Dawson's Creek (1998–2003): Season 4, Episode 3 - Two Gentlemen of Capeside - full transcript

Pacey, enlightened by getting good grades, decides to take a sail on his boat and takes Jen with him for company. Meanwhile, Andie has an interview with Drue's mother for a college acceptance. But her medical records get in her way in which the egotistical and snobbish Mrs. Valentine worries about Andie's mental stability and outright denies her the spot. Everyone's plans change when a big storm rolls into Capeside, trapping Pacey and Jen at sea where Dawson and Joey steal a motorboat, owned by a cranky old resident, A.I. Brooks, to rescue them while Andie takes control of the situation at the Yacht club to wait out the storm. At sea, Jen and Pacey admit to each other their biggest regrets in life. Jen regrets never being in love, despite her feelings for Henry, and Pacey regrets the destruction of his friendship with Dawson.

The Two Gentlemen of Verona.

Not one of the bard's best...

...but an interesting apprentice piece
nonetheless.

ln the high-spirited Silvia...

...we see the first version...

...of a character we're later
gonna come to know as Juliet.

ln the two male characters,
Proteus and Valentine....

Next time, l draw blood.

lt's your own fault. l'm new here,
and you're not being very nice to me.

l'm not trying to be.

Then again, you don't strike me
as very popular...

...so you can turn around now.
You're of no use to me.

Hate to interrupt, Miss Potter.

But maybe you could tell us...

...what The Two Gentlemen of Verona
is all about.

-Well, it's a--
-Could you raise the volume a notch?

l don't speak mumble.

lt's about a girl
who comes between two guys.

Right you are.
Two guys, a girl and no pizza place.

How did the play make you feel,
Miss Potter?

l didn't think it was very realistic.
l mean...

...Valentine is this
cardboard cut-out hero...

...and Proteus is unfairly painted
as a villain.

l think these scenarios
are actually a lot more complicated.

Mr. Leery, do l sense an opposing
viewpoint in your little chortle?

No. No, it was nothing.

Please, please. Elaborate.

Well....

l don't think it's a story about a girl
coming between two guys.

l think it's about the friendship
between the two guys.

Which fails when the girl
comes between them.

lt fails because one friend betrays
the other. Proteus is a lousy friend.

Valentine isn't such a great guy.

He's so fixated on his honour...

...he totally loses sight
of everything else around him.

He was willing to make
the ultimate sacrifice.

He gave up the girl he loved.
That's a bad thing?

l think nothing about this topic
is black-and-white, Dawson.

Drue?

Gene and Roger here have
a fantastic energy...

...but they're sort of
all over the place.

Now, l, for one, would love
to see them engage...

...in a prepared debate
about the merits of the play.

-Would you mind your own business?
-l think that is a splendid idea.

l've never generated
so much heat out of what...

...is arguably Shakespeare's
worst comedy.

You know what would be better?

lf you teamed up with them, Drue.
Threw your viewpoint into the mix.

l look forward to a lively debate
from the three of you tomorrow.

Look at that. lt's almost time for me
to be picking you up at school.

l'm not even an hour late yet.
That doesn't break my record.

Skipping school is no way for a young
lady to handle her problems.

l had a lot of angry femme music
to get through this morning...

...and l resent the interruption.

Those songs you listen to
only exacerbate your sadness.

You're missing the point.
l'm not sad.

No, l've moved on from sad. l am
currently in the thick of pissed off.

Good. Then you'll recognize
my attitude...

...if you pull this routine
one more time.

What happened to the kinder,
gentler Grams? l miss her.

Jennifer, l'm not so old...

...that l don't remember
how important senior fall term is.

Old enough to call it ''fall term.''

Much of what your next four years will
be is being decided now, Jennifer.

l will not let a momentary heartache
squander...

...any opportunities you may have.

l'm hereby putting a 48-hour cap
on your melancholy.

You can't cap my melancholy.

Watch me.

Now, here, stay dry.

Have you looked outside?
lt happens to be beautiful.

Today is a red-letter day
in The Farmer's Almanac.

