All language subtitles for Dawsons Creek S06E22 Joey Potter and Capeside Redemption 1080p NF WEB-DL DDP5 1 x264-alfaHD (1)_track3_[eng]

It's true what they say.

Time plays tricks on you.

Memory is
An unreliable narrator.

History gets rewritten
In small ways
With each passing day.

I can't swear this is
Exactly how it happened,

But this is how it felt.

Summer had brought us home,

And we wasted no time
Assuming our roles

In what had become
An all-too-familiar
Scenario.

Pacey had fallen from grace,
Dawson's dreams were dashed,

And I was somehow
In the middle of it
All over again.

The triangle
We had all tried
So hard to put to rest

Had come back to haunt us.

Need some help?

You scared
The crap out of me.

Wuss.

What are
You doing?

It's called
Symbolic purging.

I can't stand
To have this stuff
Around anymore.

It just sits here
Mocking me.

I thought
I was the artist.

That--

Um, fine,
Laugh all you want,

But that's the whole
Movie right there,
Shot by shot.

Well, then I wouldn't
Be throwing it away
If I were you.

You're gonna need this.

Dawson, you have the chance
To do something great here,

And I can't let you
Pass that up.

I've been authorized
To use force if necessary.

Happen to bring
Your $18,000 with you?

No, I forgot that.

Jo, you're sweet,
I appreciate it,

But I have no money.

Zero. Not only that,
I'm in debt.

Thanks to your
Friend and mine,

I charged up
All my credit cards.

I'm gonna have to work
Doubles at fresh fish

All this summer
Just to pay them off.

So...

Stop by and say hi
Sometime.

Dawson leery, you are going
To let all these details
Get in the way?

Would they stop spielberg?

I don't know. I don't
Recall anything in his bio

About his best friendsquandering all of his money.

Pacey messed up.
No one's denying that.

But it wasn't
Intentional, dawson.

It never is, jo.

Never is, but it happens
Every single time,

And I don't need it
Anymore. It's...

What?

It what?

Nothing.
It's just...

Some things
Never change.

I can't believe
You're taking
His side on this.

I'm not.

I'm not taking
Anyone's side,
Dawson.

Look,
I loved your script.

It was real.
It was the truth.

It makes everything
We've been through
Seem somehow worth it.

And I don't know why
You and pacey can't
Just put your heads together

And figure something out.

Look I refuse to believe
It has to end this way.

Well, believe it, jo,
'cause I pretty much

Never want to see the guy
As long as I live.

You know what? I know
You don't mean that.

Yeah, I do.

If you give up now,
You have nothing

And it was
All just a waste.

It was a waste
Either way.

Jo, look, we can go
Back and forth for hours

On why it's virtually
Impossible for me
To make this film,

But the real reason is
I don't believe in it
Anymore.

I don't.

The script
Was a celebration
Of friendship,

Some golden era
That probably only
Ever existed in my head,

And I somehow deluded
Myself into believing

That it was a story
Of us, of all of us,

And that
It should be told.

And I don't
Believe that anymore.

Well, fortunately for you,
I know you don't mean that.

Look, you're hurt,
You're pissed off,
You want to give up,

Which is totally
Understandable,

But it sucks
For you right now

Because you're not
Dealing with somebody
Who's going to let you.

So I'm going to leave you
To your sulking for now,

But I'll be back.

And I promise you
It's not gonna be pretty.

Asses will be kicked,
Names will be taken.

Until then,
Bye-bye, old chum.

Ok, is everyone clear?

Does everyone understand
Their assignments?

What about me?
What can I do?

Anything. Anything at all
To distract me

From the sheer hellish
Boredom of summer school.

Page 12.

Miss jacobs?
That's right.

The old broad?

The one and the same.
What about her?

Well, I'm yanking you
Out of early retirement

To bring her life
To the screen.

Wait a second.
Let me get this straight.

You want me
To play the slutty teacher

That--that robbed pacey
Of his delicate flower?

Do you have a problem
With that?

You could play eve.

Sadly, eve
Didn't make the cut.

