EPISODE

11. He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, He Loves Me, Oops, He's Dead

Vick wants Lassiter to take a case that he really doesn't want to. He looks up and sees Shawn and Gus putting on a psychic show for the other officers and gets an idea. He calls them over and says he's got a case for them. He hands Shawn the case file and tells him the victim is waiting to give a statement. As they walk into the interrogation room, they find a fully unclothed man, Fred Turk. With Lassiter happily watching through the one-way glass, Shawn and Gus proceed to give a very uncomfortable interview in which Turk claims he was abducted by aliens. As Turk tells them he woke up naked in a field with a headache, Shawn spots a faded ink mark on the guy's hand and chafe marks on the back of his heels.

Plot summary

Detective Lassiter gives Shawn and Gus a case involving a man who believes he was abducted by aliens. Shawn discovers clues from the man to prove that the man was not abducted, but was drugged and likely robbed. When Shawn goes to where the man says he woke up, the police are already there with another man, in the same situation. Shortly afterwards, the police discover another man in the same place, but this time, the victim is dead. A lead takes Shawn to an Irish-themed pub, where speed-dating is held. To get more information, Shawn, Gus, and several detectives go undercover in the speed dating event. They discover several suspects, but none could have been the perpetrator. Police arrest the man running the event, who Shawn realizes is the actual criminal, as well as his wife, who is disguised as one of the speed daters.