Rain is definitely predicted.

So Leery manor or the B&B?
Where do you wanna get together?

Are you okay with this?

Rather than debate the awkwardness,
l'd much prefer we got it over with.

Okay. l have to work, so you're gonna
have to come down to the yacht club.

Okay. Are you gonna
be able to focus there?

Yeah. The place is a tomb
on Thursday nights.

Except for one old geezer who always
shows up for the prime-rib special.

All right. Sounds cool.
l'll see you later.

Someone couldn't have hightailed it
out of here fast enough.

And you're in a race to start
conversation with him?

Oh, she's right, Pacey.

One day, one of you is gonna have
to end to this great era of silence.

But not me and not today.
Today l'm celebrating.

-Celebrating?
-Pacey done good.

Oh, Pacey done very good.
Pacey got his first A.

Good omen, yeah?
l couldn't have done it without you.

l was but a mere study aid.

Sure you were. So now...

...you're coming sailing with me.
This afternoon is...

...the last beautiful day of the season.

You've been conscripted
to be my deck hand.

Love to, Pace,
but l have a project to do.

Put it off for one day?

lt's due tomorrow.

-And....
-Am l missing something here?

lt's with Dawson. lt wasn't planned.
lt was assigned.

Well, isn't that cute?

l'll go with you if you want.

Maybe the open horizon will
serve to lift my spirits a bit.

-Really?
-Yeah.

There you go. A willing victim.

Two things. First of all, l absolutely
refuse to make out with you.

And second of all, there's a
distinct possibility that l'll puke.

What do you know...

...those are my two things.

Hey, wait. Jack, Jack, come here.

-What?
-So...

...up like this? Or down?

Don't ask me hair questions.

Jack! You know what? Down.
lt's more relaxed.

l've got that interview today
at the yacht club, so....

l didn't know you're looking
for a job.

-Duh, Jack. College interviews.
-Oh, yeah, right. ls it that time?

For those of us who've started
the application process, yes.

-This one for Harvard?
-No.

You know that guy Drue?
His mom, Ms. Valentine...

...she's one of the alums
of the backup schools l'm looking at.

So, you know, it's always crucial
to make a good first impression.

-Whoa, Andie, you okay?
-Yeah. l got a little dizzy, that's all.

-Here. Why don't-- Here, sit down.
-Yeah.

lt's that new drug you started, isn't it?

Yeah, Nardil. lt's actually working well.
Better than anything else l've tried.

l know it's just preventative,
but are you sure you're okay with it?

lt's a little scary.
But it's just like Dr. Newman said...

...in times of high stress...

...it can't hurt to have
an extra line of defence.

You can always try my tactic. Just
forget altogether that you're a senior.

Yeah, right. Only l wasn't born
with those genes.

Okay, how do l look?

Like you should be interviewing her.

So you're sick now too?

-l've got the sniffly part.
-l've still got that nauseous part.

Maybe if you kept your tongues out
of each other's throats...

...you'd stop passing it
back and forth.

Take a good look, honey.
This is marriage.

l've gotta go to the yacht club.
l've got homework.

What? A sociology report
on the wealthy?

No. l've got a project to do with Joey.

-lt wasn't our idea. We got assigned.
-Are you okay with that?

Why does everybody treat me
like my head's gonna explode...

...every time her name
is mentioned?

-Because it did.
-Three months ago.

Which in teenager time is a decade.
Joey's got her life, and l've got mine.

And Pacey?

l see you've joined
the Great Pacey Watch 2000.

l don't have any updates.

Oh, except he seems to hate me more
since l let Joey know about his grades.

-Thanks for the tip, Pop.
-You did the right thing.

l'm all out of right things. Do you
guys want anything before l go?

No. But on your way out, would you
shut the windows back there?

The wind's starting up.

-Will do.
-All right.

Must've been hard to turn this boat
around and come back to reality.

That's an understatement.

You can just forget about
the world out here.

You could forget your girlfriend's
spending...

...the entire afternoon
with her ex-soul mate.

Pacey, l'm probably the last person
on earth you should be out here with.

