McPhee House
Capeside
The gang are sitting around the McPhee lounge room watching a movie. Dawson and Joey haven't mentioned what they overheard earlier. The phone rings.
'You get that Andie,' Jack suggested.
'It's your turn. I don't want to miss the movie.' Andie said.
'Gee thanks McPhee.' Pacey joked.
'And I'm comfortable here,' she said as Pacey tightened his grip on her in his lap.
'I'll stop the movie, you get the phone Jack,' Jen ordered.
Jack glared at Jen. 'Fine! I thought you were supposed to be on my side.'
'I am, get the phone Jack.' Jen said.
Jack went to get the phone as Jen finally found the remote control between the cushions on the couch. She pushed stop on the remote and Harm appeared on the screen. 'It's an honor and a pleasure to serve' the onscreen Harm said.
'It's Harm,' Jen pointed out.
'Looks like Captain obvious and Captain oblivious are in the room,' Joey joked looking at Jen then smiling at Dawson.
'Huh, he never told me he was an actor,' Dawson replied.
'Down film boy,' Joey joked.
Just then Jack returned to the room.
'Who was it?' Andie asked.
'If you wanted to know you should have answered the phone,' Jack replied.
'Then I would have missed seeing Harm,' Andie said.
'What?' Jack asked puzzled.
'He was just on a commercial.' Jen answered. 'Who was it on the phone?' she asked.
'Oh just a wrong number,' Jack replied.
'Can we start the movie again?' Dawson asked.
Jen pushed play on the remote in reply to his questions.

Potter B and B
Capeside
Bessie and Dawson are sitting at the table in the kitchen talking while Bodie is preparing breakfast.
'Now Dawson, Bodie and I and your parents are trusting you and Joey to be on your best behaviour while we're gone,' Bessie said to Dawson just as Joey entered the room, and overheard the last part of the conversation.
'Bessie!' Joey said shocked.
'What? Are you and Dawson ready for your own little Alexander?' Bessie asked Joey as both her and Dawson turned red.
'Bessie!' Joey said again.
'Good morning Joey,' Bodie called from the kitchen.
'Morning Bodie, is that pancakes I smell cooking?' Joey replied.
'Certainly is. I thought in honor of our guests and all.' Bodie trailed off.
Joey turned to Dawson. 'You should move in here permanently.'
'Joey,' joked Dawson grinning back at her.
'Wrong guest!' Bodie called out just as Bessie muttered, 'I don't think so,' under her breath.
At that moment Mac walked in and sat at the table, she was followed moments later by Harm. 'Good morning everyone.'
Mic followed Harm into the room. 'Is it?' he muttered under his breath.
Bessie gave Mic a weird look as he bent to give Mac a kiss. Mac glared at him and turned her head away preventing him from kissing her, she then turned and glared at Harm.
'What did I do?' he asked puzzled.
'What was constellation prize?' Mac asked glaring at him even more.
'What?' he asked even more puzzled.
'Mac, it wasn't like that,' Mic tried to explain.
'Joey, did you hear something?' Mac asked her completely ignoring Mic.
Joey looked at Dawson pleading with her eyes for him to change the subject.
'So Harm, I didn't know you were an actor?' Dawson said picking up on the signals Joey was sending him.
'Yeah' Joey added 'We saw your ad last night, not bad'
'But what was with serving the navy is a pleasure?' Dawson asked.
'My ex-girlfriend made me put it in!' Harm replied 'I wanted to say privilege!'
'That sounds a lot better than pleasure.' Dawson agreed with Harm.
'Ex-girlfriend?' Mac said ' When did you and the video princess breakup.'
'Renee and I broke up yesterday!' Harm said watching Mac's face light up and a big smile spread across her face.
'Looks like eternity isn't as long as I thought it was' Mac grinned 'Why was the video princes in Boston?' Mac inquired.
'She is producing a commercial there' Harm replied
'What she's a producer?" Dawson asked 'Does she know Spielberg?'
'She produces commercials, not movies Dawson!' Joey pointed out.
