Joey is onstage for her interview. Mrs. Windjammer asks her what words of advice she would bestow upon today's youth. As Dawson and Hannah watch from the wings, Joey says, "I'd like to tell today's youth that, uh, no matter where life takes you -- big cities, small towns -- you'll inevitably come across small minds [at this she glances toward Hannah]. People who think that they're better than you are. People who think that material things, or being pretty or popular automatically makes you a worthwhile human being. I'd like to tell today's youth that none of these things matter, unless you have strength of character, integrity, a sense of pride. And if you're lucky enough to have any of these things, don't ever sell 'em. Don't ever sell out. So when you meet a person for the first time, don't ever judge them by their station in life, that person just might end up being your best friend." She concludes with a look at Dawson, who beams, and applauds vigorously. "Don't ever sell out"? Joey, if only you could look into the future and see the debased shell of a girl you become after hooking up with Dawson. Lord.
