All language subtitles for Dawsons Creek S03E11 Barefoot at Capefest 1080p NF WEB-DL DDP5 1 x264-alfaHD (1)_track3_[eng]

Correct me if I'm wrong,
Dawson, but don't you
Already own a camera?

A video camera, yeah.

And the difference is?

Well, imagine
schindler's list

Shot on
A family camcorder.

Right?
I mean, video's a great
Format to learn on,

But the look
And the feel is
Strictly amateur.

Film is key, and I think
I'm finally ready to
Give her another spin.

Her?

The arriflex.
Capeside high's one
-and only 16
-mm camera.

She is a beauty,
Dawson.

Nikki, hey, what
Are you doing here?

Extra credit for
Jordan's film class.

Plus, I get
To be near all
The equipment.

Ah, how very
Earnest of you.

You're joey, right?

Right. Hey.

I've heard wonderful
Things about your film.

Really? From who?

Um...Speaking
Of equipment...

Hand her over.

Sorry, dawson,
She's checked out.

Uh, that's
Highly unlikely.

Yet completely true.

How long has it
Been checked out for?

About 7 days.

It's due back today.

Nope, she's checked
Out for the next
4 weeks straight.

There's
A one week maximum.

I cleared it
With mr. Jordan.

You did?
Mm-hmm.

You checked out
The camera?

Me check out
The camera, yes.

Well, there's
A project that I want
To start working on.

There's
A project that
I am working on.

Ok, well, then when
Can I have the camera
Back, exactly?

When I'm done.

And when
Will that be?

Filmmaking is not
Fast food, dawson.

You can't rush it.

Wait a minute!

3 boxes of cereal, jack?
You're gonna need
An explanation.

Ok, fine.

First, we have
Our grape nuts.

Combination of taste
And sufficient nutrients

To make it
The perfect day-starter.

From there we
Move on to the premier
Afternoon snack,

The underrated
But ever-tasty
Cocoa pebbles.

And then we round out
The cereal lover's
Perfect day

With that yummy
Late-night staple,
Cap'n crunch.

If there was
Ever a concern

That you were not
Andie mcphee's brother,

It's been solved.

Yeah. Whoa,
What are you--
Come on!

You're a good man,
Jackie brown,

But as a grocery
Shopper, you blow.

I'm afraid I must
Leave you with the grape nuts.

Fascist.

Pig.

At least you
Fought the good fight.

Hey, jack.

Uh, ethan...

From the train ethan.

I prefer
Just plain ethan.

Uh, wow, uh...
What are you doing here?

Food shopping.

I hear it's pretty
Standard in one
Of these places.

I meant... I thought
You were going back
To school last weekend.

I did. I came
Back for capefest.

Oh...What is that?

Is it like a...
Feed the poor type of thing?

Which one of us
Lives here
Year 'round?

It's a concert.

A free concert
In the park.

Oh, ok, so it's
Like a 'palooza type deal?

Moshing, stage-diving,
Overpriced bottled
Water.

Anyway, there's
A campsite outside
The concert,

Where everyone
Hangs out.

I'm going down
To get a spot tomorrow.

Oh, cool. That
Sounds like a blast.

Well, if you're
A fan, you should come.

Uh...Yeah,
I'm like a total fan.

Who's your favorite
Foo fighter?

Courtney love.

You're in
The alternative nation,

Just not quite
In the right zip code.

You should come anyway.

Cute!

Gay.

Aren't they all?

Excuse me,
Mr. Broderick.

Can I speak with you
For a minute?

And you are?

Andie mcphee.

And you want to
Waste my time about?

The school play.

Well, I see. Auditions
Are after school,

So if you don't mind--

No, but if
You could just
Give me a minute.

I am not auditioning
At this time, comprende?

I am eating lunch.

I assume you eat lunch
On your planet, do you not?

But I'm not here
To audition.

I know. You want
To star in the show.

Assistant director?

I'm very familiar
With the scenario.

Look, mr. Broderick!

I want to be
Assistant director.

I'm smart, bossy,
And super-efficient,

And the truth is,
You need me.

Why didn't you
Just say so?

Filmmaking is not
Fast food, dawson.

She's entitled to
The equipment, too.

Look, you check out
A camera,

You return the camera
In a timely fashion.
That's all I'm asking.

Uh, mom?

