00:00...to a relationship between yourself and Mr. Whitter.
00:02Is it time I kiss you, man?
00:07Go ahead, hold on.
00:11Do you think you can handle it?
00:13What the hell?
00:15Thanks, Jack.
00:16If you can't handle being in the same room with me...
00:18I can handle being in the same room with you, Jen.
00:20I just can't handle you throwing yourself at me.
00:22Don't you find it humiliating?
00:30I feel the magic.
00:32I saw starlight in your eyes.
00:41Dawson.
00:42What?
00:44What?
00:45What are we doing?
00:47It always looks like we're doing.
00:49It's just not working.
00:51I mean, it's freezing and there's bugs.
00:53Can't we go somewhere else?
00:55Fuck.
00:56We can't go to Miles.
00:57We can't go to your house.
00:59We're kind of limited.
01:00I know, but I just feel too Swiss Family Robinson.
01:03I mean, I'm a 20th century girl.
01:05In order to make out, I need some music, some mood lighting, and some climate control.
01:10Where's your sense of romance?
01:12We've got gorgeous moonlight shimmering in the water.
01:15We've got stars overhead.
01:18Crickets chirping.
01:20We've got wind and trees.
01:23And if you get cold, we've got me to keep you warm.
01:27Dawson.
01:28What?
01:30You are so cheesy.
01:33You don't like it?
01:35Are you kidding?
01:36I find it unbearably sexy.
01:48My heart is in my hands.
01:52My head is in the clouds.
01:56My feet have left the ground.
01:59My life is turning around and around.
02:05Every voice inside my head is telling me to run.
02:12I'm mad on the balls and arrows, the stars and sunsets.
02:18Hey, hey, hey, yeah.
02:20Hey, hey, hey, yeah.
02:22Every heartbeat, every kiss just makes me wonder
02:28what all this is.
02:31Suits of armor, hearts and arrows.
02:35Hey, hey, hey, yeah.
02:38Hey, hey, hey, yeah.
02:48Dad, I was actually beginning to think this whole restaurant idea of yours
02:51is just a pipe dream.
02:53Not if I can find the proper location.
02:56This woman swears that I'm not going to find a better deal than her warehouse.
03:00Where are you meeting her?
03:02Right here.
03:03She said she'd meet me at 8.
03:07Where's Jacobs?
03:09Well, I'm not your teacher anymore, Dawson.
03:11You can call me Tamara.
03:13Tamara Jacobs.
03:14I'm Mitch Leary.
03:15We spoke on the phone.
03:16Yes, Mitch.
03:17Hello.
03:18Are you moving back into town?
03:20No, I'm just in Capeside for a few days to sell this property.
03:26Well, I should get going to school.
03:29So, um...
03:31Pipe is...
03:33Tamara.
03:37Lisa.
03:39Hey, I need to talk to you.
03:41Let me guess.
03:42You and Joey are having another love span.
03:44You want my opinion.
03:45Well, here it is.
03:46Joey is being sarcastic and oversensitive
03:48and you, my friend, are being self-absorbed and self-catering.
03:50There you go.
03:51Problem solved.
03:52This has nothing to do with Joey, Mirai.
03:53This has to be with you.
03:54What?
03:55Do I owe you money again?
03:56No.
03:57My dad and I were walking downtown today.
03:58We ran into somebody.
03:59Who?
04:00Hey, look who the cat dragged in.
04:01Nice to see you too, Casey.
04:03Don't worry.
04:04I'm just here to get a few books out of my book and I'll be on my merry way.
04:06Sit down, Midosky.
04:08Who was it?
04:10We should really talk about this in private.
04:12You know, I got to go.
04:14If I'm late for Mr. Maddox's class,
04:15then he's going to have an aneurysm.
04:16I'll catch up with you after school.
04:17Mirai, I got to beat Joey up for this art thing.
04:19Oh, the sacrifice we make for young love, huh?
04:22Listen, I...
04:23Just talk to me later.
04:24Yep.
04:29Hey, Jack.
04:30Hey, Joy.
04:31Bad news.
04:32Sutter called and cancelled our investee
04:34so we can't open this afternoon.
04:35But the good news is you have the day off.
04:38Okay, well, we can open anyway.
04:40Well, I'd love to, but...
04:43Bestie's at home with her baby
04:44and I've got to go to an art lecture after school
04:46so there's really nobody there to cover all the tables.
04:49Well, there's me.
04:50I can do it.
04:51You?
04:52Inspector Clouseau?
04:54What?
04:55You don't think I can handle it?
04:57Jack, ever since we hired you,
04:59it's been nothing but a slapstick comedy.
05:01I mean, you drop dishes,
05:03you drop dishes, you misplace orders,
05:05you fall all over yourself.
05:08Why don't you just terminate me
05:09if I'm such an incompetent moron?
05:14We don't want to terminate you, Jack.
05:16It's just...
05:19All right.
05:21You can open.
