Glee s06e02 Episode Script

6ARC02 - Homecoming

In a world where everything changes, some things always stay the same.
They say there's only three things you can count on in life: death, taxes and Dalton Academy.
When Kurt and I broke up, I was devastated.
I thought I was gonna spend the rest of my life with him, and then suddenly he was gone.
My therapist told me I should concentrate on the thing I love most: music.
And then I couldn't even do that.
But then I started coaching the Warblers and I was totally reinvigorated.
Oh, yeah! I know I stepped out of the box when I started dating Dave, but honestly I thought.
I needed to shake things up even more.
I mean, everyone's always saying change is a good thing, right? So I stopped gelling my hair.
Terrorist! I even stopped wearing bow ties.
Hey.
It's me.
It's Blaine.
Look, bro, okay, I don't care what your name is.
I'm not into that stuff.
It was that moment.
I realized that I didn't need to change it up.
I had to get back to where I once belonged, and that's Dalton Academy, where no matter what happens, you can always count on the fact that nothing's ever gonna change.
Excuse me.
Can I help you? You're Mr.
Anderson, right? Um, my name's Jane.
I am new to Dalton.
Uh what do you mean? You're a girl.
My dad went to Dalton.
And two of my uncles.
That's nice.
But then here I was, stuck at one of the lowest-performing public schools in Ohio, with no arts, no music So my parents brought a Title IX lawsuit against Dalton Academy and won.
That's shocking.
I mean, that's-that's amazing.
Thanks, that's nice to hear.
Anyway, I talked to the Dean of Performing Arts, and he said I should talk to you.
I want to be a Warbler.
Attention, McKinley idiots.
It's homecoming week, which means that a bunch of old farts will be creeping around the hallways like Game of Throne White Walkers Did you hear? The glee club is back! horrifying me with their beer bellies and their liver spots.
And that's just the class of 2012.
The sign-up sheet is right over here.
FYI, the much-beloved McKinley High homecoming dance is canceled, due to uh, let's say Sharia Law.
Lima Loser.
I mean, honestly, I forgot how cold those slushees are.
They chill you to the bone! I'm so sorry that happened, Rachel.
All right, guys, dinner is served.
You know what, though? It didn't really bother me.
It's like I felt good being an underdog again, like I was getting back to my McKinley roots.
All that from getting slusheed in the face? Well, I guess Becky did you a solid.
Well, I don't know.
Uh, wait, so you two are co-directing, then? - Yes.
- Not really.
Well, I guess we haven't come around to that conversation yet.
We're just focusing on recruiting right now, so Oh, uh Oh.
Oh, guess that's Blaine.
Oh, hey, buddy.
Come on in.
Hey, everybody.
Oh, my God, you will not believe the day that I just had.
Sorry I'm late.
- What did I miss? - Uh, not much, but since I have you all here, we might as well get started.
Mm-hmm.
We have some fierce show choir competition ahead of us and, uh, I think we should lay down some ground rules.
Yes.
Uh, like no stealing each other's set lists and no spying.
- And no poaching.
- Mm-hmm.
And always be supportive and clap for each other, no matter what.
I actually really, really need everyone's advice.
I have a huge dilemma.
A girl wants to join the Warblers.
What's the dilemma? You cannot be on the wrong side of history here.
I mean, you of all people should know that.
Well, I know, I just think that tradition is important, too, - you know? - Yeah, well, some traditions are meant to be broken.
You have to let her try out.
I mean, what's the worst that could happen? A house divided against itself cannot stand.
This house is built on a foundation of lies.
The Warblers is a house of lies! Order! Look, look.
No decision has been made yet.
I'm just presenting the issue for the Warbler Council to discuss.
Should female students be allowed to join? You know, okay.
All right, what's next, huh? Cat and dog Warblers? I mean, the very question is risible.
How about a student who's a skunk? Should it be allowed to become a Warbler? We can't have a girl Warbler.
Imagine the sexual tension.
We would never get anything done.
But, uh, aren't most of you guys gay? How dare you?! I have a girlfriend.
We all have girlfriends.
- Really? - Yes! Order.
Order.
Warblers, as coach, I am a non-voting member of this body, and once a vote is cast, I will respect the council's decision.
But let's be on the right side of history here.
Dr.
