@@CaseyTyler357 Yup. It's a tv show, so the writers are trying to tell us that Jules and Shawn are perfect for each other... and they are a good match, but outside the logic of the show, I'd say Shawn and Abigail were actually better together.
I think what made Jules and Shawn perfect was their respect of each others craft. Anyone can love a first responder but not everyone can live with one. There's too many "what if's" but Jules and Shawn understood that about each other. I may not see you tomorrow so I'll get my hugs and kisses today.
Remember when Shawn gives a touching speech about how great Gus is at the end of this episode? Shawn gives monologues like that at least two other times in the series, talking about how much he loves Gus. Nowhere in the series does Gus ever say anything like that about Shawn. Very curious.
Gus has a few times. Stuck up for him to his parents in the “Gus’ Dad May Have Killed An Old Guy” and told him he loved him in “Gus Walks Into A Bank”. Also left his job for him in the last episode. Pretty sure there’s a few others but those are the ones off the top of my head.
Shawn is great with words....so he knows how to express his emotions while gus basically shows his emotions by his actions. For 8 seasons all the stuff he had to do for Shawn and even in the end when Shawn decided he was being unfair to guss and left,you saw how much guster cared about shawn.
