Pacey loses it at the prom..Joey is crushed

[Ta1on10]

Pacey murdered her in this scene. Im glad it took place, he is by far to good for her. Team Pacey!

[breeship]

Honestly Joey never deserved Pacey he was way too good for her and this season was my least favorite because of Joey and Pacey's relationship, I too noticed that throughout this season Joey became controlling over Pacey and treated him like a charity project, that's not a healthy relationship

[msbooboo0501]

Damn. Pacey tore that scene up. Forgot that this show had its moments of genius.

[MSowada1]

God I wish I could blow up like this sometimes. But when I get that heated and I really want to give it to the person making me feel that way....I can't even think of a word to say. Great Job of acting from Joshua...something tells me he was getting out a little emotion he didn't get out when those two broke up in real life.

[JulietK003]

I love this scene so much, this is amazing. I always hated P/J together here's the proof of Pacey feeling miserable because of Joey. I hate her, cause she wasn't there for him in a way like Andie was, for instance. With Andie, Pacey became the man he always wanted to be, with Joey... Well you get the picture. He just couldn't take it anymore, and I totally understand why. I wish they've never brought these two back together. Joey NEVER deserved Pacey's love. The writers screwed this thing up.

[slyn11]

@JulietK003 I have struggled with Joey Potter issues myself. But I personally don't think that Andie was the one for Pacey. Pacey almost had to be someone else to fit into Andie's view of model boyfriend. I am not sure how long they would have lasted even without her mental break and cheating. The main reason I wanted Joey with Pacey so much was because he loved her so much and wanted her. I may not have liked her that much, but Pacey thought the world of her. So I wanted "true love" for him

[dirty06maggot]

@JulietK003 i dont think pacey had found the right girl yet. instead the writers went with joey

[TL23455]

This is when Pacey realizes that Joey is a controlling bitch.

It is funny with Andie he became an excellent student, with Joey he was flunking out.

I am ready for the hate from the P/J'ers, but Pacey and Andie was "True Love"

[autumnmist927]

@TL23455 Andie and Pacey true love you say? Andie cheated on pacey......pacey was upset at himself, this is why he blew up, he never thought he was good enough, this has nothing to do with joey....joey just happens to be the person he unloads on, he's felt worthless for a long time and that has alot to do with his family.

[TL23455]

@autumnmist927 I think you need to rewatch that season. Joey Treated him like dirt with her holier than thou attitude. Besides she ran to Dawson behind his back every chance she got. Andie cheating? If you think about it; it is a bit more complex than that. Andie cheating had nothing to do with sex nor love, but more toward fear and lonliness. Pacey soared with Andie and crashed and burned with Joey. Yeah she deserved it.

[amracer5]

I don't really ever watch this show... but not exactly the place to show this kind of emotion....

[ghlover3]

i get that joey wasnt fair to pacey a lot of the time when it came to dawson. and i get that pacey was hurt & sometimes those feelings of anger just build up but he did not have the right to humiliate her like that, especially at the PROM. i feel so horrible for joey here.

[VideoKrytic]

Nice hair-do Joey.  I sleep with my hair like that, and you wore it to the prom! ???

[quicksand241]

what are people talking about where is andie when you need her and pacey/andie season 2? I think dawson was first infatuation rather then first love. I think it is pacey/joey even though some think they are bad because of their hate. I don't think they even did hate or dislike.

[MayBrainLee1]

It must be said, those idiots over at Fringe should watch this video and realize that Josh can bring the emotions instead of having him always DOWNPLAY his emotions on that crappy show fringe.

[slyn11]

@MayBrainLee1 Number one problem with season 3 Fringe...the two dimensions...and in one dimension no Josh. So we only get him every other week. I swear that is why ratings declined. That dull woman that plays Olivia cannot carry the show. They need to focus more on Josh.

[MayBrainLee1]

@slyn11 LOL. I agree. 

[dirty06maggot]

joey and pacey are a horrible couple but so are dawson and joey.

[halopairemilofanatic]

@dirty06maggot I don't like joey. So whatever.

[Ree4Quee]

Did anyone notice how there were no teachers on that boat? I'm also surprised nobody defended Joey. Not even Dawson said, "Pacey enough".

[daeuri]

@Ree4Quee I am trying to imagine if anyone, adult or teen, would have had the presence of mind and courage to try to stop the meltdown as it was happening. I can't help but wonder if Dawson was secretly relieved that it was going down because it would make him the most important person in Joey's life again. At the same time, I think it would have been asking a lot of him to rescue the friends whose relationship turned his world upside down just a year ago.

[Ree4Quee]

You know he means business when he says "I can't take it anymore, JOEY" instead of his pet name "Jo". LOL

[defmouse14]

insecurities get the best of you........

[brookefanatic]

This was the best and worst scene in dawson's creek history.... Best because Joshua Jackson's Acting was superb and amazing and worst because PJ broke up :(

[kitkatt24]

Was he drunk or something?

[slyn11]

@kitkatt24 LOL not drunk....just finally exploded from what had been building the entire season.