King he said that the arc of the moral universe bends toward justice, and isn't justice all about equal rights and equal opportunity and inclusion? I mean What about squirrels? I mean, should squirrels be allowed to join the Warblers? Th-The very premise of your argument is laughable.
So is yours! - Order! - Order.
Thank you, gentlemen, for that high-minded debate.
As Head Warbler, I'd like to propose a compromise.
Why take the unprecedented step of amending the Warbler constitution when we may not even need to? We may be allowed to refuse entry based on gender.
And we may not.
That's an open question.
But what is not in question is our right to refuse entry based on talent.
What I'm saying is, shouldn't we first find out if she can even sing? Hmm? All those in favor? Aye.
Well, I never agreed to be your assistant.
I'm just saying, co-chair seems a little more fair.
Yeah? Well, you never would have thought to do your work-study program here at McKinley if I wasn't here in the first place.
Okay.
Well, let just hold off on the whole labels issue until we actually have a glee club to lead.
Fine.
Where did you put.
"We Both Reached for the Gun" from Chicago? You organized them chronologically? Yes.
Wait a minute.
What does Xanadu have to do with Ace of Base? I'm filing them based on emotion, as we always should have filed them.
All right, this pile is Divas Strike Back and that pile is Cherish Yourself and that pile right there is Makeovers, 'cause we always tend to love a good makeover.
Great.
Well, we just wasted the past two hours, and now we have to start over all over again.
Okay, there is no point in organizing sheet music if we don't have any members.
Rachel, you've got to get more proactive if you expect this to work.
All right, you can't just post a sign-up sheet and-and expect people to sign up, like Mr.
Shue did.
McKinley has changed.
Sue has got these kids thinking the arts don't even exist.
We have got to show them that Glee is possible.
I'll be in the auditorium.
Can you hear me now, can you hear me now? I'm singing out I promise I am not looking at anyone or anything, I just am looking Don't worry.
Sorry, guys.
And Oh Can you hear me now, can you hear me now? I'm singing out Oh, my God, Sam, you hear it, too? Yeah, is it like a high-pitched ringing but only in your left ear? Because yes, I do, all the time.
I never wanted Mr.
Shue to know because he's like God to me, but now that you know, I feel like I can tell you - all this stuff that I've been holding - Shh! I hear it now.
I swear I heard it.
I know it's true.
Yeah.
No, I believe you, Rachel.
I mean doctors won't, but I believe you.
Found the God mic.
Hmm.
Okay I know things got a little crazy earlier, and we both said some things about your life that weren't very nice, so Mostly me.
Wait, why are you smiling? 'Cause you were right.
A-About me hiding in here and not being proactive.
But when you left yesterday, I had an epiphany and I heard a voice.
You-you found a student? Not exactly, but I heard him.
At least I think it's a him.
Well, let's not label or judge.
The point is, is that you were right.
About everything.
They're out there.
They're here, right now, in McKinley, hiding in plain sight.
They just need something huge to draw them out, to show them what they could be.
Uh-huh.
So I got on the phone.
With who? With everyone! Surprise! Yay! Let's go say hi.
What's up? Hi, guys! Pull up, pull up.
Artie! Hi I missed you! - Hey, buddy.
- Hey.
Hi! Missed your musk.
Hi.
Oh, my God.
Hey.
Now the whole gang is back to reboot the glee club.
Damn it, you guys, you said you'd wait for me - to park the rental car! - Oh Tina! Tina! Come on! Come over here, let's go.
Tina, Tina, Tina, - Tina, Tina, Tina - Come on, Tina! Tina, Tina, Tina, Tina Yay, group hug! Are you still a virgin? Sam Hugs, everybody! It's so great to have you all together in this room again.
It means so much to us that you would come at the drop of a hat.
Artie, are you drawing me? - Nope, just your boobs.
- Hmm.
I'm practicing for my storyboarding class.
Okay, we need to focus.
Yeah, guys, we really got to focus here, okay? We-We're in crisis mode, all right? Glee Club has done so much for all of us.
You know? It brought us together, it-it gave us hope, it put us out in the world.
And it brought some of us home again.
She's talking about me.
Here's the situation.
We need you guys back Not all the time, we realize that you have lives in other places.
We've got to get Glee Club back on its feet, you know? Especially since now some of us are the competition.
He's talking about Shue and Blaine.
We need you back.
