 | Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Jack: Jen I want her. I want her. I don't know what you and Grams have discussed. Jen: Grams is aware of her own situation, her health and all. We both think that you would make an excellent father. Now Jack, please help Amy to find a place to be. I feel like I never really quite fit in. Jack: Which is why we're us. Jen: I know. I mean from the second that I stepped out of that cab onto the creek I was the instigator, you know, the girl who caused problems and rocked the creek and upset the delicate emotional balance of Capeside and I don't want Amy to be that person. I want her to belong, I feel like I never really did. Jack: Jen. You belong... you belong to me. Don't you get it? You're my soulmate. Amy's gonna know love, everyday of her life she is gonna know how much her mother loved her. I'm gonna see to that. Ok? |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Jen: Hi, Amy, it's mom. Well, by the time you see this, I won't be here anymore, and I know how much that sucks, for both of us. So seeing as how I won't be around to thoroughly annoy you, I thought I would give you a little list of the things that I wish for you. Well, there's the obvious. An education. Family. Friends. And a life that is full of the unexpected. Be sure to make mistakes. Make a lot of them, because there's no better way to learn and to grow, all right? And, um, I want you to spend a lot of time at the ocean, because the ocean forces you to dream, and I insist that you, my girl, be a dreamer. God. I've never really believed in God. In fact, I've spent a lot of time and energy trying to disprove that god exists. But I hope that you are able to believe in god, because the thing that I've come to realize, sweetheart... is that it just doesn't matter if god exists or not. The important thing is for you to believe in something, because I promise you that that belief will keep you warm at night, and I want you to feel safe always. And then there's love. I want you to love to the tips of your fingers, and when you find that love, wherever you find it, whoever you choose, don't run away from it. But you don't have to chase after it either. You just be patient, and it'll come to you, I promise, and when you least expect it, like you, like spending the best year of my life with the sweetest and the smartest and the most beautiful baby girl in the world. You don't be afraid, sweetheart. And remember, to love is to live. |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Pacey: I'm just saying thank you. You reminded me of what I'm capable of feeling. It's like I was... walking around seeing my life through a smudged window, and then I saw you and the smudges were gone. The window was clean |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Lilly Leery: What's a soul mate? Dawson: It's uh... Well, it's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else. It's someone who makes you a better person. Actually, they don't make you a better person, you do that yourself because they inspire you. A soul mate is someone who you carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you and accepted you and believed in you before anyone else did or when no one else would. And no matter what happens, you'll always love her. Nothing can ever change that. Make sense? |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Joey: What's going on in that head of yours? Pacey: You're off the hook. Joey: What? Pacey: You're off the hook. I've never had much faith in that whole "if you love someone, set them free" crap, as evidenced by everything I've done in my life up until this very moment, but I am determined to be happy, Joey, happy in this life. And I love you. I have always, always loved you, but our timing has just never been right. And the way I figure it, time is no man's friend. Well, I have to get right with that and be happy now. Because this is it, this is all we got. If there's one thing that I've learned from losing Jen, that's what I've learned. Joey: Pace, I... Pacey: Actually, hold on, I'm not done yet, because I also want for you to be happy. So I want you to be with someone, whether it be Dawson or New York guy or some man you haven't even met yet, but I want you to be with someone who can be a part of the life that you want for yourself. I want you to be with someone who makes you feel the way I feel when I'm with you. So, I guess the point of this long run-on sentence that's been the last 10 years of our lives is that the simple act of being in love with you is enough for me. So you're off the hook. Joey: You know what, for the record, I don't want to be let off the hook. Because everything I have done has led me here, right now, and the last thing I want is to be let off somebody's hook. Pacey: Don't miss my point here... Joey: And don't miss mine. Pacey, I love you. You know that. And it's very real. It's so real that it's kept me moving, mostly running from it, never ready for it. And I love Dawson. He's my soul mate. He's tied to my childhood, and it's a love that is pure and eternally innocent. I can't be let off the hook because I just might get the notion that it's OK to keep running. |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Dawson: Life has no