• [Joey steps in the middle between Dawson and Pacey about to exchanges punches at each other] 

  Joey Potter : That's enough, both of you! I can't stand to see any of you like this. Just back off!

  Dawson : [to Pacey]  Fine! Just go. Get the hell out of here, Pacey, and take the spector of failure and bad luck with you before you rub more of it off on me or Joey. Get out my sight! I don't even want to look at you!

  Pacey Witter : [somber tone]  I didn't mean to lose all your money, Dawson. I had no idea something like that would happen. I'm sorry.

  Dawson : So am I, Pacey. So am I.

• Pacey Witter : Dawson, there's something I need to tell you. It... oh boy. This is bad. We were so getting back to becoming friends again. It's a shame to ruin our friendship this way.

  Dawson : What are you talking about? What would ruin our friendship?

  Pacey Witter : Money, Dawson. That's what would ruin it.

  Dawson : What happened?

  Pacey Witter : [sighs]  It's gone, Dawson. It's all gone. Every cent. Your money is gone. My money is gone. Some guy on Long Island money is gone.

  Dawson : What do you mean "gone"? Pacey, that was all the money I had!

  Pacey Witter : I know. Those bio-tech stocks that I put it all in... I-I don't know how this happened. I really thought Stepavich would take off. Everyone was saying that it was the sure thing. Some FDA announcement came back the day before yesterday at finding some side effects that it's wonder drug had on test subjects. The whole company is in bankrupcy. The stock is worthless. From 80-per-share to zero in a...

  Joey Potter : [shocked and angry]  Not again. Pacey, not again with you!

  Dawson : [also shocked and angry]  Oh, yeah right... right! Typical, so typical! Why else would you... Pacey! Why did you bluntly ignore my request to sell the stock on the day before this FDA annoucement was to take place?

  Pacey Witter : I don't know. I was trying to do the right thing. I thought it would double or triple in value when...

  Dawson : [interupting]  Oh Jesus... God, Pacey! It's the same damn story with you! You ALWAYS try to do the right thing! But no matter how hard you try to help others or yourself, you don't have the intelligence or the common sense to see all the pieces of the puzzle. You never did. And you probally never will! God, of all the the countless times you let me down, screwed me over, you really did it this time!

  Pacey Witter : Now wait a minute. Need I remind you that you came to me with your dream. I didn't approach you. You approached me. You were the one that took the chance. You wanted me to help you with your dream of being a great film maker. You gave me your money to help you double it and to finance your movie. Yet again, this boils down to the fact that "I" screwed your over? If that's not a typical reaction on your part, then what is?
