Cut to Joey’s dorm room. Chris and Audrey are seated on one of the beds, in front of the television.
AUDREY: Ok, who’s the girl?
CHRIS: Devon? Hand picked by the great Mr. Leery himself. She was a great kisser.
Audrey scoffed.
CHRIS: You know he met her when she was a model. Joey was in an art class, and…
Audrey giggles.
AUDREY: You mean THAT was her? The one Dawson walked in on?
Chris grins.
CHRIS: Oh, so you’ve heard the story?
AUDREY: Heck yeah! According to Joey, he almost fell over.
Chris laughs.
CHRIS: Oh, I can tell you amazing stories of Dawson Leery’s juvenile ineptitude.
Joey walks in, staring at the two of them sitting on her bed.
JOEY: What is he doing here?
Audrey and Chris look up at her.
AUDREY: I invited him.
Joey sighs.
JOEY: Great! Now I’m going to have to burn the sheets!
Quickly, she opens the closet and pulls out a duffel bag.
CHRIS: Hey, you don’t have to book a motel or anything. I’ll be gone after the movie’s over.
JOEY: Don’t flatter yourself, Chris. I’m spending the weekend in Capeside is all. What are you watching, anyway?
She sneaks a look at the TV.
JOEY: Oh. That. I still say she was too tall to play me. You know he made a remake?
Chris’ eyes go wide.
CHRIS: A remake? What about my groundbreaking performance?
She scoffs.
JOEY: You were never cut out for the Richie Cunningham routine, Chris. Hannibal Lecter, on the other hand…
He rolls his eyes.
JOEY: That’s actually one of the reasons I’m headed back there. Harley wants to hang out with your successor some more.
CHRIS: Oh? I take it your protégé meets the height requirement?
Joey smirks, then turns to Audrey.
JOEY: You’ll be ok with him for a few days?
AUDREY: Oh, totally.
Chris suddenly gets up from the bed and heads to the door.
CHRIS: Well, I’ll leave you two lovely ladies to bond for a while. See you at the library later, Audrey.
AUDREY: Bye.
He shuts the door behind him.
Joey and Audrey focus back on the television, as Chris gives another performance.
AUDREY: He is a pretty good actor, you know? Even at 16.
JOEY: Well, he had a lot of practice convincing unassuming young ladies that he was a good guy. Imitating someone with Dawson’s integrity was second nature to him. But, you know what? It’s an act. That’s all it is.
Audrey gives her a look.
AUDREY: Come on! You don’t know that.
Joey laughs.
JOEY: Trust me, Audrey. Chris Wolfe has probably never loved anyone in his entire life.