Oh, that's not true. You ever
seen Dougie in a Speedo?

l mean, l love you and Joey.

But if you're having doubts...

...whether a teenage couple
can sustain a relationship...

...l'm probably not the best
person to talk to.

-Lean over.
-Oh, what's that?

That is a gift from the gods.

Did you check the weather?

l checked it this morning.

lt said a storm system's headed up the
coast, but it'll pass us right overhead.

Hello?

Hey, gorgeous.

Unbelievable.

Unacceptable.

Hello, gorgeous, is it?
This is Drue's doctor.

He's gonna have to get back to you
when the syphilis clears up. Bye-bye.

That was rude.

Ruder than taking calls
while we're working on a project...

...that you got us into?
l don't think so.

Excuse a brother for picking up on
the intense, dare l say, sexual vibe...

...between the two of you.

Must be the Star Wars thing.

-Star Wars thing?
-lt's classic.

You are obviously Luke
to this Pacey guy's Han Solo.

You're the stuff of preteen daydreams.
Cute, smart, nonthreatening...

...which is great and all
but not for Princess Joey...

...who is clearly smack-dab in
the middle of her bad-boy phase.

Where do you fit into
this whole scenario, Drue?

Jabba the Hutt, l think.

l'll be right back.

-Hello, Mr. Brooks.
-My usual table, please.

Sorry, it's taken.

lf the opening act is over,
l'd like to sit down now.

You'll be having the prime-rib special
this evening?

Yes, and l'll have it quick. l want to
get my boat home before the storm.

Storm?

A weather phenomenon where
the skies darken and rain falls.

l'll be back with your water.

-Sorry, Quick.
-No, no, no. It's my fault.

Mr. Brooks said
that there's a storm coming.

Mr. Brooks lives alone
with a three-legged dog named Boo.

-Have you seen any storm reports?
-No.

Think those things would impede
her ability to use an Uzi.

Let me know if you hear anything.

Hello?

Hey, gorgeous.

No, don't worry about it. She's crazy.

What's going on?

Well, Andrea...

...your academic record
is certainly outstanding.

Thank you.

-Oh, and Andie's fine.
-Oh, a nickname.

How charming.

Any idea what you'd like to study
in school?

Well, everything. At least at first.

History, philosophy, English.

You can never underestimate
the value...

...of a well-rounded
liberal arts education.

lf you could have dinner
with one person, living or dead...

...whom would you choose?

Eleanor Roosevelt.

Most students say Jesus.

Well, let's see.
You worked on the yearbook...

...the newspaper.
You directed a play.

Yes. Barefoot in the Park
by Neil Simon.

lt was completely pre-feminist,
but it held up surprisingly well.

-We took sort of a--
-l see only one red flag here.

At the end of your sophomore year,
you took a medical leave of absence.

Yes, l did.

But l was able to make up my finals,
and none of my grades suffered.

Nothing serious, l hope,
your illness?

l was having some
emotional problems.

Emotional problems?

So this was a mental illness?

Would you like some tea, dear?

Sure.

l think that if Valentine and Proteus
came to some understanding....

-What?
-Joey, we are trying...

...so hard not to talk about Pacey, he's
become the subtext of this whole play.

What do you say we just...

...get it out in the open
once and for all?

Okay, let's.

Pacey and l are not gonna
be friends again.

End of story.

Everybody thinks that it's time we
made up. That's not gonna happen.

Well, since you did bring this up,
why not?

-What's done is done.
-After 1 0 years, what's done is done?

No. After the greatest betrayal
of my life, what's done is done.

Dawson...

-...l was a part of that betrayal.
-Yes, and you apologized for it.

You showed some remorse
for what happened.

Pacey could care less,
which is fine.

lt's just not the kind of person l'll
race out and be friends with again.

lt's time for everyone to accept that
reality and move on with their lives...

...starting with us talking about
this play without referencing him.

Can we do that?

Yeah, okay.

What?

l'll be right back.

Oh, anxious much?

-You were supposed to be watching.
-l forgot.

l want my check. Excuse me.

