We continue to follow Audrey's struggles with substance -- and the inexplicable way she, Joey and Eddie all hop in a car from Boston to California (ah, to be young again). There's also tons of early 00's product placement, and an obsession with a giant TV from Best Buy.

For this episode we watched Dawson's Creek's:

S6, E13: Rock Bottom

S6, E14: Clean and Sober

Watch Dawson's Creek with us on Hulu or Amazon Prime.
