“None of the Above” · Season 3
In this episode: Joey Potter (4), Pacey Witter (4), Dawson Leery (2), Andie McPhee (1)
Don't worry, Pacey. This isn't going to be one of those horribly awkward, hope-boy-didn't-mean-all those-hurtful-things-he-said-during-the-break-up-moment.
Well that's a relief 'cuz I sure don't wanna play the guy-feels-guilty-about-breakup-even-though-it-was-girl-who-had-an-affair-with-the-mental-patient-scene.
Someone gave it to me.
A certain someone with blond locks and a name that rimes with Steve?
[Laughs] She's good, I like that girl, she's good. [Nudges Dawson with his elbow]
Once again, Dawson Leery proves the groin is mightier than the brain.
I bet when she offered you that test you didn't fire one ethical comment her way, did you?... It's just your friends who have to sit here and... and suffer through the Dawson Leery morality play, bleached blond ho-bags willing to put out need not audition.
No, I wanted to consult the people I thought I trusted to determine what the best thing was to do. I never thought anyone would be so weak or so self motivated to actually swipe it.
Weak and self motivated, huh? Now which one of those two colorful adjectives would i be?
You are who you are, Pacey.
Yes I am, Dawson. And so are you. [Pokes him in the chest] You, Dawson Leery are a self-righteous, son of a bitch who cares more about his rose colored defunct 1950s belief system then the people who fail to live up to it, huh?!
Interesting choice of words coming from a smug, cold-hearted son of a bitch who just dumped his girlfriend after she begged and pleaded for an ounce of sympathy.
At least I didn't send her father to prison.
No, you just made her go crazy. [Pacey punches him in the eye. Dawson turns around punches Pacey on the lip, sending Pacey to the ground]
Ah...[Joey comes out from the building to see what's going on]
What happened? Dawson, what are you doing? [She goes to Pacey, leaning down and holding his arm]
It's my fault, I'm sorry.
Dawson, this has got to stop! [to Pacey] Are you okay?
Hey, brought you a Pepsi.
No thanks, I'm not thirsty.
It's for your lip, moron. I'm out of ice.
I can't believe he thought I'd take that-
So what, Pacey
I thought if I'd earned anyone's respect, it was his. I mean, if the guy who knows you better than anybody on earth thinks you're a loser, then maybe...
Then maybe you are one? Come on, I mean I thought you were a loser for years but you never believed me. [They smile at each other]
It's just...you know when does a person start believing the general consensus about themselves?
When it's right. [They pause and look at each other]
Do me a favor?
Hmm?
Can you tell your friend Dawson that I'm innocent? I mean, he'll believe you.
No, my friend? Look he's your friend too. And you know as well as I do that he's somewhere right now sulking over the gravity of his wrongful accusation.
Well good, let him stew in his own pride for a while.
Now we're all guilty of that.
Hey, I'd never accuse him of cheating.
Yeah, well I'm pretty sure he'd never take the first swing at you.
He started that whole thing!
I'm not getting into this.
Okay, so tell me.
What?
What do you think happened to that test?
I don't know. And to be honest, I don't want to know. I mean there are certain things in life you're just...better off not knowing. And things that you wish you never knew, never asked and...never saw.
Okay, so tell me honestly...does it look that bad?
On your face, any reconstructive surgery whatsoever, is a definite improvement. [Pacey gives her a look, she smiles and laughs]