05:23Bestie will be relieved
05:24and it'll be like a test run.
05:27Just, uh...
05:30Don't set the kitchen on fire or anything, okay?
05:33Yeah.
05:35Yeah, well, uh,
05:36thanks for that, um,
05:37unqualified vote of confidence.
05:49Hey, uh,
05:50can you keep that out of my face?
05:51Oh, come on!
05:53It's allowance time
05:54and I feel a major buying binge coming on.
05:57So tomorrow,
05:58get your pocketbook
05:59and a pair of sensible shoes
06:00and let's go blow some serious dough.
06:03You know,
06:04I really don't feel like shopping.
06:06Don't feel like shopping?
06:08You don't feel like shopping
06:10and you call yourself a woman?
06:13I'm just not feeling all that festive,
06:15all right?
06:17My plan is to spend the weekend in bed
06:19counting my ceiling tiles.
06:22Please don't tell me
06:23this has something to do
06:24with your ludicrous
06:25Dawson Leary fixation.
06:29Jen, damn it!
06:31You're such an ass!
06:32I mean,
06:33what is so great
06:34about Dawson Leary?
06:35He's just a guy
06:36with a motor mouth
06:37and a limp belly club.
06:39Turn over a rock
06:40and find yourself another guy
06:41the whole world's crawling with.
06:43Look, it's not that easy,
06:45okay?
06:46I mean, I got rejected
06:47at first.
06:49And to make matters worse,
06:50that whole
06:52Dawson, Joey,
06:53Pacey, Troika,
06:55I just hate being on the
06:56outskirts of it, you know?
06:57I mean, I used to
06:59fit in.
07:00Count your blessings.
07:01Those people are boring.
07:04Yeah.
07:06Yeah, well,
07:07I guess I just
07:08need a few days
07:10to nurse my narcissistic
07:12wounds.
07:13Jen,
07:14you've had a few days.
07:16You're practically
07:17in hibernation.
07:18Winter is over, Jen.
07:19Come out of your cave.
07:21And I need you this weekend.
07:23What could you possibly
07:24need me for?
07:25All I'm gonna do is
07:26rain on your parade.
07:28Well,
07:29shopping for me
07:30is like deep-sea diving.
07:33It's dangerous
07:34and it's exciting.
07:35And if I do it alone,
07:36I may never come up
07:37for air.
07:39Please don't let me
07:40go by myself.
07:42I could drown in a sea
07:43of dresses and hair gel.
07:51McPhee,
07:53I didn't know you were
07:54a closet movie freak.
07:55I just kind of thought
07:56you were a freak in general.
07:57Ghosts,
07:59the way we were,
08:00pardon me while I gag.
08:01Oh my God,
08:02Dumbo.
08:03Okay,
08:04so I have a
08:05grade school mentality
08:06when it comes to movies.
08:07Get off my back.
08:08No, no,
08:09I love Dumbo.
08:11You love Dumbo.
08:13Are you kidding?
08:14It's in my pantheon
08:15of all-time favorites.
08:16I cried when I saw it
08:17as a kid.
08:19You cried during Dumbo?
08:21Are you joking me?
08:22I bawled my head off.
08:25I mean, God,
08:26the way those other elephants
08:27make fun of him
08:28for those fat floppy ears
08:29and then he loses
08:30his mother.
08:31Oh my Lord.
08:32It's one of the saddest
08:33movies ever.
08:35This is really strange.
08:37What is?
08:39Well, just when I've
08:40written you off for good,
08:41you drop this whole
08:42Dumbo bomb on me.
08:47Hey, you know,
08:48I'm out of here
08:49and I got no plans,
08:50so
08:52what do you say we
08:53go out and walk around
08:54downtown or something?
08:55Yeah, right.
08:56What's the joke?
08:57No joke.
08:58I got no plans.
09:00And, believe it or not,
09:01I'd rather spend the afternoon
09:02exchanging barbs
09:03with a brat like yourself
09:04than flying solo,
09:05so pinch yourself.
09:06It's your lucky day.
09:08You in?
09:09Well, uh, yeah.
09:10I mean, might as well.
09:12Unless you have your heart
09:13set on watching Dumbo.
09:15Yeah.
09:16I've seen it like
09:17700 times.
09:20You're not gonna throw me
09:21in front of a bus
09:22or anything, are you?
09:23That's an interesting idea.
09:25I hadn't thought of that.
09:27I'd like to close
09:28with this piece,
09:29Winter Mist.
09:30It's Jarvis's
09:31most famous work.
09:33No one can deny,
09:34after looking at
09:35this exquisitely tuned surface,
09:37the juxtapositions
09:38of color and shape,
09:40the visceral intensity
09:41of his line,
09:42that Jarvis was in
09:43complete control
09:44of his new technique.
09:46Sadly,
09:47three weeks after Jarvis
09:48completed Winter Mist,
09:50he died from alcohol poisoning.
