Below, in the parking lot, Jack asks TGED if he doesn't mind taking Audrey home. TGED does, he says. "But my inner drama queen accepts her refusal not to come out of the bathroom until Jen and Pacey leave," he says good-naturedly. Jack really appreciates TGED's attitude, and explains that he just can't ditch Jen, especially considering how shitty things have been for her lately. TGED agrees, and they walk in silence for a moment. Jack observes that things aren't really going very well for the two of them. "Well, the hanging out has gone well, but the dating? It seems safe to say that when two gay guys go on a date and each of them goes home with a hot blonde girl? Something's definitely not working," TGED chuckles. Jack snorts. Wait, that's just rueful amusement at their bad luck, right? Not a decision not to go out again, right? Because I love Tiny Gay Elfin David and if this is it as far as he goes, I'm going to be wicked pissed and it's really not going to be pretty. And I'm talking screaming, yelling, crying, wailing, tearing of hair, gnashing of teeth, taking of hostages -- the whole nine yards.
Cut to the police department, where Todd has bailed Natasha and Dawson out of the pokey. The lovebirds skip down the stairs, Natasha laughing the whole way. Dawson can't believe she's not taking this seriously. Natasha laughs that they didn't even get arrested. It was just a warning! And this evening has been fun! And he knows it! Dawson snickers and admits that it was pretty fun. "I'm starting to think that you might be insane," he says, "but..." Natasha throws her arms around him and wonders if he's never dated an insane person before. "I have. But not in a good way," Dawson admits, and kisses her, just as Todd trudges into the shot. His hair is all standing out everywhere. "Okay, shagwits," he announces. "To the car. Let's go! Chop bloody chop! Or I'll have to throw cold water on you both." God bless him. Natasha snickers that Todd is mad. Dawson chortles that he's real mad. Todd purses his lips and turns around. "For the record, never let it be said that Todd Carr is man who's not in love with being in love," he says pointedly. "I think both my movies and my life reflect my deep and abiding commitment to getting two good-looking young people together and having a bit of fun now and again. However, as Leery bloody well knows..." he trails off and affixes Dawson with a dirty look. "You're also a man who's in love with sleep," Dawson finishes for him. Todd shoots them an irritable eyeball. "To the car!" Todd hisses. "Now!" And storms off. Henceforth, I'd like to be addressed as Mrs. Jessica Carr.