opposite. Joey: I never thought of it that way. Dawson: Well, leave it to me to overthink it. Joey: You are the writer. Dawson: This writer has decided it doesn't matter how it ends. Because fiction is fiction. For the first time in a long time, my life is real. It doesn't matter who ends up with who. In some unearthly way, it's always gonna be you and me. Joey: It's always. Dawson: What we have goes beyond friendship, beyond lovers. It's forever. Joey: Yes it is. I love you, Dawson. Dawson: I love you too, Joey. Lilly Leery: [Scene: cut in, showing Alexander climbing a ladder and Lily standing at a window in the Leery house. Reminiscent of Joey and Dawson's childhood] Come on Alexander, only a few more steps, you can do it! Joey: You and me always. Dawson: Always. |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Joey: There's so much, Dawson. Both good times and bad. When I loved you, you loved Jen. When you loved me, I needed to be my on my own. So I left you for Jack. I didn't realize he was gay. Dawson: And then I convinced you to turn your dad in for trafficking cocaine. You said you'd never speak to me again. Joey: But I did. I offered myself to you at that party after you crashed your dad's boat. Dawson: And I refused for some reason. So you feel for Pacey. Joey: While you were losing your virginity to Jen. Dawson: And then finally, we slept together. Joey: Only to get into a fight the day after, thus ruining everything we've waited so long for. Dawson: And then I dated an actress, you dated that Eddie guy. Joey: And years passed, until finally, here we are. |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Joey: Dreams aren't perfect, Dawson. They come true, not free. |
| Season 6 / Episode 24: - ...Must Come to an End (2) Doug Witter: [Doug walks up to Jack, who is sitting on the beach with baby Amy asleep in a carriage next to him] Gram said you were here. Just thinking? Jack: Capeside's favorite pastime. Doug Witter: What about? Jack: Moving. Doug Witter: Moving? Where? Jack: I don't know. Boston. New York. Doug Witter: Why? Jack: Amy. Doug Witter: Jack, you can't do that. Jack: Yes I can. How many gay parents do you know in Capeside? Doug Witter: So? How many gay teachers were there, before you came back? How many gay sheriffs are there, for that matter? Jack: Last time I checked, none. I'm tired of being first, Doug. Half my life has been about reeducating this community, and what do I have to show for it? Doug Witter: You think there are prizes for inspiring people? Jack: I don't want to inspire people any more. All I want to do is give Amy a normal existence, and she's not going to get that here. She's gonna have the same childhood that I did, only instead of being the only gay kid, she's gonna be the only kid with a gay parent. I don't want that. Doug Witter: You're going to be a gay parent no matter where you are. And yeah-Amy is going to face rejection. That's what it means to be a teenager. Jack: I just want to be a good parent. I have to be. Doug Witter: Hey. Jack. Being a good parent means knowing that your child is bound to fall down. And you just have to show 'em how to get back up. Jack: What do you know about parenting? Doug Witter: Not much. Hoping to learn quickly. Jack: It's a sweet gesture, but no thank you. Doug Witter: It's not a gesture. Jack: Yes, it is. With everything that we've been through, I'll be damned if we're gonna get back together over your sense of... obligation, or worse, pity. Doug Witter: Screw pity. I love you. I love you, Jack. I love that you're the bravest person I know... and the kindest. I love that no matter what you do, your life is gonna stand out. I want to stand out with you... and your daughter. [sighs] If you'll let me. [They kiss, and an elderly couple walks by] Jack: Uh, it's the Dudleys. Right there. Doug Witter: Evening, Mr. and Mrs. Dudley. I was just, uh, kissing my boyfriend. |
 | Season 6 / Episode 23: - All Good Things... (1) Dawson: Best thing we can do is just be ourselves, carry on in our typical, usual, distracting... Pacey: Sordid love triangle ways. Dawson: [Laughs] Leave it up to you to say the most inappropriate thing possible. Pacey: Aw, I'm always dependable, my friend. Joey: So very not funny. Joey: Hi, Christopher. Dawson: And the triangle becomes a square. Pacey: Well put. |
| Season 6 / Episode 23: - All Good Things... (1) Jack: Good teachers are just traumatized students trying to erase whatever went wrong with their own high school experience. |
| Season 6 / Episode 23: - All Good Things... (1) Jen: It's beautiful today isn't it, hum, how the sun just affects every breathing thing, I mean you can really see it... Dawson: Ok, Mrs. Dalloway. |
