Television episodes that traumatized 80s kids.Episode 201 kicks off summer with Gen-X nostalgia to keep you entertained while soaking in the sun.It begins by scaring you out of the water as we look back at the classic movie Jaws for its 50th anniversary. A killer shark stalks beachgoers and, in doing so, creates the 'summer blockbuster' movie. We do a deep dive into the origins of the film and what makes it stand the test of time so well.We go way back in the day and down a rabbit hole as we look for the origins of a lesser-known 80s urban legend. Polybius was a video game that was said to cause mental and physical issues for its players, but did it exist at all? That is the question that we try to find the answer to. Childhood trauma is on the menu in this week's Top 5. Sitcoms are supposed to make us laugh. In the 1980s and 1990s, though every now and then they terrified us. These were the 'very special' television episodes that tackled more serious issues.

The worst storm in 30 years is on its way to Capeside, and no one seems to know but Grams and the editors of the Farmer's Almanac. Drue's obnoxious behavior in English class having doomed himself, Joey, and Dawson to have a three-way Two Gentlemen Of Verona debate for class the next day, prep is underway during Joey's Yacht Club shift. (Why are the future debate adversaries preparing together? It's more convenient for the plot that way, of course!) Presumably Joey's only getting away with all this slacking because Mrs. Valentine is an alumna of one of Andie's safety schools, and is busy interviewing Andie as a prospective applicant; their conversation quickly becomes an investigation of Andie's mental health. Since Joey couldn't join him, Pacey is celebrating his first-ever A by going sailing with Jen, which is why they're on the water -- with a dead radio -- when the storm starts to kick up. Once it gets too dangerous for Pacey to try to return to shore, he decides to head for a cove so secret he doesn't even know its name, but trusts that Dawson does. But given Dawson's record as a seaman, surely there's no one left in town who would let him borrow his boat, which is why it's a good thing that crotchety old Mr. Brooks (Harve Presnell!) showed up in his for his weekly prime rib special at the club, and that Drue knows where to find his spare keys. Find out whether anyone gets washed away in The Perfect Storm with our episode on "Two Gentlemen Of Capeside"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

School is back in session for the gang's senior year. Joey is excited to get through this to what's next, and Pacey's just excited to be around her. That only lasts until the end of the first day, when new temporary guidance counselor Mitch -- apparently on leave from his job as general manager of the restaurant -- calls Pacey in to tell him that instead of on the True Love he should have been in town making up the three junior classes he failed in summer school. Mitch alerts Dawson that Pacey's in big trouble, and though Dawson is a bitch about it, he does hear it when Mitch suggests that he pass the news on to someone who does care if Pacey lives or dies. Speaking of whom: Joey needs a job, and Andie recommends that she apply to wait tables at the yacht club, which is full of cute rich boys and big tips...here at the end of the tourist season. Never mind: Joey takes Andie's advice and lies about connections to big wigs on the club board, getting her hired on the spot, and putting her in the path of "Owen Ross," scion of the family she claimed to know. Jen is starting to get antsy that she hasn't heard from Henry in a while, but no, his email account isn't offline: he gets in touch with Jack just fine, wussily asking HIM to tell Jen Henry wants to take a break. Don't YOU take a break on us: things are looking up with our episode on "Failing Down"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

After three months at sea, Joey and Pacey are finally returning to Capeside just in time for their senior year of high school, and a lot has changed in their absence. Dawson's taken up photography. Dawson and Jack have started a house painting business. Jen is trying a long-distance relationship with Henry, who got recruited from football camp to a fancy private school. Doug and Pacey's sister Gretchen (Sasha Alexander, the future Isles of Rizzoli & Isles!) has taken a year off from college, and taken Pacey's spot on Doug's couch. Bessie has made the B&B profitable, perhaps in part by renting out her sister's room. Here's what hasn't changed: Dawson still sucks. Pacey and Joey decide how best to strategize about their reunion with Dawson (and boy, THAT'S probably something they didn't miss doing all summer) with an assist from Jen, trying to salve her guilt over her part in how Dawson found out about Joey and Pacey in the first place by easing Joey and Dawson back into each other's proximity. Does Dawson deserve this kid-glove treatment? You already know the answer! Deep in the background, Andie meets and flirts with a couple of French guys, one of whom looks a LOT like that gay kid Danny from the then-most recent season of The Real World in New Orleans! Prepare to dock for our episode on "Coming Home"! NEW CLUB CAMPAIGN!

