn't reassure Gus.
--> '''Gus''': He didn't say anything about knifing anyone.
* In "The Devil's in the Details... and the Upstairs Bedroom", Shawn asks Henry for advice on what to do if his partner (Gus) is wrong, and he (Shawn) knows it. Henry tells Shawn to tell Gus that he's wrong, but to do so in the most respectful manner possible. GilliganCut to Shawn confronting Gus:
--> '''Shawn''': You were wrong, wrong wrong wrong! Finger guns! *points at Gus* Wrong! *makes bang sound* Wrong! *bang sound* In your weenie! *bang sound*
--> '''Gus''': Shawn, put down the finger guns.
** This exchange when the "possessed" girl says she doesn't need any help.
--->'''Father Wesley''': She's lying. To get us to leave.
--->'''Shawn''': Well, if I woke up and there were two random dudes and a priest standing over me, I'd lie too.
** From the same episode, Shawn's jingles.
---> '''Shawn:''' Bum bum bum... Muffins/Wafers/''Hooo-oooly Ghoooost''.
*** Father Wesley actually liked that one.
** Shawn mocking how girls' Website/{{Facebook}} profiles always have pictures of themselves and a friend cheek to cheek. Gus promptly points to a similar [[HoYay picture of the two of them in the same post on Shawn's desk]].
** During the SummationGathering, we get this wonderful exchange.
--->'''Shawn:''' Pfft, Cam, don't be so naive. Men and women can't be friends.\\
'''Gus:''' ''Film/WhenHarryMetSally'' taught us that.\\
'''Shawn:''' It also taught us that women often fake orgasms.\\
'''Lassiter:''' ''[shoots a shocked look at Juliet]''\\
'''Juliet:''' ''[gives a rueful shrug and nod]''
* In "Shawn Gets the Yips", Lassiter is interviewed for the news, so Shawn and Gus [[FunnyBackgroundEvent hold a contest to see who can get on camera the most,]] [[SillyWalk in the most ridiculous ways possible.]]
-->'''Lassie: KNOCK IT OFF!'''
** From the same episode, there is a tense scene where it seems that the killer rigged Shawn's elliptical bike with a bomb, and left a message saying that Shawn would die if his heart rate went below 150bpm. Gus it trying to encourage his exhausted friend to hold on till the bomb squad comes in... then Jules walks in, revealing that she left the message as motivation. The beeping sound under the elliptical was just a phone that kept getting misplaced throughout the episode. Gus and Shawn's bemused reactions are priceless.
** Shawn's response to Jules saying her trainer taught her this method? "WHAT KIND OF SICK TRAINER HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING WITH?!"
* "Bollywood Homicide"
** Shawn's client repeatedly slams the door in his face out of exasperation for his earlier laziness preventing him from taking the case seriously.
** Shawn causes the police to suspect his client's brother and gets chewed out for it. Shawn angrily and haughtily lists all of the things he did to find evidence exonerating the brother, [[NotHelpingYourCase but ends by saying that he also got him arrested in the first place.]]
** During the middle of Shawn's summation, [[ItMakesSenseInContext a holy man abruptly walks by and tosses paint on him.]]
** Shawn and Gus's reaction to the BlazingInfernoHellfireSauce while Abigail is able to down it with no trouble.
* In "High Top Fade Out", Shawn singing "If Jesus was our manager, He would bring us all together."
* Lassiter spends most of "Shawn Takes a Shot in the Dark" pointing out how working with Henry is exactly like working with Shawn, and we get this exchange in the climax.
-->(Henry grabs Lassiter's gun, and [[ItMakesSenseInContext Shawn is hanging onto the hood of the car]])
-->'''Lassiter''': SPENCER, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!
-->'''Shawn''': HEY, WHICH SPENCER ARE YOU TALKING TO?!
-->'''Lassiter''': IT DOESN'T MATTER, [[GenerationXerox YOU'RE THE SAME PERSON!!!]]
-->'''Shawn''': [[ManChild ARE NOT!]]
** Even getting shot doesn't shut Shawn up:
---> '''Shawn''': I can say without a doubt that this is the most pain I have ever been in my life, so if you wouldn't mind turning around I would very much like to weep.
** Also from that episode, Henry's CaptainObvious moment after Shawn jumps onto a moving car:
--->'''Henry:''' Hold on, Shawn!\\
'''Shawn:''' [[SarcasmMode Great idea, dad. I was thinking of not doing that.]]
** We only see Shawn's bachelor living space a couple of times, and we only see it extensively in this episode--and it's a dry cleaner's. Complete with clothes mostly owned by Gus.
* "You Can't Handle This Episode".
-->'''Shawn''': Major-General.
-->'''Felts''': Yes?
-->'''Shawn''': Oh, no, I don't need anything. I just like to say "Major General". [To Gus] Try it.
-->'''Gus''': No, Shawn.
-->'''Shawn''': Gus, just try it.
-->'''Gus''': No!
-->'''Shawn''': Dude, just try it.
-->'''Gus''': Major General! [beat, then he smiles]
** The goofiness of the smile sells it.
** This exchange from the same episode is possibly even funnier:
--->'''Felts''': That kind of idiocy will not be tolerated on my base!
--->'''Shawn''': Is there another kind of idiocy you would prefer?
** Shawn immediately shuts up when he sees the General's expression.
** Shawn introduces Gus as Guy Buttersnaps during the episode, which itself is funny, but not notable as he gives Gus a weird name all the time. However, ''much'' later in the episode, as the Major General is talking about the case, he specifically says, "Thanks to Shawn Spencer and his partner...(''looks at paper'') Guy Buttersnaps..." And it's hilarious.
* After the ColdOpen in "Thrill Seekers & Hell Raisers":
-->''' 1989 Shawn''': (After his dad stops him and Gus from trying to attempt to go BASE jumping on the roof) One day I won't be living in your house! Then I'll be able to take any risk I want!
-->'''1989 Henry''': You know what? When you and Gus are 30 years old you can go out and be as wild and reckless as you want.