Aw, that's a shame.

Who the hell is eve?

Eh, long story.
Ambiguous ending.

Now what about pacey?
Oh, yeah.

Guess he couldn't make it.

But don't worry.
I'll take care of that.

Hey, joey.
Dougie,

Where is he?

The little brother?
Oh, he's, um, out

Or something.

Liar, liar.
Tsk, tsk, dougie.

I'm warning you, joey,
It's ugly.

Hey. Jo, come in.

I'm finally starting
To understand
These soap operas.

They're
Pretty good.

All right, dirt merchant.

Put some pants on.
You're coming with.

Yeah.

I don't think I'm going
To be able to do that.

The young and the restless
Is just about to come on.

I gotta see how j.T. Talks
His way out of this one

'cause colleen
Was about to kill him.

I wouldn't miss that for
All the pizza in capeside.

But, please, feel free.

Pull up a seat.
We got chips.

Pacey.

This is pathetic.

Well, yeah. Kind of
Comes with the territory.

Now I'm not sure what
You want me to do about it.

I want you
To come with me.

I want you
To help me figure out

How to get dawson's movie
Made on $10 and a dream.

I'd just end up ruining
The whole thing,

And dawson knows that,
I know that,

And in your heart
Of hearts you know that.

I'm a dangerous man,

A lethal weapon,

So we're all better off
If I just lay here
On my couch,

Watching my stories.

Uhh!

Pacey!
What?

Look.

I need you.
Dawson needs you.

Ok. Here's
The most crucial thing

That you're
Going to have to get

Through that pretty
Little head of yours.

Things will never be
The same between
Dawson and me.

Or any of us
For that matter.

And you're just going
To have to accept that.

I don't.

And I never will.

Ok. That's fine.

Be cheery and delightful
And whatever else it is
You want to be.

I really don't care.

Yeah, before you go--

You are so busted.

What are you
Talking about?

Is this him?
That's him.

That's it, harley.
I'm gonna have
To tell your father.

Tell him what?

He knows patrick and I
Are seeing each other.

But would he like to know
About this little bit
Of unpleasantness?

I think not.

Well, I'm not
Gonna tell hetson,

Which is good for you

Because he would like
To have wiped the floor
With your punk ass,

But now it looks like
You two owe me a favor.

No.

You don't understand.
This is a great film.

You would be doing the world
Of independent cinema
A huge favor.

I don't know.
Let me read the script.

There's no time.

Yeah, well, uh, I guess

You're out of luck, then.
Bye-bye.

Ok, look, I really
Didn't want to have
To do this,

But it appears as though
I have no choice.

Um, I'll
Go out with you.

What?
I'll go out with you.

It's what you want, right?

But just coffee, ok?
No funny business.

Yeah. Thanks for that,
But I'm not really
Interested.

What are you talking about?
I'm a film geek's dream.

Not this film geek.

How you doin'?

Oh, hey, sweetie.
Hey.

Can I fix you
Some dinner?

No, thanks.
I'm just gonna take a nap

Before the dinner shift.

Sweet dreams.

Told you
I'd be back.

How--how did--

Don't worry about it.

I just want you
To admit here and now,

Once and for all, that
You finally have no excuses.

Well, what about actors?

Learning their lines
As we speak.

Awaiting a phone call
From their director.

Ooh. I get to play
Miss jacobs.

You know, the woman
Who seduces a young boy
On the verge of manhood.

I do have some notes,
However.

Later. We'll dis--
We'll discuss it later.

So what do you say,
Dawson,

Are you ready
To take off the dress

And step up
To the plate?

Yeah, dawson,
You have no idea

What I went through
To get this stuff.

Guys, it's amazing.
And this is--

I'm touched
Beyond words, but--

But? No.
There are no buts, dawson.

All you have to do
Is shoot the movie,

Just like you were
Going to do a week ago.

And if you're telling me
That you don't believe
In friendship anymore,

I am going to throw you
Out that window.

N-no, it's not that.
I mean, I have to work.
I have a job.

Oh, no, you don't.