Oh.

What's going on?

Hey.

Uh, look, honey,

I'm gonna be
Taking some furniture
Over to my place.

Oh, ok.

Just the family room
And the guest room.

It's part of
The settlement.

I asked your dad
Not to say anything

Because I wanted
To explain myself.

Mom, you don't have
To explain yourself.
That's how it works.

I need you to keep
Being as positive

As you can be
About this, honey.

It's gonna make it so much
Easier on all of us.

Well, I aim to please.

Thank you
For understanding.

Wanna talk?

What's there to say?

About what
You're feeling?

I'm thinking
My parents are divorced,

And I'm glad
It's finally over.

Dawson, I said
What you're feeling.

I'm still working
On that one.

This is gonna be great.
I mean, sleeping out
Under the stars,

Fresh breeze
Off of that ocean.

The call of the wild.

Well, it's
The call of nature
I'm worried about.

Jack, where
Are the chemical
Toilets?

I don't know.
What do you say
We set up here?

Ha. I thought I'd go
To extreme measures

To get in
Some guy's pants.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I'm not trying to get
In his pants.

For crying out loud,
This is the first gay guy

I've actually
Conversed with.

Excuse me for wanting
To get to know him.

Jack, I know.

Just be aware
That you're venturing
Into new territory here.

And that before you take
This great big
Emotional leap, jack,

You should be
Willing to admit that
You're taking it.

Don't just try
And brush it off

As simply
Wanting to get
To know somebody.

I'm telling you,
That's all it is.

Ok. Even still,
Take my advice.

Play it cool.
Let him come
To you.

I think I'm gonna see
If I can find him.

Ok, corie.
Maybe you're right.

Maybe love isn't enough.

Maybe 2 people
Should have to take more
Than a blood test.

Maybe love isn't enough.

Ok, corie.
Maybe you're right.

Maybe love
Isn't enough.

Maybe 2 people
Should have to take
More than a blood test.

Maybe they should be
Checked...

Maybe they
Should be checked...

For common sense,
Understanding...

Maybe they
Should be checked
For common sense,

Understanding,
And emotional
Maturity.

Ok, corie.
Maybe you're right.

Maybe love isn't enough.

Maybe 2 people
Should have to take
More than a blood test.

Maybe they should
Be checked for common sense,

Understanding,
And emotional maturity.

I like him.
What do you think?

I think I'm getting
A migraine.

I think he's got
A certain
Dramatic flair.

I've got someone else
In mind.

Who, someone else?
We are out
Of someone elses.

Granted, the boy I know
Is a deplorable student,

And he has the ethics
Of a billy goat.

We have already
Cast our corie
And velasco.

Please don't let
Our only paul
Slip away.

Have no fear,
Ms. Mcphee.

I cut a deal
With one of my students.

The kid is a natural
With comedy.

Ok, mr. Broderick,
If I may be so bold,

From my limited
Perspective,

I see but 2 kinds
Of actors--

Those with talent

And those with
The ability to expand
On that talent,

Which requires
Maturity,

Which requires a sense
Of responsibility,

Which requires
The ability to come

Both prepared
And on time.

Hey, you guys.
I'm sorry I'm late.

I'm here to read
For the role of paul.
Pacey witter.

That's him.
That's our paul.

Um...

Um...

Dawson, tell me
This isn't an attempt

To repossess
The camera.

I just want to
Reiterate something.

Reiterate away.

Ok, I get this
Little ego trip.

All right, I know
You're the principal's
Daughter,

But that does not
Give you the right to be
Selfish or rude.

Dawson, I didn't know
You wanted to use the camera,

But you're just gonna
Have to get used to it.

I thought I heard
A familiar
Sounding voice.

If it isn't
My second favorite
Student filmmaker.

How are you, dawson?

Principal green.
Good.

So I understand
That you and nikki

Have become
Fast friends.

Yeah. Yeah.

I had a feeling
You two would
Hit it off.

Ha. Hey, listen,

Why don't you
Stay and join us
For supper?

I couldn't, I've got--

Oh, daddy, I'm sure
Dawson has other plans.

Now, wait a minute.
As your father and
As your principal,

I think I'm gonna
Have to pull
Rank here.

Besides, how often
Do I get a chance

To have a nice meal
With one
Of my students?

