JOEY: What part?
PACEY: The other Joey. The carefree girl who knows how to drink and play strip poker and....go away on a sailboat for a summer. The girl who can get up in front of a crowd of complete strangers and sing in a beauty pageant.
JOEY: The other Joey?
PACEY: Yes, the other Joey. The girl who knows better than to let things that are completely out of her control bother her.

JOEY: You really worried about that?
PACEY: Of course, I like to think I could get back to being the person I used to be, because in my opinion, he was actually a pretty good guy.
JOEY: You still are, Pacey. Look, you’ve always been this mad-cap genius just waiting for potential to kick in, it just so happened to kick into overdrive. I’m very proud of you.

PACEY: I don’t know!
JOEY: It’s not like you’d ever be attracted to the shrewd business type, right?
PACEY: Well what does it matter, because you’re not jealous, right? You know what, I’d like to issue an apology. Take a letter would you? You’re gonna need a pen and paper. ‘Dear Miss Shaw. It was wonderful to see you this afternoon.’ No no, go back. ‘It was lovely to see you again. However, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for my secretary’s behaviour.

JOEY: Really? And why is that?
PACEY: Ok, now you're just milkin' this for all it's worth, aren't you? Fine. [Sighs] I wouldn't have been able to concentrate because every time you're 5 feet away from me or 25 feet away from me, for that matter... there's really only one thing that I want to do.

41. PACEY: You’re off the hook.
JOEY: What?
PACEY: You’re off the hook. I’ve never really put much faith in all that ‘if you love someone set them free’ crap, as evidenced by everything I’ve done in my life up to this very moment, but.. I am determined to be happy, Joey. Happy in this life. And I love you. I mean I always, I have always loved you. But our timing has just never been right, and the way I figure it, time is no man’s friend. So I have to get right with that, and be happy, now. Because this is it, I mean this is all that we get. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from losing Jen, that’s what I’ve learned.
JOEY: Pace, I-
PACEY: Hold on, I’m not done. Because I also want for you to be happy. It’s really important for me that you be happy. So I want you to be with someone, whether it be Dawson, or New York guy, or some man that you haven’t even met yet. But I want you to be with someone who can be part of the life that you want for yourself. I want you to be with someone who makes you feel like I feel when I’m with you. So.. I guess the point to this long run-on sentence that has been the last ten years of our lives.. is just that the simple act of being in love with you is enough for me. So you’re off the hook.

6X24 - Must Come To an End

42.JOEY: You know, for the record, I don’t want to be let off the hook. Because everything in my life that I’ve done has led me here, right now, and.. the last thing I want, need, or deserve, is to be let off somebody’s hook.
PACEY: Please don’t miss my point here, because I just don’t-
JOEY: And don’t miss mine. Pacey, I love you. You know that. And it’s very real. It’s so real that it’s kept me moving, mostly running from it, never ready for it. And I love Dawson. He’s my soulmate. He’s tied to my childhood, and it’s a love that is pure and eternally innocent. I can’t be let off the hook because I might just get the notion that it’s ok to keep running.

I'm voting for number 1

JJH85

I'm going with #34 because it was said out of desperation and it's heartbreaking to know where it leads.

Butterfly85

I think I'll go 34 too, especially when it made Joey look like a heartless stupid b*tch JMO.

AsgardianJane

Here's a bit of a debate. I wonder what people think about this unanswered question.

Why did Pacey steal the credits video in 1998?

The 'Joey trance' suggests its because of Joey. So do we think he took it after he realised his crush in Double Date or do we think that was KW's way of saying that he's always had a conscious crush? 'You grabbed my ass!'. I think we all agree there was a burgeoning sexual element there, intentional or not, as they reach that stage of their development. The way they frame that pre credits scene about the 'man-woman stuff' and the first line about Pacey directly after is him copping a feel. These things keep happening far too much to be coincidental.

Speaking of that kind of stuff. The Season 2 PJo amnesia. Remember when Joey asks Dawson if he thought she was sexual? After Jack came out. And Joey's all upset because she thinks no one sees her that way, even Dawson was clueless. Is she forgetting that Pacey said he was attracted to her? Or does Pacey not count? Its very interesting that Dawson suggests that Joey wanted Jack because he was not sexually threatening. One could almost suggest the somewhat asexual Dawson Leery was similarly safe. Whereas the regular, heterosexual teen boy who told her he found her hot and acted on it was kept at arms length?

hshapir2

I guess the writers thought they would use it as a joke to compare Jen asking him if he was going to steal or borrow Joey

maybe. KW wrote it that Pacey was atleast attracted to Joey in season 1. agree. KW wrote the PJ dialogue with sexual content since their first scene together. They talked about each other in a sexual way

it's possible. I remember in Double Date she says the other half is polluted enough implying about Pacey