-->(Cut to the present 20 years later: Shawn and Gus are holding bunnies)
-->'''Shawn''': Best idea ever.
-->'''Gus''': People say our intense love of bunnies is creepy at our age, but history will prove them to be heartless bastards.
** And the part involving [[MakesSenseInContext the name "Samson" and Shawn's ignorance about the Bible]]:
-->'''Shawn''': Samson, that's just a great name. Straight out of film noir: an old detective who drinks hard but loves even harder. Or go with me here: ([[HeliumSpeech In a high-pitched voice with a British accent]]) Samson, a tiny little orphan mouse who must find his way home to [[RhymesOnADime Wolverhampton.]]
-->'''Gus''': Or Samson the legendary figure from the Bible?
-->'''Shawn''': No, that doesn't work. All those guys have names like Ben-Hur and Prometheus.
-->'''Gus''': You have never read the Bible have you?
-->'''Shawn:''' (scoffs and proceeds to [[KnowNothingKnowItAll name the first four books in the Bible]]) [[Literature/BookOfGenesis Genesis]], [[Literature/BookOfExodus Ex]][[Film/TheExorcist orcist]], [[Literature/BookOfLeviticus Levi]]athan [[note]] to be fair, a Leviathan ''is'' a creature from the Bible [[/note]], [[Literature/BookOfDeuteronomy Deuuuuu]]... [do] the right thing.
-->'''Gus''': Oh, my gosh.
-->'''Lassiter''': Stop talking!
* "A Very Juliet Episode": Shawn copying an imprisoned crime lord's (played by Creator/ArnoldVosloo) accent.
** He was just trying to speak the man's language...
** Gus's reaction when he is introduced with his real name.
* "The Head, the Tail, the Whole Damn Episode" is a WholePlotReference to {{Film/Jaws}}. At one point, during a loud, chaotic squabble of a press conference, Shawn sees a chance to drum up some business (and get a boat so they can look for a large shark that's eaten some evidence), and he tries to pull a Quint by drawing a picture of a shark on a nearby board, then scraping his nails down it... but the board he uses is a ''whiteboard'', and he can't make a horrible noise from it. Instead, he leans into the microphone and lets out a loud "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" while he does. Once he has their attention...
-->'''Shawn''': You all know who I am...
-->'''Random guy in the audience''': No, we don't...
-->'''Shawn''': You know how I make my living...
-->'''Random guy in the audience''': We still don't know who you are...
-->'''Shawn''': I'M A PSYCHIC, JACK!!
** The team needs to know what a knife would have to look like to create a knife wound like on the corpse, so Woody starts sketching one... ''on the corpse''. Then he stops and looks guilty, "Dear lord, what am I doing? This is half a man."
* While the episode "Mr. Yin Presents..." is mostly an atypically grim episode, there is Shawn's hilariously surreal dream sequence involving Henry as an usher, Juliet as [[Film/{{Psycho}} Marion Crane]], and ''Lassiter'' as Norman/Mrs. Bates.
** Plus, Mary making a hat for Ben, the mouse from the Mr. Yang episode, with Gus' $20 bill.

[[folder: Season 5]]
* In the [[QuirkyTown small town]] of [[Series/TwinPeaks Dual Spires]], none of the townspeople understand Shawn's pop culture references. Eventually, out of annoyance, he asks what shows they have watched. Their suspect revealed the town gets together every Tuesday to watch reruns of ''Series/{{Everwood}}'', which Shawn replies he could work with that. He does manage do and is even acknowledged by the suspect for it.
** The whole episode is CMOF, even for those who have never seen ''Twin Peaks''.
--> "I loved Paula!" ''(lies down and caresses her earring while staring at it intensely)''
** Most of Shawn and Gus' dialogue, too, since they clearly only rolled into town to enjoy the cinnamon festival (they take their cinnamon ''very'' seriously) and just end up sucked into a veritable vortex of weirdness.
--> '''Randy:''' Who are you?
--> '''Shawn:''' A couple of guys with a passion for the truth.
--> '''Gus:''' And cinnamon.
*** And...
--> '''Shawn:''' We came to investigate, catch bad guys and eat pie.
--> '''Gus:''' Not necessarily in that order.
--> '''Shawn:''' And it hasn't been.
--> '''Gus:''' No.
--> '''Shawn:''' We started with the pie.
--> '''Gus:''' Always.
*** And of course:
--> '''Gus:''' "Worst cinnamon festival ever!"
* In "Ferry Tale", when Shawn and Gus come upon the tied-up guard, Shawn announces, with portentous gravitas, "This is a prison break!", you can distinctly see the (still tied) guard make a "well ''duh!''" expression.
* "One, Maybe Two, Ways Out": where after tracking down the elusive former spy Strobinski for the second time, they have the following conversation.
-->'''Strobinski''': ...could you take your shoes off? New place, [fancy name] carpets, they say its stain resistant but I don't trust them, I don't trust them at all... (Shawn and Gus begin to take off shoes), now while you're at it, in the next ten seconds why don't you tell me why you're here or else I'm gonna set you both on fire without even striking a match.
-->'''Shawn''': Whoa, easy buddy...
-->'''Strobinski''': Hey, I just moved in here. Come on! They've got a laundry, they've got an awesome pool! Well, it's not awesome, it's circular, you can't even swim laps in it, but it's a pool. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a body decoy that works? This one's too fat, this one's too skinny. This guy's just right, ''but he's an Eskimo''.
* Shawn recklessly triggers a hostage situation on a ferry by cutting the mooring line for the raft some escaping prisoners are using to flee. When Lassiter accurately blames "that jackass Spencer" for the hostage situation, Juliet says that whatever Shawn did, he must not have had any other choice. [[GilliganCut The scene cuts to Gus going over "choice 17" and asking why Shawn didn't just hide a GPS in the raft.]]
* Shawn asks the hostage-takers to show some good faith by releasing the women and children ... and the men too. No one is impressed by this bit of groveling.
