Suddenly the kitchen window explodes inward as a stick of dynomite crashes through it and lands on the table next to Dawson. Dawson quickly regains his compossure and reaches for it. While Joey is screaming at him to get out of the house. He carefully pulls the blasting cap out of the stick and throws it back out the window, there is a small pop as it goes off. With the stick still in his hand, he runs out side just in time to see mark speed away down the creek in a boat.
"How did you know to do that Dawson?" Joey asks.
"Simple i am a director, we use stuff like this all the time. But do me a favor and remind me to call a guy named Stan later and thank him for teaching me that. Could you call Sheriff Witter and ask him to come over, please." Dawson calmly asks.
Several minutes later a police car pulls up. Doug Witter is behind the wheel. He gets out and walks toward Dawson, who is staring off down the creek. "You called, i am guessing you have a reason." Doug says.
Dawson just chuckles and throws the stick of dynomite to him.
"Is this what i think it is?" Doug asks.
"Yes it is. Dynomite." Dawson answers.
"Ok, how did you get it and why do you need me?"
"Simple Mark, Joey's ex, decided we needed to be blown up." Dawson simple states.
"How do you know it was him? Did you see him?" Doug asks.
"Sure did taking off down the creek, it's name was Mark 1." Dawson tells him.
"Yes that is his boats name, we have him this time. That is as long as Joey doesn't back out." Doug informs him.
"You don't need Joey this time Doug. I have a dozen witnesses from last night who heard him threaten me. I am the one who saw the boat leaveing not Joey. I will be the one pressing charges in this matter not Joey." Dawson tells him with an intensity that almost makes Doug take a step back.
"You really aren't the same person who use to run these streets with my brother anymore are you Dawson? You have become a man, and a man who backs down from no one." Doug tells him "We all knew you would be a force to recoken with, and your successe hasn't suprised anyone either."
"Well Doug thanks, but i am the same person just a little pissed. This guy threw that into my parents house. What would have happened if i hadn't been close and everyone would have been here?" Dawson says with the same intensity before continuing. "You have your chance here Doug, catch him, put him behind bars. Becuase if you don't, I will."
"Dawson leave this to us we will get him. I promise you that. Don't do anything stupid and take things into your own hands. I would hate it if i had to lock you up, instead of him." Doug says.
"Oh Doug you underestimate me again. If and only IF i have to move on my own. There won't be any blood on my hands when you find what is left of him." Dawson informs him with a quirky little grin.
"Don't worry Doug, He will stay out of your way. I Promise you that." Joey says from the door way.
"Ok Joey i am going to leave him in your hands. Dawson i will get him i promise, please stay out of it and let me do my job ok."
Dawson is looking Joey in the eyes and see's the pleading thier. It is like asking him with her eyes to stay out of it and to stay safe. "Ok, Ok, Doug he is all your's Just get him before he does something even more desprate."
