“The Longest Day” · Season 3

In this episode: Joey Potter (5), Pacey Witter (3), Dawson Leery (2), Jen Lindley (1)

[Pacey and Joey are kissing]

Come on, lets go Pacey [They kiss again and Pacey picks her up and puts her on the counter] It's your boat we're planning on christening

I own a boat? [They kiss]

No, we have to stop doing this, it's wrong.

Yes, deadly [He kisses her neck]

Pacey...look, we've been in denial all weak [They intertwine their fingers together] I mean, when we're around other people we act as if nothing's changed, but the minute we're alone, it turns into this. [She kisses him]

This what?

Well this...embarrassing gropefest.

Yeah, I guess this is kind of embarrassing, huh? Especially for you, given how much you protested. [He kisses her]

I did not protest.

You did too. [They kiss again] Wait...[Pulls back from the kiss] Wait wait wait...

What?

We gotta tell him, Jo, we do, we gotta tell him as soon as possible, because the longer we wait, Jo, the worse it gets

I know, Pacey. I've tried, I've tried plenty of times.

Every time I see the guy now, I just feel like...

Look, you don't have to bother filling in the expletive, okay? I mean, this isn't exactly the easiest thing I've ever had to do, Pacey. Telling Dawson that while he wasn't looking I developed this bizarre, gravitational pull towards his best friend and I can't stop thinking about him or wanting to be near him or wanting to kiss him all the time. [she grabs his face and kisses him. They kiss for a moment and then pull back]

I'll do it.

What?

I'll tell him

No, I can't let you do that. Its-this is my responsibility

Jo, it's not your responsibility. I'm the one that started this, remember. I'm the one that got you into this situation and frankly the only way I want to save my friendship with Dawson, is to be completely honest with him, so I gotta do this. All I need is one day. Just one day.

[Nods] One day.

Yes, one day.

I just wish I were more like you. You feel things, you act on them. Pacey's like that, too. Fearless.

I'll let you in on a little secret about the so-called fearless: We're not as tough as you think we are. Pacey's heart is just as breakable as the next guy's... maybe even more so, considering it was already broken when you got there.

I thought I heard something out here.

Dawson, uh...we were just-

Having an argument, obviously...what about? [Long pause]

Us, Dawson. [They look at each other then back at Dawson] We were arguing about us. Me and Joey, there's an us here now. I'm sorry man, we didn't want to tell you this way.

You didn't tell me.

You know, don't you?

Yeah, I know...[Pause] So were you planning on telling me or was this just going to be a secret fling?

Look, it's not like that.

Then how was it, Joey? 'Cause Jen was a little short on details.

She told you?

Well, she thought I knew. I mean, I had to be pretty freaking stupid not to know, that the two people I trusted most in the world were lying to me. [Pause] So are you...are you bored, or are you confused, or just malicious?

Hey, look, I started this thing, okay? If you're going to get angry at someone, get angry at me, It's my-

I don't think you're in any position to talk about what's fair. You were my best friend.

I still am.

I'm finding that a little hard to process right now.

It's the truth, Dawson.

So I guess it's safe to assume that friendship doesn't come above sex on your list of personal priorities.

This has nothing to do with sex.

Oh, what are you, in love? Is that what this is? [Pacey pauses and looks at Joey] Oh god, don't look-don't look at her, alright? Don't-I...you know what, Pacey, I feel sorry for you, because when all of this is over, you're really going to need your friends and you're not going to have any, not a single one.

Look, I didn't intend for this to happen, Dawson-

Joey, what you intended does not provide me any solace. What? Do-do you love him? Are you-are you-do you just want to sleep with him?

No, how could you say that! I-

Because it's what he's going to expect.

We're not together, Dawson. And we haven't been for a long time, almost a whole year has gone-

Is-is this punishment?

No, I'm not punishing you!

Because I didn't want to get back together with you?

No, why would you think I would do that-

Then Joey, why? Why? Joey, because I-you keep on saying that you need to go find yourself. Is-is this what you've been looking for the whole time? Is Pacey what you've been looking for?

No!

Then explain it to me, explain to me how two people who can barely stand to be in the same room with each other end up outside my window arguing about the future of their relationship.

I can't, okay. I can't explain it, it happened. [Pause] Everything between you and me is so complicated.

Jo...God...if things between us are complicated it's because you made them that way, okay? And you think that whatever was wrong when you with me is magically going to get better when you're with him?

I don't know, Dawson. I don't know, okay. I just know that I...I need him.

Do you need him like you need me? [Pause] Joey, it's a simple question, do you need him like you need me?

Look, you can't do that Dawson. You can't. Those two things have nothing to do with each other and you know that the way I feel about him is completely separate from the way I feel about you and our friendship.

Friendship? Joey, right now we don't have a friendship.

What?

We don't have a friendship right now-

What?!

As of this moment we do not have a friendship.

That is not fair!

You can't have both of us! You can't have him as your boyfriend and me as your consolation prize, you're going to have to make a choice.

No. [shakes her head]

And I'll tell you right now, that if you choose him, I'm not going to be around to pick up all the pieces when it all falls apart. This ruins everything! There's no going back.

Okay...What do you want me to say, Dawson? What-tell me what you want me to say, what do you want to here?!

I don't want you to say anything, I want you to leave.

I don't know. I think I see some stormy weather ahead.

Pacey...

It's over, isn't it?

It has to be.

Maybe you should be the first one to go this time.