[ClaudiaAnzoni]

Pacey & Joey = True Love <3

[axelle32]

Impressive and amazing acting there. Pacey is so believable so good in this scene it's amazing. And btw scenes like these are what made dawson creek so unique, some amazing writing and drama could be created simply. No need for "you cheated on me", "i'm pregnant turns out you're not the father" bla bla bla to create good drama. Just genuine emotions coming out of good actors. I miss that.

[dougfancy101290]

I love Joey and Pacey together. When they were together, they knew they wanted to be together (not like Dawson and Joey, who, when together, always struggled admitting their feelings).

I use to think Pacey and Andy were the perfect couple until Andy comes back from the mental hospital and says she slept with another guy. She became a whole new person and that totally ruined my liking her.

[Oofti]

such an intense scene.

just a reminder of what it was i loved about this show.

[claireice]

Heartbreaking :( I love these two so much. And while Pacey humiliated Joey and she didn't deserve that and he was the one to break them up-they both had a hand in ruining it towards the end. At least they got it right in the end

[puertoricanmama92]

Does anyone what the song is called that is playing when Pacey sees Joey and Dawson dancing?

[axelle32]

Man that is an awesome scene!

[artgurl101]

I don't blame him for feeling worthless after messing up so many times. Guys have sensitive egos and lash out rather than dealing with their issues.

[Dream1ng]

I actually agree with you. Joey can be a bitch sometimes and i totally feel for Pacey in this scene. Dawson was a complete idiot and joey kept going back to him. I would be pissed as well.

[cgherrhenr]

the guy was such a jerk. loser

[djinie270787]

I feel her pain, when he talks to her like that. I hate the way he behaves but I love the way Joshua and Katie bring the emotions across. Thanks for uploading.

[jeroenvr]

i still don't understand why he did that.

is it cause of dawson, or just because he has to let her go?

or is there another reason?

[kelchjr]

Pacey is venting because hes starting to think

hes not good enough for her with his grades and

graduation, the way his family treated him at

his B-day suprise party, him not going to college

and shes leaving for college, and now his one

chance to prove to himself he is good enough

(in his head) he fails with the dress and corsage then the limo. So all his Pain was

unloaded on Joey seeing her dancing with Dawson(unfairly) instead of dealing with his

issues!(How he sees himself) Harsh? LoveBites

[killurboredom]

im not a fan of dawson the charactor the only time i liked him was wen he was goin out with jen in the last season,im so glad that pacey and joey ended up 2gether and i liked the fact that they kept them apart for a while because i think most ppl knew that they would find eachother agian i love the fac that there feelings hadnt change in the end even though they hadnt been 2gether for such a long time

best couple eva!!

[lpycb42]

Pacey had always that sort of distrust. He always had that in the back of his head, that he couldn't compete with Dawson. That she would never love him as much as she did Dawson.

[slyn11]

Yes he did. Dawson, as he put it, was his own personal kryptonite. He finally got over it though...

[AoibheannStateira]

Can you blame him though? Every time Joey had to choose between Pacey and Dawson she chose Dawson. EVERY TIME. He always need validation because she was shifty. He gave her everything but i never felt like she loved him as he deserved to be loved. He was constantly proving himself to her, but he never made her do the same for him.(which is on him) And then with all the other stuff, the lie, his grades, the college thing he just cracked because he was left with nothing. It's sad.

[brookefanatic]

@AoibheannStateira She only had to choose between Dawson and Pacey twice and both times she chose Pacey lol, Season 3 finale she chose Pacey.... Series finale she chose Pacey lol

[ljcollins78]

@brookefanatic I don't think dawson was trying to be with her in the finale, and season 3, she only got with pacey cuz she thought dawson didn't want her, and she only chose pacey to get back at him for rejecting her after she tried to give her virginity, lol

[brookefanatic]

@ljcollins78 You're kidding right? She chose Pacey because Dawson rejected her? No, She chose Pacey because she loved him.... She chose Pacey because she realized HE WAS THE ONE she wanted. Noone was trying to be with Joey in the series finale, but Joey finally let her heart do the talking and chose to be with Pacey for once and for all...

[ljcollins78]

@brookefanatic so in the finale pacey wasn' t feeling joey the moment he saw her and he didn't kiss her on the dance floor? well its a show and the obvious choice would've been dawson/joey, pacey/andie. in season 3 if dawson would've took joey back and accepted her offer when she tried to have sex with him, would she have fallen for pacey? the finale just shows that you don't always end up with your 1st love which people can relate to.

[brookefanatic]

@ljcollins78 Yeah he may have been feeling her, but he didn't do anything to try and get with her, same with Dawson... For once noone was hounding her or pressuring her to chose the right person, she got to do that.... In Season 2 I would have agreed with you that it should have been Pacey/Andie. But I was never a fan of Dawson and Joey... I agree that you don't always end up with Your first love. She ended up with the right person....

