Nominated for Capeside's Homecoming Queen, Jen wins and is put in charge of planning the Annual Homecoming Queen Gala, where she shocks the prim-and-proper committee president, Constance Freckling, and the entire town with the entertainment, while Jen also asks the painfully sky Henry to be her date. After Joey and Pacey save Andie from the libidos Rob, she wants to get back together with Pacey. But Joey becomes suspicious that Andie may have orchestrated the event to make Pacey her savior. Meanwhile, Dawson is distressed with his mother, Gail, unexpectedly returns from Philadelphia, and soon learns that she was fired from her job, while he is torn about telling Jen the scandalous secret he has about the departed Eve.