* In "Romeo and Juliet and Juliet", where Gus steps up big time when Shawn tries to talk his way into a children's martial art class and the owner, not entirely unexpectedly, objects to this:
-->'''Shawn:''' That's what I call, uh...\\
'''Gus:''' Discrimination. And ageism.\\
'''Owner:''' Who are you?\\
'''Gus:''' [[BavarianFireDrill I'm his lawyer]].\\
'''Owner:''' You brought a lawyer?\\
'''Shawn:''' I keep a lawyer on retainer at all times; there is so much injustice in the world you practically can't leave the house without one. And apparently today it paid off.\\
'''Owner:''' Right. Ok, well I will see you in court then. Now--\\
'''Gus:''' Perfect. I'll need a statement from you, and since I intend to try this in both civil and criminal court, I'll need the police here as well. May I use your phone? Or do you only let the ''white people'' use that? ''[Even Shawn looks a bit taken aback by this sudden development]'' \\
'''Owner:''' Who said anything about white people?!\\
'''Gus:''' You just did.\\
'''Owner:''' The words 'white people' did not come out of my mouth.\\
'''Gus:''' There they are again. Luckily I had my hand recorder on for that one. ''[Produces a hand recorder]'' By the way, I am now disclosing this conversation is being recorded.\\
'''Owner:''' Recorded?! Okay, this is crazy!\\
'''Gus:''' Crazy? You wanna know crazy? I sued 300 businesses last year alone. I sued a hot dog cart and got everything but the wheels and the buns, which I won in the civil case two months later.\\
'''Shawn:''' Dude? ''[Shawn and Gus confer to one side]'' I think he gets it now.\\
'''Gus:''' I know. But the words are coming out of my mouth faster than I can think of them.\\
'''Shawn:''' Bring it home.\\
'''Gus:''' ''[To the owner]'' Now if you don't mind, before I start snapping evidence photos, I'm a little parched. ''[Turns to a pair of drinking fountains, one of which is clearly sized for children]'' Can you tell me which one of these fountains I'm ''allowed'' to use?\\
'''Owner''': That one. ''[Indicates the adult fountain]''\\
'''Gus''': ''DeathGlare''\\
'''Owner:''' ''[Frantic backtracking]'' I mean... you pick, sir.
* In "Extradition II: The Actual Extradition Part", Despereaux sneaks out of prison in the back of Shawn and Gus' car. When Gus objects, he nonchalantly mentions that that being the case he'd regrettably have to try out his new shiv on them - but assures Gus he would only cut him in a non-fatal, mostly painless way that would heal in weeks. The cheerfully friendly/smarmy way he says it is what sells it, and even Shawn gets into the act:
--> "Given the circumstances, that ''is'' pretty fair."
** This gem, when Despereaux wants to hire Shawn and Gus to prove his innocence [[spoiler: when a Crown Prosecutor is murdered during his time outside the prison when he was committing a robbery]]
--> '''Shawn''': Will you just be straight with us for once?
--> '''Despereaux''': I will be utterly transparent.
--> '''Shawn''': Who hired you for the job?
--> '''Despereaux''': I don't know.
--> '''Gus''': [[SarcasmMode Well, now we're getting somewhere.]]
* A small exchange between Shawn, Gus, and two counterparts of themselves as older people.
--> '''Everybody''': She's lying.
--> '''Shawn''': How'd you know she was lying?
--> '''Older duo''': She's a woman!
** Shawn, Gus, and their older counterparts are arguing about how to get into a guarded room. Shawn and the two older guys start coming up with increasingly absurd plans. Gus cuts in with [[CuttingTheKnot "Why don't we just go outside and look for an open window?"]]. GilliganCut to them doing exactly that.
* Lassiter's tap dancing.
** A major highlight is that it helps him with thinking when he does it, so at one point, he exclaims "I know who the Westside rapist is!" [[CrossesTheLineTwice He then remembers he's surrounded by children...]]
* Jules when Lassie's sister is filming an investigation:
-->'''Jules:''' Wow, I guess we know what the polar bear would do for a Klondike bar!...(beat)...I thought my character would have a joke...
* When Shawn is in the hospital after being poisoned, [[ComedicSociopathy no one seems to care, and make fun of him because he was "barely poisoned".]] Also, his dad [[AmusingInjuries rips out his IV.]]
* During an investigation that allegedly involves an alien abduction, Shawn and Gus turn to an old friend of theirs from grade school, who hacks into Lassiter's computer for them, and they look at his browser history:
--> '''Dennis:''' Let's see....[[BreadEggsMilkSquick GrenadeFancy.com, SquirrelAssassins.com and...that's gross.]]
--> '''Gus:''' That man needs Jesus.
* In "Chivalry Is not Dead, but Someone Is", Shawn hands the consummate gentleman an apology letter, which the man has to unfold/uncrumple.
-->'''Prescott''': 'Dear Prescott, I'm deeply sorry that I accused you of trying to kill me. Good day. I said 'good day, sir!' Signed, Shown Spencer.' You misspelled your name.\\
'''Shawn:''' I did that on purpose.\\
'''Prescott:''' No you didn't.\\
'''Shawn:''' You're right. I was in a hurry and I didn't have spell check.\\
'''Prescott:''' You need spell check for your own name?
* Pretty much everything Juliet does in "Dead Bear Walking". Acting nervous on camera, talking about "her character".
* After the emotionally draining events of the Season 5 finale, Lassiter remarks about how it would take more than that to effect him. However, as he's walking down the stairs alone after this declaration, he pauses and the audience is expecting him to show some kind of reaction to all the things that has happened thus far, but he just shakes his head a little and then goes on his way. The scene then changes to Shawn and Juliet having a touching moment alone in an unused interrogation room, ending with Shawn kissing Juliet's hand... and then the camera pans out and we see that Lassiter was watching from the other side of the mirror, completely shocked, and wanders away in a daze while scratching his head with what appears to be an empty coffee mug.