You're fired.

What?

It's my restaurant,
Dawson.

I'm firing you.
Case closed.

Mom--
Ok, so here's
What you're going to do.

You're gonna
Pop the champagne,

You're going to pour it
Into these silly
Little cups

Because that's
All I could find,

And then you are
Going to make a toast

To starting production
On your new film.

And I'd probably throw in
A little something

About your friends here
Who, in my opinion,
Are fairly amazing

And don't forget
To mention your mother.

What can I say?

Let's do this thing.

Yes.

Yay.

I know.

What do we think?

I think we should give him
Another 5 minutes

And try and time out
This bike thing perfectly.

And then we'll
Have him just walk
Into the video store?

I guess so. Yeah.

It's nothing like
Asking the director
To compromise

Before he's even gotten
His first shot off.

Hey, jen, um,
Right after this,

We have to go
Inside the video store

And shoot in there,
And we only have
A limited time in there,

So please tell me

They know their lines.

They just don't know
What order they go in.

What, no sprinkles?

Kidding.

Any word on
Our special delivery?

In transit.

Ok, why do I not smell
Eggs florentine?

Excuse me?

I thought
We had an agreement.

I let you
Crash on my couch,

You cook for me.

Elaborate,
Mouth-watering,

Professionally prepared
Meals, well garnished.

I'm really flattered
By your faith in
My culinary abilities,

But I can't do it today.

I got other things
To do,

But I left all
The fixings out for you,

And you really do
Owe it to yourself

As a modern bachelor
To develop some sort

Of rudimentary
Cooking skills.

And chicks
Dig that kind of thing.

And, you know,
Those other guys, too.
They like it.

My god,
Look at that.

Oh, show
Some respect, man.

She's old enough
To be somebody's mother.

Yeah, a zygote's.

Besides, I happen to have it
On pretty good authority

That mothers have
Excellent sex lives.

Good afternoon.
Can we help you?

Um, yeah--
Cut, cut.

Audrey, you're gonna
Have to take the robe off.

You're kidding me.

I thought
We'd be in tight enough

So we wouldn't see it,
But it's right there.

This is,
Like, my dream day.

Ok, dawson,
What if I just show
A little shoulder?

I need bare skin.

You need, like,
Spaghetti straps.

She's right. You
Have to have something

To match the wardrobe
Audrey would be wearing

If pacey junior hadn't
Walked into her chest

With a jelly doughnut.

We don't have
An e.T.A. On that
Dress yet, do we?

Yes. Spin cycle.
Your mom says

It's gonna be about,
Uh, 20 minutes.

Uh, excuse me.
Is there any scenario

In which she
Could just take off
All her clothes?

You know,
At least for one take?

Because then, you know,
I feel like I could
Really give you

An appropriate
On-camera react--aah!

Can I have 5 minutes
Alone with this guy?

You don't know how long
I dreamed of hearing
You say that. Ow!

What?
Nothing.

Ok, george,
Keep doing exactly
What you've been doing.

Guys will be going
A little bit tighter
Next time,

And, audrey, if you can
Just lower the robe down
Just above your elbows.

Patrick, I know
You got it in you
To imagine the rest.

Think of how many more
Patients you would have

If you seized upon this
Wonderful opportunity
For free publicity.

If I have to give you
$200, how is it free?

This you will get back
With a credit in the film.

A very special thanks
To dr. Elice briscoe,
The friendly dentist.

The dentist who cares
About people's dreams,
I mean, think of it.

And look at that smile.

It's a crime to keep you
Behind this desk.

Would you do us
The honor of perhaps

Coming in and doing
A little cameo in the film?

Uh, dawson--

Hey, jack,
Can we use that bell?

Yeah, done.

Great. Sorry. What?

Well, I just think
With the light streaming
Through the window,

We're totally going
To be able to see
Through audrey's dress.

Ha ha! I know.

You know?
Yes.

That's the natural
Lighting effect

I've been waiting
All day to get.

That's why I didn't do
The wide shot first.

So is this
Gonna work or what?

