Original subtitles

So...

What do you think?

That was the director's Cut, right?

I mean, it seemed A lot bloodier.

No, no, I meant With you and me.

We did it.

Did what?

Our first official movie Night, post-breakup.

And I'd say it Went rather well.

Yeah. Well, congrats. I should probably go.

Uh, where are You going, joey? It's early.

Well, dawson, we watched The movie, you know.

All right, well, Hold on a second.

I got some pictures I want you to look at.

You're really ok With all this.

What, you and me?

Yeah.

I'm just so happy that We're finally past all that Relationship trauma.

Good. Me, too.

Great. So,

The big dilemma, Now that you're officially Helping me in the movie,

Is who do we cast As sammy?

Joey, you're a--

You're a distinct, Unattainable original.

Well, dawson, maybe You should progress Beyond the notion

That the character Of sammy is me.

I mean, why don't you Look for an actress

Who can bring her own Unique interpretation To the role?

Ah...

I'm kind of... Amazed at--

At how together you are About us.

Well, I've learned To let go.

Plus, you let me go.

I mean, granted, At first it was really hard For me to--to accept,

But...

You've moved on. You're with jack, and...

You let go.

So I in turn... Let go of you.

Yeah, well, uh,

Since we're letting Go of each other,

I should--I really Should go this time.

Uh...Anyway, yeah, 'cause I'm really tired

And you obviously Have a lot to do, so...

I'll see you Tomorrow, joey.

Yeah.

Um, good night.

Good night, jo.

Now, the task here

Is not just to represent The subject.

You're trying to evoke A feeling that you have For the subject.

Now, remember, this-- This is your work, So personalize it.

If you see the world In triangles, Then go with it.

Excellent work, Joey.

You're coming Along nicely.

Thanks.

Joey, hey.

Dawson, what Are you doing here?

I had to do some research At the college library,

But I wanted to give You my new revised draft Hot off the presses.

Thanks, But I'm in class.

Dawson.

She--she's naked.

Yeah, ok, Peep show's over. Get out.

Now, you're gonna Get me in trouble.

Sorry, this class is closed To wide-eyed visitors.

I'm gonna have To ask you to leave.

Sorry.

It says in here I can have The butt I always wanted In 3 weeks.

Pacey, I've seen your butt.

You have nothing To worry about.

I tell you, It's really no wonder

We have such an obsession With the posterior.

It's impossible To get a good sense of One's own butt, you know?

Pacey, are you checking Out your own butt In the mirror?

Me? No.

You know, I do agree With you, though.

This butt belongs In the hall of fame. What do you say?

Mmm,

Nice try.

See anything you like?

Oh, my god. You're the--

Model.

My name's devon.

Hi. Dawson.

Um...You must think I'm a total perv.

Actually, I was leaning More towards deviant.

My, uh, psych professor would Say that you were suffering

From some sort of, Uh, latent desire,

The need for someone To watch you

Watching.

Sorry to disappoint you.

I was actually Just dropping something Off to a friend.

No underlying psychosis.

Oh, psych's Not my major anyway.

Um...

How do you do that?

Uh, model naked.

I mean, it's got To be uncomfortable.

Well, actually, I'm a drama major,

So I just kind of look at it As an acting exercise.

Plus it helps that The money doesn't suck.

So you're an actress.

Mm-hmm. That's interesting.

I'm, uh, Directing a movie.

Oh, I didn't know they Had a film school here.

They don't. I'm, uh, I'm still In high school.

Oh. And you're trying To make your first film.

That's cute. Good luck.

It's my second film, Actually.

My first film won The junior division Boston film festival,

And they Gave me the funds to Make my second effort.

Impressive.

You know what?

I--I'm actually Still casting.

There--there's one part I haven't cast yet. It's one of the leads.

Um, and we, um, start Shooting in 2 days.

It's kind of A crunch situation,

But, um, I'd love it If you'd read it.

And it's funded by

The boston film festival?

Yeah, absolutely.

Look, I understand Your skepticism,

But, uh, give it a read.

It's the part of sammy.

Uh, my address And phone number Are on the front.

I'd love to hear What you think.

Careful, dawson.

Stronger men have been Crushed by what I think.

Oh, grams, You're a godsend.

We are in desperate Need of snacks For rehearsal.

Oh.

Oh, jennifer, dear, This is tyson hicks.

He was kind enough to Help me with my groceries.

Uh, ty, actually. It's great to meet you.

Nice to meet you, Too, ty.

So your grandma tells me That, uh, you're working On a movie.

