The second time Shawn ends up throwing it through Henry’s trucks window, because Henry told him to try something new. Present day, the department’s softball team just won a game. Shawn tells them all about his mental block in his game of throwing over 1st base. When the people come with Gus’s food Shawn is angry because he never got his pizza chilly cheese fries. When he is talking to the manager he sees a guy with a gun. He goes and tells Lassie but then they bring out the cake for Buzz’s birthday. At the end of the song Shawn finally tells Lassie and Lassie takes out two guns and starts shooting rounds. The guy then escapes. When the chief gets down there Lassie thinks it is armed robbery but Shawn realizes it wasn’t armed robbery, the man was there to kill one of them. Shawn and Gus go back to the restaurant and realize that the shooter was targeting Lassie. They call Jules and confirm that the found motel room key was a dummy lead. When Shawn calls Lassie to warn him that someone is trying to kill him Lassie bends down to get his phone. When he does someone shoots at his car. He is mad because he just got it back from the shop. Shawn evidentially saved Lassie’s life. Back at the station Lassie is put under 24 hour guard in the station. When Shawn, Gus and Jules look over all of Lassie’s old files Lassie keeps talking to them so the go to the psych office. At the office Shawn realizes that Ivan Petrovich just got out of jail and was the one after Lassie. Shawn and Gus were listed on the case for some reason and got paid. Shawn had lost the cordless phone again so they couldn’t order pizza. Jules had to leave because she had to tell the chief. When she does Lassie tells her Buzz helped him work the case too. When Jules goes to check on Buzz his mailbox explodes when he turns the key and shoots him into the pool. They then realize that Petrovich is targeting all of the people on the file. Jules calls Gus but wasn’t able to get a hold of Shawn. When Gus goes to the office he finds Shawn on the elliptical. When he asks what Shawn is doing Shawn shows him the water bottle that says if your heart rate drops below 150 you die. There is also a flashing orange light under the elliptical. Gus had called the bomb squad. When Jules got there they showed her the note. She told them she wrote it to motivate Shawn. Then they ask about the beeping orange light and it turns out to be the cordless phone. Gus then tells Jules that they are idiots. Back at the station Shawn and Gus are being all aware of their surroundings making sure nothing tries to blow them up. Inside the chief is putting Lassie back on the case. Shawn realizes that where Petrovich used to do his drug dealing has a secret room. Shawn finds it and Lassie shoots Petrovich. Later they find out Petrovich had already been dead for 2 hours. Shawn realizes that the kid who overdosed father was the one who killed Petrovich. When Shawn remembers that it is the anniversary of the kid’s death he knows where Lassie is. He saves Lassie but then breaks the cordless phone that he had in his pocket. In the end Shawn gets over his mental block of over throwing 1st base but then has a hitting mental block.
