A Psych-O's Second Reaction to '100 Clues' part one

I said yesterday I'd do a reaction blogpost and I didn't even start it. So I just bought the episode off iTunes, I'll watch it again and tell you my second reaction and how I actually reacted the first time around. 

I voted for the Butler and the Author in the end, you'll find out what I got. When I get enough iTunes money, I'll buy the season pass, even though I don't want it for the second ending. 
Now, on with the 'show'. 

*I'll be doing as I would if I saw it on TV, and if they have a commercial break.*

It starts with a flashback, a 2007 flashback (kinda hoping for a little Shawn and Gus flashback but I'm happy with a flashback nonetheless.) Shawn and Gus are dressed as 'groupies' of the band. 

*Just an FYI, this is BEYOND difficult if you don't start at an even time.* 

Henry comes in at a random time, dressed like an obsessed fan of Billy Lipps. Gus and Shawn explain why they are actually at the concert, the cold-case that was reopened to investigate the case of Billy's ex that was murdered. 

Lassiter has walked in with Billy's autobiography, written by Martin Kahn (Christopher Lloyd, original played Professor Plum in Clue). I find that cool because Martin is for Martin Mull and Kahn is for Madeline Kahn who I'm going to guess was everyone's favorite character. I do love Mrs. White!

This case is supposed to be Psych's 'third case' that was never talked about. So I'm going to guess it was before Juliet arrive but after Lassiter's former partner was transformed. Shawn was having trouble remembering their names (Chief Dick instead of Chief Vick and he was unsure of Lassiter's name). 

Now present day with Shawn and Juliet at the Psych office, talking about dinner. I guess a week in their new place isn't filled to the roof with food yet. SINGING TELEGRAM GIRL arrives to the scene.

CLUE reference - 1

Anyone else expecting the SINGING TELEGRAM GIRL to get shot randomly? 

Shawn and Juliet plan on going to the party but she gets a call from Lassiter, so he takes Gus instead. Random singing and dancing from the best psychic detectives :) I love them dancing and singing, too amazing them. 

To the mansion they go and guess what? It only took three weeks to get the BLUEBERRY BACK!! 

CLUE reference - 2, it's raining ;)

PINEAPPLE! Shawn rings the doorbell and its a female scream, so he presses it again. They laugh, who wouldn't? 

We meet Clizsby (?) played by Garrett Morris. CLUE reference - 3, the butler puts cell phones away in a cabinet, just like the weapons in Clue. 

Shawn finds his first clue, a red feather. That's important. Gus exclaims! What a shock, he's...scared of toupees but loves chocolate. That leads to the scream doorbell and 'Let's all do the chocolate dance' segment! We met Lesley played by Lesley Ann Warren, Miss Scarlett. She has a stuttering problem which kinda annoys me. Another round of screaming doorbells. We meet Harry played by Martin Mull, an old drunk. And I mean a drunk! You can't understand him. Yet another screaming doorbell. Hello Martin Kahn. 

*This is the first time Christopher and Lesley have seen each other since Clue which was 1985 which Lesley and Martin did Richie Rich's Christmas Wish together.*

CLUE reference - 3, 'We've only just met.' - Shawn :)Shawn figured out the host within seconds - Billy Lipps. 

CLUE reference - 4, empty seat 

Dancing with the Star reference too - poor blonde haired Derek Hough but he's smoking hot! 

CLUE reference - 5 and 6, lights went out and first 'body' is dead. Say hello to Mr. Boddy for a moment ;)

Okay, let's just talk about the intro! It's the cards like in the end of CLUE!! Reference number 7! And at the end, it says PSYCH 100 :D 

Harry is...dead *GASP*. Or is he? Is he going to be like Mr. Boddy?

CLUE reference - 8, RUNNING UP THE STAIRS! 

Haha The cell phones are gone *GASP*. 

CLUE reference - 9, animal outside, like the dogs but this time a panther? 

CLUE reference - 10, Flames? Good one Lesley!

CLUE reference - 11, splitting up time!

Just an FYI, this will be part one of ???, because it is actually more difficult to do when you don't have the correct timing. So here the beginning of the episode that I've been promising for weeks!

My bad!