After all the heightened emotion of Season 3, we thought we should take a breath...to take your calls! Get ready to hear us -- and your fellow listeners -- muse about such topics as what sorts of local violence might have been visited upon Dawson during his summer in Philadelphia, how best to support friends and loved ones who loved Dawson when the show was first on, what it was like to work at a Dawson's-affiliated retailer at the turn of the millennium, and much much more! (Don't think YOU'RE getting off the hook, Sugarman.) Climb onto the nearest sailboat and listen! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Since Gale and Mitch's second marriage is, let's face it, fake, they've thrown a ceremony together in a matter of days. They're also throwing Dawson and Joey together, because Gale -- (a) an adult woman who (b) works with one of Dawson's other very close friends -- has asked Joey to be her Maid Of Honor, meaning she and Best Man Dawson keep seeing each other on various nuptial errands. Even Dawson, however, is having an increasingly difficult time pretending that Joey wouldn't rather be elsewhere, particularly once she finds out about Pacey's plan to spend the summer sailing to Key West on the True Love. She's still so oppressed by her supposedly beautiful friendship with Dawson that she won't admit what she really wants. Will Pacey's choice to paint "ASK ME TO STAY" on the wall he rented for her change her mind? Jen is still pouting so much about Henry daring to go to football camp that Grams gets sick of it, throws Jen in the car with the McPhees, and hits the road to try to run down his bus so Jen can get over herself and kiss Henry before he goes to Ohio. It's a good start, but isn't Grams's other boarder Jack also carrying a torch for someone who might want a smooch from him...? It's no lie: we made all our sweethearts (you) a new episode about "True Love"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

It's the penultimate episode of the season on a high school show, so of course it's time for the big dance! Dawson dredges up some long-ago pact that if he and Joey were both single, they'd go together as friends, and she agrees to honor it even though she clearly knows friendship is the last thing on his mind. Andie pretends to be entertaining several invitations to save face with Pacey. After making a huge production about how retrograde the prom concept is, Jen invites Henry. And Jack is planning to bring Ethan, until the ticket-selling troll tells him it's not allowed. Andie and Joey are ready to boycott the event, but then Dawson gets the idea that they throw a competing dance for the two gay guys and everyone else who'd rather be on their side. When Pacey does finally invite Andie, the stage is set for Dawson to rub Pacey's face in Dawson's continuing ability to control Joey. Oh and also Gale and Mitch are fooling around again, but we're trying so, so hard not to acknowledge them at all. Even though most people have an anti-good time at the event, you should still listen to our episode on "The Anti-Prom"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

The summer tourist season is kicking off in Capeside with a regatta. This might have been a low-key race for new sailor Pacey and the True Love, the little boat that could, if it were happening a couple of weeks earlier. Unfortunately, we're in the post-discovery era, so Dawson has to Dawson all over it. Leery's Fresh Fish is sponsoring the True Love? Fine: Dawson will just enter Joseph McPhee's boat, the Carpe Diem; THEN ask the McPhee siblings if he may use it; THEN pay the sponsorship fee himself but sail on behalf of the Potter B&B. When will he have time to learn the rules of sailing? Great question: he won't, and that's going to be a problem. In the far background, Jen has been giving Henry the silent treatment ever since he tried to fool around with her when Grams wasn't home, so he's been holding a silent vigil everywhere she goes, holding up a sign asking her to forgive him. No one is sufficiently annoyed by this behavior, least of all Jen. Show US love by listening to our episode on "Show Me Love"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

It seems as though, once Joey broke the seal in the last episode and initiated a kiss with Pacey, they basically have not stopped kissing since. And that's a problem, because the longer they wait, the worse it's going to be when Dawson finds out. The plan is for Pacey to tell him. But then Joey stops him and says SHE should be the one to tell him. But then Dawson interrupts and it kind of seems like NO ONE has to tell him...but how could that be? It turns out that this day was unusually eventful, so we see the events from Pacey's, then Joey's, and then Dawson's perspectives, as Capeside's biggest secret is finally told. This may not be our shortest episode, because it's about "The Longest Day"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Dan talks about Trump's first 100 days of his 2nd term, during this VERY Special edition of the DOD Show!

