DC S05.E05: Use Your Disillusion

Having apparently exhausted his usefulness at home, Gale sends him to Worthington to hang out with Joey for a couple of days. Given Dawson's lack of interest in her when she was home for the funeral, she is nervous as hell about how the visit's going to go. Once he gets there, he doesn't seem especially psyched to watch a movie on her tiny TV even before they get to a scene that too closely mirrors recent events in his life. When she mentions a party at Professor Wilder's house, he's eager to go...until he actually gets there and immediately feels trapped. What is happening to Dawson's emotions and why? (...We all know, but it's 2001; they hadn't heard of trauma yet back then.) Pacey's in the middle of telling Jen all about his amazing new mentor Danny and crush Karen when Jen happens to spot Charlie through the window of a restaurant: he told Jen he had a shift at the radio station that night, but here he is dining with ANOTHER GIRL?! While Jen comes to terms with Charlie's possible trampiness, Pacey starts to get inklings that Danny isn't all he's cracked up to be. Tobey comes to town to surprise Jack on what unfortunately happens to be Hell Week for the frat pledges. Can Jack balance his obligations to his new friends with the attention he needs and wants to pay his boyfriend? Use your ears to enjoy our episode on "Use Your Disillusion"!