That is perfection.
She knows?

Yeah, of course
She knows.

I'm not gonna do
Something like that
Without asking her first.

What the hell is this kid
Doing to my store?

He's not doing anything.
I told you

We will put everything back
Exactly as we found it.

You also told me you
Wouldn't break anything

And that you'd
Be out of here by 2:00.

Hey, joey,
I just wanted
To let you to know

I can't block that street
Anymore. It's almost 5:00.

Oh, thank god, the law.

Officer, can you get
These kids out of my store?

Is there a problem
Here, joey?

No. You know what?
There's no problem.

Look, I understand
That we're going longer
Than we anticipated,

And I appreciate
So much that you're
Letting us be here,

But we just need--
It's friday.

Do you know what people do
On a friday night?

Rent videos.
Exactly,

Which is why I want them
Out of here now.

We need
10 more minutes.

You know what, sir?

Why don't we, um,
Talk about this outside?

Thank you.

Ok. So now
What do we do?

We shoot quickly while
Doug has the guy distracted.

And if
It doesn't work?

Uh, bribery.

Dawson, we don't
Have any money.

No, but we do have
An abundance of hot girls,

Which are
As good as currency
In many countries.

You're joking.

You're joking
At a time like this?

Dawson,
We have yet to
Finish this scene,

We're losing
The light, we're
Losing the location.

Hey, without chaos,
There'd be no happy accidents.

Hello, hello,
Hello, hello.

Why are we not
Filming here, leery?

The light is perfect.

The leading lady
Is perfect.

What the hell
Are you doing here?

Well, that sexy mom
Of yours

Made me an offer
I couldn't refuse.

Ha ha! All I did was
E-mail him the script.

It took me 2 days
To bloody download the thing.

But when I did,
I said this is brilliant.

I said this is
Just the sort of project

That todd needs
To be involved with.

So I'm here, fully
On board, ready to work

In whatever menial capacity
You may require me.

I could really use a d.P.
Done.

And a camera operator.

Done again. Just get me
A triple espresso

And I'm good to go.
Got it.

Um, todd,
I'm the director now.

Right you are, and
A damn good one, too.

Um...

I'll go.
Oh, joey.

Don't even think
About it.
But--

All right,
Listen up people.

Chop, chop. This man here
Has a movie to make,

And we are gonna make it
For him or die trying.

So let me
Get this straight.

You've developed some sort
Of superstitious belief

That if you eat
Steamed broccoli every day,

You'll never die?

Exactly.

Well, you see the problem
Is, sweetheart,

Is these are huge,
Gigantic pieces of broccoli.

I'm looking for more
Of a broccolini-type deal.

A broccolini?

Exactly.

Well, off you go there.

You know, in california,
This is really a very
Reasonable request.

No way.
Not gonna happen.

Not in a million years.

I totally understand
Your concern. I really do,

But it's an incredibly
Character-defining moment

Not just for you.
For all 3 characters,
Explains your dynamic.

I said not happening.

What's so funny?

She can't swim.
She--

Ew, no thanks.
I'm trying to quit.

No, it's not to eat.

I need you to chop this up
And serve it to todd.

You are his new
Personal assistant.

I've been wrapped
For the day.

Can't you find
Someone else to do it?

Someone who's not
Number one on the call sheet?

No. Come on. Get up.

There are divas out there
More impossible than you

Who require
Our immediate attention.

Oh! Fine!
Thank you.

Ok.

Hey, hey, hey,
Get out of here!

Aah!

And cut!

Great! We got it.

Oh, come on.
It's just a small donation.

You're sure
I'm not a lesbian?

Yes, I'm sure.

I mean, it would
Explain a lot.

Otherwise, why do I
Hate this next-door
Neighbor girl so much?

And why would
I rather hang out

With this asexual
Film dork instead
Of go to france?

Because maybe you're
Not ready to go to france.

Maybe as much as you hate
To admit it to yourself,

You had a sucky childhood
And you still have
A lot of growing up to do.

He must have been
A really good kisser,
The gay guy.

You haven't listened
To one word that I've said.

