I’m well aware of the Potter neuroses.
I prefer to think of them as quirks.
“The Anti-Prom” · Season 3
In this episode: Joey Potter (3), Pacey Witter (2), Andie McPhee (2), Dawson Leery (1), Jack McPhee (1)
I just want everything back to the way it was, you know? All of us friends again and... and me not caught in the middle.
Well if you want things to get back to the way they were, you have to set the example. Dawson and Pacey, those two just aren't gonna to do it themselves right now.
I hate the stupid prom... stupid prom can kiss my ass.
Have you told her how you feel?
Andie, she already knows how I feel.
I mean, have you really told her, Pacey? You can't just leave without letting her know. I mean, that's not like you. You--you don't just stand and let things happen, and you don't run away, either. You have to tell her that you love her, and you have to try to get her back, because if you don't, I promise you, you will regret it.
[Joey walks over to Pacey sitting at a table]
I've been meaning to ask you something all night, Pacey. [He turns around to look at her. She takes his hand] Would you like to dance with me?
[pause] Yes. [They stand up and go to the dance floor and start dancing] How come this feels so right?
Maybe it was those dance lessons. [They smile at each other and Andie finds them dancing, her features becoming sad]
[talking about her diamond earrings] Where'd you get those. They're not you.
Why because I'm some poor tomboy or because Dawson gave them to me?
Neither. See this? [He holds up her wrist with a bracelet on it] This is you. It's not showy or gaudy. It's just simple, elegant, beautiful.
It's my mom's bracelet.
I know.
How do you know?
Well, because you told me, six months ago. You were wearing that blue sweater with the snowflakes that you have. We were walking down the hallway at school, I was annoying you as per usual and you said "Look Pacey I just found my mother's bracelet this morning, so why don't you cut me some slack."
[she stares at him] You remember that?
I remember everything. [They begin to dance cheek to cheek]
