Dawson is walking up to her house carrying a box of old clothing, when Grams and Mr. Brooks come outside.] Dawson? Drue: What? Fair enough. Gretchen: That's her problem. I can't believe I was hanging out with that guy thinking how cool he was. I tried to tell you. I would not have been trying to force the two of you back together. I'm sure there's an explanation for that. Joey: He's on a road trip with his sister. Mrs. Valentine: Oh, you're actually going to suggest that my son would rather be locked in a closet with you than spend the weekend with his father? Pacey is finishing up fixing Gretchen's car when she comes out to join him.] Pacey: Ok.
Gretchen: See you at home. Pacey: Who? So how did he react when he found out? The scene fades from Her to Dawson, to Grams and Mr. Brooks on a bench together, to Pacey and Joey sitting wrapped up in each other on her pier, and back to her driving.] Well, um, actually... Ex-boyfriend. [He walks into Dawson as he passes.] [Nick and Gretchen go back inside, while Pacey just watches them.] [Scene: The Capeside Yacht Club. [She looks over and he has fallen asleep.]

However, after being there for a while, Pacey sees that the guy he's trying to get Gretchen back together with is not who he thought he was. Back in Capeside, Joey has her fair share of problems when she gets locked in a storage area at the Yacht Club with Drue Valentine, an event he set up to avoid going to visit his father. Meanwhile, Dawson observes the feelings growing between Brooks and Grams and fears that Grams will get hurt when she finds out that Brooks is terminally ill. Gretchen finally gives into her feelings for Dawson.
