THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MIRA (#2_2012)
EPISODE PREMIERE: January 11, 2008

Back at the Psych office, Shawn tells Gus that he thinks Mira made Jann up and asks Gus about the pill bottle he saw.  Gus tells him that medication is for anti-anxiety but can also be used to treat psychosis.  Shawn and Gus meet the Gaffneys at the police station and just as he tells everyone Jann doesn't exist, Jann himself shows up looking for Mira.  He explains he was called away on business before the wedding and couldn't make it back on time.  Now, technically their case is solved but Shawn knows there's something weird going on and goes to Jann's hotel to further investigate.  However, Mira is there alone and Shawn confronts her on the photos he knows are fake.  She confesses that she only recently met Jann, but after her whirlwind wedding to Gus, she didn't want her parents to think she was jumping into marriage again.  So Jann suggested they fake photos to make her parents think they were together longer.  Shawn and Gus track down Jann at the golf course and observe him having a clandestine argument with the private eye that was following them earlier, Mace Rhoden.  They confront Jann who tells them that his fight with Rhoden was related to expenses from tracking Gus down.  He was the one that hired the P.I.  Also, Shawn gets him to confess that he wasn't away on business when he missed the wedding.  He was in another relationship before he met Mira and he was putting an end to it for good.  He knows Mira is the best thing that's ever happened to him and he doesn't want to lose that.

Lassiter and Juliet take turns interrogating an informant for information on the refrigeration truck.  They compete to see who can get the information first.  The informant ends up telling both of them that no one is trying to sell the truck, so the thief must need to use it for something.  McNab tells them that the Chief needs them, and they run out to meet Shawn and Gus at Jann's hotel – only to find him murdered in his room.  Shawn suspects Mace Rhoden is responsible and wants to talk to the police, but Gus knows Mira will be upset and goes to the winery to comfort her.  When he gets there, he and Mira discover signs of a break in.  Someone is trying to steal the private wine collection.  And that someone pulls a gun on them.

At the police station, Shawn is about to tell the cops about his theory on the murder when McNab comes in with fingerprint results off the gold lighter that was left at the scene of the refrigeration truck robbery.  They belong to a man with several aliases, one being, Shawn guesses, Mace Rhoden.  Shawn remembers Mace had a gold lighter and confirms the stolen truck was yellow.  Gus is in danger and as they race to the winery, Shawn tells Lassiter and Juliet that he was right about Jann not existing.  He's a con man working with Rhoden who was pulling a long con on Mira.  They needed a way to get the whole family out of the winery so they could steal the expensive wines and needed the refrigeration truck to transport it.  But Jann really fell for Mira and backed out on the deal.  Mace killed him and is at the winery now stealing the wine before it gets transported to Napa the next day.  When they heroically arrive at the winery, they find Mace already unconscious on the floor and Gus and Mira safe and sound.  Shawn gives an elaborate explanation of how Gus saved the day, impressing both the cops and the Gaffneys.  In reality, Mace's lighter set the sprinklers off and he slipped and knocked himself out.  Gus then accidentally knocked Mira over on his way to escape, so she doesn't remember any of it.  With the case solved and everyone safe, there's only one problem left – an appreciative Hurricane Mira back in Gus' life.