** Also in that episode, Juliet looks through Shawn's old record collection after he says two are missing.
-->'''Juliet:''' Are you sure?\\
'''Shawn:''' Of course I'm sure, they're clearly in order.\\
'''Juliet:''' Music/TearsForFears, Music/DepecheMode, Thompson Twins... what order are you using?\\
'''Shawn:''' Sweetness.\\
'''Juliet:''' Men Without Hats is sweeter than Ethyl and the Funny Men?\\
'''Yang:''' More importantly, where are Devo and The Talking Heads in all of this?

[[folder: Season 6]]
* In "This Episode Sucks", Shawn as [[Film/InterviewWithTheVampire the Vampire Lestat]] and Gus as Count Chocula... er, Blacula.
** From the same episode. Corey Feldman's cameo. He turns around in dramatic slow motion, and the background music immediately transitions into [[Film/TheLostBoys "Cry Little Sister"]].
** None of the guys [[HollywoodHomely believing a woman finds Lassiter attractive]] and everyone getting shocked by Henry revealing he watches ''Series/JerseyShore''.
** Gus getting excited when he and Shawn get to announce a vampire was the killer.
** Gus getting blood sprayed on him and going catatonic.
--> '''Juliet:''' Slap Gus as hard as you can and meet me at the hospital.
--> '''Shawn:''' Copy that. [takes position in front of Gus] Alright, listen up, buddy. This hurts me way more than it hurts you.
--> [Shawn winds up for a slap. Gus instinctively punches him in the chest, and Shawn keels over]
--> '''Henry:''' Welcome back, Guster.
*** Before that, Henry spends a few minutes flicking at Gus's face.
** Lassie reveals he managed to incapacitate the killer and avoid having his blood sucked because he has been [[CrazyPrepared building up a tolerance for chloroform over the last fifteen years]]. Gus doesn't believe it and tries the chloroform soaked cloth... only to pass out immediately.
--> '''Juliet:''' ...Oh, great. Now we have to carry ''two guys'' out of here.
** Upon hearing that one of Marlowe's roommates is called Lucien, everyone (including Juliet, the OnlySaneMan in the episode) asks "Where's Lucien" without missing a beat.
* "You kiss her, you die," from "Shawn and the Real Girl".
** BROS. BEFORE. [[LargeHam HOOOOOOS]]!
** "This is a taco-burrito conversation, [[IncrediblyLamePun nachos.]]"
* From "Dead Man's Curveball", Shawn sped up.
** During a police softball game, Shawn gets into a fight with the umpire (which is revealed to be Henry) due to Shawn costing the team a win. Henry then kicks him out of the game....even though it's already finished.
** The entirety of the Seabird baseball fight scene. [[https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwir69nlr_j2AhWygVwKHQvCDKwQwqsBegQIAhAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Ds7IRT3efXlo&usg=AOvVaw0rPCB0E-I5iYmxAW5CSqYH It has to be seen to be believed.]]
** Also from the same episode, Shawn stealing a guy's pants [[PottyFailure for a urine sample]]. Even funnier is the guy's reaction.
--> '''Izzy''': [[OhNoNotAgain Not again.....]]
* From "Indiana Shawn":
--> '''Shawn''': I think what this woman is trying to say here, Gus, is that you can suck it.
--> '''Woman''': No, no, I’m not saying that.
--> '''Shawn''': I’m paraphrasing.
--> '''Gus''': Do you even know what “paraphrase” means?
--> '''Shawn''': It means “suck it please, Gus.”
--> '''Gus''': It doesn’t mean “suck it please, Gus.”
** Shawn's response to seeing two thugs harassing a woman in an alleyway?
--> '''Shawn''': Hey you! [[Film/BackToTheFuture1 Get your damn hands off her!]]
--> '''Gus''': Really? You're quoting ''Back to the Future''?
** From the same episode we get this:
--> '''Gus''': You go on trip with the intention of proposing and don't tell me, your oldest and blackest friend?
** And a nice CallBack to "Polarizing Express":
-->'''Shawn''': What are you, my boss?
-->'''Gus''': I'm your conscience.
-->'''Shawn''': [[CallBack Tony Cox is my conscience.]]
-->'''Gus''' [[FlatWhat What?]]
** Shawn's utter failure in trying to be Franchise/IndianaJones.
** At one point, everyone believes Pierre Despereaux to be dead, and Shawn is called upon to deliver a eulogy. Things... get a bit emotional.
-->'''Shawn:''' This can't -- this can't be right. He's dead. He's... ah... I've never -- I've never lost anyone close to me before. In my entire life... How stupid sad is this? People die. It's awful. And unfair. And... and... ''Gus is going to die!''\\
'''Gus:''' I'm not going to die, Shawn.\\
'''Shawn:''' You are. Soon. Definitely before me if statistics prove correct. ''[Gus begins to look mournful]'' Which is so wrong, because I'm practically asking for it.\\
'''Gus:''' ''[sobs]'' People are going to miss me so much...\\
'''Shawn:''' My dad said this would happen. I guess I was wrong, and I should say that now because God knows your minutes are severely limited.\\
''[Shawn begins sobbing into the shoulder of the minister officiating the funeral]''
* In ''Film/TheShining'' parody episode, "Heeeeere's Lassie", Lassiter chases Gus around with a Saber and tries to do the famous door hacking scene but it barely makes a hole.
-->'''Lassiter''': You know, this might take a while so why don't you help a brother out and open the door?
** There's also the hilarity that Henry - the very reasonable, "everything has a logical explanation that you're just not seeing yet" Henry - being totally on board with the "Lassie's apartment is haunted" theory.
** After he hired them, within the first 5 minutes of arriving on Lassiter's floor, Shawn knocks on a door, revealing the CreepyTwins Lassiter saw were just his neighbors. Immediately after this:
--> '''Gus''': (To Lassiter)That'll be one thousand dollars.
* From "Shawn Rescues Darth Vader":
-->'''Gus:''' "That woman wears loyalty like a micro miniskirt."
-->'''Shawn:''' "[[FlatWhat What?]]"