It's spring break, but of course Capeside's biggest nerds aren't going to Fort Lauderdale: they're heading to Vermont for what is apparently their traditional visit with Dawson's Aunt Gwen (Julie Bowen!). Pacey wasn't going to come, but the kids' old and previously never-mentioned friend Will Krudski (Rodney Scott) made a surprise visit to pull a Jake Hanson-- er, tell us all his deal as a working-class ne'er-do-well with daddy issues and a heart of gold and then leave for his own show (spoiler?), and since there's nothing to do in Capeside, they're going to an even smaller and duller town. Also joining is Andie, because someone has to have a crush on Will to make us think he's a viable leading man. Will Dawson stop thinking about his own reinvention long enough to notice all the eye-fucking Pacey and Joey are doing? Apparently not before their first night at Gwen's, because the sleeping arrangements end up putting Joey and Pacey in the one bed together for It Happened One Night high jinks. Back in Capeside, Fresh Fish server Shelley (Sarah Lancaster) has the hots for new busboy Henry, and Jen's not just telling her they're dating because otherwise they wouldn't have a plotline; and the surprise death of a longtime friend has Gale and Mitch reflecting on what they've lost...and could possibly regain? Close your eyes and lean in for our episode on "Stolen Kisses"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Our joy at Pacey and Joey FINALLY having a good kiss is ruined by...well, Joey, acting like she didn't like it and isn't interested, so that Pacey, embarrassed, decides to pretend he didn't mean it. Bessie tells Joey to talk about it with a friend, since nothing Bessie is saying is what Joey seems to want to hear (okay advice); Doug tells Pacey to take Dawson somewhere nostalgic to remind him about their long and meaningful friendship, then tell him what's going on (great advice?). Unfortunately -- for all of us, really -- Buzz and two of his little buddies somehow track Pacey and Dawson to their old fort in the woods and crash their camping trip. And a girls' night out for Joey is complicated by the presence of Andie, who still doesn't seem to be totally over Pacey. It's also complicated for Jen, who seems like she mostly agrees to the hang because she's hurt that Henry didn't ask her to his birthday party, then gets a big surprise when she and the girls hit up the roller rink. Jack is trying to have a TOTALLY PLATONIC boys' weekend with Ethan while Mr. McPhee is out of town on a business trip, but it turns out Mr. McPhee has cancelled that trip, unbeknownst to Jack, and seems determined not to notice that three's a crowd.

AJ's about to be the youngest person in his department at Unnamed College to something something no one cares, and Joey's going back to Boston to be his date for a night of listening to him read his writing and then do some ballroom dancing. Pacey warns her not to get too caught up in the fantasy, tamping down her excitement before she's even gotten on the train. It's just as well, since AJ's so caught up in prep for the event that he sends his lifelong best friend Morgan -- a GIRL Morgan -- to retrieve Joey and unintentionally show off all the history AJ and Morgan share. (She even knows his actual first name!) Pacey has his own annoying boy to deal with: Buzz (Jonathan Lipnicki!), his new mentee. Making Buzz help with boat refurbishment leads to a conversation about whom the True Love was named for and whether Pacey has even kissed her yet -- something that seems to strike a resonant chord in Pacey, such that by the end of the episode, everything's changed. Way off in a whole other part of town, Dawson is still helping Gale set up her new and as-yet unnamed restaurant, though it doesn't take long for him to make her wish he had anything else to do. Take off your glass slippers and get comfy: we made you a new episode on "Cinderella Story"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

When Principal Green expelled him in the last episode, Matt Caufield warned him that his father was going to come after Principal Green with everything he had, and he wasn't lying: the episode opens with outraged parents screaming through an emergency meeting about this supposed attack on a boy who was just playing a prank. Also outraged: Gale, when she sees that her former intern Sherry, now a field reporter, is on the scene filing the first of several obviously biased pieces about the situation. Pacey suggests to a fired-up Joey that she should organize a protest -- something she doesn't quite hear until AJ tells her the same thing. When Gale complains to Dawson about Sherry's uninformed reporting, Dawson convinces her that the two of them could put together their own one-camera shoot telling the true story. But not everyone is on the right side of history: a concerned citizen vaguely threatening Bessie's business has her too stressed to join Joey's revolution.