Have you worked
In a restaurant before?

Yeah, I worked
A kitchen up in boston.

I actually
Studied under one of
The best cooks up there,

But now I guess
I'm just doing this.

Which is
What exactly?

Honestly? I'm just
Helping out a friend.

You know what?
Don't go any place.

I'll be right back
With your change.

Hi.

You don't remember me,
Do you?

No, but I really
Wish I did.

Well, you sure changed
Your pitch a lot
Since this morning.

The receptionist
From the dentist's office,
Of course. I'm sorry.

No, no. You really
Don't remember me.

Oh, come on.
From high school?

I mean, it's kind
Of a blow to my ego.

You used to follow me
Around everywhere.

It was kind
Of pathetic, but...

Now here we are
5 years later

And it's like you don't
Even know who I am.

Here you go, christy.

Thanks. Nice
Seeing you, pacey.

Christy?
Yeah, yeah,
Christy livingstone.

Christy!

Curtains in
The kitchen window

Certainly are an eyesore.

Don't know
How gale can bear
Looking at them.

I'll be sure to alert
The interior decorating police.

How ya doin'?

Sittin' up here on the porch
Watchin' everybody.

It's very nice
Seeing all you children

Together again

Having one fun
Last day in capeside.

One last day, please.

I'm sure that this
Isn't gonna be anyone's
Last day in capeside,

I mean, I'm sure
That we'll all have reasons

To come back here,
You know, and--and we're
Just moving to new york.

It's not like we're--

Dying.

That's right.
We're not.

We're just beginning
One more chapter

In our lives
Together.

A very nice
Long one.

Do you miss this place?

Oh...Every day.

Do I regret
Leaving it?

Never.

Hi.

Hey, dawson.

How you guys doin'?

Whew. Good.
We're good.

Couldn't be better.

Good. I hate
To interrupt,

But--

Cab's here.

No, actually, it's
Just that you're, uh,

Well, you're...

Kinda in my shot.

Oh.

Oh, well.

I can't think
Of a more appropriate way

To say good-bye to our old
Next-door neighbor, can you?

Frank capra
Of capeside?

No. Come here.

See ya.

Bye.

Bye-bye.

We love you.

Bye.

Bye.

We love you.

Wow. They're really
Never leaving, are they?

I don't think so.

Bye!

Bye.

Miss you, cuties!

What is this feeling?

It just seems
Like everything's

Getting smaller and smaller.

It's all still there,

But I just
Can't touch it.

I think it's
Called good-bye.

The truth? Of course
I'm tell you the truth.

Why would I lie
About these things?

Pacey witter,

Bad-ass stud
And man about town?

Ok, you're right,
I would lie
About those things,

But I did sail
Around the caribbean,
And for a while there,

I actually
Did own a bmw.

I promise you, that
Is the gospel truth.

I see.

So now after
Much soul-searching,

You've come back
Right to where you started.

Well, come on,

I'm not exactly
Right where I started.

I'm talkin' to you,
Aren't I?

Yeah.

Yeah, you are.

Or you were.

I wa--oh, no,
You're leaving?

I'm sorry.
I--I have to go.

I should've
Left ages ago,

But, um...

You can call me.

Really?

You should...

Call me.

Here.

I will,
Absolutely will.

Bye, pacey.

Good-bye,
Christy.

Ha ha.

Wasn't that--

Christy livingstone,
Yes, it was.

Talking to you?

Talkin' to me.

In fact,
Flirting with me.

She gave me
Her phone number.

You know what
This means, right?

You know, christy,
She's like, uh--

Metaphor, I know.

She represents all
Of the high school girls

You thought you'd
Never be able to have

Because you were such a loser.

Exactly.

And the fact that
All the normal girls

Who haven't been
Surgically enhanced--

Girls like me and jen
And audrey and andie--

The fact that we've spent
Every second of the past 5 years

Telling you that
You weren't a loser,

That means nothing to you.

I-I'm sorry, you lost me
There in the middle.

Maybe I should
Explain the whole
Metaphor thing again.