Not all the time, but if you're not here, then the tradition of the club we love so much will be gone.
So we're going to find kids that can bring something to it the same way that we did, and we will mentor them based on our strengths.
But right now we really got to get out there and take on the school.
You know, really rattle Sue's cage.
We are going to give McKinley a little taste of what they've been missing.
Da da da da da Da da da da-da-da-da Da da da da da Da da da da-da-da-da-da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da-da-da Da da da da da da Talking away I don't know what I'm to say, I'll Say it anyway Today isn't my day to find you Shying away I'll be coming for your love, okay? Take on me Take on me Take me on Take on me I'll be gone In a day or two Da da da da da Da da da da-da-da-da Da da da da da Da da da-da-da-da-da Da da da da da, da da da da-da-da-da Da da da da da Da da da-da-da-da-da Da da da da da Da da da da-da-da-da Da da da da da, da da da-da-da Oh, things that you say Is it life or just to play my worries away?

He wears them so he doesn't have to hear your lame-ass fat jokes.
'Cause, believe me, I've heard them all.
And this is my senior year.
It's supposed to be the best year of my life, but instead I'm a no-name transfer from Chicago, and not one of these McKinley douche bags has bothered to talk to me.
Whatever.
Who needs them? I've got my boys: Tupac, Hendrix, Jagger, Sinatra.
Music might be my only friend, but it's the only friend that I need.
Still wouldn't kill me to meet some people here.
Maybe make some friends? Some real friends.
I'm sorry, what? Are you thinking of trying out for the glee club? - I-I just saw the - Fantastic.
I'm Rachel Berry, and I'm rebooting McKinley's award-winning New Directions! With my best friend Kurt Hummel.
You may have heard of us.
We're taking a break from our showbiz careers right now just to give back to the community.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't even ask your name.
- Uh, Roderick.
- Okay, Roderick, so auditions are next week, and we're asking everyone to prepare an up-tempo song and a ballad.
Do you have any favorites? - I - Fantastic.
Okay, so I would pick something not too obscure Like "Corner of the Sky" from Pippin.
Isn't that, like, the best song ever? And then I would pick something not too popular.
Try not to stay within, like, two minutes.
And if I were you, I would do, like, 16 to 32 bars.
- Here's some sheet music for - Uh, listen, I I'm sorry.
I-I-I'm really busy after school with everything, so - Okay, are you sure? - Thank you.
It was nice meeting you.
Nice going, Berry.
You scared him off.
Jane, wait up.
Wait.
The Warbler Council has decided to let you come in and sing for them.
They want to see how talented you are before they decide to overturn a 100-year-old males-only policy.
Let me get this straight.
I have to go in there and perform for the Warblers just to make sure I'm good enough to warrant them taking a closer look at their already sexist and discriminatory admission policies? Yeah.
Hey, Jane, Jane, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Just-just listen to me.
Look, the Warblers are a very old organization.
I mean, they've been around since the War of 1812.
When Francis Scott Key sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" to an ailing President William Henry Harrison on his death bed, the Warblers sung behind him.
The point that I'm trying to make is that sometimes change is scary, even when it doesn't seem all that significant, and I'm telling you, it would mean so much to me And-and it could mean so much to the Warblers If you'd just if you could swallow your pride, come in and show us what you got.
And before you do, there is someone I want you to meet.
Jane, meet Rachel Berry, the greatest performer I have ever known.
Ms.
Berry, it's so nice to actually meet you.
You're a legend.
Yeah, well, that's not the general opinion these days, but thank you It's an honor to help.
I think you are in the best possible hands.
My work is done here, and I think I should leave you two ladies alone.
All right.
Um can I say something? Why are you helping me? Oh, well, look.
We might be mortal show-choir enemies, but I'm a woman before all of that, and I figure you're fighting this fight for all of us girls, so let's get started.
Okay.
Center stage.
All right.
It's a packed house.
Show me your presence.
Okay, keep your back straight.
You have to command the audience with your body language.
Keep your head up.
And make eye contact.
Even if there's a hundred people out there, you have to make a personal connection.
You have to make each person feel like they have a one-on-one connection with you.
And, most important, your song.
Well, my family has a tradition of singing "Up, Up and Away," which is bad because Let me see your phone.
Oh, it well Janelle Monáe's "Tightrope" has the most plays.
Oh, my God, that she's incredible.
