Dawson: It's beautiful. And the dresses? Joey: Oh, your mother's is gorgeous. However I'm starting to believe everything I've heard about the unflattering nature of bride's maids dresses. Dawson: I'm sure that you'll look amazing. Joey, thanks for doing this, I really appreciate it. Joey: Dawson, it was an honor when you mother asked me, how could I refuse? Dawson: Yeah, I know, it means a lot to her, but it also means a lot to me too. I, I couldn't imagine you not being a part of this ceremony, and despite any awkwardness this might stir up, it Joey: You know, it's an important day for your parents and I'm not counting on it to change either of our lives. So, it's not going to stir anything up, unless we let it. Right? Dawson: My point exactly. Yeah. Joey: So, you know what. I have to go. I have something borrowed, but I don't have anything blue, yet. Dawson: It shouldn't be too hard. Seems to be a lot of that going around these days.

SUMMARY:
Gail and Mitch prepare for their hasty wedding, while elsewhere in Capeside, Pacey finalizes plans to leave straight after the ceremony. As the day goes on, it becomes blindingly obvious that Joey must make a choice, and when a conversation takes place between her and Dawson, during which he accepts he must cease being selfish and allow Joey her freedom to make her own choices, she leaves to find Pacey, hoping to tell him how she really feels before he leaves Capeside. Meanwhile, Jen regrets ending things with Henry the way she did, and ends up chasing his camp bus to tell him how she feels. In another carpe diem moment, Jack pursues Ethan, the boy he took to the prom, although he is unhappy with the outcome. However, his heartache leads to a new connection with his father, and the two embrace for the first time in years. When Dawson returns to his house after crying for Joey at the side of the creek, he finds Jen, Jack and Andie sitting on his bed, waiting to support him after his rejection by Joey. Joey, meanwhile, manages to catch Pacey before he leaves, and instead of stopping him, confesses that she is in love with him, and leaves on the boat with him.
