Shawn immediately assumed it was Juliet’s test and started wondering if he was ready to be a father.
Of course, they both said yes.
It gives them somewhere even more so to go," Hill tells EW regarding the big reveal.

“We ended up pivoting and shifting gears to like, ‘Well, what about Gus?’
I think Shawn says it really well at some point in the movie.
You’re 100 percent dad material.'
Once we started talking about that, it was like we actually could do this to Gus.
After the initial shock, you kind of realize that’s really kind of perfect for him.
Adds Franks: “When Shawn moves forward in life, he takes the smallest step possible.
So the fact that we ended the last movie with them getting engaged, what has happened since then?
Almost nothing, but Shawn really wants to.
He wants to grow up.
Furthermore, turning Gus into a father sets up more conflict for future films.
It’s too much fun and such a fun way to go out.”
That said, Gus and Selene’s ending isn’t without its complications.
Franks and Rodriguez couldn’t resist repeating history in a way.
They’re always just little annoyances.
And then I really love the idea of, oh my gosh, who’s her husband?
Who can we cast?
And that became James' and my favorite game on the set.”
“So I think down the road, I certainly would entertain that.
They seem to find that as their comfort zone as well.”
Psych 2: Lassie Come Homeis available to stream now on Peacock.