| Season 6 / Episode 23: - All Good Things... (1) Doug Witter: [Doug pulls Jack over for speeding] Looks like somebody's in quite the hurry this morning. Jack: Sheriff Doug. I'm sorry. I'm late, I'm trying to get to class... Doug Witter: Well, I have no choice but to issue you a citation for doing 40 in a 25. Jack: Look, I already have all these, these points against my license. D'ya think maybe there's something I could to to... get you to look the other way? Doug Witter: May I remind you, Mr. McPhee, that attempting to bribe a public official is a serious offense. Jack: Well, you know, I was just hoping I could appeal to your greater sense of compassion? Doug Witter: [Doug thinks about it and then leans over and kisses Jack] All right. Just this once I'll let you go with a warning. Jack: [Jack puts his hand over Doug's] Thanks, honey. Doug Witter: [Doug laughs] No. No - never call me honey. Jack: Dude, it's a deserted road. Chill. Doug Witter: Don't call me dude, either. Jack: All right. Tonight? Uh, dinner later? Doug Witter: Yeah. I'll cook. My place. Jack: Great. I'll bring the handcuffs... kidding. Doug Witter: Yeah, I'll see you. Jack - slow down. Jack: Yeah. [Jack turns to look at Doug's rear end as he walks back to his sheriff's car] |
 | Season 6 / Episode 22: - Joey Potter and the Capeside Redemption Joey: [voiceover] And now that this scared little girl no longer follows me wherever I go, I miss her. I do. 'Cause there are things I wanna tell her... to relax, to lighten up, that it is all going to be ok. I want her to know that meeting people who like you, who understand you, who actually accept you for who you are, will become an increasingly rare occurrence. Jen, Jack, Audrey, Andie, Pacey, and Dawson. These people who contributed to who I am, they are with me wherever I go, and as history gets rewritten in small ways with each passing day, my love for them only grows. Because the truth is... it was the best of times. Mistakes were made, hearts were broken, harsh lessons learned, but all of that has receded into fond memory now. How does it happen? Why are we so quick to forget the bad and romanticize the good? Maybe it's because we need to believe that the time we spent together actually meant something, that we were there for each other in a time in our lives that defined us all, a time in our lives that we will never forget. I can't swear this is exactly how it happened. But this is how it felt. |
| Season 6 / Episode 22: - Joey Potter and the Capeside Redemption Jen: What is this feeling? It just seems like everything's getting smaller and smaller. It's all still there, but I just can't touch it. Jack: I think it's called good-bye. |
 | Season 6 / Episode 21: - Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road Dawson: I think sometimes... you have to lose somebody completely before you can figure out what they really mean to you. |
| Season 6 / Episode 21: - Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road Dawson: This has nothing to do with the money, Pacey. It's about us. We haven't been friends for a long time. Pacey Witter: You're right. We haven't. Dawson: Ever since three years ago when you took Joey away from me. Now that really turned my life upside down. But what made it even more worse was during our senior year in high school when you, my best friend in the world world, turned his back on me. Pacey Witter: How dare you say that. You don't know anything about me. Dawson: I think I know you a hell of a lot better than you know Pacey, since you've been trying to shed this loser image that everyone has put on you. Pacey Witter: Hey, I'm not the one who lives in a fantasy world and wants to be the new Spielberg of the century. I went out and made a change in my life. Dawson: How? By taking an office job selling stock? Putting on a suit and tie, and slaving away at something that doesn't intrest you? Pacey Witter: Maybe. But at least I was good at my job. I sold many stock. I made lots of money. Dawson: Then why I'm I broke? Pacey Witter: Because that's life! I didn't plan this. I didn't expect this. What more do you want from me, Dawson? You may have lost all your money. I have lost literally everything! I not only lost every cent I made in my life, I also lost my job. I'm about to lose my car, my aparment, and my life that I built for myself! Dawson: That's the thing, Pacey. Since graduation, you turned our friendship into a compeition to see who can suceed in life. You're so obsessed with shedding that loser personality that your own parents stamped on you that you destroy everyones lives around you. You really are a loser! Everything you do will turn out bad. That's not life. That's YOUR life. |
| Season 6 / Episode 21: - Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road Joey Potter: That's enough, both of you! I can't stand to see any of you like this. Just back off! Dawson: [to Pacey] Fine! Just go. Get the hell out of here, Pacey, and take the spector of failure and bad luck with you before you rub more of it off on me or Joey. Get out my sight! I don't even want to look at you! Pacey Witter: [sorrowly] I didn't mean to lose all your money, Dawson. I had no idea something like that would happen. I'm sorry. Dawson: So am I, Pacey. So am I. |
