Summary

The school year is over and everyone is TRYING to move on to their next adventures, but figures from their past are getting in the way. A delayed flight lets Jack reunite with Eric, who’s decided against spending the summer trying to come out to his parents and has returned to Boston to work on himself. Jen is eager to get to Costa Rica, but as soon as Dawson finds out about her parents’ invitation, he starts giving her the guilts about it. Joey and Pacey, back in Capeside, wonder if they should be so passive about Dawson and Audrey winging off to Los Angeles and away from them. Get ready for us to honk angrily at all the convenient coincidences of “Swan Song”!
