After Shawn Spencer convinces the police he is psychic in order to get out of an aiding and abetting charge, Interim Police Chief Vick hires him to help out on a high-profile kidnapping case, being led by Detective Lassiter. Shawn brings in his best friend Gus to help him find the missing man and they soon realize this kidnapping isn't what it seems to be. Now he must "psychically" lead the cops in the right direction, which ends up taking a sudden and unexpected turn.

The Attorney General's son is getting married this weekend and someone has stolen the $5 million antique engagement ring from the hotel safe. Lassiter wants to do this by the book, but after Shawn finagles his way into an invitation to the festivities from the bride and groom, he quickly "divines" that this was an inside job.

When Shawn is the only one to realize a suicide is in fact a murder, he keeps himself on the case by insisting he's getting information from the sole witness: the victim's cat. It soon becomes apparent that a string of recent suicides may in fact all be murders, and Shawn must "channel" the cat and catch the killer before he can strike again.