Yeah. Yeah, um, We're just gearing up To start.

Well, jennifer, tyson Has expressed an interest

In helping out With the picture.

Aren't you a little Short-staffed?

Yeah. Yeah, um,

Do you have any Experience working on A film set before?

Well, no, but, um, I've worked on a bunch Of theater productions,

And I'm pretty Good with my hands

And a fast learner.

Yeah, that sounds great. We can use all the help That we can get, ty.

Even grams has been Doing craft service, So...

Well, great. Uh, well, You can use me for anything.

Excellent.

So you found a bottle Of prescription pills. So what, pacey?

Take a look in my parents' Medicine cabinet.

It's a veritable pharmacy.

Yeah, but this Is xanax, dawson.

Not exactly your typical Saturday night Muscle relaxant.

It's for severe anxiety.

You haven't noticed Andie being any more High-strung lately, have you?

Uh, no. I've been too Busy watching her bounce Off the walls.

Pacey, If you're worried,

Then why don't you Just ask her about it?

Because, man, I don't want to make The situation any worse.

She's already under Enough stress as it is With her family.

You know, The way I figure it,

If she wants to open up To me, she will, you know.

But it's also not Really in my nature

To just sit by While the girl suffers.

I mean, I want To help her, but...

If she's operating Under a lot of stress Though, pacey,

The only thing You can really do

Is make sure That the time She spends with you

Is as stress-free As possible.

I mean, you know, Help her have fun.

Dawson, what Are you doing, man?

We just put The e.T. poster up.

Why are you Taking it down?

Up there, It's not in the shot.

Over here, it'd be In the perfect position.

You know, I understand That we have budgetary Constraints,

But don't you think Telling your life story In your own bedroom

Is a little perverse, Even for you?

Hey there.

Hey. How are you?

Good. I read your script.

You did? Great. And, uh,

What did you-- What'd you think?

I didn't love it.

Really?

I mean, all the--angst And the overanalyzing,

And the hesitancy To act on anything.

I mean, I really had To search my psyche and Call back my adolescence.

Huh. 2 whole years ago.

Dawson, there--there's A vast difference Between us.

Anyway, the script's A little heavy-handed And overly verbose.

What you're saying is You're not interested.

What I'm saying is

That I managed To muddle through The $20 words

And the psycho-speak And got to the core of The sammy character.

Look, I think what I'm saying Is I'm not interested.

I mean, just-- The more--the more I think about it,

You're just-- You're really just Not right for the part.

You're a little... Small.

Wait. So--so What you're saying is

Because I had an opinion Of your script,

You're not gonna let me Read for the part?

Well, here's the cold, Hard truth, dawson.

If you can't take a little Constructive criticism, You're never gonna make it.

Good luck in high school.

I'm sorry I wasted my time.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Devon.

I'm--I'm sorry. Maybe you're right. Maybe I overreacted.

Here--I mean, you came All the way down here.

The least I could Let you do is audition, Right?

So, uh, we--we Can read scene 5. It starts on page--

Actually, I thought We'd do scene 15, Closer to the middle.

Ok.

Ok, just, uh, Give me a minute.

Sure.

Ok.

Sammy, if you could Only see yourself Through my eyes.

You know, For the longest time

I thought that Was what I wanted,

For the boy Across the creek,

My best friend,

To see me as beautiful.

But this is just...

Cosmetic enhancement...

And hair spray.

I'm still the same Old samantha,

The girl who resides on The wrong side of the creek.

And if you look closely, Wade, you'll see...

It's just me.

Is that kind of What you had in mind?

That--that was Kind of...

Perfect.

Oh. Hey, um,

I gotta get out Of here early

'cause I promised Dawson I'd help him with Tomorrow's shoot, ok?

Ok. Um,

You think he'll have us Working, uh, all day?

Us?

Yeah. Yeah, jen, she Said they were understaffed.

She asked me to help out, And bessie said she'd Cover my shifts, so...

And how does dawson Feel about this?

I don't know.

Ok.

Can I get you Something to drink?

Um, are you

Ready to order?

Order?

Is everything ok?

Yeah. I'll, um,

I'll have a hamburger, Fries, and a diet coke.

Ok. Um, I'll be right Back with your drink.

Thanks.

Uh, jack, can you go

Help that girl Over there?

I mean, she's really Weirding me out.

There you go.

Thank you.

Excuse me, um,

Do you know That waitress?

Uh, yeah, you could-- You could say that.

Would you mind Telling me everything You know about her?