Well, I think you found your audition song.
Oh.
Okay.
From the top.
Hey.
I'm open.
I guess that's why I was the kicker.
Which was a transformational moment for the school, by the way.
Yeah, marked the beginning of a great synchronicity between Glee Club and football.
Just ask any of the the football guys that are back for homecoming.
So, why aren't they here trying to recruit me? Why'd they send you? 'Cause we both like guys? Look, I know we don't have much else in common, but only a gay man knows what it's like for us out there.
I know, when you were in high school, being gay was how you primarily identified yourself, but that's not my thing.
But don't you think it's everyone else's thing? When I told people I was gay, only two people had a problem with it.
Coach Beiste kicked them off the team.
Look, you're you're naive if you don't think you're standing on our shoulders.
Okay, you owe Glee Club.
Please.
I owe Modern Family.
Listen, when Coach Beiste kicked those guys off the team, they cornered me in the parking lot when I was getting into my car.
Got all up in my face.
One of them ended the day with his jaw wired shut, and the other I don't think he ever stopped running.
I can't stand Gaga, I've never seen Newsies, and I don't write Archie fan fiction where Archie and Jughead are hot for each other.
Just because you and I happened to be born in the same ten percent of the population that would choose Andrew Garfield over Emma Stone, doesn't mean we have anything else in common.
So, I'm not saying no to your glee club because it's gay or straight; I'm saying no because I think it sucks.
I'm sorry, man.
Ready? Distinguished councilmen, fellow Warblers, may I present Jane Heyward.
Oh Some people talk about you Like they know all about you When you get down, they doubt you And when you're tippin' on the scene Yeah, they talkin' 'bout it 'Cause they can't tip on the scene What you talkin' 'bout it, t-t-t-talkin' 'bout it When you get elevated They love it or they hate it You dance up on them haters Keep getting funky on the scene While they jumpin' round you They're trying to take all your dreams But you can't allow it 'Cause, baby, whether you're high or low Whether you're high or low You got to tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it Now let me see you do the tightrope Tip, tip on it And I'm still tippin' on it I tip on alligators and little rattlesnakers But I'm another flavor, something like a Terminator Ain't no equivocating I fight for what I believe Why you talkin' about it? N-N-Now whether I'm high or low High or low Whether I'm high or low High or low I got to tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it Now, baby, tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it You can't get too high You can't get too high I said you can't get too low You can't get too low One, two, three, ha! Yeah Yeah Baby, whether I'm high or low High or low Baby, whether you're high or low You got to tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it Yeah, tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it Baby, baby, whether you're high or low High or low Baby, whether you're high or low You got to tip on the tightrope Tip, tip on it Baby, let me see you tightrope Tip, tip on it Right here Oh oh Oh Oh, you Got to stay on the scene Yeah Tightrope Oh, yeah, yeah, ooh.
The Tea Party Patriot Club has now come to order.
First order of business Protecting McKinley's borders.
Attention! At ease, teabaggers.
I'm Airman First Class Noah Puckerman.
But you can call me sir.
When we went to McKinley, we were part of conservative clubs as well, such as the Celibacy Club and the God Squad.
Most of you guys are Christians, right? We're all Christian.
Before I joined Glee Club, I only hung out with people that were exactly like me.
And then Puck got her pregnant, and she sort of changed for the better.
The point is, nerds You need to take the three-cornered hats out of your loser butts and join the New Directions! They'll take anybody.
Even you.
Sir, I was brought up to respect my elders.
But don't call us losers.
The Tea Party Patriots is McKinley's most popular club.
Oh, my God, that's horrible.
What is happening to America?! I'll tell you what's happened.
We've grown up in the biggest economic depression since the 1930s.
Our mission is to fix the mess that Barack Hussein Obama created before he and the homo-elite turn this country into a Muslim welfare state.
Oh, no.
Oh, hell to the no.
You know what? Don't you, you or you join the glee club.
'Cause, you know, we don't need you ignorant, backwards, lily-white, gay-hating, Obama-bashing clubbers anyway.
Nope.
I will be taking these.
Yeah.
And you know what? Quinn once had sex with a Latina lesbian.
Ooh.
Learned that in Glee Club.
M-My bad.
Order.
Order! Order.
The Warbler Council voted against you.
They saw how talented you are, but they're a brotherhood, and they voted to keep it that way.
