Again With This: Dawson's, Melrose, 90210

We’re following the teens of Dawson’s Creek through each day of a particularly eventful week. Joey, back at school after the holidays, is leaving dozens of messages for Eddie that are going unreturned, and she’s not the only one looking for him: Harley’s back, too. Jen has finally been worn down on volunteering at The Stand, and she must really be committed if she’s letting CJ train her at this stage in their relationship; meanwhile, David and Jack are taking the Big Step of getting tested for STIs together. Dawson and Todd return to L.A., where the latter is not quite ready to receive fearless feedback from studio executive Larry Newman (Paul Gleason!). And when Pacey runs into Emma there, the aquarium becomes the site for the two to get to know each other much better than ever before. Today is the day for our episode on “Day Out Of Days”!

It’s the holidays, but not the peace on earth/goodwill to men kind. Joey weirds Eddie out by inviting him back to Capeside, which he declines, opening the door for Joey to make the same invitation to Audrey after Audrey drunkenly misses her flight back to Los Angeles. Pacey can’t wait to drive his new Beemer up to the Witter house and rub his family’s collective nose in all his financial success. Dawson decides to continue ignoring his hurt over Natasha’s possible infidelity by inviting her to Capeside…and Todd also comes, possibly just so there’s someone to hit on Gale? Too bad for Jack spending his holiday offscreen with the McPhees we never see anymore: he missed a lot of Merry Mayhem, but you shouldn’t — listen to our episode all about it now!

Finals are almost over, but the universe is punishing Joey by scheduling Hetson’s after nearly everyone else is done, and she can’t find a quiet place to study. Eddie’s offer to borrow his apartment while he’s at work is both generous and maybe a little strategic, since they do end up fooling around in a naked way that’s so tiring Joey falls back to sleep and misses most of the exam. As we all know, academic desperation typically doesn’t bring out her best, but…just kidding, she’s terrible this time too. Todd’s movie has its own “Drew Barrymore in Scream“-type cameo artist: a movie star named Max Winter who is working with Spielberg next. Dawson gets way too jealous about it, possibly with just cause. Pacey’s boiler room is having a holiday party, so he invites Emma to come and even insists on buying her a new dress to wear for the occasion! There’s just one little thing about this particular party that he probably should have made sure to tell her before she showed up for it. Let’s all come together for our episode on “Everything Put Together Falls Apart”!

Before Todd got into the flop movie business, he was a very well regarded music video director, which is how he knows No Doubt; that they are keeping tabs on him enough to give him like a dozen comps is kind of a surprise, but sure, why the hell not. Dawson gives them to Jen to distribute. Joey and Eddie get a pair, Eddie discovering while Joey hard-sells him that she expects their first date to be a hang with all her friends, one of whom was kicking glass at him not very long ago. Jack and David get a pair, and David’s good old friend CJ also gets one after Jen literally runs into him in the record store and can’t sense the palpable tension between him and Audrey. And Pacey gets one because Jen thinks if he and Audrey just got back into proximity with each other, they’d work out all their issues. Some people forget their tickets; others misread them; shocking secrets are revealed…and we’re telling you all about it in our Hella Good new episode!

As we know, Audrey is not doing so great. But since she’s being louder and crazier than ever before instead of talking to anyone about it, no one can quite tell exactly what’s going on until she starts pounding shots ahead of her latest Hell’s Belles gig and getting nasty to Eddie while Joey stands by uselessly. Actually, one person can tell what’s going on: CJ, and this is the episode where we find out why. Freeman announces to the class that his new book has earned him a guest lecturer gig in Chicago, but before he goes, he has a bunch of things he’d like to not quite say to Jack. When Pacey and the rest of the aspiring stockbrokers pass their Series 7 exams, Rinaldi takes them all on a whirlwind trip to New Orleans to be disgusting in a whole other time zone. Grab your passport for our episode on “Ego Tripping At The Gates Of Hell”!
