Dawson's Creek, Season 3

Pacey:
So, are you going to thank me?

Joey:
For what?

Pacey:
Well, for all manner of things. Like defending your honor, bucking the system-

Joey:
Tilting at windmills while in the throws of a misguided hero complex?

Pacey:
Well yeah, that too. [They pause and smile at each other])

Joey:
Pacey, if I was going to thank you for anything it would be for being yourself and you know, not caring what anybody else thinks and for knowing in your heart what's right and wrong and...and for being here this year...when I needed you the most.

Pacey:
You're welcome. [Pauses and picks up a can of paint] So you want to help?

Joey:
One condition.

Pacey:
Sure, name it.

Joey:
Be honest. The only reason you've been hanging out with me...is simply because Dawson told you to?

Pacey:
Yep, that's the only reason.

Joey:
Hmm...you need to get a life.
