TEXT: [Scene: Doctor's Office. Dawson is in finishing an exam.] Dawson: Just a complete loss of control. So there's nothing wrong with me? Dr. Reiss: Everything is fine, kiddo. Blood, EKG, all normal. Anything else I should know about? Dawson: I, um... I've been having these episodes. Uh, well, attacks, really... where I get all sweaty and I feel like I'm gonna pass out. Dr. Reiss: Have you ever passed out? Dawson: No, but... I've come close. Dr. Reiss: How long has this been going on? Dawson: Um, a couple of weeks. Dr. Reiss: [Sighs] Dawson... how long has it been since your father died? Dawson: About a month. Am I going crazy? Dr. Reiss: You're not crazy, Dawson. Stress manifests itself in all kinds of ways, and anything as significant as the loss of a parent could easily trigger what you're experiencing. Dawson: I don't think it's that, though. I mean, you know, it was... tough, but I've been dealing as well as anyone could. Dr. Reiss: Well, these episodes could be how you're dealing. Look, this-- this isn't my area, but I know a doctor in Boston who I think can help you. She specializes in things like this... grief, loss of a loved one. Dawson: You mean a shrink? Dr. Reiss: Yeah. [He talks into his intercom] Tracy... Dawson needs to see dr. Weir. Weir is the best in Boston. Dawson: Is there someone closer? 'Cause I really have to kind of stay near my mom. Dr. Reiss: The only other place would be in providence. Look...trust me. Weir is worth the trip. [Tracy comes in carrying a note] Tracy: You're all set. 5:00 tomorrow. Dr. Reiss: Dr. Reiss: Great. Let me know how it goes. Dawson: All right. Thanks. Joey: Hey. Audrey: Hey. Joey: Do you need
SUMMARY:
Jen helps Dawson go to the grief counsellor (played by Pauley Perrette) he ran away from the week before. Dawson finds the idea of sharing his thoughts with a complete stranger uncomfortable, but he is surprised with how much he learns from it. Back in Capeside, Dawson and Gail run into problems handling Mitch's will, the main problem being that Lily is not included in it. Meanwhile, Joey is working on a project about old letters authored many years ago by a recently deceased writer, and with the help of Audrey's audition tape for "The Real World: Ibiza", she manages to catch something no one of the fellow students did. Pacey confronts Karen about the risks she is taking by having an affair with Danny. Later, Karen is hurt when Danny's wife shows up at a party they are both attending.
