About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges faced by the characters as the semester ends, including exams and relationship dynamics.

Season 5 is almost over, and so is the semester at Worthington AND Boston Bay Colleges. While Joey stays put trying to study for multiple exams, everyone else rolls through to include her in their business. Dawson giggles so much at This Is Spinal Tap that Joey kicks him out to a screening of sex, lies, and videotape , where he runs into Amy fleeing Storytelling , and the two decide to spend the night together instead. Audrey babbles about Pacey keeping secrets from her — which he is, on Jack’s advice, regarding Alex’s kiss at the end of the previous episode. And a frantic Jack, missing crucial course notes and completely desperate, begs her to tell him anything she knows about multivariable calculus. Pacey seems to think he can handle whatever energy Alex keeps directing at him, but he also seems determined to ignore every opportunity to keep their relationship professional.