-->'''Gus:''' "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint That woman wears loyalty like a mi-]]"
** Shawn's hilariously bad generic [[BriefAccentImitation imitation]] of a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent| s}}. [[http://youtu.be/RHOOP2HCYv0 "Where are your shoes?"]]
** And [[ShoutOut naming the media]] he got it from: ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'', ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', the gecko Geico commercials.
-->"Does Creator/RussellBrand count?"
** When told he doesn't know much about the UK, Shawn says he knows about [[FamousFamousFictional the good stuff]]: Music/{{Morrissey}}, Gwyneth Paltrow, ''{{Leprechaun}}s''.
** Gus not wanting to be [[PedoHunt caught alone with an eleven year old.]]
-->"Now get the hell out of my car!"
* "Last Night Gus":
** Shawn attempting to give a speech at the retirement party of a cop he didn't know.
** [[http://youtu.be/5AbLVdR4RE8 Gus freaking out after seeing his car messed up.]]
** Lassiter and Woody [[HoYay waking up together]]: "Nothing we did was wrong."
** "It's hard out there for a pimp."
** The assassination of [[CompanionCube Bobo]].
** [[CompanionCube "MY BABY!"]]
** "''You'' put some sunglasses ''on''!"
** [[spoiler: Leroy Jenkins]].
** [[spoiler: The gay bartenders]] driving Lassie's stolen car.
* Shawn getting {{mistaken for gay}} after [[AccidentalInnuendo unwittingly using double entendres]] and being very touchy-feely when speaking with a male cop, making him [[HoYay think he was being hit on.]]
** In the same episode, Shawn offends the officer when he mistakes the tattoo the guy has on his arm as a picture of a Bullmastiff. It's actually a picture of [[{{Gonk}} the guy's grandmother.]]
* In "Neil Simon's Lover's Retreat" when Juliet tells Shawn to stop acting like a child: "I'm not acting!"
** When Henry's StalkerWithACrush starts talking about [[MayDecemberRomance her love for]] {{Silver Fox}}es: "Terry Bradshaw, George Clooney, Dick Cheney."
* "True Grits" When Shawn declines to take on a case, saying that he and Gus are very busy, RevealShot shows they had just been playing Hungry, Hungry Hippos.
** Lassiter's personal list of enemies besides convicted criminals: "Internal Affairs, UNICEF, and Lance Bass. [[YouDoNotWantToKnow Don't ask.]]"
** When Juliet tells Shawn and Gus she was the one who put Thane behind bars, [[CringeComedy it gets really awkward]], and Gus runs away and drives off quickly in his car.
* "Let's Doo-Wop It Again"
** Marlowe decides to help Lassiter out on a case. She does so by punching him and getting dragged away screaming. And naturally, Lassiter is so proud of his girl and more in love with her than ever. That scene probably belongs under SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments and SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, too.
** This exchange after Deacon is shot:
-->'''Tony''': We find out who shot Deacon and-
-->'''Drake''': and then we kill him
-->'''Tony''': We bring him to justice. Man, what the hell is wrong with you?
* "Autopsy Turvy."
** During the official police meeting in the beginning of the episode, Shawn and Gus go into one of their diatribes about Haley Joel Osment and whether he was in The Country Bears. Surprisingly, of all the people present ''Lassiter'' - [[NotSoAboveItAll the last person you'd expect to watch a movie about talking bears - joins in knowing exactly which character Osment played, and he and Shawn walk out the meeting having a spirited conversation about Osment's career.]]
* A few in "Shawn Interrupted."
** Shawn, that's not the right plant. No, that's not it either. It's the one on the ''table'', Shawn.
** Ask my partner Gus! He's here too, dressed as an orderly named Suggs! He drives a blueberry! (Done while trying to convince orderlies he ''wasn't crazy''. It didn't help.)
** Fear of loud noises, fear of crowds, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking fear of saxophones.]]
** "Three Raspberry Razzmatazzes, and can you throw in a Sanity Boost for my friend over there?"
** This exchange early in the episode:
-->'''Shawn''': All I have to do is get Bethel in front of those cameras when he exposes himself.
-->'''Gus''': Right idea. [[LampshadedDoubleEntendre Wrong choice of words.]]
** The very end, when Lassiter and Juliet break in on a very strange scene. Gus is dancing to saxophone music, Bethel is rocking back and forth yelling to make it stop, his brother is trying to restrain him and fight Shawn at the same time. The look on Lassie's face says it all.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Season 7]]
* In "Juliet Takes a Luvvah" Shawn and Lassiter must act quick to avoid blowing Juliet's cover so Shawn throws his arms around Lassie and decides to act as a gay couple.
-->'''Lassie''': What are you doing get your meat hooks off of me.
-->'''Shawn''': Do you wanna blow her cover? Put your arms around me! Come on sell it! Rub my back at a medium pace.
-->'''Lassie''': You're an idiot.
-->'''Shawn''': Make it tender!
-->'''Lassie''': I'm ''being'' tender!
** In the same episode Shawn walks in on his parents making love. To say that he is scarred from the experience is an understatement.
** Shawn makes a ''Film/HerAlibi'' ShoutOut while accusing Gus’s new girlfriend Rachel of being the killer (with Gus also bemoaning him making such accusations again and Rachel having a DoubleTake that it has happened before). Gus fails to recognize the movie title, but Rachel does and, before revealing her ironclad alibi, rubs in how Shawn is referencing a movie with on Website/RottenTomatoes score of 15% (and for comparing Gus to the wrong character). Shawn weakly retorts it has an audience score of 38%.
* When trying to get at the body guard of Julian Drake, author of the book ''Feed Everyone''.
-->'''Drake''': You want this signed?
-->'''Shawn''': Yes, please.
-->'''Drake''': This isn't my book.
-->'''Shawn''': Oh really? My mistake.
-->'''Drake''': This is ''Everyone Poops''.
* "Lassie Jerky" is presented as FoundFootage, and every shot is depicted as coming from an in-universe camera. Near the end, Shawn has one of his memory flashbacks to a tattoo on one of the bodies Gus found earlier. At the end of the episode, when it's revealed that Shawn edited together everyone's footage to make the episode, Woody compliments him for [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall editing in part of Gus's footage from earlier for dramatic effect]].