09:52Despite his untimely death,
09:54Jarvis left a lasting
09:55impression on the art world,
09:57and his reputation
09:58as one of the great
09:59abstract expressionists
10:00of the 20th century
10:02will live on.
10:16The lecture was great,
10:17wasn't it?
10:18It was...
10:20certainly prolonged.
10:22You hated it?
10:24No, not at all.
10:25I mean, I just...
10:28I just don't think
10:29abstract expressionism
10:30is really my thing.
10:32Your thing?
10:33Yeah, it just,
10:34I don't know,
10:35it just seems so...
10:36unresolved.
10:38Unresolved?
10:39Yeah, I mean,
10:41it's just a blob of paint
10:42that offers up more
10:43questions than answers.
10:45A blob of paint, Dawson?
10:47Like Winter Mist,
10:48for example.
10:49You know what's the ultimate
10:50emotion expressed
10:51in that painting?
10:53Dawson Newsflash,
10:54just because a painting
10:55doesn't have a beginning,
10:56a middle, and an end,
10:57like some assembly line,
10:59summer release,
11:00popcorn movie,
11:01does not mean that
11:02it's not charged
11:03with emotion.
11:05Okay?
11:07I guess I like my art
11:08with a verdict.
11:10You know, something specific,
11:11coherent, and to the point.
11:13Like romanticism.
11:14I could totally get
11:15into romanticism,
11:16if you know what I mean.
11:17Yes, I know what you mean.
11:19Hey, guys.
11:20Hey, Laura.
11:22Great lecture.
11:23Did you really like it?
11:24It was awesome.
11:25Tomorrow I'm teaching
11:26an art class.
11:27If you guys are interested
11:28in auditing,
11:29you're more than welcome.
11:30I've got to work.
11:32Joey, how about you?
11:34I'm afraid my artistic skills
11:35peaked in the third grade.
11:37Oh, it's a beginner's class.
11:39You don't have to be Picasso,
11:40just willing.
11:41This truck literally
11:43appeared out of nowhere,
11:44and I didn't see it,
11:45and now my sob's
11:46back in the shop.
11:48I believe you had
11:49another accident.
11:50You are officially
11:51the world's worst driver.
11:53Pacey?
11:56Pacey, what is it?
12:02Hello, Pacey.
12:06I'm sorry.
12:08I'm sorry.
12:09Pacey?
12:12Aren't you going to
12:13introduce me to your friend?
12:19Hi.
12:20Tamara Jacobs.
12:21Nice to meet you.
12:22I'm Mandy.
12:24Pacey was a former
12:25student of mine.
12:28Yeah.
12:29I was her teacher,
12:30and she...
12:31No.
12:32I was her student,
12:33and she was my teacher.
12:39Well, I'm late
12:40for an appointment.
12:42It's really nice
12:43to see you, Pacey.
12:46Yeah, likewise.
12:50And nice to meet you, Andy.
12:54You take care.
12:59Pacey, what's the matter?
13:00You look like
13:01you've seen a ghost.
13:03Um...
13:05No, it's...
13:06I haven't seen her
13:07in a while.
13:08She was my teacher.
13:09Your teacher.
13:10Did she flunk you
13:11or something?
13:13Uh...
13:14No, no.
13:15Uh, listen,
13:16you know what, Andy?
13:17I think I'm going to have
13:18to take a rain check on this.
13:19Um...
13:21I'm really sorry,
13:22but I gotta go, okay?
13:24What?
13:25Are you serious?
13:38Okay.
13:51I'm on to you, Joey.
13:53What do you mean?
13:55How many other talents
13:56have you been hiding from me?
13:58Please,
13:59it's an apple and a banana.
14:00It's hardly the second coming.
14:03Well, you can be
14:04as self-deprecating as you want.
14:05It doesn't change the fact
14:06that you're a natural.
14:07You and my friend
14:08have a gift.
14:09I can feel my head
14:10swelling as you speak.
14:12Do you draw much?
14:14When I was little, I did.
14:15I wanted to be like my mom.
14:17She was an artist.
14:19She was.
14:20Why'd she stop?
14:22She, um...
14:23She didn't.
14:24She, um...
14:26She died.
14:29I'm so sorry, Joey.
14:32That must have been
14:34incredibly difficult.
14:37When?
14:39A few years ago.
14:41She had breast cancer.
14:44She was an artist?
14:47Sort of.
14:48I mean, she taught herself
14:49she wasn't a professional
14:50like you.
14:51She just kind of
14:52did it for fun.
14:57I remember she used
14:58to draw pictures
14:59of my favorite stories
15:00and hang them in my room.
15:04So art must be
15:05in your genes.
15:07Yes.
15:11I don't know, I guess.
15:14If you enjoy this, Joey,
15:15I think that you should
15:16really pursue it.
15:18I could recommend
15:19some great classes.
15:21Okay, why the look?
15:24Are you serious?
15:26I'm very serious.
15:27And you know what?