What am I gonna tell my dad? You are gonna tell him that we are not giving up on you because I am going straight to the Dalton board of directors and telling them that I am not interested in coaching the Warblers if you're not one of them.
So you're going to threaten to resign so I can join a club where nobody wants me? Yeah.
Yeah, because this is wrong.
This is wrong.
And sometimes, if you want to make change, you-you got to make a little noise.
I can fix this.
I just need a little time.
Okay, just remember Sex sells.
That's true, that's how Lady Tubbington got.
Lord Tubbington caught up in a Ponzi scheme.
I got one more problem with you, girl Hey Hey, baby, even though I hate ya I wanna love ya I want you And even though I can't forgive ya I really wanna I want you Tell me, tell me, baby Why can't you leave me? 'Cause even though I shouldn't want it I gotta have it I want you Head in the clouds Got no weight on my shoulders I should be wiser And realize that I've got One less problem without ya I got one less problem without ya I got one less problem without ya I got one less, one less problem I know you're never gonna wake up I better give up But it's you I know I shouldn't ever call back Or let you come back But I do Every time you touch me And say you love me I get a little bit breathless I shouldn't want it But I do Head in the clouds Got no weight on my shoulders I should be wiser And realize that I've got Smart money betting I'll be better off without you In no time I'll be forgetting all about you You saying that you know, but I really, really doubt you Understand my life is easy when I ain't around you Half-stepping, either you want it or you just playing I'm listenin' to you knowin' I can't believe whatcha sayin' There's a million yous, baby boy, so don't be dumb I got 99 problems, but you won't be one Like what Oh One less, one less problem Head in the clouds Got no weight on my shoulder I should be wiser And realize that I've got One less problem without ya Hey I've got one less problem without ya Oh, babe I've got one less problem without ya Ooh I got one less, one less problem Ooh I've got one less problem without ya Yeah, yeah.
I've got one less problem without ya I've got one less, one less, yeah I got one less, one less problem Problem, yeah.
You guys got some great moves.
We could really use some of that in the glee club.
Yeah, you could.
Oh, hi, Artie.
Kitty, wh-where have you been? I thought Sue made all the New Directions! transfer out of McKinley.
We need you back.
You really think I'm gonna come back and help you and your stupid glee club after the way you treated all of us? The way you treated me when you went away to college? Sue didn't make me transfer because she's smart enough to recognize a star player when she sees one.
Unlike Rachel Berry who never even knew any of our names.
I know your name, it's Quinn.
I'm Quinn.
Liar.
Listen, don't you guys want to do more than just get shot out of cannons? Don't you want to be a star? Oh, that is rich coming from you.
Pathetically stuffed back into your Cheerios! Uniforms again.
Can two people try out together? Yes.
Yep.
Yeah, I don't see why not.
The three of us tried out together.
Of course the incest twins want in.
Let's go, ladies.
We have to explain to these two again why Flowers in the Attic is not a love story to aspire to.
If you really want to get Blaine back, here's what you do.
First, promise him you're gonna burn all your clothing and then tell him you're gonna start dressing like a normal person.
Then I think you should really start getting honest with him about following your life's ambition, which is becoming America's top Barbara Bush impersonator.
That's not my life's ambition.
That's hilarious.
Okay, guys progress report.
How's it going with the new recruits? Horrible.
It ain't working.
It's not good, Rachel.
Glee Club has fallen so far at this school, we're not gonna be able to get anyone to join.
I'm singing out There's the voice again.
Oh Dudes, he's in the showers in the locker room.
They're always in the showers.
Shh! Oh Can you hear me now, can you hear me now? I'm singing out O-Oh oh Oh, God.
Are you guys gonna beat me up? 'Cause I just need a second to get in the fetal position No, no, we we heard you singing.
Yeah, you're amazing.
Dude, you've got to audition for the glee club.
So people can make fun of me more than they already do? Even the principal calls me "White Precious.
" Come here, you are precious.
Well, all anybody cares about in Glee Club is the way you sing.
Look, no one has signed up for your club yet, right? Okay.
Well, having me as your first member is just gonna drive kids away even more.
I have designed my entire life around people not noticing me.
Look, no one has wanted to feel more invisible than I have over the past couple of months.
But when I'm with these people, they remind me of the best parts of myself.
And they would never make fun of me.
