We analyze the dynamics of the return amplitude following a sudden quench in the three-state quantum Potts chain. For quenches crossing the quantum critical point from the paramagnetic to the ferromagnetic phase, the corresponding rate function is non-analytic at critical times and behaves linearly in their vicinity. In particular, we find no indication of a link between the time evolution close to the critical times and the scaling properties of the quantum critical point in the Potts chain.