15:28You should take yourself
15:29a little more seriously.
15:31I mean, I may not
15:32be a great artist,
15:33but I like to think
15:34I have an eye.
15:35And my eye says you're good.
15:37Why when you say that
15:38do I suddenly feel
15:39overcome with anxiety?
15:41Because with talent
15:42comes responsibility.
15:44And you owe it to yourself
15:45not to let this talent
15:46go to waste.
15:52Right there.
15:59Hey, Dawson.
16:01Andy.
16:02Hey.
16:03Come on in.
16:05I'm just...
16:06coming in.
16:07Domestic spill.
16:10What are you
16:11doing here?
16:12Oh, what am I doing here?
16:15I was in the neighborhood
16:17and I was wondering
16:18what the English assignment
16:19is for Monday,
16:20so I thought you might know
16:22and here I am.
16:25It's the first chapter
16:26of Gulliver's Travels.
16:27Cool.
16:28Great.
16:29I'm going to go home
16:30right now and read it.
16:31Thanks.
16:33Andy.
16:34Are you
16:35sure that's why
16:36you came by?
16:40I don't
16:41really know you, Dawson,
16:43but
16:44if I
16:46ask you something
16:47do you swear that you'll
16:48keep it in the strictest
16:49of confidence?
16:50Yeah, absolutely.
16:52Has
16:55Casey said anything
16:57to you about
16:59possibly liking someone?
17:02Liking someone?
17:04Liking who?
17:07Liking...
17:09Oh, I don't know.
17:11Me?
17:13Not that I recall.
17:15But that doesn't mean that
17:17he doesn't like you.
17:18I mean, he could very well
17:19like you.
17:20He just didn't say anything to me.
17:22Why?
17:23Do you
17:24like him?
17:25Me?
17:26Like Casey?
17:27No way.
17:29Well,
17:30maybe,
17:31possibly.
17:34Well,
17:35why don't you just
17:36tell him?
17:38I could never,
17:39ever
17:40tell Casey that.
17:41I mean,
17:42he's a pig.
17:43He's obnoxious.
17:45There's just no way.
17:47And you have to swear to me
17:48that you will not tell him either.
17:51Why do I feel like I'm in
17:52second grade?
17:53Dawson,
17:54please.
17:55Okay,
17:56I won't say where I swear.
17:59But I've known Casey
18:00a long time,
18:01and that
18:02obnoxious pig behavior
18:03is sometimes
18:04his attempt at flirtation.
18:06Really?
18:07Yeah.
18:11Okay.
18:13Thanks.
18:14I'll see you around.
18:20Thanks.
18:22And that was what I call
18:23a shopping spree.
18:24I can't believe I blew
18:25my entire monthly allowance
18:27in less than 20 minutes.
18:29That is a record for me,
18:30I think.
18:31How are you going to explain
18:32it to your parents?
18:34The usual.
18:35I got mugged.
18:37In Capeside?
18:38You are crazy.
18:41You love me, right?
18:43I mean, this morning
18:44you had that whole
18:45hung-jawed
18:46what-was-Jen
18:47thing,
18:48but now look at you.
18:49You're smiling.
18:50You're laughing.
18:51You've got new lipstick.
18:54Aren't you glad you met me?
18:56You know what?
18:57I am.
18:58I mean,
18:59I left New York
19:00because I couldn't handle
19:01being the bad girl anymore,
19:02but
19:04I tell you,
19:05if being the bad girl
19:06means
19:07not walking around
19:08in a perpetual state
19:09of loneliness
19:10and depression,
19:12then bad girl it is.
19:14I'm glad I'm getting you
19:15back to your roots.
19:19Oh, my God.
19:22Jen,
19:23don't look now,
19:24but the biggest babe
19:25I've ever seen in my life
19:26is sitting right behind you.
19:31Mine.
19:32I called him.
19:33No way.
19:34Abby,
19:35look at the guy.
19:36He's like twice your age.
19:37Perfect.
19:38That means
19:39he's almost mature enough
19:40to handle me.
19:41I'm so sick
19:42of these little boys.
19:43I need a real man
19:44with chest hair
19:45and body odor
19:46and illegitimate children
19:47scattered across the country.
19:52Excuse me.
19:54Hi.
19:56Uh,
19:57what's your name?
19:59Vincent.
20:01Hi, Vincent.
20:03I'm Abby,
20:04and this is my friend Jen.
20:06So you're eating alone?
20:08Well, you're welcome
20:09to come join us.
20:11We don't bite
20:12unless you're asked to.
20:14I'd love to join you ladies,
20:15but I have to get
20:16to the docks.
20:18The docks?
20:20What do you do there,
20:21sunbathe?
20:22I'm a fisherman.
20:24Got a two-month stint
20:25on a longline
20:26hauling swordfish.
20:28Oh, so you're not
20:29from Capeside.
20:31Well, if you ever
20:32want somebody
20:33to show you the sights,
20:34give me a call.