Why am I even
Talking to you?

Hi. Um, I'm here
To pick up a to-go order.

The name's potter.

Right. Right.
Coming right up.

Thank you.

So how's it going?

How's what going?

You know what
I'm talkin' about.

Well,
It's not too late

For you to find out
For yourself.

Well, yeah,
But if I did that,

Then I'd have to eat
All those fine words
I said the other day,

And I actually
Believe them.

So, what I was hoping
Was that, instead,

You could just
Take this to dawson.

It's not everything,

But it's everything that
I could get in one day,

And I'll get the rest
Whenever I get the rest.

But what I was hoping is
That you would take that

To him and then...

Tell him
I said congratulations

And all that good stuff.

I could.

All right.

But I won't.

'cause you know what,
Pace, you were right.

This isn't my fight.

You know,
Never has been and...

It never will be.

So, what,
After all these years,

You're just
Gonna wash your hands
Of the both of us?

I'm gonna try.

Take care.

Ok.

We're friends, ok?

No matter how much
Body hair we acquire,

Deal?

Deal.

And we don't talk
About this again. Deal?

You got it.

Why'd you have
To bring this up anyway?

And cut. Perfect.

Everybody, thank you
For a terrific first day.

That's a wrap.
I'll see you all tomorrow.

All right.

Hey, thank you.

Thank you
Very much.

Oh, my apologies, sir.
Force of habit.

No, stay there.

Stay there.

You bailed
My ass out today.

That's right,
You little bugger.

My bloody dogs
Are barkin'.

Makes you feel for
The little people,
Doesn't it?

Makes you wanna
Go back and apologize

To every crew member
You ever threw
A hissy fit at, I bet.

Hell, no.
Makes me wanna produce.

Anything else I can
Do for you, mr. Carr?

Yeah, call me
Todd, love.

I tried that
Already, remember?

You told me
To call you mr. Carr.

I like you, blondie.

You're a saucy one.

You're a bit
Of a tart, aren't ya?

Excuse me. Did you
Just call me a hooker?

What? I meant it
In a good way.

You know,
Come to think of it,

There is something
You can do for me.

Back rub. Now.

Ok, you've got
To be kidding me.

Go on, you know
You want to.

Come on,
Give a geezer a rub.

See what it's like
To lay your hands
On a real director.

You--you know,
Dawson was right.

You are an arrogant
Little bastard.

Who, me?

Look, I'm
Totally misunderstood.

Between you and me,
Sweetheart,

It's really
Just a numbers game.

I figure, you know,

Eventually some bird's
Gonna find it
All very charming.

Ok.

Oh, that's good.

Too good...Actually.

Might make a bloke
Wanna invite a bird

Up to his room
For a nightcap.

What do you say?

Absolutely.

Hey.

Hey, what are you
Still doin' here?

Mm, I thought
I'd stick around
To congratulate you.

You were great today.

Well, if anyone
Was great today,

It's because of you.

I have you to thank
For this, you know.

Oh, that may
Very well be true,

But--

You can save your speech
For sundance.

I'm exhausted.

Spend the night.

And what
Would we call that?

Life imitating
Art imitating life?

I...Don't know.

I'm too tired
To figure it out.

It's ok if
You don't want to.
I understand.

It's
A little weird.

Not to mention
Somewhat dangerous.

What do you mean?

I don't know.

What if you woke up
And you were 15 again?

The funny thing is--is--

I don't feel
That way anymore.

Watching you shoot
Those scenes today,

It was like this...

Huge weight
Has been lifted.

Yeah.

Yeah, I know
What you mean.

Shooting this movie

Is gonna save me
Tons of money
On therapy.

Today was a great day.

Oh, the best.

I mean, how many
Truly great days

Are we gonna
Have in our lives?

I don't know.

Who knows
How many you get?

When they do happen
To come along,
Though,

I hope
You're close by,

At least
For a few of 'em.

Me, too.

So how would you
Describe your movie?

If somebody asked you,
What would you say?

I would say...

It's about a girl
Who wanted more
Than what she had...