| Season 6 / Episode 21: - Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road Pacey Witter: Dawson, there's something I need to tell you. It... oh boy. This is bad. We were so getting back to becoming friends again. It's a shame to ruin our friendship this way. Dawson: What are you talking about? What would ruin our friendship? Pacey Witter: Money, Dawson. That's what would ruin it. Dawson: What happened? Pacey Witter: [sighs] It's gone, Dawson. It's all gone. Every cent. Your money is gone. My money is gone. Some guy on Long Island money is gone. Dawson: What do you mean "gone"? Pacey, that was all the money I had! Pacey Witter: I know. Those bio-tech stocks that I put it all in... I-I don't know how this happened. I really thought Stepavich would take off. Everyone was saying that it was the sure thing. Some FDA announcement came back the day before yesterday at finding some side effects that it's wonder drug had on test subjects. The whole company is in bankrupcy. The stock is worthless. From 80-per-share to zero in a... Joey Potter: [shocked and angry] Not again. Pacey, not again with you! Dawson: [also shocked and angry] Oh, yeah right... right! Typical, so typical! Why else would you... Pacey! Why did you bluntly ignore my request to sell the stock on the day before this FDA annoucement was to take place? Pacey Witter: I don't know. I was trying to do the right thing. I thought it would double or triple in value when... Dawson: [interupting] Oh Jesus... God, Pacey! It's the same damn story with you! You ALWAYS try to do the right thing! But no matter how hard you try to help others or yourself, you don't have the intelligence or the common sense to see all the pieces of the puzzle. You never did. And you probally never will! God, of all the the countless times you let me down, screwed me over, you really did it this time! Pacey Witter: Now wait a minute. Need I remind you that you came to me with your dream. I didn't approach you. You approached me. You were the one that took the chance. You wanted me to help you with your dream of being a great film maker. You gave me your money to help you double it and to finance your movie. Yet again, this boils down to the fact that "I" screwed your over? If that's not a typical reaction on your part, then what is? |
 | Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22 Rich Rinaldi: Pacey, you are so good at your job that often I forget how young, naive, and stupid you are. Pacey Witter: Rich, I really don't need the speech from you right now. Rich Rinaldi: Oh, I think you do. And in response to your request, I'm going to tell you what you should have told your friend in the first place: no! Pacey Witter: Wait, that's it? I come to you, I embarrass myself, and all you can tell me is just a big, plain "no"? Rich Rinaldi: Pretty much, yeah. Pacey Witter: You know Rich, you are so good at your job too that often I forget what an unfeeling prick you are! |
| Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22 Pacey Witter: Rich, please. I'm just asking you for this one small favor, just one time. No one will know about this. It will only stay between you and me. After that, I'll never ask your for anything in this lifetime again or the... Rich Rinaldi: [interrupting] Read my lips: I... don't... do... favors... Witter! Pacey Witter: Why not? Because, God fobid, you'd have to drop the Gordon Gekko routine for a minute or two? This will be so easy for you just help me out here! Rich Rinaldi: Help you out? I'm done helping you out! I gave you this job, Witter! I showed you how things worked around here. I gave you a chance to escape some bottom-feeding existence from that small town where you grew up. And every step of the way, you have been a soulful, moralistic, holier-than-thou pain in my ass! So you tell me, why should I help you out? |
| Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22 Eddie Doling: [voice-over] Dear Joey, as you know I'm not good at goodbyes. But I guess that's what it is. A real one this time. Because as much as I thought I wanted us to be together, I guess what I want more is to be one of those people who lives every moment of his life without indecision and without regrets. Someone who dares to disturb the universe without a thought to the consequences. And you're not one of those people, at least not yet. Maybe you'll prove me wrong about that one day. I hope you do. But who knows? Maybe people can't change. Maybe we're doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again no matter how hard we try. I always hope for a happy ending. How crazy is that? Take care of yourself. |
| Season 6 / Episode 20: - Catch-22 Rich Rinaldi: Here, take this pen and write down today's date. Because from this day fourth, you will amount to nothing. You are failure and a loser! You deserve to get what's coming... Pacey Witter: Stop calling me a loser! Don't you ever call me a loser! Rich Rinaldi: [taunting] Oh, what are you gonna do about it... loser? Loser! Loser... Rich Rinaldi: Don't worry, it's over. You're through. You're fired. You're finished. You'll never work in this company, in this town... or in this state again! Why do you look so down? This is what you wanted all along, right? Loser! |
 | Season 6 / Episode 16: - That Was Then (aka Before and After) Prof. Greg Hetson: Look, I don't feel right about unleashing Harley on you, but she's been extra loopy these days. I think it's drugs. Joey Potter: It's called hormones. I wouldn't worry about it. Prof. Greg Hetson: I'm very worried about her. She's got posters of boys on the ceiling above her bed. Why there, Potter? What purpose do you suppose those pictures would serve in that particular location? Joey Potter: Professor Hetson, Harley is completely normal. One might even wonder that she's a cliche. Prof. Greg Hetson: I don't like the sound of a "normal" girl. I corrupted a lot of those. They will do anything to not be normal. I want her to be a lot more like you, anxious, bookish, prone to having boyfriends dump you and moving far, far away. Joey Potter: [annoyed] Thank you for the reminder. Prof. Greg Hetson: So, no boys at the house, or calling the house, or slowing down while walking by the house. Joey Potter: You better watch it. Sexual deviation may not be on Harley's mind. But if you keep being this strict with her she might realize that there's something fun and naughty she's apparently missing. |
