Episode #502 - "The Lost Weekend"

Dawson- Has spent the weekend with Joey at Worthington. Its his last day and he calls his home phone to check his messages. Joey realizes he is trying to listen to the message from her, much to her chagrin, she tries to persuade him not to. He does anyway and now is confused how they could have had such a great weekend and she doesnt want to have anything to do with him. Joey has to go drop a class, so Dawson gets the campus tour from Audrey, who he thinks is a cool girl.

Joey- Joey goes to see her writing professor to drop her class. She is still upset about getting a C on her kiss story. He signs her paper to drop and she waits in a huge line. Hours later she reaches the drop desk and is told her Professor signed a fake name. She storms in to ask him why. He explains to her she is too good at writing and he didnt want to lose her in his class. (My assumption: This Professor stares at Joey while she is writing something for him. He seems a little more interested in her than just student/teacher.)

Jack & Jen- Jack is still bugging Jen about not having any sex life. He says to her that for her being a slut she hasnt had sex since hes known her. They are walking the streets of Boston and find they are lost. Coincidentally, they end up outside of a radio station and Charlie is working there as a DJ. He calls for Jen to come inside and she goes on the radio with him. They have a cute little debate. (My Prediction: Jens appearance on the air with Charlie got listeners interested and they offer her a job working with Charlie.) Jen goes back to Charlies dorm room and makes the first move. They end up having sex. Afterward, Jen is embarrassed by what shed done and tries to make a quick getaway. Charlie says to please not leave because then hell have to start all over again next Friday and not meet a girl helikes as much as he likes Jen. How Cute! :)

Pacey- Pacey actually had more than a 1 minute stint this week. We met Melanie, the Deans niece that was traveling with Pacey on the yacht. She has been seeing Pacey throughout the summer. Doug comes to visit Pacey and tells him he has a friend that owns a restaurant and hell give Pace a job there. Pacey wants no part of working there UNTIL . . . He and Melanie go out to eat and she picks up the check. He is offended and she says she doesnt mind paying for her slacker boyfriend. He then goes back to the restaurant and gets a job as a prep cook. He meets one of the waitstaff, played by Lourdes Benedicto. He says he doesnt like girls who smoke as she is outside having a cigarette. She gives him her cigs and says not to give her one when she asks. Barf! I dont like her already!

Dawson and Joey - At the end of the show, Dawson is at the airport ready to leave without saying goodbye to Joey. Audrey tells Joey he left and Joey rushes to the airport. She talks to Dawson about their relationship and Dawson says to her that they can either go their separate ways and meet up again in 4 years being unconnected or he can stay with her. He Stays! Another Gag Moment!

Joey:

Joey is out to dinner with Jen and Audrey. While on her way to the bathroom, she spots Pacey in the kitchen. She is shocked and talks to Jen about it. Jen tells her hes been in town for 3 weeks. Joey asks why she didnt tell her and Jen explains that Pacey didnt want her to.
When Joey and Audrey are back in their room the next day, Audrey asks whats up with this Pacey guy. Audrey convinces Joey to go and see him, because she is pretty and doesnt know it and she is smart and doesnt know it.She explains to Joey that she probably doesnt like relationships because they are messy and unpredictable.
Joey goes to see Pacey. They start making small talk about their relationship and Pacey says, Oh Yeah, we dated once, didnt we? They still have fantastic chemistry and she comes on board his boat and they continue talking.

Jen:

While at dinner with Joey and Audrey, Jen receives a call from Charlie. Its a booty call and she rushes right over. The next day, Jen realizes she doesnt even know where Charlie is from, so they decide to try to go 12 hours without any sex. After hours of trying to find something in common, they start to have sex, but have no condoms. Charlie takes Jen to break into the student center to steal FREE condoms. They do it on the student center floor.

Dawson:

Dawson goes back to Capeside to inform his parents he is leaving his college in California and moving to Boston. Mitch is very mad and disappointed in Dawson. He thinks he is just chasing a girl and it will ruin all the dreams he has had for filmmaking. Mitch tells him hes not choosing his own path hes just following Joey down hers. (So True!) He sticks to his guns though and moves in with Jen, Jack and Grams.

Jack:

Jack is having a blast with his new buddies. They ask him to join his fraternity. Jack says he doesnt know and tells them hes gay. They all laugh and say they already knew that and that was one of the reasons they wanted him, so they looked diversified. Jack is excited and joins!

Pacey:

Pacey is at work and pissed that hes just slicing potatoes instead of cooking. Karen keeps coming in with an attitude and Pacey wants to know why. Later, Paceys boss throws out the 40 lbs of potatoes he has spent forever slicing and Pacey freaks. It seems that his boss was just giving him slicing practice before letting him actually cook. He also tells Pacey that Karens problem is because she wanted that job and he didnt feel she had enough patience for it.

At the End of the Show:
Dawson is waiting for Joey when she gets home. He tells her it didnt go well and they decide to go for coffee. Then we see Mitch driving in his car eating an ice cream cone. The top of the cone falls off and Mitch proceeds to chase it around the car while driving; NOT a good idea! He finally looks back up and it appears a car is headed right for him.