Hey, mcphee.

Hey.

How's it hangin', girl?

Oh, I've been reading The same paragraph for The last 20 minutes.

I can't concentrate.

I've got A ton of homework.

Um, listen.

I've been wrestling With whether or not to Confront you about this,

And, uh, You know, I'm just gonna Get it out in the open.

So, uh...

Do you want to talk to Me about the pill bottle

That I saw in your Bathroom yesterday?

The xanax?

It's my mother's.

If you don't Want to talk about it, That's fine, andie,

But don't lie to me.

Please.

I started taking it Right after tim died.

It helps even out My mood swings.

So why do you feel like You had to hide it from me?

I don't know.

I guess I was afraid. I didn't know how You'd react,

And, uh...But it doesn't Matter now, anyway, You know.

My doctor's not gonna Refill my prescription.

She wants me to try Therapy for my stress,

But just thinking About that makes me even More stressed out, so--

Well, maybe therapy's Not such a bad idea.

I mean, it couldn't hurt.

Look, pacey, I can Take care of myself.

Don't look so worried.

I'm ok,

Ok?

But if you weren't ok,

You would tell me, right?

Yeah.

Ok, so The scene will open up

With you two Sitting on the bed.

Sammy, You're on the left,

And, wade, you'll Be on the right.

It's, um, Wherever's comfortable. It's really casual.

Hey. How are you? Uh, since abby's Late again,

I was wondering If you could read The part of kim?

Enter from over here.

Yeah. Yeah, Sure. Ok, um,

Uh, what page Are you guys Starting on?

17.

Ok, you guys ready?

And, action.

Hey, guys.

Hey.

I thought it Was video night.

Oh, it is. Kim doesn't Really know anyone Here in creek side,

So I just invited her To join us.

Isn't watching movies A little, oh, mundane

For someone From the big city?

Uh, listen, If--if I'm intruding, I can--

No. No, not at all.

The more the merrier.

No, no, wait.

Wait a minute. Hold on.

Chris, the way You're saying it now,

It sounds like you're Trying to get them Into a menage a trois.

I mean, you're Interested in kim,

But sammy's Just your friend.

I mean, she's Your best friend, But she's just a friend.

The nuances, they're Subtle, but they're Very specific.

But, dawson, it's obvious That sammy's into me.

What, am I just Supposed to ignore that?

Yeah--no, no, actually.

I mean, you're Not ignoring it, You're just--

You're not Aware of it yet.

Um, dawson, come here For a second.

That's what I get For casting a jock.

He's got the insight Of a warthog.

Ok, maybe you should Just ease up a little.

Joey.

Hey!

Terrif. Um, there's-- Come there, there's somebody I want you to meet.

Devon, this is joey.

Joey, this is devon.

Yeah, you came Into the ice house Yesterday.

Yeah. Now you know why I was acting so peculiar.

I was studying you,

Since dawson told me That my character was Based on you, so--

You recognize devon From art class?

Oh, right, yeah. The clothes threw me At first,

But, you know, I figured it out.

All right, I've got to talk To chris for a minute.

So--but you two talk, Get to know each other,

And, uh, you can Study her mannerisms.

Great. Chris.

So I'm going for Kind of a method approach To sammy,

And I was just wondering If you had some, you know, Character insights for me.

I have a couple dozen Questions I want to ask you.

A few dozen?

Well, I think that sammy And wade are soul mates,

Who will be forever Connected by an overpowering Transcendent love.

What do you think?

Wade, please stop.

Don't stop. Keep walking.

Why are you Running away from me?

'cause for the first Time in 15 years...

Whoa, I'm losing Them. I'm losing them. Hold on, I'll move--

Hey, whoa!

Sorry, dawson.

I'll catch it next time.

Um,

You guys can take 5.

Dawson, we should really Try and get the first shot off

Before we start Taking breaks, ok?

Guys, ahem, Is there a problem?

Uh, jen, I'd like to say That this accident could Have been avoided,

But with you Standing nearby,

I lose all ability To concentrate

On the job at hand.

Down, boy.

Joey, I wanted to ask you,

This whole thing really Bothers you, doesn't it?

I mean, life laid out For the world to see.

Please, it's a movie. Why should it Bother me?

'cause It's about you.

I mean, if I was Trying to get over Somebody

And get on With my life,

I think The last thing That I would do

Is to make A movie about it.

Somebody needs to Tell oliver stone Over there

That this whole war Is over.

Look, dawson is clearly Over me. I promise.

Where's your evidence?

'cause I have proof To the contrary.

