So finally Joey walks outside and runs into Harmony and Sammy. She shakes her head. Harmony heaves a sigh and starts to bawl. Sammy makes a sad baby face. Joey kneels next to her. "Did my daddy do something to you?" Sammy asks. "No! He did something nice for me," Joey lies, and then tells Sammy that Mr. Mugger saved her from getting smashed by a car. "Did you hear that, Mama?" Sammy marble-mouths. "Daddy's a hero!" Oh, holy crap. Daddy's a hero? Shoot me right now. I mean it. Drag me out back and put me out of my misery. Yeah, I know the episode is almost over, but it's not like I'll ever be able to erase it from my mind. Harmony hugs her kid. "Thank you," she mouths to Joey. Saint Joey. Perfect, flawless, selfless, beautiful, pleasant, polite, smart Joey. And as Harmony and Sammy hug, Joey takes her wad of cash and shoves it into Harmony's purse. Oh my God. Doesn't she need -- well, maybe Dawson can advance her another fat check. An ovary begins to wail "Close To You" as Joey sadly shuffles out of the hospital. Why do birds suddenly appear every time Joey Potter is near? Apparently, everyone wants to be close to her. Why? Got me.
