Drue: No. Good luck. It's my hope that by staring at this fish, it'll help me recall why I'm so angry at my father, thus allowing me to forgive both he and myself and enabling us to go to school in New York city if in fact that's where we desire to attend. Jen: Jack...
Jack: No, it's more important to me that we go to school together. Joey: All I can say is I never wanted to hurt you. Joey: But, Dawson
Dawson: I don't know how I feel about you sleeping with Pacey. Joey: This isn't a joke, Pacey. Pacey: Well, she's having a bit of trouble with the believing part. Really. She got in. Sure. They denied her financial aid package. This is fantastic news. Tom: Most people don't know it, Jen, but therapy was designed to include a minimum of 4 sessions a week. [Bodie returns and hands her the letter.] [Joey is on the phone with a smile on her face, but Dawson doesn't look to happy when he hangs up the phone..]