Don't think so much, Jack.

I mean, everything Is going to be fine.

Don't worry about it.

You're right.

Just as long as You're over him, Nothing else matters.

Dawson can do Whatever he wants.

Hey.

Hey. Being a good boy?

Always.

What a disappointment.

Ohh!

Oh, man, I've Got the worst kink.

Here, here, let me.

Mmm.

Feels like you've got Some experience at this.

In being manipulated Into a neck rub, yeah.

Maybe I can also manipulate You into coming out With me tonight.

I mean, I think that once We get this scene done,

I'm really gonna Need to loosen up.

I think that Can be arranged.

Of course, there's One stipulation.

You got to put yourself In my hands.

Well, they are good hands.

Dawson, all I'm saying Is I don't think my character Would play it hurt.

And where's My anger coming from? I'm really confused.

I think That's implicit.

You see, I think He'd try and play it cool.

I mean, retain A little self-dignity

And not wear all His emotions on his sleeve.

And I don't think I'd blow a gasket Over this.

Ok, all right, um...

Chris...Ok, not everybody Is as cool as you, ok?

Um, when wade finds out That his girlfriend Kissed another guy,

He's...Crushed.

Ok, the last thing He's thinking about is Reserving any self-dignity.

Ok, and, devon, You're an angry girl.

I mean, that's part of The essence of who you are.

Ok, right now You're frustrated that wade

Can't see that you've Moved beyond him.

Dawson, man, I can't relate.

I've never been there.

Ok, um...

It's agony.

Complete, Excruciating agony.

It's like your heart Has been ripped out Of your chest

And stomped on,

And you can't breathe,

You--you Don't want to eat, You can't function.

Uh, it's...

It's the most Intense pain that You'll ever feel.

And the worst part is, There's no way To relieve it.

It's unyielding, Merciless torture.

And you know

That it's yours For life.

Ok, and, devon, You're...

You feel completely Misunderstood.

You think that this guy, Who you believed in Your whole life,

Can't see that the hope And potential of what You can become.

And so...

You're petrified, You're confused.

You're afraid To stay with him,

You're afraid To stay without him. You're frustrated.

You--

You feel so alone.

Sammy, I was wondering If I could speak with you For a moment.

It's joey.

Right.

Anyway, I'm having A problem with this scene.

I don't really get Where my anger comes from.

I, personally, Am not angry by nature,

And I was just wondering If you could show me How you do it.

Do what?

Be angry.

Oh, well, see, I, personally, Am not angry by nature,

So that would be the Fictional part of this Autobiographical tale.

Right.

So tell me, How do you date one guy

While you're still In love with another?

Look, I know what You're trying to do.

Don't go there.

Please, I see you Lip-locked With that puppy dog,

And yet your heart Is still so clearly With dawson.

What is this jack guy, A safety net?

Oh, you're good,

But I'm not that easily Manipulated.

Is everything ok?

Tell me, jack, What's it like being The transition guy?

Would you stop it?

You know, it Must be really hard

Opening your heart To a girl

Whose heart is reserved For someone else.

You know what? Look, you annoying little Third-rate wannabe,

Why don't you take Your irritating self

And prey on somebody Who doesn't see through Your pathetic attempt

To masquerade bitchiness As research?

Thank you.

What was that?

She's too short To play me.

What do you mean, You don't have it? It was in your hair.

Well, now it's not.

Ok, that barrette Is a prop, and I'm In charge of all props.

I need to Get it back.

Well, you'd better Go find it. I need to prepare.

Oh, like I have any idea Where to start looking

For some little tiny Barrette, ok?

You know, it could be Absolutely anywhere.

How could you have been So careless with something That wasn't even yours?

Don't you realize That people have jobs to do,

Or does the whole universe Just revolve around devon?

Get a grip, Prop girl.

Ok.

Did you see that? Do you believe her?

Yes, but I'm starting To get a little worried About you, mcphee.

Well, don't be. I'm fine.

No, you're really Not fine.

Oh, great. Thanks for your support, Pacey.

Hey, listen. Just tell me What to do here.

'cause I'm starting To feel like I'm getting A little screwed either way.

My dad is m.I.A.,

My mother Is barely lucid,

I'm holding on By my fingertips,

And yet somehow you're the one that's screwed?

Oh, yeah, that's right.

It's always gotta be About pacey.

Don't do that, andie.

Don't make me The bad guy.

I'll be your shoulder To cry on, I'll even be Your punching bag,

But I'm not the bad guy.

