It's just Psych being Psych. I wasn't going to write a review, but I really just had to put down...that as I watch this episode for what must be the 6th time or so... Maggie Lawson's inability to act very well seems pretty damn apparent in this episode. Her delivery of lines is just unconvincing and strained. And it isn't that her acting in this episode is necessarily glaring more than others...I just happened to really see it in a handful of scenes in this episode. And I'm not sure what I dislike more..Kirsten Nelson as an actor...or the Chief character. They are both pretty terrible.
Even with those annoying parts, the episode is still great. It being a great episode is memorable, and the bad acting/annoying characters don't overshadow the Gus/Shawn/Henry fun on display here. Sometimes the bad stuff can ruin the good stuff...but in this episode, the good stuff makes ignoring the bad stuff easy. (I think this is the only user review for this episode...which I was not expecting.)