[ljcollins78]

@brookefanatic the only time there was pressure was the end of season 3, she season 4,5,6 she got with dawson no pressure. season 4 she was jealous of dawson/p's sister, season 5 she was jealous of dawson/jen and didn't care bout p being with her roommate. season 6 she pushed p away for eddie you have your opinion, i have mine, but the writers did right by not doing what people expected

[TL23455]

@lpycb42

And Pacey was right. Any relationship he would have had with Joey would be clouded by Dawson lurking in hhe background.

He never would have spoken to Andie like he did to Joey. Pacey had to much respect for Andie.

[LeopoldStotchRules]

I quit watching this show after S2 and when I heard that it ended with Pacey/Joey I just thought wow, they really threw the whole concept of the show out the window didn't they? It's like a fanfiction version of how the show would have ended, not the real one supposedly written by professional writers lol. But oh well, it's not like this show had oodles of integrity and originality to begin with. They probably had to rely on the fangirls to get through so many years so they pandered to them.

[slyn11]

You should have watched after season 2...it was clear that Pacey was definitely the better match for her. And I actually thought he was a better match in season 1.

[xnycheartx22]

lol Pacey is always the better match.

[BoysLikeHeroHeroine]

@slyn11 i totally agree with you. i was so happy in the end of season 3 when she finally told him she loved him :D hehe i <3 Pacey!!

[scut0005]

On the contrary the show is original because it does not convey the cliche concept that the girl gets to be with her first love in the end and that first love is almost never a mature enough relationship to be longterm.

[dreamyreemee]

@LeopoldStotchRules Dude, Season 3 was probably the best season of Dawson's Creek, simply because of the Pacey/Joey dynamic. If you watched, you'd realize she made the absolute right choice in the end. Pacey > Dawson, all the way.

[kiwi278]

Tambien creo que Pacey ha actuado asi por culpa de Dawson en cierto modo. Porque Dawson le recuerda el niño perfecto: bueno en los estudios, razonable, amable con los demás y las perfectas intenciones que tenía con Joey. Todo eso le hace inconcientemente compararse con el le recuerda lo poco a la altura que es con Joey... claro no es cierto pero el no puede impedirse pensarlo siempre ha pensado que Joey seria más feliz con Dawson dos seres de la misma categoria y k el es el K sobra. Bss a todos

[leesie1987]

This is so hard to watch! =(

[3molly3]

This is by far Pacey's best scene !!! very sad though :0(

[hot4pacey]

Feel who's pain? Pacey?  OMG, what about Joey...that was soooo demeaning and embarrassing for her, especially the part where he starts talking about their intimacy...I would have never forgiven him!

[slyn11]

This was very hard for both of them. Yes I agree he really did hurt Joey in that moment. But it all was so bottled up within him, he just exploded.

[hot4pacey]

still..I would have never forgiven him...and, to me, it just wasn't very realistic for the producers to make it look like Joey forgave what he did to her within days...talk about "only in TV"...lol!

[slyn11]

I guess it depends on how much you love the person. Joey loved Pacey deeply, and I think she understood in part why he did what he did. I think she was willing to try - she wanted to be with him.

[hot4pacey]

We are talking about real life here...teenagers are not known to have that much forgiveness in them when it comes to BF and GF. And let's face it this was no run of the mill mistake, this was out and out humiliating and degrading! Don't take me wrong though, I still love Pacey but I just think that after all he did to protect her from many things, he goes and hurts her himself.

[hot4pacey]

and Dawson? Well, Dawson is a WIMP through and through! And me? Well, I'm just pathetic period! LMFAO!!!

[slyn11]

Agreed...but they both hurt each other. There were no innocent victims in this case.

[hot4pacey]

Yeah, but Pacey did it intentionally...Joey, however, was just clueless.

[slyn11]

Not sure I believe that. I think Joey knew exactly what she was doing when she lied to Dawson about what happened between her and Pacey at the ski lodge.

[hot4pacey]

Ok, I agree. Yes slyn11, you're absolutely right about that one...Joey knew what she was doing when she lied to Dawson and that did hurt Pacey lots...however, I think that what really bothers me the most about what Pacey did was that he did bring their intimacy up in front of everybody...and that SUCKED!!

[pinkrhinos]

Poor pacey, why didnt dawson do anything? lol

[mandielane]

i am watching this and they should dawson and how upset he looks for joey. honestly i am surprised he didnt try and get in the middle.

i actually felt really bad for both joey and pacey. although what he did was messed up, you could see how much pain he was in.

[thefirefighter]

if i was dawson id say screw joeyand stay with retchen

[Lucy723]

OMG! What happens after that?? i dont remember this scene... What happens between Pacey and Joey??? Is there a scene on YouTube that continues after..

[slyn11]

Do you want to know what happens after that fight in that same episode? They have another conversation before they get off the boat. I can upload it later.

[Lucy723]

Funny enough, ive just found it! haha, but thanks so much 4 offering! =)by the way great videos! Love the sniffin scene from Blood Ties! i really hope they make a second season! lol :P Love Henry!

[aqiran]

this scene just breaks my heart. :( i can't watch it without cringing! :( but at least we got our true love happy ending in the finale!!

[kristyms87]

such an intense scene, everytime i watch it i can still feel his pain.

[1Severine8]

Gréat scene