** From the same episode: Lassie stepping on a beartrap and everything that follows.
-->'''Lassiter''': "I will not be toyed with!" '''*clank*'''
** The episode begins with Shawn luring Gus into the woods to participate in a sasquatch documentary [[SchmuckBait by claiming that they're going to a barbecue joint named "Sassy Quatch's" that's located in an isolated cave.]] Once Gus realizes he was tricked, Shawn points out how foolish it was of him not to pick up on the LazyAlias.
** When Gus learns that Shawn enrolled him in a college class so they can be eligible for a student video award, his first reaction is to worry that he's missing a midterm by being out in the woods.
** The gang stumbles across a cooking fire and believes that the meat [[ImAHumanitarian comes from Lassie.]] [[CrossesTheLineTwice Shawn reluctantly comments about how delicious the meat smells, and Gus eats a piece of it before finding out that Lassiter is still alive.]]
** When they contemplate having to fight the Serbians, Lassiter says everyone's going to have to fight. AllWomenAreLustful Kate says, "I'm more of a lover than a fighter."
-->'''''Everyone'' Else''': WE KNOW.
* "No Country For Two Old Men" is particularly funny when you consider that Creator/JamesRodayRodriguez is part Hispanic.
* In "Juliet Wears the Pantsuit," she mocks a shirt Shawn gave her that has the word "Fashion" in bold letters on the front. Later, she has all her clothes stolen...except that shirt. Finally, when the outfit she was wearing is ruined, she is forced to wear that shirt to work the next day. Everyone's reactions really sell the entire thing.
* "Office Space":
** Gus's "tampering" with the crime scene. EpicFail doesn't ''begin'' to describe it.
*** Shawn helped...
** Shawn praises Gus for standing up to his {{Jerkass}} boss and quitting. A freaked-out Gus says that it was a rash and stupid decision to make, as now he won't be able to pay his own bills, the agency's bills, or (most importantly, in Shawn's eyes) Shawn's personal bills. [[HypocriticalHumor Shawn instantly goes from praising Gus to calling him a selfish bastard.]]
** Shawn and Gus showing up at Henry's door to beg for his help fixing a mistake (specifically, leaving their DNA all over a crime scene) has to be seen to be believed.
** Gus' [[LargeHam hammy]] BadBadActing when arriving at the crime scene the next morning after the aforementioned "tampering."
--> '''Gus:''' "What? Dorian Creech is dead? Oh, no. Oh, no! Oh, n-- no."
--> '''Jules:''' You knew this man?"
--> '''Gus:''' Of course. Dorian Creech. I work here."
--> '''Jules:''' You still work here?
--> '''Gus:''' Life is so fleeting. One day you see a man alive, yesterday. [[BlatantLies And then today, without seeing him at all in between, he's dead.]] Hark the herald angels."
** "Oh, my God... are you carrying Spencer's unborn demon-seed?"
** This exchange:
--> '''Jules:''' "Tell me this hasn't gotten any further out of control."
--> '''Shawn:''' "Of course not!"
--> '''Jules:''' "Are you being honest?"
--> '''Shawn:''' (looks over to where [[spoiler: Woody the Coroner is tied up on their couch]]) "...No."
** Woody telling Shawn that he can't keep his secret:
--> '''Woody:''' "I can't be trusted! I'll tell anyone! I've already got my phone out!"
--> '''Shawn:''' "Woody, you're calling ME!"
--> '''Woody:''' "Don't answer it!"
** When Jules discovers [[spoiler: Woody tied up on Shawn's couch]] she angrily declares that this has gone far enough and she's setting him free. She pulls out his gag and rips the tape off:
--> '''[[spoiler: Woody]]:''' "I will sing like a canary to anyone who will listen."
--> '''Jules:''' *slaps the tape back on*
* Lassiter's wedding. Oh my god. First, it turns out that the accountant he's been chasing is a licensed justice of the peace ("Fortuitous."), then the wedding gets crashed by gun-toting mobsters. Not only does the groom pull a gun from an ankle holster, but so does one of the bridesmaids (Juliet), and ''the wedding band'' (cops, all of them). Then the mob boss decides to run, and gets run down by [=McNabb=]... not wearing any pants (he's moonlighting as a stripper).
-->'''Shawn:''' ... that's happening.
** Then there's the fact that the run up to the wedding itself involves an epic hallway fight, a kidnapping, a transgender stripper, and a botched prisoner swap.
* Lassiter admits that the closest thing he has to a high school buddy is the only other member of the Anti-Glee club to show up for meetings.
* "Turn Right of Left For Dead:" After Jules finds out Shawn's secret and dumps him, Shawn grows so depressed that he somehow ends up in a [[Literature/TheMillenniumTrilogy Swedish murder mystery, chasing a girl with serious daddy issues]]...
** Shawn names alt!Lassiter's dog "Lassiter Jr, [[ShoutOut Lassie]] for short."
* "The Santa Barbarian Candidate"
** Lassiter's horror at the possibility of Shawn becoming mayor and having authority over the police department causes him to briefly contemplate assassinating Shawn. Shortly afterward, Shawn half-seriously vows to fire Lassiter if elected mayor after the detective snaps at him in front of reporters.
** Shawn doesn't properly prepare for his first media interview and nervously devolves into nonsensical ramblings about black jellybeans, using jiu-jitsu against invaders from the north and the west, and ''Film/AlongCamePolly.'' In the next scene, Gus is chewing out Shawn for how ridiculous and alienating he was when they get a call from [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Woody,]] who praises Shawn as the first candidate to discuss the issues that he cares about.
** When Shawn gives his usual deduction at a town meeting, he takes the mic from a woman complaining about the fine for not picking up your dog's poop and interrupts Shawn for a bit. Once the culprit is arrested, Shawn gives the mic back to "the crazy poop lady".
* "YOU SAID IT WAS CAKE MIX!"