Pacey, I keep adding Things to my life Instead of subtracting.

Between school, My mother, jack, you,

Something's gotta give, And the way I see it,

There's only one expendable On that list.

Come on, andie.

You're not In the right place

To make that decision Right now, ok?

I--I just-- You're not thinking Straight, ok?

Yes, I am. You know what?

For the first time I'm seeing everything crystal.

It's you, pacey. You're the one That's gotta give.

We need to cool it, Because us, That's the problem.

Andie, You don't mean that.

Yes, I do!

And if you really Care about me,

If you really Want to help me,

Then you would just Back off and leave me alone!

And...Action.

At least let me explain.

What purpose could That possibly serve?

You kissed Another guy.

In my mind, There is absolutely, Unequivocally

Nothing left to say. Ever.

You don't even Want to know why, do you?

You're not even listening!

What justifiable reason Is there

That the girl Who supposedly spent Her entire life

Pretending like I was the only thing That mattered...

Threw it all away For a 30-second cheap thrill?

And cut.

That was incredible.

That was great.

All right. Great, guys. Great shot.

Um, let's get moving on And set up the next one

Before we lose the light, All right?

Wow.

That was great.

Did you see that? Wasn't it incredible?

Yeah. Look, we need to talk.

Dawson, why do you insist On reliving

In excruciating detail

One of the most painful Experiences of our lives?

Is this your perversely Self-defeating way Of moving on,

Or are you just Trying to punish me?

Neither.

How can you be so ok With this, dawson?

I mean, didn't we Mean anything To each other?

Isn't anything sacred With you?

I mean, I know that You've gotten over us

And everything That we went through,

But has it ever Occurred to you That maybe I haven't?

I mean, it takes time. I'm happy you are.

I'm glad that You've found it so easy Just to move on,

But, you know, This movie is just Self-indulgent and unfair--

Wait a minute. Let's take a little Refresher course, joey.

you broke up with me, ok?

You have a new boyfriend. You've found your art passion.

You have a whole new life. What do I have?

A self-obsessed movie.

Well, forgive me For not letting go of The one thing I've got left.

But that's not Healthy, dawson.

I'm not gonna sit here And listen to you Bitch to me

About what I've done, ok, joey?

you left me.

you dumped me. I haven't moved on.

I haven't let go, ok? And that's why,

That's why I'm clinging For dear life

To the one thing that Is keeping me going.

Thanks for a good day.

Tomorrow call time's 8:30.

Hey.

Need some help, Grams?

Oh, thank you, jennifer.

You know, I watched you today,

And you know what I saw?

Why do I feel a lecture Coming on here?

I saw all these young people

Working together as a team For a common goal,

And I was so impressed, And...

Then I realized Who was in charge of everyone,

And I was so proud.

I found myself watching

A beautiful, accomplished Young woman...

Who jut happened to be My granddaughter.

Well, I hope that I had everybody else Fooled, because I...

I was definitely Flying by the seat Of my pants.

Oh. A woman movie producer.

In my day, Women didn't have Many options.

You got married, You raised a family.

But now...

What a wonderful time To be a woman.

You can do or be Anything you want.

And without a man By your side.

Couldn't resist That one, huh?

We just wrapped The last shot,

So I'm ready to go Whenever you are.

Just give me a second, ok?

Sure.

Ok. Go ahead.

I know that you're dying To get it off your chest.

Have a nice time, dear.

You deserve it.

Thanks, grams.

Just don't stay out Too late.

I know.

Pacey.

Gee, you look terrible.

Yeah, well, I should. I mean...

I kind of screwed up With andie.

I pushed too hard.

What happened?

Uh...

She told me that I'm the element In her life

That she can do without.

Did she mean it?

Yeah, she meant it.

Then let her go.

What?

I think you should Let her go.

I mean really do. Don't just pay lip service.

I mean...Let her go.

Like what you're doing With joey?

What I'm trying To do with joey.

I mean, I've been Fooling myself, pacey, But I think...

I'm gonna do it.

It's the only way You can really get somebody To come back to you.

You know...

As textbook healthy As the letting-go Theory sounds, dawson,

And, you know, It may work out For you...

It doesn't apply to me.

This isn't a case Of teen romance Gone sour.

I know what I want. I want andie.

And...She's really Hurting right now,

And whether She knows it or not...

She needs me.

I have absolutely No intention Of letting her go.

I'm kind of hungry.

I was hoping that we could Maybe grab a bite to eat.

Well, they have stuff To munch on here.

It's my friend lloyd's Place.