'She still might know him Jo!' Dawson replied hastily. Joey gave him a skeptical look.
'Um as far as I know she doesn't Dawson' Harm said answering the question.
'Were there tears?' Mac asked smiling.
'Only over the fact that her lead actor hadn't arrived!' Harm replied.
'Oh, who was it?' Dawson asked.
'I think he went by the name Rover' Harm smirked
'What?'
'He was a dog! It was a toilet paper commercial. Mac burst out laughing as Harm finished his sentence.
'So Mac, what are we doing today?' Mic asked changing the subject.
'We are not doing anything! Harm and I are working.' She said looking at Harm for confirmation.
'If the two of you are working then maybe I should leave!'
'Sounds like the best idea you've had since you got here!'
'I think we need to talk.'
'I don't think there's anything left to say!' Mac replied looking out the window
'Mac, you, me, my room. Now!'
'Mic, I outrank you. Don't try to order me around.' She said glaring at him.
'I guess that's one thing I've got over you, she can't order me around!' Harm said watching Mac smirk.
'Mic, you, me, my room. Now! That's an order, not an option!'
'Yeah, but Harm, you forget one thing. She's wearing my ring!' Mic said following Mac out of the room.
'Your room or Harm's?' Dawson asked looking at Joey.
'What?' Harm said confused.
'Well if yesterday's performance was anything to go by, your place' replied Joey.
'What?' Harm asked again.
'You can order me around, but I can't order you around? I thought we were equals in this relationship!' they heard Mic yell.
'I'm glad, I'm not him' Harm said quietly
'If you think this bad, you should have been here yesterday.' Joey informed him.
'Equals. I thought I was your trophy,' Mac yelled at Mic.
'That's not what I meant. I tried to explain….'
'If we're so equal why don't you trust me?' she said angrily.
'I do trust you.'
'Then why the hell are you here?' she demanded, her voice rising. 'That's right, I forgot. You're here because you don't trust Harm either.'
'That's right! Harm comes up again!' Mic yelled in frustration.
'Well Harm and I are here to work on our relationship,' she snapped back, trailing off realising what she said.
Joey, Dawson, Bessie and Bodie all look at Harm.
'What, nothing's happened. Yet.'
'Here I am assuming that we were the one's in a relationship and that you and Harm had a friendship,' Mic yelled at her.
'You know what. You assumed wrong!' she screamed back, pulling the ring off her finger. Throwing the ring at him, she yelled. 'Take your ring and get the hell out of my life.'
'I'll call you when I get home,' he said in shock.
'Don't bother. I don't think this relationship can survive my friendship with Harm. And you know what, I'm not willing to give that up.'
'I guess I'll be going.'
'Don't let the door hit you on the way out,' she snapped as he walked out of the room. He went to his room and grabbed his stuff. Walking into the kitchen, he paid Bessie and Bodie. Opening the back door, he stopped and turned around. 'She's finally made her choice. Take good care of her, Harm.'
The five of them sat and looked at each other as Mic left. Standing, Harm said. 'I'll go check on her.'
Jen, Jack, Pacey and Andie walk through the door.
'What's with Mic?' asked Jen. 'He looked pretty upset. Bessie, Bodie, why are you still here?'
'It's been an eventful 15 minutes. We're about to leave. I'll leave Joey and Dawson to fill you in,' said Bessie as she picked Alexander up.
Bodie grabbed the car keys and headed for the door. 'Guys, there's pancakes in the oven. We'll see you when we get back. Keep out of trouble.'
'Us, we never get into trouble,' said Pacey as they walked out the door.
'Where's Harm and Mac?' Andie asked.
'This doesn't have anything to do with Mic leaving does it?' Jack asked.
'You could say that,' Joey replied.
'Mac just gave Mic back his ring and told him it was over,' Dawson filled in the rest of the group.
'One couple down, one to go,' Jen smirked at Joey.
Joey turned bright red, looked at Dawson and then turned back to Jen. 'My room now,' she said.
