[about to take a a Jell-O shot] Well, thank you, Mr. Cosby.
“Valentine's Day Massacre” · Season 3
In this episode: Pacey Witter (3), Joey Potter (1), Doug Witter (1)
You were in a rare form tonight
How bad do I suck, huh?
So what seems to be the problem?
[shakes his head]) There is no problem, Dougie
Oh, come on Pacey, I found you hanging from a tree getting completely wasted, huh...so what is it a girl or something?
What?
Okay, so it's a girl....who is she?
You know what, Dougie, it's really not that important, okay?
Okay.
I'll tell you something, though. She is really really annoying.
Yeah?
Yeah, I mean this girl is amazing. There is not a single subject on the face of the planet that she doesn't have an opinion about. It's mind-boggling.
Wow, that certainly sounds like a nightmare.
Wha-no, it's not quite like that, Doug, I mean you've got to understand...the girl's really smart so she's usually right and when she argues it comes from this really beautiful, pure place, so how can you fight against that? Especially when you're smart ass like me.
Is she pretty?
Yeah, she is pretty. She is very very pretty. She's actually the kind of pretty that gives you butterflies, you know what I mean?
Ah, yeah...never lose the butterflies.
What?
You maybe ask what sucks most about getting older. Somewhere along the line you just...lost the butterflies...so the question is little brother, what are you going to do about it?
Do?
Yeah, do. As in do something. Take action.
No, I don't think you're really properly grasping the gravity of this situation, Dougie. You see if I was to actually do something about this, there is the strong possibility that the sun would cease to shine, that the tides would cease to rise. In fact, I'm betting there's a pretty good chance that the very earth would crack open and Capeside would become home to a huge hell mouth, that would spew forth endless hoards of monsters and demons that would choke the denizens of this city, making them fall to their knees and PRAY for a return to the days before...I took action. That's really what we're talking about here.
What I said last night was way out of line...and yes I was drunk, but more to the point I was just plain wrong and I wanted you to know that I was really sorry.
Well...I was worried about you too, Pacey.
Me?...Why?
Well...because, I mean Satan himself could lead Dawson into the fiery pits of hell and he would still come out with his moral code firmly intact, but you....maybe I think that nobody's worrying about you right now.
So then, what you're really saying is, given the highly dysfunctional nature of our relationship, this is actually how you express concern for me?
You gotta learn to read between the banter, Pacey.
Right...[long pause]
So...so, are we all finished here?
No, actually, um...there's something else.
Something else?
Yeah...it's just something I've been meaning to tell you...uh...look, uh...Joey...[They give each other cute looks]...you're lingering on your clutch, okay? I know you think you're just easing into the gear, but...it's not a good idea, you know, maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow, but soon you're going to do a lot of damage to your transmission, so...what I was thinking was that if you wanted to, I could show you.
Now?
Yeah. [they smile at each other]
Okay, Pacey.