20:35Abby Morgan,
20:365550142.
20:40Thanks for the offer.
20:46I didn't catch your name.
20:49Jen.
20:50Jen.
20:52It's nice meeting you, Jen.
20:55You too.
21:01Hey, you.
21:03Hey.
21:06What's up?
21:07Nothing.
21:10It's not nothing.
21:11What is it?
21:13It's a sketch pad.
21:14I was just doodling.
21:15It's no big deal.
21:16What were you doodling?
21:19Oh, if you must know,
21:20a bowl of fruit.
21:21It was something
21:22I was working on
21:23in Morris class.
21:24A bowl of fruit?
21:26You're really getting
21:27into this whole art thing.
21:28Well, let's see it.
21:30No.
21:31But come on.
21:32I don't think so.
21:33Why not?
21:34I like this new art interest.
21:37You know, Joey Potter.
21:39Artist extraordinaire.
21:41Empress of all impression.
21:42Master of still life.
21:44I hereby declare myself
21:45full-fledged madly enthusiastic
21:47fan of your new hobby.
21:53Boston,
21:54why is it that
21:55your obsession with Morris
21:57and your obsession with movies
21:58is your life passion
21:59while my interest in art
22:01is a hobby?
22:02I knew as soon as I said hobby
22:04that it was the wrong word,
22:06but by the time I had said it,
22:07it was already,
22:08it was gone.
22:10You know what?
22:11I really have to finish up,
22:12so I'll see you later.
22:16Are you just going to
22:17leave it like this?
22:18Like what?
22:19Unresolved?
22:20Yeah.
22:21Why don't you just consider me
22:22a nonspecific,
22:24incoherent,
22:25expressionistic painting?
22:27Have a great day, Dawson.
22:57Through refugees
22:59to the ocean
23:02I try not to cry
23:07Hi.
23:08Hi.
23:09I try not to cry
23:12You know,
23:13I was debating whether or not
23:14I should actually do this.
23:16This being
23:17coming out to see you
23:18because
23:20when we said hi yesterday,
23:22it was, uh,
23:23a little
23:25awkward.
23:27And, I don't know,
23:28I just thought I should come.
23:29I see.
23:30Yeah?
23:32It was supposed to feel
23:33awkward.
23:37How about this?
23:38Is this supposed to feel
23:39awkward too?
23:41Mm-hmm.
23:44And if we were to see each other
23:45a third time?
23:48No.
23:50It's still awkward.
23:51Ah, good.
23:52Well,
23:53at least there's a science
23:54to this thing.
23:55Yes,
23:56it's what we
23:57ex-English teachers
23:59call a classic
24:00pinter moment
24:02where everything is said
24:05in silence
24:08because the emotion behind
24:09what we really want to say
24:11is just
24:14too overwhelming.
24:20That's what we're having.
24:23A pinter moment.
24:25Yes.
24:30That's okay with you.
24:34Well,
24:35silence is an acquired taste.
24:38And the more complicated
24:39life becomes,
24:40the better it is
24:41to learn to say nothing.
24:47Okay.
24:50Okay.
24:51Then, uh,
24:52maybe we could have just
24:54a couple more seconds
24:55of silence?
24:57Sure.
25:16Who is this pinter guy?
25:18Who is this pinter guy?
25:23Stay in school, Pacey.
25:29Yes, Ms. Jacobs.
25:48What's for breakfast?
25:49No, just gonna have some juice.
25:50I gotta go find Joey.
25:52How are the two buff birds?
25:54Um, good,
25:55I think.
25:57I don't know.
25:59This art obsession
26:00is making Joey go crazy.
26:01I can't
26:02do or say anything right.
26:05I made the mistake
26:06of teasing her
26:07about this art lecture.
26:08She went sibilant.
26:09I don't know why.
26:10I don't know why.
26:11I don't know why.
26:12I don't know why.
26:13I don't know why.
26:14I don't know why.
26:15I don't know why.
26:16I don't know why.
26:17I don't know why.
26:20Well, in my experience Dawson,
26:22the erratic behavior
26:23of the female orientation
26:24usually means
26:25that the root of the problem
26:26is something unexpected.
26:29It's probably not about art.
26:32Gotta find out what it is.
26:35Is this your
26:36father knows best moment?
26:39Well, I have
26:40one in me every now and then.
26:44Find her.
26:45I'll talk to her.
26:46Thanks.
26:47Hello?
26:48Hey, Pacey, man.
26:49Myth to legend.
26:50Listen, Dawson, that little secret you had yesterday, tomorrow, you really should have
26:58told me.
26:59I tried to tell you, but you were off and down the hall before I could get it out.
27:02Yeah, well, you see, we got a situation here now, because I realized last night that I'm
27:08not entirely over her.
27:10Oh, boy.
27:12Um, Pacey, I'm your friend, and I want to be supportive and helpful, but the only thing
27:22I can think of to say to you in good conscience is stay away.
