I thought it was kind of weird that Shawn was worried about money all of the sudden and I felt like Gus would tell on him to Juliet.

Juliet hesitated in calling her boyfriend when the time on the display of her phone read 10:03am remembering that Miami was three hours ahead. She decided to text him instead when her phone started vibrating and FaceTime ring started.
"Hey," she answered, happy to see his face. "I was just going to call you."
"We're connected, Jules," he replied and blew her a kiss.
She giggled, "so Gus texted me last night. He said you're worried about making money and you keep trying to find another job?"
"Do you know how hard it is?" He asked, "I was a bartender for about 5 minutes last night. But then I got fired."
"Shawn," she sat back on the couch, "why do you think you need to make more money?"
"My father brought it to my attention that I am a leech," he ran a hand through his already messy hair, "he paid for my motorcycle insurance, you pay the rent and everything, Gus pays for a lot. I don't contribute."
"Yes you do. Trout made it hard by not hiring you but you do contribute," she insisted, "maybe you and Gus could come up with a way to get more private cases."
"How do I contribute?" He asked, not letting her get past that.
She smiled softly at him. "You buy dinner sometimes. You bought me that dress. And you also do things for me that show me you care. You make dinner, you help with the laundry, you try really hard not to be messy."
"So you don't think I need another job."
"No," she shook her head, "Shawn, you are an amazing investigator. You are so good at that and you like doing it. I don't think you would find anything else you like doing as much."
"Thanks, Jules," he smiled.
"You're welcome."
They just looked at each other on FaceTime for a minute.
"I miss you. When are you coming back? There's no one to snuggle with!"
"Soon," she laughed.