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Season 8]]
* After 7 seasons of being silent, the last segment of the opening titles has sound - namely, Gus running away from a hole while screaming in terror. It is rather jarring, especially given the lack of context (which we only find out about in the last episode).
* "Lock, Stock, Some Smoking Barrels and Burton Guster's Goblet of Fire":
** Just....the entire episode, being a parody of Film/LockStockAndTwoSmokingBarrels, is enough to have you in stitches.
** Gus's reasons for tagging along? He wanted to head to Pottercon.
** Shawn and Gus get held up at the airport because Gus brought along Harry Potter memorabilia (A wand with a phoenix feather, a broomstick, and potions), which attracts the eye of airport security. Gus then unintentionally proceeds to insult the TSA officer (for not being familiar with Harry Potter and for not ''successfully opening a book.''). The nail in the coffin which causes their bags to be removed from the plane? Gus diving for his potions.
** Gus leaving the surveillance van after spotting who he thinks is Rupert Grint. It turns out it was Prince Harry.
** Shawn attempting to recruit Gus for the heist. His tactics resort to him using a cockney accent (going Film/SexyBeast on him) and pestering him endlessly, stomping around him while saying "Yes!" over and over again.
*** The best bit? The rest of the criminal gang see this happening and actually believes that it's understandable behaviour!
*** And Gus’s criminal monicker? [[ToiletHumor The Whiz.]] Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeah.
** Seeing the normally suave Despereaux getting annoyed at Shawn's antics.
** Gus tries to use the “You heard about Pluto?” pickup line on the receptionist……only for Shawn to say nope and drag him away, interrupting him. One wonders if he had just about had enough.
** Despereaux ordering Shawn not to speak during the meeting with Ives, which ends up evolving into [[AintTooProudToBeg begging and pleading.]]
* In "S.E.I.Z.E. the Day", Shawn theorizes that the killer is going after [[AssholeVictim a-holes]], he then suddenly says someone is in very grave danger. He pulls out his cell-phone and calls his dad to "warn" him.
** Juliet congratulating Lassiter on [[spoiler:his wife's pregnancy]]. She jumps up and down and squeals a little while hugging him with one arm... because her free arm is training her gun on a suspect, as is Lassiter's. They share a happy moment, then simultaneously snap back into serious mode and focus all their attention on the suspect.
* In "Cog Blocked," the murder victim is eerily similar to Gus, who finds himself desperately insisting that this man would have never committed suicide and had everything to live for, [[FreudianSlip saying "I" instead of "he" by accident a couple of times.]] It's a little sad, but that doesn't keep it from being hilarious.
* Juliet and Lassiter cook up a scheme to sneak Juliet into the hostage situation and rescue Woody in "Somebody's Got Woody", in which Juliet pretends to be Woody's daughter (he does have an estranged daughter). Woody and Juliet, wrists taped together in makeshift handcuffs, awkwardly hug, and Woody... does a Woody.
-->'''Woody:''' Look, if I in any way led you to believe I'm your father...
** Then Woody tries to Yes-And Juliet through a conversation and they both have to admit they're terrible at improve ''5 inches away from the hostage taker''.
** Holy shit, that flash cut.
-->'''Woody:''' So, anyway, that's condoms.\\
'''Juliet:''' I don't even know ''how'' we got on this topic but I am ''way'' past the birds and the bees.
* "1967: A Psych Odyssey": After Lassiter [[spoiler:gets promoted to Chief]], Juliet badgers him into sitting down at his desk and pretending to answer the phone [[spoiler:as "Chief Lassiter"]]. And when he finally does it, she ''squeals''.
** From the beginning of the episode, when Shawn, Gus, Lassiter, and Juliet are talking about why they're there.
--> '''Lassiter:''' God. Please let it not be Trout. Amen.
--> '''Everyone else:''' Amen.
** Also Lasiter trying to get a drink of the mayor's lemon water.
* "Shawn and Gus Truck Things Up": Shawn and Gus reminisce about eating tacos from their favorite taco stand. This scene shows them eating the tacos while frolicking through a field of flowers, riding a bike, and getting massages.
** Lassiter has declared war on food trucks. "Food trucks are unsanitary, unnecessary, and borderline anarchist. They're like UsefulNotes/{{Caligula}}, with a little less fornication."
** Shawn and Gus trying to give Lassiter and Marlowe advice on babies they learned from various movies. That includes Gus telling them that, if the baby has "Beelzebub eyes", they should "think about what's best for the world". Lassie's not amused by that comment.
** Gus [[EpicFail trying to]] park where the other food trucks are and accidentally running over Mauricio's shrine. And failing when trying to rush to the hospital in the truck.
** Gus still hasn't forgiven Shawn for [[MySisterIsOffLimits sleeping with Joy]].
-->'''Gus:''' "The house that my mother and father were arrested in? The house where my father was hiding in the basement while my mother was out betting on horses? The house where you slept with my sister?"
-->'''Shawn:''' "That did not happen in the house."
-->'''Gus:''' "You slept with my sister, Shawn."
-->'''Shawn:''' "We didn't really sleep, Gus. Why do you do this to yourself? [[NeverLiveItDown Why do you always bring this up]] when you know it upsets you? I can't change the past, and I wouldn't, because it was great. You should be proud of her!"
** Lassiter is very bad at taking care of his practice baby.
** Gus getting mad when he realizes Shawn stole a bunch of his toys when they were children. And later taking his toy back from the baby.
** "Hey, Vito ... Kill anybody lately?"
** Shawn and Gus' food truck makes no money because they keep eating their own food and food they make is [[CordonBleughChef very unusual.]]
** The [[ScreamingBirth labor/birth]] [[MoodWhiplash scene]]
** Shawn complains about not being allowed to jump on the bed or climb out of the window, and Henry tells him to just let it go. As soon as he leaves the room, Shawn jumps on the bed, and ends up and damaging the wall, escaping by climbing out of the window.
