- I've been wanting to tell you I'm sorry, Dawson. I'm really sorry for the way everything went down this spring. For my part in it. For the pain it must have caused you. And I'm really sorry that I ruined our friendship, cause I miss it. Badly. And, however far off it may be, I do look forward to the day when you and I might be friends again. So, until then

PRODUCTION NOTES
- The episode was originally titled "The Tempest" and "A Stormy Day" before settling on "Two Gentlemen of Capeside." Promotional ads referred to the episode as "The Storm."[3]
- In a Q&A, executive producer Paul Stupin replied to the question, "What were the technical challenges you encountered while filming this episode?":
- "This was by far our most challenging episode in the history of "Dawson's Creek." In order to effectively shoot a storm with realistic waves and rocking boats, we had to shoot in a tank. However, as we soon found out, there were no tanks in Wilmington, North Carolina ready to create our own version of "The Perfect Storm." After much scouting, the Locations Crew did find a huge concrete pool next to an abandoned cement factory that we could use. The Cast and Crew shot for two nights with two full-sized boats, while huge shoots poured water down into the pool. Guys on jet skis helped create waves in the water, which added to the feeling of a real storm. Ironically during filming, a real storm actually shut production down due to lightning. The pool worked well for the close up shots but for the long shots we needed something different. In Post Production, we used Computer Graphics to really sell the fact that Dawson, Jen, Pacey, and Joey were out on the water. This way we could meld the shot footage with the computer graphics (which weren't finished until today) and have an outcome that is different than anything this show has ever attempted. Although it was technically challenging, it was also a really exciting departure from anything we've done before."[4]