And I promise
Not to talk too much

About my lovely
Little daughter.

Ha ha ha. Come on.

Hey, there.

So you decided to show.

Well, one small
Step for man,

One giant leap
For mankind.

You here by yourself,
Or with?

Uh, with. A girl.
She's a friend
Of mine.

Setting up our tent.

Ahem.
What about you?

All by my lonesome.

Um, um--

So, you want to go
Grab a bite to eat,

Take a walk, what?

Yeah. Uh, to both.

Whatever.

Come on.
I'll lead the way.

After the train ride,
I thought for sure

You'd ask for my number.

Yeah, well,
Typical paranoia set in.

What can I say?

I figured as much.

How come you didn't
Ask for mine?

Because I could.

It's more important
That you learn to ask.

You're the newbie,
Remember?

Yeah, newbie. Uh,
The barely out gay kid

Soon to have
His heart broken, right?

Good recall.

Yeah, well, there's
Not much I'm gonna forget
About that conversation.

That was a first for me.

That was
Your first time

Talking to another gay kid?

Yeah, well, unless
You count the internet.

I--I don't.

Hey, man.
Where'd you get that?

Oh. Over there.

This guy's like
A genius with
A veggie burger.

Veggie burgers!
Get 'em
While they're hot!

Hey, no crowding.
Plenty for everyone.

All meatless.
No cows died to make these.

You want your bun toasted?

Thought you'd never ask.

Hey.

Quite a crowd
You have here.

Listen, I really
Don't have time

For small talk
At the moment.

Did--did you want
A burger, or not?

Yes.

You know what?
I was wondering
If maybe you could

Give me a hand
With my tent.

I was never much
Of a girl scout.

Stanley. Take over here
For a minute, will you?

So you never told me
That you were a vegetarian.

You never asked.

Do I detect a note of
Ambivalence in seeing me?

That would
Be correct.

Any particular reason?

You--you mean
Besides the fact

That you lead me on
For the sole purpose

Of crushing me
Underfoot?

That's not true, henry,
And you know it.

Yeah, well. You could
Have fooled me.

What are you
Talking about?

Don't tell me
That you're not

Taking some
Small satisfaction
In it.

In what?

Being on
The requited side
Of unrequited love.

Henry, I thought
That you and I
Agreed to be friends.

Friends?

You haven't even
Noticed, have you?

What? Noticed what?

That we haven't spoken
In over a month.

For the past 4 weeks,
I've been giving you
The silent treatment,

And it hasn't
Even registered
On your radar screen.

Hell, I could have
Fallen off a cliff

10,000 feet
For all you care.

That's not true. All right?
Look, you know what?

You can put up
Your own damn tent.

Dawson, you're looking
At probably the only
Little girl in america

Who wanted
A super 8 camera
For her 10th birthday.

Nikki, should I tell him

The name of your first
Cinematic achievement?

Don't you dare.

a day in the life
Of daddy. ha ha.

She followed me around
All day long.

James cameron
Of third grade.

So tell me,
Has she enlisted you
For her new film?

Uh, no, she hasn't.

I don't even know
What it's about.

That's between
Me and my crew.

So, in order to bask
In the glory

Of this mind-bending
Idea of yours

I have to offer
My services?

Is that an offer?

Are you asking
For my help?

I don't need
Any help, dawson.

I think it would be
A great idea

For you two
To work together.

Forget it.
I don't think that--

I'm sorry
I mentioned it.

Yeah.

You knew that young
That you were
Attracted to men?

No, I knew that young
That I was different.

Being gay isn't about
What sex you're attracted to.

It forms so much
Of who and what you are.

You--you lost me.

I'll make it simple.

You haven't talked
To another gay kid,

So you definitely
Haven't kissed one, right?

No.

But you still
Know you're gay.

Sure.
How?

I--I just know,
I guess.

Everyone always
Wants to define gay
And straight

By who you sleep with.
It's not about that.

It's about moments.

It's about being
Too nervous to ask
For my number.

It's about
Conversations like this.

It's about who
And what you love.

That's why
You can't erase it.

Because it's not
Just a part of your life,
It's everywhere.

Unlike my stuff.

What?

My camping gear.
It's gone.

Oh.
Oh, man.

After you.

I want you to quit.

Listen, he saw
My potential, ok?

No, no, no, no. This was
My after-school activity.

