Then we get Dawson excitedly running down the hall calling to Joey "Archie or Reggie?" Potter, who, when he catches up with her, looks alarmed. He tells her they won, "The Boston Film Festival: we won the Jurors' Prize for the Best Short Film in the Junior division." Um, first of all, yeah right. Second of all, whoever wrote this episode should have put a whole lot more conditions on that award, like maybe "Best Short Film in the Junior division among Directors with Bad Dye Jobs originating on Cape Cod and featuring a Porcine Performer in a Leading Role." Anyway, whatever, I will TRY to believe that horrible film won anything outside the Razzies, as will Joey who gets excited too, as Dawson reads from the letter: "'The clever send-up of the horror genre shows a profound understanding of the traditional Hollywood machinations [except that Dawson pronounces it "massinations"] and turns them upside-down in an entirely refreshing and entertaining way,'" and I really doubt an official letter like that would use adjectives so indiscriminately and excessively, but if I'm suspending my disbelief that far, I guess it can be suspended that little bit more.