The school board and PTA have selected several student artists to create murals on the walls of Capeside High School, and Joey -- who recently remembered art was something she used to be into -- is one of them! Her concept involves a Chinese hanzi even though she's not Chinese herself, as far as we know; nevertheless, it is still sad when her work ends up getting vandalized. Pacey takes a break from tormenting his new roommate, Deputy Doug, to go on the case of who ruined Joey's work and ends up...well, exactly where you'd probably expect after a new rich jerk was just introduced in the last episode. Principal Green is thrilled to tell Andie that her PSAT scores put her in the top 50,000 students and on track for a National Merit Scholarship. This shakes something loose in her; quitting the disciplinary committee is just the beginning. You'll only be punishing yourself if you skip our episode on "Crime & Punishment"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Joey does NOT have Valentine's Day plans with "college boy," so what will the gang be doing for the Hallmarkiest of holidays? Attending an ANTI-Valentine's Day party thrown by Matt Caulfield, some rich jerk from school we've never heard of before -- and since the event is very secret and exclusive so it doesn't get raided by cops, finding it requires a little tradecraft. Everyone should be motivated to figure out where to go, since they have a visitor to impress: Kate (Alexandra Breckenridge!), Jack's ex-girlfriend from Rhode Island. She's fresh off a breakup, so Pacey decides the best way to get her through it is for Dawson to try to hook up with her -- and you KNOW Joey is as judgy about that as she was about the party itself until she actually showed up for it. Elsewhere, it's finally time for the date Henry and Jen have been talking about for several episodes. Henry got the meal comped, but still wants to arrive with a gift, and the best way he can think of to make some quick cash is not to do more odd jobs for his elderly benefactress but to sell his plasma...a lot.

On today's SPECIAL Quick Start episode, we take a deep dive into one of the most miraculous stories you'll ever hear. Christopher Gunderson was born with a rare, life-threatening condition that left his stomach and intestines unable to function. For 16 years, he survived through feeding tubes and surgeries, never able to eat or drink like a normal kid. But then, something incredible happened. After attending a healing service led by evangelist Bruce Van Natta, Christopher felt something powerful happening inside him—his body shaking, his stomach pulsing—and in an instant, his condition was gone. That night, for the first time in his life, he sat down and ate a full meal. No pain. No complications. A complete and total healing. Join us as we hear Christopher's unbelievable journey from sickness to supernatural healing, on this VERY SPECIAL episode of the Quick Start Podcast!

Joey and Bessie's new bed & breakfast has finally opened, but since they spent every cent on the construction and left nothing for promotion, they don't actually have any guests. (They can't even ask their old friend Gale to do a puff piece on the opening, since she's been crapping out at every network she's applied to for a new job in journalism.) Pacey takes it upon himself to track down Fred Fricke, the biggest tastemaker in B&Bs, to come review the place for the New York Times travel section -- which would be a good idea maybe a month in when Bessie and Joey have worked out some of the kinks, but maybe not right now when there's still a room under construction and there aren't any guests. Pacey then tries to fix the fix by asking all their loved ones to come fill up the place for Fricke's benefit, and since Mitch brings Gale, that sends Dawson into a tailspin. Sharing accommodations isn't something Jack and Andie have done lately, as she keeps reminding him -- on, he assumes, their father's orders. But is Joseph even the one who's anxious for Jack to move back home? Henry isn't part of the staycation crew, but he has just arranged a dinner for two at Jen's favorite Capeside restaurant, so he's very much on her mind.

Remember Ethan, the gay prep school kid Jack met on the train back from Boston? He's returned home again for Capefest, an ill-defined free music festival that seems to be mainly about camping on the beach. Though Jack is apparently not a fan of popular music, he is easily convinced to come hang out, making Jen come as backup. Also attending? Henry, a veggie burger-grilling, Bruce Springsteen-covering renaissance man who has absolutely no interest in Jen and her inconsistent attempts at platonic friendship. Nikki has embedded herself in the Capeside High film department, getting the extremely offscreen Mr. Jordan to break all the rules of equipment loans so she can use it to work on her latest project. When Dawson decides to take his righteous indignation to her house, it backfires into an invitation for dinner from the adorably proud Principal Green, and exposure to her bedroom and values causes Dawson to experience a crisis of...well, interior design. Andie has decided to volunteer as Assistant Director on the school production of Barefoot In The Park, partly as a distraction from her feelings about her breakup with Pacey, but her plans go to hell when she finds out the English teacher directing the play has recruited Pacey specially to be his male lead.