| Season 6 / Episode 16: - That Was Then (aka Before and After) Pacey Witter: Now hold on, what exactly do you want to talk to me about? From my way of seeing things, we are just two brothers trying to take care of our large family. Doug Witter: No, Pacey. I'm the one taking care of the family. I'm the one that's been taking care of the family for years. Pacey Witter: Now Doug, don't you dare get righteous on me. You cannot lower your resentment over me because that was your choice to stay here in this crappy small town and look after our drunkard parents, and our sisters, and our screaming, out-of-control nieces and nephews. Doug Witter: Yeah, I do happen to make choices. I know that's a foreign concept for you who likes to play musical careers! Pacey Witter: How did we get here? I'm I stepping on your turf or something? Are you the only member of the family allowed to be carring and compassionate? What did you expect me to do, Doug? Just chomp on my cigar on the other end of the phone and cut a check for the man's funeral? I am a member of this family. Doug Witter: Yeah, convenently. That's the way it is with you lately. You swoop in at Christmas after not calling or visiting for months, bringing your fancy and expensive gifts, and pull wool over the whole Witter family's eyes. And then you're out. Everybody forgets. Pacey Witter: Forgets what? That I'm the family failure? The black sheep? I'm never supposed to grow up? I'm not allowed to succeed? I'm I not allowed to want things? Doug Witter: We all want things, Pacey. Belive me, we all want things! Pacey Witter: Then what? Am I not supposed to get them? Is that it? Or is that Witter males like us are not supposed to get them? We're just supposed to follow tradition; stay in Capeside, get married, have four or five kids, become drunks who hit and abuse our wives and children every day and night just like Dad and Grandad, and later die from alcoholism before reaching age 50? So wait... ultimately, this is not about me or our father, which is kind of pathetic, Doug, considering the condition that man is in right now up there in that hospital bed. This is about you wanting to see my face every day and remind yourself that you're still the better son. That you're top dog. Well, that's just sad, Doug! That's just sad that you see things that way. It's sad that you resent me because I'm a laid back, free thinker and not the obedient lap dog like you... following our father's orders without question all your life just to nuzzle up to him in order to stay on his good side. I miss the daily beatings from our old man just as much as you do, but I had to leave sometime... whereas you chose to stay here close to our father, slash, domestic abuser. Doug Witter: Pacey, don't make this a celebration about your retreat from Capeside. Pacey Witter: I'm not! Listen... I came here to see you, and to see him. And you know what? He knows it, and he appreciates it. Perhaps he's even happy to know that I... his youngest son and youngest child, whom he ignored, abused, and verbaly put down for the better part of my whole life, is not going to hold a grudge against him until the day he dies. In a strange way, this might even be a good thing. Doug Witter: You know it is a good thing, Pacey. It's all yours. You can have it. Enjoy it while it lasts because our father will not be around forever. |
 | Season 6 / Episode 15: - Castaways Joey: You were wanting to kiss me all night? Pacey: Yes. Joey: Even when you were yelling at me. Pacey: Especially when I was yelling at you. Joey: So... is this... some sort of... recent new development in your life? Pacey: Wanting to kiss you? No. It's sort of always there... like... white noise, or... the secret service or the threat of nuclear war, for that matter. Just somethin' you get used to. |
| Season 6 / Episode 15: - Castaways Joey: Well, are you gonna answer that, or are we gonna finish this? Pacey: We could live for a thousand years, and we would never finish this. |
| Season 6 / Episode 15: - Castaways Joey: I don't know. I guess I feel different. Like... I've always had this tendency to assume that change, when it happens, can only be for the worse. You know? And lately, I kinda feel like that's not true... like whatever's waiting for me out there... may not be that bad. And even if it is... then not knowing about it... might actually be the good part. |
| Season 6 / Episode 15: - Castaways Joey: [to Pacey] Just because I've never done it before doesn't mean I'm not gonna be good at it. I was good at sex, wasn't I? |
| Season 6 / Episode 15: - Castaways Pacey: I don't know. But... you remember how you said you were willing to be surprised by the future? Joey: Yeah. Pacey: Surprise. |
