Season three of Dawson's Creek opens shortly after the divorce of Dawson Leery's parents, with 16-year-old aspiring filmmaker Dawson (James Van Der Beek) having spent the summer with his mom in Philadelphia. Back in Capeside, MA, Joey (Katie Holmes) is down on herself big-time for having broken up with Dawson just when he needed her most -- though Dawson himself has been consoling himself with the company of mystery woman Eve Whitman (Brittany Daniel), whose quirky antisocial behavior alters many lives when she herself arrives in Capeside. Meanwhile, Dawson's dad, Mitch (John Wesley Shipp), has become the local high-school football coach, with Jack McPhee (Kerr Smith) as the team's top player, a fact that causes a bit consternation for Jack, who still hasn't fully come out as a homosexual. Jack's sister Andie (Meredith Monroe) returns to town, recovered from her mental breakdown. With Dawson apparently out of the picture, his pal Pacey (Joshua Jackson) begins dating Joey -- a situation that causes a rift betw

Meanwhile, Dawson's pal Pacey (Joshua Jackson) has an uncomfortable reunion with Tamara Jacobs (Leann Hunley), the English teacher to whom he had given up his virginity in the previous season. With Joey apparently interested only in newcomer Jack, Dawson goes back to Jen on the rebound, which turns out to be a really bad move. As it turns out, however, Jack is gay, and thus hardl