Pacey's got problems all over his life. His FWB arrangement with Jen still hasn't led to any actual sex because they've never quite recaptured the magic of their one good kiss on Witch Island. He's failing most of his classes, so he needs Joey's help to get him through midterms, and the cost for the latter is partnering her in a ballroom class so that she can try to win the dance school's college scholarship. AND his asking her advice about his hypothetical no-strings sex friend is a big mistake, since there are only so many possible candidates. Plus, after sneaking in to Dawson's room to attempt sex, Pacey left a condom on the floor, and Dawson's on the hunt to find out what's going on. Since he starred in Gale's human interest story, Jack has started getting emails, including from another gay kid who only lives two towns over. Andie hectors him until he sets up a date, but is he actually ready? Put on your swishiest skirt and listen to our episode on "Four To Tango"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

It's Thanksgiving, and the plan is for everyone to gather at Grams's house -- even Pacey, since his family eats later, presumably because everyone hopes his dad gets drunk enough to sleep through it? Gale is living in the Leery guest room while she, and somehow not Mitch, looks for an apartment; Dawson is suspicious of how pleasantly they're getting along. Joey is missing her poor dead mom today more than usual. Andie's plan is to make dinner for Jack and her dad, but then Joseph gets stuck in Chicago so they have to come to Grams's too so that Andie can be weird around Pacey. Only Jen is really having a great day and looking forward to fooling around with Pacey later, per their new FWB arrangement...so it's too bad for her when she opens her bedroom door and sees her mother Helen (Mel Harris!) standing there. What does Dawson do with his secret knowledge of Helen's past? How much does Joey bum everyone out with her orphan-osity? Do Jen and Pacey ever manage to bone???

Almost four months after becoming a shock box office hit, The Blair Witch Project still has a stranglehold on culture, if we want to be generous and use that term to describe Dawson's Creek. The core four are reading The Crucible in English class, and naturally Dawson decided that he's too special to do assignments as assigned; he's convinced Principal Green -- who's teaching their class to free Mitch up for football stuff, presumably -- to let him make a documentary about a local witch legend. ("Isn't The Crucible kind of...not really about the Salem witch trials?" We'll get into it.) He'd already arranged to have Pacey and Jen "help" so that they could also blow off their papers, and when a desperate Joey runs into the video store to rent The Crucible because she's run out of time to read the play AND the last copy is gone, Dawson belatedly remembers she exists and offers to let her in on the scheme too. On the island, the kids ignore warnings not to get lost in the woods or stay past dark. Joey and Dawson also ignore good taste and make the story of the one accused witch whose body was never found, and whose dalliance with her true love led to her conviction in the first place, into a stand-in for their own stupid relationship problems. Meanwhile, Jen finds a love spell in a gift shop book and decides to try it out on Pacey, for sport. Back home, Andie lets the tiny amount of power Principal Green granted her on the student disciplinary committee go straight to her head, and her citation-writing hand.

It was just one episode ago when Dawson thought he'd discovered a link between Eve and Jen, but that's not the titular secret -- it's about Gale and therefore much more boring. Jen wouldn't have time to deal with the bombshell of a possible half-sister anyway: as Capeside's latest Homecoming Queen, she has the responsibility of...planning a gala for fifty years' worth of past Queens? When Jen visits apparently the oldest Queen, Miss Constance Freckling (K Callan!) to try to weasel out of it, she has a bee-facilitated interlude with Henry, aka Miss Freckling's handyboy "Hank." Pacey is keeping busy enlisting members of the police auxiliary to help turn the Potter cottage into a B&B, but drops everything when Andie calls Joey crying that Rob committed sexual misconduct against her, but then won't agree to report him to the authorities. Joey's like, "Hmmmmmmmm." We're like, "Uuuuuuuugh." It's no secret OR lie that we've brought you a new episode -- listen now! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Dawson has arrived at the film noir section of his film class, and why not -- he's living in one, what with femme fatale Eve mysteriously popping up and disappearing all the time, making him feel like a mark! He's just snapped off The Lady From Shanghai when he notices shady doings across the way at Grams's place, and wouldn't you know it: the person creeping around with a flashlight is none other than Eve, who immediately tries to deflect questions about what she was doing by hitting on Dawson. When that doesn't work, she threatens blackmail with the stolen PSAT. Dawson is so fired up that he does some actual PI work! Is the information he uncovers worth the trouble he gets in with Doug? Henry is still so smitten with Jen that Jack tries causing a date to break out spontaneously without Henry's having to ask Jen (since he is physically unable to speak to her). And when Joey finds out that her latest rejection sent Rob after Andie, she takes extreme measures to protect her friend. Fire up the fan, but not too loud: we brought you an episode on "Indian Summer"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