Just a second.

l'm leaving for home this instant,
and l want my check.

-Drue, can you get him his check?
-Notice my reclining state.

-That would imply l'm not working.
-Would you get him his check?!

We haven't seen a storm
lik e this in 30 years.

We'll have an update
at the top of the hour.

-Well, this came out of nowhere.
-Thought the storm was heading out.

Well, it did.

lt did, but it came back.

lf you hadn't used the batteries on the
marine band, we could've got a report.

lf somebody owned something other
than Zeppelin...

...we wouldn't have needed
the radio.

-Hold this. Grab the jib sheet.
-Got it.

Let me set the course. l'll get on the
VHF, and we'll get the weather report.

Good, because you'd never
be first to admit it.

-What?
-You'd never admit it's getting scary.

This is nothing. l've seen this before.

Where? ln The Perfect Storm?

No, no, no. l saw something like this
over in Nags Head this summer.

We'll get a weather report, find where
the worst of it is and go around.

Okay.

Did that happen in Nags Head?

l guess l would say that my
greatest strength is my tenacity.

Which is probably
my greatest weakness too.

My brother, Jack, is always telling
me l don't know when to quit.

l see.

But what about your illness?
lsn't that a weakness?

No. Actually, l consider it a strength.

lt taught me the importance
of asking for help...

...when something's too tough
to handle on your own.

We keep coming back to this topic,
don't we?

-ls that a problem?
-No, not at all.

ln fact, most teenagers go through
similar experiences.

lt's nothing to be ashamed of.

lt's just that l prefer to concentrate
on the present. And the future.

That's just one part of my life.
lt does not define me as a person.

Well, although l'm sure you
consider yourself recovered...

...perhaps someone
with your background...

...would do better
in a less competitive environment.

-Less competitive?
-Perhaps a state school.

So you want to disregard all of my
accomplishments and achievements...

...because l had a problem
in the past?

Andie, understand the position
you put me in.

l have the task of judging your ability
to handle the ardent pressures...

...of one of the most difficult
collegiate environments in the country.

My name is on the line.

You know what? You're right.

My background does have a bearing
on my ability handle pressure.

l had a problem. l recognized that,
sought treatment and recovered.

And the fact that l had the courage
to face my problems and get help...

...l think only makes me
better prepared to face...

...the pressures of college
than most of my peers.

l wish you all the best.

And now if you'll excuse me....

This means severe beach erosion...

... 20- to 30-foot seas and winds...

... that will certainly exceed
hurricane force in certain areas.

Did he say, '' hurricane force''?

--gusts over 1 00 miles per hour.

He said, ''exceed hurricane force.''

Damn it. l'll never get home now.

Joey, l'm out of here. lf you
wanna work later, let me know.

-Dawson, they're out there.
-Who's out there?

Pacey and Jen are out on the boat.

No wonder you've been out of it.
Why didn't you say something?

lt wasn't this bad.

Hi, guys. Have you seen Andie?
l was supposed to pick her up.

-Hey, Jack. l'm here.
-l came early. lt's ugly out there.

Not half as ugly as it got back there.

-Drue?
-Yeah.

-Where's your mother?
-What's the matter, Bruce?

All boats from the club
are secure except three.

Those three radioed in and will
need assistance to the harbour.

-ls one of the boats the True Love?
-The True Love is out there?

-There's no slip registered for name.
-Whoa, Pacey's out there?

-Pacey and Jen.
-Pacey doesn't have any registration.

-He just uses whatever slip is vacant.
-l haven't heard anything about it.

l know that it's out there.
lt is definitely out there.

The radios are definitely blown, but
l think l got this bilge pump working.

-Aren't you supposed to be on watch?
-There's nothing to watch but water.

-Pacey, the boat's gonna capsize!
-She's not gonna capsize.

Really?!
Then why am l flat on my ass?

She'll come over, all right?
lt's what she does.

There you go. Put that on, all right?

-All right.
-We'll reef the main.

-English, please.
-We'll trim up the mainsail...

...so we don't get knocked over.

