In the final part of the episode, when Dawson approaches Joey at the pier, Katie Holmes' microphone is outlined. As she leaning forward there is a huge lump on her back under her jacket.
Tammy Arnlold, who plays an office assistant, also played a secretary in Admissions.
As Jen and Grams walk out of the school you can see a camera on the right side of the screen.
(To Andie) Pacey: I think what we're going to miss about you the most, McPhee, is your overwhelming optimism. Your ardent believe that everything in the world is wonderful until proven crap.
(To Jen) Jack: I never stopped listening, Jen. I just didn't particularly like what I was hearing.
Pacey: I reacted like Pacey. Joey: You know who that guy you reacted like is going to be in 10 years, Pace? The person who knows me best. Dawson knows my past. My future lies with you. Think about it, you know you didn't even like me three years ago.
Joey: Pace, I asked Dawson to write a peer recommendation for me. He said no, so it's really nothing. Pacey: Well that's not nothing. The nothing is you tell me about it. It's the something that you keep secret.
(About leaving Capeside) Andie: So my father wants what's best for my health and my brother is being selfish out of love.
Mr. Brooks: As you take on years Mr. Leery, you'll come to realize that you don't always lose people from your life by choice. Sometimes it just happens when you make the wrong ones.
(To Jack) Jen: When you're close to somebody and they do something unexplained or out of character, you don't just abandon them. You of all people should understand. It's killing me what you're doing. You may not ever do what I did, but what you're doing right now, I can tell you I would never do to anybody. Especially you.
(After finding out about the ectasy issue) Grams: I thought we had a relationship based on honesty and truth. I will not yell. I will not punish. Scolding is for children. And Jennifer, you are no longer a child. I wish to God you were. Maybe then there'd still be time to right whatever it is that is wrong with you. I have never, in all my life, been so deeply disappointed in anything or anyone.
Gretchen: You know you might be dating one, Joey. But you still can't out-Witter a Witter. Especially an older one.
Pacey: Maybe not all friendships have to be saved. You know, maybe we're just meant to spend a certain part of our lives with certain people and then move on. Isn't that what this whole year is suppose to be about? Moving on? Andie: Pacey, we can move on without moving away from each other.
Pacey: Andie, if our high school didn't have a history of forgiving stupidity, how do you think I'd be able to walk down the halls, huh?
Joey: I was just kinda hoping to take a vacation from large choices that carry even larger consequences.
Drue: That which does not kill me only makes me more diabolical.
Pacey: You don't get it. It isn't the act. It's not that you asked Dawson, it's the question, Joey. "Person who knows you best". When do I get to be that person?
Andie: Pacey, Joey, Dawson. You guys are so lucky. Do you have any idea how rare it is to have friends that you've known your entire life? So please don't underestimate that. Because in the end you always go back to the people that were there in the beginning. And in the beginning, there was the three of you.