But I'm the lead
In the play.

I want you to quit.

All right, listen,
The guy said he'd give me
A "C" in english.

What do you want?

Oh, oh. That's
What it's come to?
Anything for a "C"?

What's happened
To you?

Ok, not that this
Is any of your concern,

But mr. Broderick
Says he thinks

I might actually
Be good at this,
And so do I.

Ok, listen.
Mr. Broderick may be

A lousy
English teacher,

But as
A theater director,

He is probing
New lows, pacey.

Rumor has it
That he has botched

Every school play
For the past
5 years.

And it's only
By sheer force
Of will

That the past
Student theater
Geeks

Have managed
To sandbag

His bi-hourly
Nervous breakdowns.

So, what's your point?

My point is,
I got into this
To get over you, ok?

To give myself
A new focus,

And instead,
Your presence

Is giving me
Perpetual myopia.

We haven't even done
One rehearsal yet.

You want me to throw
My whole theater career
To the wind?

Oh. Ok, listen,
Sir barrymore,

Our director
Is irrational,

And your
Lack of ability,

Though not apparent
To him yet,

Is enough
To send him over
The proverbial edge

And me with him.

Fine. You quit, then.

I most certainly
Will not.

I'm not gonna quit.
Witters are not quitters.

Oh, oh,
That's really cute.

You know what?
Fine. Just don't.

Fine. I won't.

Dawson?

Hey. I must say,
Your film geekdom

Is definitely
Not evident in your
Bedroom decor.

Your room, let me guess.

Wall-to-wall
Spielberg one-sheets?

Uh, yeah.
Well, it's a shrine.

Figured as much.

You say that like
It's a bad thing.

Oh, it's not.
It's just...

There's so much
To be passionate about.

It seems kind of silly
To only focus on one.

Yeah, but if
You're lucky enough
To find that one thing,

Why not just immerse
Yourself in it?

Don't get me wrong, dawson.
I love film,

But I love it
Because it allows me

To explore
All of the other subjects
That interest me.

If all you care about
Is film,

Then you're just gonna
End up making movies
About other movies.

What good is that?

I'm really sorry
About my father.

Um, ever since
The divorce,

He does this really
Aggressive thing

When it comes to me
Making friends.
It's so weird.

But you know,
I try to cut him
Some slack.

So...

So you're cool
With it?

The--the divorce?

The, um, constant shuttling
Between living quarters,

The continually veiled
And not-so-veiled comments

My parents
Make about each other,

The, um, never-ending
Expectation

That I look on
The bright side of things?

Oh, sure.
I'm just dandy.

That's
The oddest thing.

I mean, judging from
How well put-together
You come off,

I would just assume
That you're not
Affected by it at all.

It's a well-crafted
Disguise, dawson.

Inside, I'm just
Another angry kid.

How angry?

Angry enough to make
A film about it.

So that's what
Your movie's about.

More or less.
It's about the, um,
American family.

What makes them
Functional,

Or, uh, as more often
Seems to be the case,
Dysfunctional.

Well, capeside
Should provide you

With a healthy supply
Of material there.

What about you?
Your parents are divorced.

How do you feel
About it?

Um...

I, um, I don't mean
To probe. I'm sorry.

No. No, I mean,
You--you were honest
With me,

The least I could do
Is be honest back,
Right?

Um...

The truth is,
Most of the time
I'm--I'm fine

With they're
Not being together.

You know, I mean,
Maybe I'm just
Self-obsessed,

But I--I just
Don't think about it
That much, you know?

And then,
Um, other times
It just--

It just kind of
Sneaks up on you.

You know, I mean,
It's...Like a...

A disappointment
Of being the product

Of something that
Didn't work out.

I mean,
'cause that's what
Our parents are.

They're our--our
Primary examples
Of love,

And--and my example
Just wasn't...

I guess, strong
Enough to, um...

Dawson?

I should get going.
Um, tell your dad
Thanks.

Oh, jack. Thank god
You're back

From your stalk--
I mean, walk.

You're never
Gonna guess

Who I ran into here,
Of all--

Hi.

Hello.

Ethan, jen.
Jen, ethan.

Nice to meet you.

It's nice to meet you.

It looks like you could
Use a little help
With this tent.

Yes. Please.

