Dawson is surprised to wake up and find herself naked and tangled in the sheets. She emerges to the kitchen to find none other than a chipper Peter Mills whipping up some breakfast. She feels awkward about the night before, immediately chalking it up to that bottle of wine they polished off. Mills quickly catches on to her charade and tells her that no one at work will find out about them hooking up, assuring her that "this is our thing, no one else's." Dawson is immediately put at ease and pulls Mills into an intense kiss.