-lsn't that just gonna slow us down?
-Nope. We're not going back into port.

lt's too dangerous.
We might hit a dock--

Wait, so we're just
gonna hang out here?

We'll go to a cove l know.
lt'll give us protection.

What cove?

l don't know its name,
but l know where it is.

Well, how far away is it?

Not that far! We'll ride out the storm
there! lt's the safest thing to do!

-Pacey, what if this gets worse?
-lt's not gonna get any worse!

Pacey!

lf it gets any worse,
they'll send someone for us!

We have no radio, and we're going to
a cove you don't know the name of!

Who is gonna find us there?!

Dawson!

Dawson will know!

Three boats trying to make
their way into the harbour.

You said none of them are
the True Love.

We're escorting them. lf your friends
are out there, we'll get them back.

Pacey wouldn't dock.
No way he'd risk his boat.

No sensible person would stay out
there in this.

There's a cove at Crescent lsland. We
went there as kids. That's where he is.

ln this weather, Crescent lsland
would provide very little protection.

-He doesn't know.
-How could he not?

Obviously his radio's broken. That's
why no one has heard from him.

l'm sorry. l can't send someone miles
out to sea in hurricane-force winds...

-...because you've got a hunch.
-Look, you have to listen to him.

Let's get the boats in. lf we still haven't
heard from them, l'll send someone.

-But what if it's too late?
-l'm sorry. That's the best l can offer.

-They're there, Jo.
-Well, what can we do about it?

Go get him. ls there a boat
l can borrow?

l think Mrs. Valentine has a set of
keys to all the boats at the club.

Which is why it's a good idea to be
nice to Mrs. Valentine's little boy.

Try slip 41 , the Artful Dodger.

Don't let the old geeze see you.

We rode out a storm together
in this cove up here!

How the hell are we gonna get
through that?!

You grab the tiller!
l'm gonna drop the mainsail!

Pacey!

Here.

Come on!

-l'll radio in when l know something.
-You're not going without me.

Joey, you're not coming with me.
l'm not negotiating this.

-Whatever your reason--
-ls my reason!

Dawson, you can't solo the open seas,
not in this weather!

-Joey--
-l can't worry about the both of you!

Let's go.

Untie the dock line.

Okay, get down!
Everybody just get down!

On the floor covered with glass?
Somebody should clean up this mess!

-Where's the waitress?
-You don't know?

She and Dawson went after
Pacey and Jen in Mr. Brooks' boat.

They stole my boat?

No, l'm sure they didn't steal it.
They probably just borrowed it.

Semantics. Like the difference
between jail and prison.

Okay. Jack, l'm gonna go to the office
and try and get in contact with them.

Board up the windows. lf you can't find
boards, shove tables against them.

-Okay. You got it.
-You can't just move the tables.

-Watch me.
-Do you have other suggestions...

...on how to keep the storm out?
No. l didn't think so.

Okay. Why don't you write.

555-01 54, 555-01 30.

That's Dawson Leery's parents,
Jen Lindley's grandmother.

Call them, reassure them.
Can you do that?

-Yes. Yes, l can do that.
-Okay.

Mr. Brooks, come with me.

l'll need your boat's frequency to
contact Dawson and Joey, okay?

And you. Why don't you find
a broom or a mop or something...

...and sweep up the glass.

You want me to sweep?
What do l look like to you, huh?

You know what you look like? A boy
with nothing to do. Now find a broom.

Pacey, tell me something good.

l really wanna hear
something good right now.

Well, how about if you gonna have
a hole in your hull...

-...it's good to have it that high. Good?
-All right.

Unless, of course,
the boat does that.

The bilge pump
will take care of that.

-How do you know?
-Jen, l don't know.

Because l'm guessing, just like l've
been guessing about everything else.

But l'll be right about something.
That's the law of averages.

l have to get one right.

-Stop making fun. lt's not--
-All right. You got any better ideas?

l got one. We should be doing
that confession thing.

Like they do in movies before
the plane's about to hit down...

...or the meteor's gonna crash
into America...

...and all the characters
confess the secrets...

