4. Instant Karma!

Complete story — includes the ending

Dawson is commissioned to go to the airport and pick up lead actress Natasha Kelly ( Bianca Kajlich ); she treats Dawson dismissively, still apparently upset by the fact that he dumped her via phone. She demands that Todd fire him, and Todd — despite genuine remorse — does. Pacey, who is studying for his Series 7 exam, is forced to turn down Audrey, who wants to go out and party with Jack and Jen; he is then invited by Rich to go out on the town with company bigwigs, leading to an uncomfortable confrontation when his friends run into him on the street. Audrey, drunk to the point of impaired consent, is seduced by a random student, only to be stopped when Jen, with the help of C.J., intervenes. Jack runs into Prof. Freeman at the party, and the two bond when Freeman admits that his wife is pregnant... with an implication that Freeman is interested in more than scholarly friendship. Joey, attempting to get through Kerouac 's On the Road, is dragged out by Eddie, who is making a massive Hell's Kitchen food delivery... to the set of Wicked Dead. Natasha, watching Dawson's heartbreak whilst interacting with Joey, gets Dawson his job back, realizing the damage Joey has done to Dawson is long-term and enormous. Impulsively, Joey kisses Eddie; he thanks her, but points out that she needs to resolve her feelings for Dawson first.
