However, in his review for TV Squad, writer Richard Keller praised the episode, calling it "a very good episode for both James Roday and Dule Hill". He stated that he "really liked this week's episode", and that "After testing the waters in the first two programs both Shawn and Gus really did some heavy detective work this episode". He also praised the rotating of Shawn's abilities, saying that "it showed that "Psych" could be more than just a one trick pony". He compared Roday to Ben Stiller, and called the scene involving Gus after the bachelorette party the best of the episode. Keller declared that ""Psych" is finally settling into its niche and, hopefully, will only get stronger from here".