He's having A get-together. I told him I'd stop by.

A party? Why didn't you say so?

I'm always up for A good party.

Cool.

After you.

Hey, guys.

Hey, everybody.

Ty's here.

Ok. We can get started.

Um, I brought A friend with me.

Jen, this is everyone. Everyone, this is jen.

Hey...Everyone.

Hi.

Hey.

Yes.

Ok.

Last time we stopped

On the first book Of the kings.

Why don't we pick it up From chapter 9,

"God's promise and warning."

"If you turn aside From following me,

"You or your children,

"And do not keep My commandments And my statutes

That I have set before you..."

I'm coming!

Go away, pacey.

I'm ignoring you!

Are you nuts?

What are you doing?

Is this thing reinforced?

Ohh! Oh!

Oh, my god, be careful!

Hah.

For the lady.

I don't believe you.

Is this your way Of staying away from me?

Uh...Yeah,

Well, about that,

I've decided not to.

You see, You need me, mcphee.

Come on, who else Is gonna put up with you, Right?

You know, it's just One shove, and it's A long way down.

I'd just have to Climb right back up.

Ok, you know what?

You're acting like A psycho,

And the last thing I need in my life Right now

Is another crazy person.

So go home.

Ok?

No.

I'm not gonna let you Push me away, mcphee.

You know, I think I forgot to mention

That I'm actually A charter member

Of the andie mcphee Fan club,

And as a matter Of policy...

Our adulation Never wavers...

Through the good times Or the bad.

I just...

I want to feel better, Pacey.

I know, andie.

I know.

And I can help.

I know I can.

And I'm not gonna Turn away from you.

Not after all you've Done for me, andie,

And certainly not when You need me the most.

We can do this Together.

And I know That I can help you.

Pacey,

how do you know That you can help me?

Because, andie...

I love you.

I love you, too.

Hey, dawson.

We're, uh, we're gonna Go grab a bite to eat.

You want to join us?

Um, no, actually, I've got some work To do.

Thank you.

You sure?

Yeah. Yeah.

All right.

Bye.

See you later, man.

All right. Hey, good work.

Thanks.

You know, You impressed me Today.

I did?

Yeah.

You know, it's-- It's interesting.

You made Such an effort

To make the script So precisely match Reality,

And yet you changed The ending.

You know, My psych professor Would say--

Let me guess. Your psych professor Would tell me

That I should probably Give up all hope For a past

And focus on the future.

Very good.

Look, I, uh,

Just wanted to say

That I think you show Real potential As a director.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

You sure you don't want To grab a bit to eat Or something?

I'll definitely Take you up on that Some other time.

I just...I don't know, Right now I just Kind of want to...

Be here.

Ok.

Have a good night.

Good night.

Hey.

Joey.

I assumed you'd Probably taken off.

Yeah.

I, um...

Listen, About earlier--

Yeah. Look...

Dawson...

I'm very sorry that I Came down on you So hard this afternoon.

It...

It was unfair.

And it...

You know, it's just been Really hard

Having to watch my life Being reenacted

In front of Half of capeside.

Joey, if I offended you Or hurt you in any way, I'm sorry.

I just thought That by making

This autobiographically Cathartic movie

That I could...

Put the past behind me In one fell swoop, You know?

It turns out--heh--

It doesn't work That way.

Yeah.

If only things could be That simple, right?

You know What it is, joey?

I've...Spent The last few months

Of my existence...

Trying to figure out How to...

Be without you.

I mean, I've tried...

Acting like it... Doesn't hurt,

Pretending I don't care.

I--I guess I just--

I felt that if I...

If I acted like I was over you, then...

Somehow I would be.

You know?

And...The truth is...

Most of the time All I wanted to do

Was just crawl Into my room With my best friend

And shut the blinds...

And just pour my heart Out to her.

Dawson, um...

I don't think You realize that...

It has been Just as difficult for me.

I mean...

It's been tearing me Apart, too.

But I know we'll always Be connected.

I know that our lives Are destined to be Intertwined, but...

But we have to move on.

Yeah.

A little bit today...

A little more tomorrow.

Joey.

You, uh...Ready?

Yeah.

Jack, uh, thanks For helping me out Today.

I really Appreciate it.

No problem. It was a lot of fun, Actually.

Good.

Do you want us to hang out

And help you clean up Some of this stuff?

No. You, uh... You go out And have some fun.

You've given me Enough of your day.

You sure?

Yes, absolutely.

Go. Get out of here.

Ok.

Um...

Good night.