* In "A Touch of Sweevil", Lassie actually ''encourages'' Shawn and Gus to take their psychic act up to eleven (then ''Fifteen'') in hopes that the two of them will scare off the seemingly wholesome new Head Detective that the Mayor is forcing him to hire. His utter glee at the ensuing insanity is hilarious to watch. [[spoiler:His strategy ultimately backfires - the new Head Detective turns out to be even ''wackier'' than Shawn, and his tolerance for Shawn's antics just convinces her that she's in the right place.]]
** Plus we have the she is more or less [[spoiler:a female Lassie. Lassie's face just lights up as he realizes this, while Gus and Shawn are just disturbed to have to deal with 2 Lassies now]]
** When Gus kicks in the door in the men's room to try and find Hazel, we hear a man protesting. Shawn says "Must be European". Gus is confused. My guess? The man was uncircumcised.
* The last scene in which Shawn's proposal is interrupted by him talking to Gus and, at the very end, someone steals the ring and runs off with it.
** Gus [[spoiler: quits his job to be with Shawn in San Fran]] we see a montage of him going back and forth, each more embarrassing than the last, in the end he admits he did this ''12 times''

[[folder: General/Multiple]]
* In the Bloopers of season one, whenever Shawn or Gus would mess, up they would flail their arms, fake scream/cry, and run away. It's a lot funnier than it sounds.
* Whenever someone mistakes Gus for Bud from ''Series/TheCosbyShow''.
* Most of the [[HilariousOuttakes "Psych-outs"]]. Timothy Omundson ([[TheComicallySerious Lassiter]]) likes having fun with these, by engaging in rampant {{Out Of Character Moment}}s, such as "I overshot my maaark!", and imitating Creator/MichaelCaine.
** "[[ProductPlacement Axe.]] [[http://youtu.be/v-uP9KUUJMc?t=1m20s Even the bees can't get enough.]]"
** Shawn and Gus serenade to Juliet who is wearing a ridiculous costume:
-->'''Boys''': "Let me lick you up and down, 'til you say stop ..."
-->'''Juliet''': "Stop."
-->'''Boys''': "Let me play with your body, baby, make you real hot ..."
-->'''Juliet''': "No."
* Gus' lame pickup line: "You hear [[PlutoIsExpendable what happened to Pluto?]] That's messed up." It's referenced by Shawn a few seasons later.
** Used again by Gus in "Psych the Musical"
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NPoM4p34Kg Kirsten Nelson singing "No Scrubs" in a Psych-out, completely without explanation or context.]]
* Some of the commercial bumpers for the Psych Slumber Party:
** Shawn trying to pull two classic sleeping pranks on Gus... while he's still awake.
** Lassie arrives at the slumber party after the others try to pull crank calls on him, and is dared to do one himself. He does so... [[OhCrap only to realize he's trying to prank call Chief Vick]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsJjVxhW7wc&ab_channel=Peacock The Psych cast's parody of "Somebody's Watching Me"]]

[[folder: Psych The Movie]]
* The reveal that after all this time, Shawn is still looking for the engagement ring that was stolen from him mid proposal.
* At a planetarium party, Gus encounters a woman in a "Nine Planet Solar System" T-shirt and prepares to start flirting with her, only to be shocked when ''she'' starts flirting with ''him'' instead. But the kicker is when he introduces himself and Shawn:
-->'''Gus:''' Hello, I'm Burton Guster and [[RunningGag this is my partner, White Privilege.]]\\
'''Shawn:''' [[LampshadeHanging Hey]], [[BorrowedCatchphrase that's my bit.]]
** And don't forget Gus flipping his words when invited to look at the telescope:
-->'''Gus:''' [[CannotTalkToWomen I was hoping you'd never ask.]]
-->'''Shawn:''' [[LampshadeHanging That...that came out wrong.]]
* TheStinger: Juliet's brother, Ewan, comes back and is still in trouble with the government.
* The tie-in short ''Shawn and Gus Get Back in Shape'' has the guys getting back in ''psych'' shape. They have to practice their one liners and character tics. "I've heard it multiple ways." "Come ''on'' son?"
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Psych 2: Lassie Come Home]]
* Someone has turned the old Psych office into a cat café. Gus thinks the cats are the customers.
* Shawn and Gus try to prove that a comatose patient is faking by tickling his foot. However, the action and framing [[MistakenForMasturbating makes it look like Gus is having a very]] ''[[MistakenForMasturbating vigorous]]'' [[MistakenForMasturbating date with rosie palms]].
* Gus gets a phone call from his girlfriend while using the urinal but due to said phone malfunctioning, he can't hang up. And then it '''takes a picture of the guy's genitals beside him.''' '''Twice'''. And as Gus attempts to delete it, the phone then '''posts both photos on Twitter'''. '''And retweets it multiple times.''' Gus flees the bathroom as the guy pulls out a knife and starts to give chase.
* Henry and Shawn have a heart to heart about fatherhood that ends this way.
-->'''Shawn:''' This is uncomfortable and weird.\\
'''Henry:''' Yeah.
* Our heroes have figured out most of the plot and are confronting one of the culprits. Unfortunately, they don't understand a word about the plot he's revealing because he keeps speaking to them in Norwegian.
** Then during the confrontation, Shawn tells Juliet he's not ready to be a father. Jules is confused, Gus tries to protect the so called Shules baby, and the culprit is exasperated and wondering why are they having this kind of conversation right now. Suddenly, Selene speaks up and reveals that the pregnancy test Shawn found earlier was hers, prompting Gus to faint.
* Just like the proposal in the series finale, Shawn ends up interrupting Selene's proposal to Gus.
* One final reveal.
-->'''Selene:''' Just one final detail to take care of. I'm still married.\\
'''Gus:''' What?!
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Psych 3: This Is Gus]]
* Shawn tries helping Lassiter break down a major case by talking through an ear piece, but the break down goes off the rails as he and Gus get into an argument while Gus is ordering their lunch.
* Apparently Gus has been asking [[Music/TearsForFears Curt Smith]] to perform at his ShotgunWedding often enough that Curt has his ringtone set as a ''warning'' for when Gus's phone calls him.
