Dawson and Gretchen in “Eastern Standard Time”

Dawson

I still have my distortions and my delusions. I still think that everything should be perfect, and that Joey and I should have slept together for the first time. What I realized is that I gotta let go. You know, it's time. And there's so much ahead of me. I mean, there's college, there's... there's this new baby... and there's you.

Gretchen

So what are you saying?

Dawson

I'm in love with you, and I no longer remember what we're waiting for.

Gretchen

Neither do I.
