Episode 174 – The Dance II
Dawson’s Creek dances usually end in tears. This one is no exception. After being convinced by a super-excited Andie, the gang decides to attend their homecoming dance for the first time as The Gang. Dawson, Joey, Pacey, Andie, Jen, and Jack all in the same place at the same time. Unfortunately Jack recently kissed Joey, and when Dawson finds out he decides it’s time to throw down. Meanwhile Pacey fails to perform on the dance floor for the lovely young Andie McPhee, but somehow finds the motivation when asked by the elusive Christie Livingston. The only good to come of this episode is that we finally get to see the only OTP that matters meet. Jack and Jen get to hang, and it’s clear almost immediately that they need each other. It’s our second run through a great ep, we hope you like it. As promised in the episode we are also happy to present this week’s MTSG fanfic in its entirety: (Y volvió a pasar) And it happened again: A sailing fic in 5 stanzas. (1) Meeting Will at the Capeside bus station in the middle of the night, again. Beaten. Shirt bloodied. And then alone in the darkened driveway, Pacey hugging him while Will fiercely didn’t cry, and then inside, cleaning him up and leading him to his bedroom, lending him a clean t-shirt, and lying awake beside him until Will fell asleep, making sure no-one else in the house heard anything. Never asking what had happened. Because he knew Will’s dad. And running into Doug on patrol that time, who took one look at...Episode 173 – Tamara’s Return
Oh Tamara, you were problematic your first time through The Creek, and you’re even worse on your return trip. It’s not cool to kiss teenage boys, no matter how your loins may ache for them. That being said, this is the episode where Pacey makes the right decision and finally starts pursuing a girl his own age. That girl being the wonderfully-amazing Andie McPhee (twitter haters come at us). This is also the episode where Joey realizes that she loves Dawson… too much? Too much to date him more than a few weeks? Whatever Jo Pot. We all know you’ll be snogging Jack in a few episodes. Lastly this is also the episode where Jen and Abby literally cruise the docks for older men. So what I’m saying, given the recent political stories out of Alabama, and given the Tamara/Pacey, Jen/Random Dockworker arcs, this episode is incredibly timely. I so wish it weren’t.

Technical difficulties abound! It took us two tries to get you an episode this week, but we pride ourself on one thing and one thing only: consistency. This week we rolled up our second run through of that late season 6 episode called Catch-22. Or as we come to call it, the great Table Clearing episode. Put the friendships to the torch and the relationships to the sword, because we have a finale coming, and we cant have our stars carrying any baggage into that big ending. Joey & Eddie decide to go to Europe, then they decide not to because Eddie is basically a huge child. Pacey is bad at stockbrokering, and loses all his money plus all of Dawson’s money. Jack gets kicked to the curb by Greg Rikaart with little mercy. The only person who makes it out of this episode unscathed is Jen… but we know how it ends for her. It’s a decent ep for season 6. Not great, but it gets the job done. At the end of it we read an email from Mike that includes some particularly saucy fan fiction. Don’t miss it! Theme by Sound of Days.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are on a hot streak. This will be our second watch through of True Love, but our first organic rolling of the famed episode. This one needs no introduction, but since that is the exact purpose of this space, I am going to do it anyway. Jen & Henry are on the rocks. Jack and Ethan are on the rocks. Joey and Pacey are on the rocks. By the end of the episode these will all be resolved for better or for worse, with a little help from Grams. Come for the Dawson Cryface Meme, stay for True Love sailing off into the sun…. rise. We also read a particularly apropos email from MTSG, and provide our usual banter that you’ve all learned to tolerate. WHAT COULD BE BETTER? Thanks for listening. Theme by Sound of Days.

So first off, yes, we fudged the rules a little, but nobody wants to watch the same episode two weeks in a row, so we made the executive decision, re-rolled the dice, and were gifted with our first dealer’s choice in a very long time. The decision was tough, but as you can see… we made the right one. Promicide is one hell of an episode. In a season where most of the kids are fairly well adjusted, and the angst is somewhat lacking, this episode is the boiling point. Relationships fracture, friendships are reforged in the furnace of shared loss, alcohol is guzzled, and Drue friggin Valentine dons a tux to steal all of our hearts. Of course it isn’t all bad, our boy Jack McPhee overcomes some personal hurdles, and comes out the clear winner of 4th season. It’s one of those podcasts with long runs of silence as we forget that we are supposed to be entertaining, and instead just get entertained, but we hope you like it anyway. Theme by Sound of Days.