We are NOT here for football, and yet it keeps happening to us! Offscreen Gale gives Dawson an opportunity to produce a human interest piece for a national news broadcast, completely on his own. He decides to do something about Jack, the gay football star, and gets signoff from everyone except Jack's coach, Mitch. Jen is also implicated in football culture when the other cheerleaders make a kiss from her a prize in a silent auction, and is so appalled that she resigns as head cheerleader (although events leading up to this do suggest that she was ready to do that regardless and the auction just provided a convenient pretext). Now sprung from his relationship with Andie, Pacey involves Joey in his latest shenanigans; getting caught cutting class for a trip to the post office lands them an unorthodox and moderately punishment from Principal Green that -- get this -- ALSO braids into the football storyline. Andie is trying to put her PSAT cheating in the rearview, but when Principal Green tells her he needs to see her about a disciplinary matter, it revs up her paranoia.

The entire junior class is in a tizzy about the imminent PSAT, the practice for the test that could possibly determine the entire course of their lives. But maybe they don't ALL have to stress about it so much: somehow, Eve comes into possession of a copy, which -- in her established role as a chaos agent -- she gives to Dawson. Then, he lets all his closest friends know he has it so that they can tell him what to do about it; unfortunately, that's when they all have to go outside for a fire drill, leaving their stuff, and when they come back in...the test is gone. Suspicions start flying around as to who the culprit could be, and the complete lack of evidence, apart from past behavior possibly informing actions in the present, doesn't stop Dawson making some pretty uncharitable AND unfounded accusations. Meanwhile, football is apparently still happening whether we like it or not. Jack suspects his teammates are being extra-hard on him for homophobic reasons; Henry tries to help him so that Jack might return the favor by getting him a proper introduction to his dream girl, Jen.

We're off this week but we bring you two Again With Again With This episodes full of SPIDERS?! and death traps. AWAWT 092: Let's Watch Thomas Calabro, Patrick Muldoon, AND Vanessa Williams In Ice Spiders!

AWAWT 144: Let's Watch Jack Wagner AND Gabrielle Carteris In Trapped: Buried Alive! 2002's labored, spark-less Trapped: Buried Alive features an avalanche (of laughable CGI), nonstop bickering, a bratty stepdaughter, gas leaks, Shatnerian line deliveries, and one of the few pregnant women in scripted entertainment NOT to go into labor during a natural disaster. Everyone's trying…but very little of it's working. Put down that crossbody full of cash and have a listen! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

We're off this week but we bring you two Again With Again With This episodes full of Jasons Priestly. AWAWT 123: Let's Watch Jason Priestley In Christmas At Tiffani's! In this special holiday episode of Dinner At Tiffani's, our titular hostess -- with some assistance from her real husband, Brady Smith -- throws a dinner party for two of her TV husbands, the guy who was her 90210 love interest for a few seconds in one season finale, and their wives. Cheese is on the menu in more ways than one. AWAWT 171: Let's Watch Jason Priestley And Liz Vassey In The Christmas Episode Of Tru Calling! Did you know that Jason Priestley was basically a series regular on Tru Calling, Fox's mid-00s sci-fi show as a guy who could see dead people's last moments, and go back in time, or...something? We didn't, and after watching the series finale -- which also features recurring guest star Liz "Marcie St. Claire" Vassey! -- we still don't totally get what was happening in this thing.