...that have been plaguing
their mortal souls.

Yeah. Unfortunately, those characters
rarely survive those confessions.

All right, so we just step back a notch.
No confessions. Just regrets.

Unfortunately, l can't help you there,
because l don't have regrets.

lt's not the way that l operate.

Really? You have no regrets? There's
nothing you would want to change?

No. There's nothing l want to change...

...because it's life's twists and turns
and bumps and bruises...

...that make you who you are.
So why regret that?

All right. Well, l have a regret.

l regret that l've never been in love.

-What about Henry?
-That wasn't love.

lt couldn't have been.

My big regret is that we may drown
before l ever know what love is.

-Jen, you're not gonna drown.
-l don't need the comfort.

Just felt good to say. Pacey.

-Good?
-Yeah.

We're good.

Okay.

l do have one regret.

What?

l regret the way that things are
between me and Dawson right now.

Have you ever thought about
saying something?

What difference would it make
to say something?

lt doesn't change any of our situations.

lt might just feel good to say.

Yeah.

Any sight of the True Love? Over.

I can't even see in front of our boat.
Over.

Where are you? Over.

-l think we're--
-We're not lost.

What's your location? Over.

We're 1 42.49 north by 1 06.1 9 west.

That's 1 2 miles north
of Kalispell, Montana.

Repeat your coordinates. Over.

We're 1 0--

Repeat your coordinates.
Dawson? Joey? Are you there?

Come in, Dawson, Joey,
are you still there?

Andie? Andie, are you still there?
Andie?

We've lost them.

That's all right. We're almost there.

How can you tell? l can barely even
see the tip of my nose out here.

Trust me.

-There they are.
-Yeah, that's them.

l hope they're all right.

Pull up alongside.
We'll tie the boats together.

Careful! We're gonna hit!

-We hit something.
-Or something hit us.

-You all right?
-Yeah, l'm fine.

-You're right. lt's a boat.
-lt has to be Dawson. Come on.

-Pacey, Jen, are you guys all right?
-Now we are.

Pacey, take the line!

-Got it!
-Hey!

Come on.

Watch out!

-l can make it.
-Hold on.

-You ready?
-l'm ready.

You gotta time the jump. Look for the
wave to break and jump to Dawson.

-You got it?
-Okay.

-Go!
-Yeah.

Now you!

Pacey, come on! Let's go!
Pacey, let's go!

-Pacey, are you crazy?
-l'm not leaving my boat!

-She's not gonna make it!
-l'm not leaving my boat!

l'm not leaving you!

-Dawson!
-Dawson!

-Get off my boat!
-l'm not letting you do this!

-Dawson, go!
-Pacey!

Get off my boat! Go!

People care more about you
than this damn boat!

Pacey!

-Oh, my God. Thank God.
-Are you guys okay?

-Okay.
-Oh, honey.

What you did was reckless,
dangerous and completely foolish.

We've never been more proud of you
in our entire lives.

Come, Jennifer. Thank God.
Thank God.

Oh, wrong guy, Grams.

lt's Dawson you should be thanking.

You'll forgive me for not expressing
joy and relief at the sight of the gash.

My boat's hull?

l'm very sorry about that, sir.

Sorry?

You're sorry. Well, the gash is
still there, and sorry isn't gonna fix it.

What else did you have
besides feckless regrets?

l have some money from the summer
that l was saving for college.

Which is exactly what you will
keep on doing.

That boat is a thing,
a replaceable thing.

This young man risked his life
to save my granddaughter.

The fact you can't appreciate
his courage...

...explains to me why you've
been alone all these years...

...in that godforsaken house.

And if l find out that you let him dip
into his college fund, l'll personally...

...kick your shrivelled old butt.

Andie? Andie?

l just wanted to tell you...

...l was very impressed with the way
you handled yourself today.

-Thank you.
-She did more than handle herself.

-She handled the whole club.
-lndeed.

-She did a fine job.
-Yeah. She did your job.

Okay, Jack. Come on. Let's go.

The university will be very interested
in hearing my impressions of you.

l'm also pretty sure
they'll be interested in hearing...