Who had to grow up
To realize

That she already had
Everything she ever
Could've wanted.

I like that.

I don't wanna
Close my eyes.

Why?

I'm afraid
When I open 'em,
You won't be here.

Close your eyes,
Dawson.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you
Doin' here?

Uh, the same thing
You are, I'd suppose.

Actually, I
Came here to meet--

Meet with joey?

Yeah, so did I.

I get it.

Amateur peace broker.

So where is she?

I don't know,

But I'd say that she
Is probably not coming.

I think she has
This kooky notion

That you and I are
Gonna work this out
Between ourselves.

Well, that's...

Not gonna happen.

Yeah, I know.
That's what I told her,

But we're talkin' about a girl
Who's never really listened

To a single word that either
You or I has ever told her,

And I did, I said it to her,
I said, "Look, jo,

Things will never be the same
Between dawson and I."

She doesn't listen to me.

You know her,
She's stubborn, that girl.

Well,
If she's not comin',
I'm gonna take off.

I've got
Somewhere to be.

Hold on
For one second.

Look, you said some
Pretty crappy things
The other day.

Yeah. So did you.

Yes, I did.

And I meant them 100%.

I know,
So did I, pace,

And that's the thing,

I don't know how
We get past that.

Well, maybe we don't.

Maybe that's the point

That we just
Don't get past it,

We realize that...

We can't go back
To the way things
Used to be,

And there's nothing
We can do about that

'cause the guys
That we are now

Are worlds apart
From the guys that
We were back then.

The only tie that
Really binds us together

Is the fact that we
Still love the same woman.

It always comes back
To that, doesn't it?

Yes, it does.

Yes, it does,
And you know what?

I don't really regret
A single second

That I spent with her,

And I'm guessing
You don't either.

In fact, I really
Consider us pretty lucky...

That a--a woman like that

Would give either one of us
The time of day.

You know,
It makes sense.

What does?

Why it never worked out
For either one of us.

All we wanted was her.

So much so
That we destroyed
Our friendship...

And in the end,
All she ever wanted

Was for us
To be friends again.

Ok, I'm gonna
Ask you this once,

And then I promise you
I'll never ask it again.

Is it possible?

For us to be
Friends again?

Anything's possible.

Fair enough.

Look, uh,
This is for you.

What's this?

Well, I hope
You don't mind,

But I took the liberty
Of going to several
Local businessmen

And asking them
If they'd like to invest

In a very promising
Young filmmaker,

And, by and large,
They were all very receptive,

Though there was
This one dentist,

And I don't know how
She got this in her head,

But she seems to think
She's an actress,

So you might have
To give her a little role,

Like a cameo at most.

Just warnin' ya.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

I used to be afraid
Of so many things...

That's a wrap!

That I'd never grow up.

That I'd be trapped
In the same place

For all eternity.

That my dreams would
Forever be shy of my reach.

It's true what they say.

Time plays tricks on you.

One day you're dreaming,

The next your dream
Has become your reality.

au revoir.

And now that this scared
Little girl no longer
Follows me wherever I go,

I miss her.

I do.

'cause there are things
I wanna tell her--

To relax,
To lighten up,

That it is
All going to be ok.

I want her to know that
Meeting people who like you,

Who understand you,

Who actually accept you
For who you are,

Will become an increasingly
Rare occurrence.

Jen, jack, audrey,
Andie, pacey, and dawson.

These people who
Contributed to who I am,

They are with me
Wherever I go,

And as history
Gets rewritten

In small ways
With each passing day,

My love for them
Only grows.

Because the truth is...
It was the best of times.

Mistakes were made,
Hearts were broken,

Harsh lessons learned,

But all of that has receded
Into fond memory now.

How does it happen?

Why are we so quick
To forget the bad

And romanticize the good?

Maybe it's because
We need to believe

That the time
We spent together

Actually meant something,

That we were there for each
Other in a time in our lives
That defined us all,

A time in our lives
That we will never forget.

I can't swear this
Is exactly how it happened.

But this is how it felt.