Relieve me of all
Of my feminist
Illusions

About the equality
Of the sexes

Concerning spatial relations.

Uh, listen.

All of his stuff
Got stolen, ok?
All of his gear.

So, uh, he needs
A place to stay tonight.

And you, being
The kind-hearted soul
That you are,

Offered him
A spot in our tent.

Yeah, so could you, uh,

Go take a walk
For a couple of hours?

Come back around,
Say, midnight?

You're kidding me.

Nope. Go mix. Mingle.

Write a few letters
For amnesty international.

You'll probably make
A lot of nice new friends.

You know what?
I've got
A better idea.

How about
Me and the car

We go back
To grams' house

And we pick you up
In the morning?

Besides, jack,
I thought that you two

Were just getting
To know each other.

Mm-hmm.

Why don't you sleep
At your club?

It's not that kind
Of club.

It's a locker room
And a handball court,

And to sleep there
I'd have to keep
Winning the serve.

No, stop right there.
Pacey, in theory,
Your character

May deliver
His lines like that,
But in concept, no.

In concept, no.

Yes.

What precisely
Is the difference

Between in theory
And in concept?

Well, I think
What mr. Broderick
Means is--

What mr. Broderick means
Is that he can speak
For himself.

You see, paul desires
His young bride to know

She knows nothing
Of the real world.

Right. Which,
Practically speaking,
Means what?

Louder and angrier.

Yes. Let's do it again,
Right now.

Louder and angrier.

It's not
That kind of club!

It's a handball court
With a locker room,

And to stay there
I'd have to keep on
Winning my serve.

Good. I liked it.

You liked that?

Well, except
For the hand stuff.

You were gesticulating.

Whoa, hey.
Gesticulating? Me? Never.

Sometimes in the privacy
Of my bedroom--

Whoa, wait,
Wait, pacey.

That, just now.
That's it.
You nailed it.

What, just now?

The joke. The dry,
Smug delivery.

That's
The character.

Uh, miss mcphee?

Am I, or am I not
The director here?

You're confusing my actors.

Well, I just
Thought that--

Don't think. Ever.

Let's do it again.
Louder and angrier.

It's not
That kind of club!

It's a handball court
With a locker room
Attached to it.

And to stay there
I'd have to keep on
Winning my serve.

This is really cool
Of you guys.

You sure jen's
Not gonna mind

If I take
Her sleeping bag?

No, no.
Definitely not.

She's, uh, she's a bit
Of a night owl.

Old girlfriend?

No, not exactly, but
We did get set up once.

Let me guess.
School dance.

Yeah. How'd you know?

Oh, punch bowl,
Wrist corsage,

All the trappings
Of straightdom.

Until you realize
You both like boys.

Oldest story
In the world.

Well, good night.

Um, good night.

Aren't you gonna
Turn off the light?

Look, I--I was
Just thinking maybe, um,

That we could
Talk some more?

You know what?
I'm really beat.

We've got a big day
Ahead of us
Tomorrow.

There's 20 bandsstarting at daybreak.

Hey.

That was
Really beautiful.

I mean, it was more
Than beautiful.

It was--it was awesome.

Whatever.

I didn't know
That you could sing.

I think
We established

There's a lot
You don't know
About me.

Henry? Henry,
Wait up for me.

Why?

Because I wanted
To talk to you.

You can't--
You can't keep
Doing this to me.

Doing what?

Trying to
Be my friend,

And then
Pushing me away

When--
When my feelings
Scare you.

Ok, I admit it.
I miss you.

I miss the goofy way
That you used to look at me

With all that passion
And intensity.

You made me feel like
I was actually worth
The fuss.

You know, I used
To spend every day
Thinking about you

And dreaming
About you,

And every time
You walked by,

I lost myself.
Do you know what
That feels like?

Do you?

No.

Then you couldn't
Possibly know

What it feels like
To have that person

Not have the same
Feelings back.

Look, I'm sorry
You miss how
I looked at you,

But I don't miss
How you never
Looked at me.

Have I stepped into
Some parallel universe?

Say it isn't so,
Dawson.

It's very so, jo.

Is this
About your parents?

Truth be told,
I don't know
What it's about.

All I know is I was
At nikki's house today,

We were talking
And it hit me.

The kid who hung
These posters up,
I'm not him anymore.

I don't see the world
The same way.