...what a bitch they have
representing them.

Yeah. l'm terribly sorry.

But please try to understand
the position you've now put me in.

You wouldn't dare.

No, you know what? l wouldn't.

Because at the end of the day,
Mrs. Valentine, l'm nothing like you.

l don't derive any pleasure
in wielding whatever little power...

...l have over others.

Just give me the recommendation
that you see fit...

...because if anyone at that university
knows you as well as l know you...

...it's not gonna count
for much anyway.

Come on, Jack, let's go.

Pacey?

Do you have any idea
how pissed l am at you now?

Jo, the best memories of my life
are on that sailboat.

lt represents everything that's good
to me in this world. So...

...you gotta excuse me if l'm having
a hard time letting that go right now.

No, l won't excuse you.

l don't think l've ever been so scared
for someone in my whole life.

l'm sorry that l put you through that.

Just....

Can you do me a favour?

You know, in the future when you're
dealing with life-and-death matters...

...remember that you're thinking
for two.

l can do that.

You knew he was gonna come for you,
didn't you?

What makes you say that?

Because you know him just as well
as he knows you.

lt's the nature of best friends.

No.

-Ex-best friends now.
-You know...

...whether you guys hang out or not...

...he's still a part of you, Pace.

How can you really be whole
if you continue to pretend...

...like he doesn't exist?

Yeah.

Just doesn't seem fair, does it?

What's that?

Well, you saved the day.
You still don't get the girl.

But maybe, just maybe, you got
something more important.

-How do you figure that?
-You have this moment.

No matter where
your life takes you...

...you can look back on it
and know you did a great thing.

That's something all the girls
and all the thank-yous...

...in the world can't replace.

Let's go home.

Way to go, Grams.

l always knew you had it in you.
But really....

When we get home, l have
some angry femme music...

...that you are just gonna love.

Grams?

l can't seem to find my keys
anywhere.

-Left them inside.
-Grams? Grams?

l didn't think l was ever going
to see you again.

lt's okay. lt's okay.

No. No, it's not okay.

All night, most of my thoughts were of
what l was going to tell your mother.

You handled this much better
than my mother ever would have.

l have never lost...

...myself...

...like this before.

All my talk of faith, and when l
needed it the most, l had none.

That's because you lent it to me.

Listen, l was terrified out there tonight.

But l still had hope, you know?

So l figure that l must have
gotten that from somebody.

Here, l got it. l got it.

Come on.

Does that mean l can count on you
for church on Sunday?

Not unless you want that place
to fall down.

Just thought l'd...

...give it a try.

Come on.

-What are you doing here?
-What are you doing here?

l live here.
l have for the last two years.

So this is where the Lindleys
banished their bad seed.

lt's good to see you, Jen.

Forgive me if l don't say
the same thing.

Jennifer Lindley.

The girl who set New York on fire.

l thought moving here was gonna be
the most miserable mistake of my life.

l'm sorry, you live here now?

You might wanna sound a little
more upbeat when you say that.

-A guy could take offence.
-Drue Valentine in Capeside.

God help us all.

Dawson.

-Look, l wanted to come by and just--
-Pacey...

...you don't owe me anything.

Please. You and l both know that
what you did yesterday was--

Was exactly what you would've done.

-Maybe, maybe not.
-Trust me.

You would've done
exactly the same thing.

Well, l certainly hope so.

l just wanted to come by
and say thank you.

You're welcome.

No, hold on a second. That's not it.

There's something else l wanted
to say to you.

l know that things
between you and l...

...are pretty much beyond
repair right now.

And l wouldn't presume to be able
to solve it with a conversation...

...because that's just not
the way it works.

But...

...l've been wanting to tell you
that l'm sorry, Dawson.

l'm really sorry for the way
everything went down this spring.

For my part in it.

For the pain
that it must have caused you.

And l'm really sorry
that l ruined our friendship...

...because l miss it...

...badly.

And...

...however far off it may be...

...l do look forward to the day when
you and l might be friends again.

So until then....

Until then.