Dawson has a secret and REALLY wishes he didn't. Hoping to avoid telling Joey about her dad's return to drug dealing, he takes Gale's advice and goes straight to Mike, telling him what he knows in the hopes that Mike will...knock it off? Or something? Instead, The Icehouse gets firebombed while all the cocaine -- oh, and also all the kids we know -- are inside. The situation does bring Pacey's dad, Sheriff Witter, back onto the scene to be an even bigger jerk than he was the last time we saw him, which is saying something. The Leerys -- other than their poor boundaries with regard to adult/child friendship -- remain the best in parent class, Gale's decision to leave Capeside for the job in Philadelphia also causes some minor turmoil. Fortunately, we'll always have Grams to model chosen family goals. Warning: parental discretion IS advised for our episode on...well, you know. JOIN THE AWT CLUB

However Joey and Dawson might classify whatever they're currently doing relationship-wise, they've been doing it for a month, so Dawson is taking her out for dinner at Capeside's fanciest French restaurant, Entre Nous. Except oh no, when Dawson made his reservation two weeks ago, the maître d' didn't realize there were TWO Leery parties of two, and he's already seated the only one he thought he had that night, which is how Joey and Dawson end up celebrating their month-iversary with Mitch and Miss Kennedy. (No offense to the maître d' but it's probably crap like this that has you working a fine dining establishment in a dying Massachusetts fishing town.) Jen is now crashing at the Leery house, and Gale seems to appreciate having an inappropriately young gal pal to talk to about all her problems. But when she burns the pot roast she'd been making for their girls' night, they decide to dress up and hit the town and you will NEVER GUESS where they ALSO end up!!! Meanwhile, Andie hasn't seen any Abby apparitions since the day of her funeral a month ago, but a mysterious and intense young man has been hanging around, reminding her that no one can find out about what they have. Who is he? Are Andie and Pacey going to be okay? Is an actual adult going to notice that all the literal children in this episode NEED HELP and intervene?!

As the news of Abby's passing spreads through Capeside, everyone gets a chance to make it about them. Girls at school who were definitely not Abby's friends distribute yellow armbands in her memory. Jen displaces her guilt onto Andie, then starts drinking. Andie -- worried that Jen might be right when she says Abby would still be alive if Andie hadn't kicked her and Jen out of the wedding -- doesn't correct Mrs. Morgan about her supposed friendship with Abby, AND agrees to deliver a eulogy at her funeral. Jack realizes he may have been the last person to kiss Abby before her death.  Joey tries to keep a lid on her feelings so old grief about her mother's death three years earlier doesn't boil over. And Dawson takes the opportunity to rewatch all the footage he shot of Abby for Creek Daze -- which he might as well, if only to take his mind off the possibility that Gale is going to take a fancy network job in Philadelphia and leave him behind.

Dawson has a new teacher for film class, and (presumably) unlike Mr. Gold, she has an actual track record: Nicole Kennedy (Mädchen Amick!) is in town on sabbatical to write a screenplay and is just teaching as a lark? Also teaching as a lark: Mitch, who has apparently taken over Mr. Peterson's course load. Dawson's being as normal about it as he is able, but Mitch is not able to be normal about him, and bragged so much about his movie in the teachers' lounge that Miss Kennedy asks Dawson about it. He's excited...at first! Joey and Jack have fallen into the post-breakup friendship groove she and Dawson couldn't quite manage. At the fair, he urges her to talk to another artist -- a college freshman photographer named Colin -- and he ends up being so taken with her beauty that he gets her to pose for him. Andie seeks a reading from a psychic at the fair, then wishes she hadn't. And Jen tries to make a love connection for Grams and Whit, another vendor at the fair that Grams already knows -- but is she ready to consider reopening that chapter? Spirit is telling us you will enjoy our episode on "Psychic Friends"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

As Pacey wraps up his week's suspension, Capeside High is still abuzz with speculation about Jack's sexuality -- including from a very offscreen Mr. Milo, who's given up on getting Mrs. McPhee in to the school to discuss the situation (thanks to Andie running interference) and calls their dad to make his first-ever on-camera visit to town. Mr. McPhee endures Andie's nonstop chatter over dinner, then turns his attention to Jack to make sure he knows that if he were gay, he would take it as a personal insult. Elsewhere, Joey is, seemingly, under near-constant torment as to whether the rumors about Jack could be true, and getting moderately bad advice about it from, who else, Dawson. Ty also decides to weigh in, telling Jen he doesn't know why Joey would waste her time with a "fruit fly" (no) like Jack. The answer to what you should spend your time on today is: our episode on "...That Is The Question"! NOTES