My viewpoint then
Was so limited.

And now
I...Don't know what I see,
But I don't see this.

So you were
At nikki's house,
Your worst enemy.

A--she's not
My worst enemy,

B--have you missedeverything that I've told you?

I never thought
I'd say this about you,
Dawson, but...

You're such a sell-out.

What?

I mean, first eve
Practically tugs you
Around by a dog collar,

And now this new film girl
Breezes into town,

And you're tossing
Your identity out the window.

I'm not tossing my identity
Out the window.

If anything, for
The first time in my life,

I'm actually getting close
To discovering what
My identity is.

All right.
I talked to nikki.

She helped me
Sort through all this
Weirdness with my parents.

Dawson, I wanted to talk
To you about that,
And you didn't want to talk.

No, I didn't. How did this
Become all about you?

Because you ran to her.

I did not--

What did you do then?

Look, you wanna cite
Themes for our friendship,
Try this on for size, joey.

Every time I express
One iota of interest

Or even mere respect for
Anyone of the opposite sex,

You attack me like
I'm some sort of criminal.

Oh, and you don't attack me?

No, I don't. As you notice,
I have not once asked about
Mr. Ivy league.

Yeah. That's noted.
His name's a.J. Ok?

And maybe your not
Asking me about him is worse
Than my attacking you, ok?

No. It's not.
My choice is civil.

Oh, and I'm not civil?

No. You're yelling.
That's not civil.

You're yelling, too.

Out with the old,
In with the new, huh?

Have fun.

Well, I'm gonna
Go grab some breakfast
Before the music starts.

Thanks again for
Letting me crash here.

Sure.

Aren't you forgetting
Something you're
Supposed to ask me for?

I don't think so.

My number, jack.

You know, so you can
Call me some time, we
Can talk, get together.

I don't get this.

I mean, last night,
You didn't seem interested
Enough to want to talk to me,

And now all of a sudden,
You want me
To have your number.

I was tired.
I wanted to sleep.

That's got nothing to do
With us being friends.

Friends.

I figured you were
Probably interested.

And you're not.

Even if I was, I would
Never go there with you.

You're so not ready.

How could you possibly
Know what I'm ready for?

It doesn't mean that I'm
Not interested in you, jack.

It just means that if I'm
Gonna stay in your life,
And I want to,

That I'm a lot more likely
To stick around this way.

So you are interested.

No comment.

Well, this is, um...

This is sort of funny.

I mean, as much as
I didn't want to admit it,

You were the first guy
That I was ready to take
That--that next step with,

And you said no.

I guess I should be
Somewhat discouraged.

I don't know, I mean,
I'm bizarrely optimistic...

Just to know that there's
Someone like you out there.

Take care, jack.

I had a date. I ditched
A perfectly good date
For a non-rehearsal.

Ok. Be patient.
He'll show.

Oh, joy, then we can
Do more "Louder, angrier."

Why not just start
Without the grand poobah?

I mean, andie's here.
She can direct us.

How about not? I've been
In the dungeon enough,
Thank you.

What, all we're gonna do
Is run a few lines.

Besides, was it not you who
Said that this is actually
your after-school activity?

Hmm?

Ok. Fine.

Pacey,
Do your deadpan thing.

Corie, when the phone rings,
I want you to do it just
Like the stage directions.

You know, confidential,
Um, laughing at times,
Provocative. Ok?

Ok. On my direction.

Ok, and begin.

The stage is over there.

You lost or something?

Kind of.

Actually, I came
Here to apologize.

For what?

For being careless
With your heart...

And for thinking that
Just because I'm older,
I knew better.

Last night, I stayed up
All night thinking about
What you said and...

You're right.

I don't know what it's like
To be in love like that.

I don't know what it's
Like to completely lose
Yourself in somebody else...

But I'd like to.

And if one of us is younger
Than the other here...

I don't think that it's you,
Henry.

You got that right.

Now...

How do you like your coffee?

Can't say
We didn't try.

Yeah.
Almost 2 whole weeks.

Better than
Finding out in 2 years.

I like it. I like
Where this is going.

Yeah, we started
Running it with andie--

All those exercises I've been
Throwing out at you
To stretch your range,

They're paying off
Beautifully.

Mr. Broderick,
We ran through it
With andie.

I like the pacing.
I like the funny.
I like the energy.