27:26I mean, you haven't even fully recovered from the gossip followed over your last completely
27:30illegal interlude.
27:32There are girls your age, girls who like you.
27:37I mean, would it be so terrible if you fell for one of them?
27:40Like who?
27:41Like the one who came to my house yesterday and told me that she liked you.
27:47Who?
27:48I'm not supposed to say.
27:50Oh, Dawson, I'm not in the mood.
27:52Who?
27:53Andy.
27:54Andy likes you.
27:55Andy hates me.
27:56When a girl hates you the way Andy hates you, it really means that she likes you.
28:00That's basic kindergarten psychology.
28:02Yeah, but you see, that's different, Dawson.
28:05Andy's a girl, okay?
28:08Tomorrow's a woman.
28:10Exactly, Pacey.
28:11You should be with a girl.
28:16Okay, look, I gotta go, and I'm really sorry, but I'm not begging you.
28:22As your friend, don't go there.
28:34Hey, Bessie.
28:36I think I could have the day off since there's nobody here and there's this huge art exhibit
28:41at the college that I'm dying to go see.
28:43Sure, I'll hold down the fort.
28:45You are without a doubt my favorite sister.
28:48I'm your only sister.
28:50And hey, Joey, when this place is dead, why don't you take Jack with you?
28:54There's priceless art at this exhibit.
28:56He could do some serious damage.
28:58Why don't you take him?
29:00I feel sorry for him.
29:02He just sits around looking dopey.
29:06Hey, Jack.
29:08Do you know what an art exhibit is?
29:11Yeah.
29:14Do you want to go to one?
29:17Sure.
29:21This should be entertaining.
29:32That's a great space.
29:36Location's ideal.
29:39Put a little work, of course.
29:41Well, I probably shouldn't be telling a prospective buyer this, but I am eager to sell,
29:47so you're gonna get a good deal.
29:51Trying to outrun some financial difficulties?
29:57We both know my problems weren't strictly financial.
30:03Well, since you brought it up,
30:07um,
30:09a student, wasn't it?
30:13Yes, something like that.
30:17Um, the ceiling needs fixing up, but the windows are completely new.
30:25From what I've heard, you're no stranger to scandal yourself.
30:30Only if your definition of scandal includes your wife having an affair with her co-anchor.
30:37If you don't mind, uh,
30:39I'd like to give that image a rest for the afternoon.
30:43Understood.
30:49Abby, we've been pacing these docks for like two hours.
30:53What are we still doing here? I'm starting to feel kind of stupid.
30:56What do you think? We're looking for Vincent.
30:59Who?
31:00Vincent, the fisherman, the babe.
31:04We're on hunk patrol.
31:05Oh my god, Abby, you've gotta be kidding me.
31:08There's gotta be like a hundred different boats here.
31:11We have no idea which one he's working on.
31:13We're not gonna find him.
31:16And yeah, he may be good looking, but he's old enough to be your father.
31:20Have you ever heard of statutory ratings?
31:22Shut up.
31:25We don't have to stay long. I just want to take a look around.
31:27I know this must be incredibly boring for you.
31:30Boring?
31:32Jarvis is like my all-time favorite expressionist.
31:35Your favorite expressionist?
31:37Yeah.
31:38Yeah, you know about him?
31:40Just that he was an alcoholic and he died young.
31:43And he was a genius.
31:45Amazing painter.
31:47And you know what? He was severely manic-depressive.
31:50So like half of his paintings are all chaotic and colorful.
31:56And the other half are like real suggestive.
32:02You know?
32:04But this one, this is his most famous painting.
32:09Winter Mist.
32:11I love it when a painting can really affect you emotionally.
32:15I mean, I find this one really intense.
32:20What?
32:22What?
32:24What are you looking at?
32:26Nothing.
32:28I just had no idea that you were such an art connoisseur.
32:32What, do you think my only talent is waiting tables?
32:34No, because if that was your only talent, then you'd be completely talentless.
32:39Oh, so I see.
32:41So not only are you shocked to find out that I have a brain in my head,
32:44you think I'm a terrible waiter on top of it?
32:46You know you're a sucky waiter, Jack.
32:48No way, I'm awesome.
32:54Alright, maybe every once in a while I'll mess up an order.
32:58Jack, every once in a while you're walking sight gag.
33:02Sight gag?
33:03Yeah.
33:06I guess that's one way of looking at me.
33:10But just like if some shallow person stumbled across all these paintings
33:15and labeled them like, I don't know, messy or meaningless.
33:22You know, but if you stare at the images long enough,
33:25you can see they're filled with great power and passion.
33:31Intelligence.
33:37I'm sorry, Jack.
33:40For what?
33:42For jumping to the wrong conclusions.
33:44I mean, there's obviously a lot more to you than Pratt Falls.
33:49No, Joey.
33:51I ain't seen nothing yet.
34:01There he is.
34:03Hey there, Mr. Man.
