    What was this episode even?

    Why did the show suddenly start adding guerilla advertisments in their episodes? It just keeps growing each episode and this would be the first one I just backed off because of it. What's up with good shows selling out like that?

    • Trivia
      The part of the eccentric Dr. Reidman was written with Crispin Glover in mind. Glover himself was offered the role, but turned it down.
    • Goofs
      At the beginning, Shawn and Gus are walking along the beach, and Juliet shows up. She complains of an odd smell, and Shawn throw his corn nuts (the source of the smell) behind him. Later, in the hospital, Gus finds the corn nuts in Shawn's sweatshirt while wearing the hazmat suits. Unless it's assumed Shawn picked them up, or got new corn nuts, they shouldn't have ended up in his sweatshirt pocket. Sean throws his burrito not the corn nuts. This is incorrectly regarded as a goof.
    • Quotes

      Carlton Lassiter: [Lassiter, Donny, Shawn, Gus and Juliet are all being showered in the parking lot] I mean is this really necessary? I didn't even go inside the cafe.

      Donny Leberman: Oh it's necessary. Yeah, the CDC doesn't want to take any chances.

      Carlton Lassiter: For the last time, who the hell is this?

      Donny Leberman: Oh, I'm Donny Leberman. Hey, I'm the guy who screwed all this up.

      Carlton Lassiter: I'm not big on nude handshakes.

      Juliet O'Hara: They're probably just being safe, Carlton.

      [Hit by a hose]

      Juliet O'Hara: Ooh, that tickles.

      Carlton Lassiter: Spencer, are you shampooing your hair?

      Shawn Spencer: Yes I am, Lassie. I always travel with a small packet of Johnson and Johnson's baby shampoo in my wallet.

      Juliet O'Hara: Baby shampoo?

      Shawn Spencer: No more tears, Jules.

      Carlton Lassiter: [Getting scrubbed down] Whoa, take it easy, slugger, what are we dating?

      Burton 'Gus' Guster: I can't believe this, Shawn. First, we're looking for a prostitute, now I'm naked in a parking lot.

      Shawn Spencer: It's just like our prom night.

      Burton 'Gus' Guster: Shawn.

      Shawn Spencer: Gus, relax. Don't be Nick Cage's accent from "Con Air." We've bathed together before.

      Burton 'Gus' Guster: When we were three.

      Shawn Spencer: It's essentially the same thing. It's just impolite to pee.

      [to the person scrubbing him down]

      Shawn Spencer: That feels great by the way.
