I mean she's smart, she's beautiful, she's funny, she's a big ol' scardy cat... if you creep up from behind her,she'll jump out of her skin; it's pretty amusing... Um, she's honest... she always calls them just like she sees them. You can always count on getting the truth from Joey, even if the truth hurts. She's stubborn, we fight a lot. She can be so frustrating sometimes, but she's a really, really good friend. And loyal to a fault. She believes in me, and I'm a dreamer, so it's so good to have somebody like that in my life. If she goes away, I don't know what I'm going to do. Want more great lines? Dying to see these quotes in context? Read the complete transcript of this episode! Joey: Do you really love me though, because I'm 15 years old and I go through everyday of my life thinking nobody loves me. Joey: Yeah, but just like in our own lives, they are so predictable. I mean, the producers put the characters in some contrived situation, hoping that the audience will think something is going to change. But you know what? It never does. It's back to the same way it was before your so called cliff-hanger. It's boring, Dawson. Joey: Give me one good reason why I should stay. Give me one straight-forward, non-analytical reason why I should stay... I thought so. Doug: One day you're going to be tired of being a joke and it's going to be too late. Bessie: Joey, he is still our father. Joey: Yeah, Our father who art in prison.