34:05We've been looking for you.
34:07Came all the way down here looking for me?
34:11Am I a lucky guy?
34:13You have no idea just how lucky you are.
34:16What can I do for you, Abby?
34:19You remembered my name.
34:21Never forget a pretty face.
34:24Well, we came down to invite you out.
34:27I was thinking a night on the town is in order.
34:30A little joy ride up the Cape.
34:33There's a watering hole in Portsmouth where we could throw back a couple of drinks.
34:37I'm sure you're part of it.
34:39Yes.
34:40It's all the rage with you laborers.
34:42Laborer?
34:44Is that my designated label?
34:46Oh, no.
34:47Don't take it the wrong way.
34:49I love laborers.
34:51They're sexy and they know what to do with their hands.
34:54Well, I'm gonna have to pass.
34:58Pass?
35:00What do you mean?
35:01Why?
35:03I'll tell you why.
35:05I'm interested in playing some blue-collar pinup for some oversexed condescending teenybopper.
35:10Excuse me?
35:13Thanks for coming by and slumming it.
35:17Let's go.
35:24Vincent?
35:27Hey, Abby's got a particular way with words that, uh...
35:32That sometimes the stuff that she says comes out wrong, but she means well.
35:37Mostly.
35:41Anyway, the only reason that we came all the way down here is because she likes you, so give her a break, would you?
35:53It's Jen, right?
35:56Yeah.
35:58I have to be honest.
36:00I don't like your friend.
36:02I think she's a stuck-up phony who wouldn't know a real man from a hole in the wall.
36:05But you...
36:07You're different.
36:08I can tell.
36:11If you'd like to, I'd be happy to take you out sometime.
36:15Do me a favor.
36:17Leave Abby at home.
36:21Jen!
36:23Jen, come on!
36:28Hey, Jen.
36:31Thanks for coming by.
36:38I can't believe it.
36:42I've actually started doing some drawing of my own.
36:45Really?
36:46Yeah.
36:47That's cool.
36:48I'd love to see anything you've done.
36:50I mean, you know, if you want to show it to me or...
36:53Well, there's not much to say, really.
36:55I mean, Laura just had us working on a bowl of fruit, which isn't the most inspiring subject matter, to say the least.
37:01See?
37:02You shouldn't be wasting your time drawing things you're not passionate about, you know?
37:06Draw what you love.
37:07What I love?
37:08Yeah, I mean, that's what artists do.
37:10They go to a place inside themselves and find what inspires them, you know?
37:15Draw what's important to you.
37:17I see.
37:18What are you doing here?
37:19I was looking all over for you.
37:20I went to the ice house, and I guess you said you were here.
37:26Uh, Joey, I'm going to take off.
37:29No, we can all walk back together.
37:30No, no, it's cool.
37:31You know, I've got some errands to run.
37:33Melissa and I had a blast.
37:34Me, too.
37:35Thank you for coming.
37:40So, want to check out the exhibit?
37:42I already did, Dawson.
37:45Do you want to show me the paintings that you like?
37:49Dawson, it's okay.
37:50I know this isn't your thing.
37:52You earn your points just by coming.
37:54No, no, Joey, I want to be here.
37:56I want to be with you.
37:59Joe, talk to me.
38:01What's wrong?
38:02I know I hurt your feelings by being too flip about this article, and I'm sorry.
38:06It was never my intention.
38:07Believe me.
38:09I'm just trying to be us.
38:12Dawson and Joey, who analyze and argue and debate and disagree.
38:16I mean, you put me in my place a thousand times about Samubi.
38:18Why can't we just, you know, interchange subjects?
38:21It might actually be a refreshing change.
38:24It's just so much more than that, Dawson.
38:27Why are you closing yourself off to me?
38:29What's changed?
38:30That's the point, Dawson.
38:32Nothing's changed.
38:33I mean, you, me, we're exactly the way we've always been, and I am so tired of it.
38:47So, I looked up this Pinter guy.
39:04Harold, playwright, king of subtexts.
39:08You say one thing, but you mean another.
39:11You're big on that hearing aid side.
39:14Yes, I know.
39:19Do you think it's possible for us to have a moment without all the subtexts?
39:26I don't know, Pasty.
39:29Words have always gotten us into so much trouble.
39:34Yeah.
39:35Well, that's not going to happen this time.
39:42I bet you thought that I came over to your house the other day to pour out my wounded heart to you,
39:47to confess just how much I miss you,
39:51and tell you that seeing you the other day brought back all the old feelings.
39:58Really, I'm fine.
40:02You know, I keep thinking that I shouldn't be over this, but I am.
40:09You know, sexually, we were pretty good together,
40:15but in all other respects, we were on two different planets,
40:19and that's what I came to tell you the other day.
40:22I'm fine. I've grown up.
40:26You have. I see that.
40:31Well, I guess this is it.
40:36The last big goodbye.
40:45Goodbye, Pasty.