Andie, get the set designs,
Would you please?

I'm telling you, all those
Things were andie's ideas.

No, sir. I mean,
I was beginning to doubt
Myself there for a moment,

But you guys are
Definitely in the groove.

The rest is just grunt work--
Memorization, pacing,
The easy stuff.

Andie, these aren't
The set designs we discussed.

They are. I told lauren
You wanted a completely

Freestanding doorways,
Hanging windows,
And minimal props.

Well, then I changed
My mind, didn't I?

I mean, the actors will send
This stuff flying around
The stage like a trapeze.

No. But, mr. Broderick--

Andie, don't argue.
Just follow orders.

All right, let's
Run the scene again.
Same way, no changes.

Andie, you can't leave
Like this, all right?

This guy thinks
He's theater caesar.

He's just terrified
That somebody's gonna
Find out that he's not.

No. I can't work
Under these conditions.
It's hard enough as it is.

Ok. All right.
If it's hard, I'll quit.

You can't do that.
I mean, you're--
You're actually good.

Thank you, but the fact
Still remains that
You're better, all right?

And we need you in there.
Even if that guy's a jerk,
You gotta stick it out.

I mean, I need you, mcphee.

What am I supposed to do,
Resume kissing his ass?

Yeah, basically.

Well, is he gonna
Stay out of my way?

Who, broderick?
You're talking
Crazy talk.

He'd never do
Anything like that.
It'd be too easy.

All right. Then
What's in it for me?

Well, that depends.

Are we talking
In concept or in theory?

What's the verdict?
What are you gonna do?
Yes or no?

I think no.

All right. Good. I mean,
Actually, that's kind of
What I expected you to say.

So, um, I'll see you
At rehearsal then.

Well, no.
Pacey, I said no.

I'm sorry.
What did you--
I can't hear you.

It's good to hear
You're so fired up
About this project.

Pacey, I said no!

Oh, pacey, I said no.

So all your efforts to
Secure some major face time
With the new beau backfired?

Well, it turns out
That the gay version of
The "Let's be friends" speech

Is basically the same
As the straight version.

Hmm. So would that mean
That the part where you
Were rude and insensitive

And sent me off into the
Cold, dark night unescorted,
That was all for nothing?

Rude is such a strong word.
I prefer something more
Like, uh...

Momentarily self-involved.

That does have
A certain ring to it.

Am I forgiven?

Yes, jack.
You are forgiven.

You know, it's
A happy turning point
In a girl's life

When her gay best friend
Finally dumps her
For another boy.

They should
Make some sort of
Greeting card for that.

Hold on.
What happened?

What?

The good attitude.
You're wigging me out here.
Explain. What'd I miss?

Remember when you sent me
Into the night and told me
To make new friends?

Yes. I thought we already
Established that was
Not my finest hour.

I know. Well,
Let's just say that--

That while I was
Wandering around,
I may have...

Inadvertently stumbled upon somebody.

A, uh, friend?

Yeah.

Anyone I know?

Yeah. Yeah. Most definitely
Someone that you know.

Who is it?

I'm not telling you.

Who is it?
Uh-uh.

You're not
Gonna get it out of me.

Do I still have
Ladder privileges?

I suppose so.

I come bearing gifts.

You remember?
Remember that summer

We came across a pile
Of mitch and gale's
Old beatles albums,

Listened to them
On the porch
Every day for hours?

Grams kept on yelling
For us to turn down
That hippie music.

Yeah, and you wanted
To be john lennon.

You wanted to write songs
And change the world
Through music.

I did?

You did.

You weren't
Just about spielberg.

You weren't limited.
You--you were
About so many things.

I just wanted
To remind you of that.

I also wanted to remind you
That even though
Sometimes my emotions,

Particularly jealousy, uh,
Sometimes get the best of me,

I still hear you.

No matter how much we yell
Or...

No matter how quiet you are...

I hear you, dawson.

I hear you, too, joey.

Listen,
I know what's going on
Inside of you is huge.

It's ok if you
Don't share it with me.

Just promise me
You'll keep trying
To share it with someone?

Do you want
To give me a hand?

Heh.

So what do you think?

You think john here
Will inspire me
To walk my own path?

You've always walked
Your own path, dawson.

You just needed
To widen it a little.

And be on the lookout
For your yoko.
