I really enjoy the entire prmise of this episode, with Shawn and Gus being forced to become police officers, and them now actually having some police training and experience. I also like the character arc the trainer has, and how Lassie and him have a plot against each other for a bit. And seeing the trainer finally step up and take the shot at the end was very much like Shawn in the season 4 episode he gets kidnapped. Overall, I really do feel this episode is one of those episodes that help really show what the show is capable of when you let them tackle some serious subjects, such as Juliet being the one to suggest he gets the training, because she is scared for his safety and everything.