41:01Goodbye, Pasty.
41:32Man, I think we could probably both benefit from one of those silent moments right now.
41:39Yes, I think so.
41:45This pinnacle guy was really onto something.
41:51Yes, he was.
41:55It's warm?
41:58You know what, Pasty?
42:01I have a buyer coming here in like an hour, and I really need to clean up this place.
42:08Is there subtext again?
42:11No.
42:14Listen, I know it's over.
42:18Okay? It has to be.
42:21Oh, God.
42:24Do you miss...
42:31teaching?
42:38Yes.
42:51Yes.
42:54Very much.
42:57Good.
43:00Because I miss your teaching.
43:06Very much.
43:21I want to see the sunrise from horizons beyond.
43:28Because now I know that there's somewhere that I'm supposed to see.
43:37Abby, I like your dress.
43:40Did I tell you that?
43:41Only about 300 times.
43:44All right, I give up.
43:47What did I do? Why are you punishing me?
43:49I like that guy.
43:50We went down there for me, and you just stole him right out from under me.
43:55I mean, I saw the looks you were giving him, batting your eyelashes at him with the mascara I bought you.
44:00Abby, that's not true, okay? I didn't do anything.
44:03After everything I've done for you.
44:06And I mean, I like one guy. Just one guy.
44:10And you can't step out of the spotlight long enough for me to get him.
44:13Look, you can have him, okay? All right?
44:16I don't want him. You're my friend. That's what's important to me.
44:19Screw the crap. Friends don't compete over the same guy.
44:22Don't blame me just because you got rejected.
44:25I didn't get rejected. That's your specialty, not mine.
44:30Can we talk?
44:46You have to explain what's going on.
44:50Because you're scaring me, Joey, and I'm afraid if I say anything, it's going to lead to a fight.
44:58Dawson, look, I've been thinking of how to make you understand my behavior lately.
45:06You know, why I've been pushing you away, but then I realized that I don't even know Dawson.
45:13All I know is that you are very important to me.
45:17And this art thing, whether it be a hobby or my life's passion, is important to me, too.
45:24It is the first thing other than you that's been important to me in a long time.
45:28Joey, that's great. I'm glad you have. I really am.
45:36I just don't want to lose what's great about us.
45:44Dawson, you've been everything to me.
45:49And I have been your sidekick, your confidant, your other half for so long.
45:54And that's how our relationship works.
45:57And it's a nice place for you, but for me, it's scary.
46:01Because I realize that aside from you, I don't have anything.
46:05My entire life is attached to you, Dawson.
46:09I was working on these sketches.
46:14And somebody told me to draw what's important to me.
46:18What inspires me. What I love.
46:27And this is the only thing I can think of.
46:38Joey.
46:40Look, and that's not okay with me, Dawson.
46:43I care about you so much, but if I ever lost you,
46:45I would be standing here totally void of anything else in my life.
46:48I mean, I live in total fear of doing nothing, of going nowhere.
46:52And that is why I shut you out.
46:54Because if I can't have something to hold on to independently from you,
46:57then I don't have anything at all, Dawson.
46:59First of all, I'm not going anywhere.
47:03Secondly, I just want you to be happy.
47:07And whatever that means, I'll provide it or support it or be completely uninvolved with it.
47:13I mean, whatever it takes.
47:19I just want us to stop fighting.
47:21Dawson, I wasn't fighting with you. I was fighting with myself.
47:26I mean, part of me wanted to send you off from me.
47:29The other part of me wanted to hold you so tight.
47:38Which part of you won?
47:44True.
47:48Dawson,
47:51I don't mean to sound like a blob of paint, but
47:56can we just let this one thing remain unresolved for now?
48:00Can we just let this one thing remain unresolved for now?
48:31Here it comes, there it goes.
48:35Something that I suppose.
48:38Hearts get torn, love is born.
48:42Gathering stones, we're rolling home.
48:46Going up, falling down on this merry-go-round.
48:52How's the burger here?
48:55Dawson told you, didn't he?
48:58Don't play dumb. When dumb people play dumb, it's very disconcerting.
49:03Dawson told you what I told him, and that's why you're acting so weird.
49:08Just admit it.
49:11I really have no idea what you're talking about.
49:14Yes, it's true. I had a brief flash of maybe feeling like I didn't possibly hate you.
49:21But it will pass, so there's no need to get a big head or anything.
49:25So you think it'll pass?
49:27It may pass. It most likely will pass.
49:30Unless, no, it will definitely pass. In fact, I think it just did.
49:35Yep, there it went. It's gone.
49:39You like me. You really like me.
49:44Pacey, please stop torturing me.
49:47I want to.
49:49Stop torturing me.
49:50I want to, but I can't.
49:52It's just something about you, McPhee, you bring out the sadist in me.
50:00Don't you know that moment?
50:09I did.
50:14Not anymore.
50:19Come here.
50:23Come here.
50:49Come here.