Mmm, not to her face, no way.
You're the poster child for Glee Club.
You're why Mr.
Shue started the club in the first place.
I-It's a place where misfits can fit in.
Will you please try out? I'm really sorry that I came on so strong.
But you can sing whatever you want.
Yeah, I guarantee you're gonna get in.
Look at all of us.
We're all so different, and yet there's nothing that we wouldn't do for each other.
We're all just a phone call away.
And that is because we took a chance on Glee Club.
And that's something that you deserve as well.
Dear Journal, I am living a nightmare.
Just when I thought.
I had finally killed my white whale, vanquished the tone-deaf pansexual Leviathan that is the McKinley High Glee Club, it returns to defile the great musical heritage of this nation one execrable mashup at a time.
So forlorn am I that my Pakistani doctor has informed me that I, Sue Sylvester, have developed a duodenal ulcer.
Ah And now I've taken to drinking a mixture of motor oil, Bloody Mary mix and bat guano, just so I can bleed out and die.
There must be some way I can get at that glee club, some naive unsuspecting pawn I can bend to my will to dismantle that glee club once and for all.
Wait a minute.
That's it.
Oh, Journal, once again, you've given me reason to go on.
Sue Sylvester knows who her shiny new plaything will be.
So let me get this straight, Sue.
Uh, Principal Sylvester.
You want me to infiltrate the glee club and be terrible on purpose so that everybody gets demoralized and quits.
It works every time.
And I'll make it worth your while.
What's that? This is a one-of-a-kind, custom-molded Tom Brady Fleshlight.
Um, no, thank you.
Okay, well How about I hook up with my friends at Pfizer to supply me with enough anti-nausea pills so I can stomach a conversation with the lovably hideous Coach Beiste and force her to make you the starting quarterback.
I'm gonna have to be really honest with you, Sue.
It's, uh, Principal Sylvester.
First of all, I'm not for sale.
And secondly, if you want to get rid of the glee club, you're gonna have to get better items than that.
Touché, postmodern gay.
Hey, uh, can you, can you take your headphones off? It's distracting me.
Uh, actually, I kind of need No, it's fine.
It's okay.
You can keep them on.
We get it.
Everyone has their own security blanket.
We just want to hear you sing.
Mustang Sally Uh Huh Guess you better slow your Mustang down Oh, Lord What I said now Uh Mustang Sally, now, baby Oh, Lord Guess you better slow your Mustang down Uh Oh, yeah You've been runnin' all over the town now Oh, I guess you'll have to put Your flat feet on the ground Uh What I said now Listen, all you want to do Is ride around, Sally Ride, Sally, ride All you want to do is ride around, Sally Ride, Sally, ride All you want to do is ride around, Sally Ride, Sally, ride All you want to do is ride around, Sally Ride, Sally, ride Listen One of these early mornings I'm gonna be wiping your weeping eyes What I said Oh, Lord What I said now Oh Ride, Sally, ride Yeah! Oh, wait.
Thank you.
Uh, we'll be posting names this week, but that was really amazing, Roderick.
Thank you.
Why don't we just let him in? Okay, you're in! Thank you.
Loyal subjects, Homecoming Day is upon us, and I am pleased to welcome back one of McKinley High's most distinguished graduates, who will serve as Grand Marshal for tonight's activities.
Becky Jackson, I hand it over to you.
Becky.
Listen up, bitches.
Tonight Becky Jackson's in charge.
Rule number one, I'm bringing my Taser.
I am going to drop anyone who is not dressed in school colors.
Rule number two, no making out under the bleachers.
That's where I'm gonna make out.
Rule number three, every student must bring two books to burn at the bonfire.
Rule number four Okay, that's enough.
Give me the microphone.
Give me the microphone.
The losing team will be sacrificed.
Okay, that's enough.
Let go of the microphone.
Honey, I'm gonna peel your fingers off one by one.
Give me the microphone! Give it to me! Oh, there she is.
Come on.
You don't want to be late for the first official glee club meeting.
You okay? Yeah, I was just thinking about Mr.
Shue.
About how he did it.
About how he turned nothing into what we became.
As individuals and as a team and as friends.
Well, we can't recreate what we had, but we have to be open to finding something new - or different or better.
- Yes.
So, why don't we just have the meeting in here? I mean, since I am the only member? First of all, we have to have the first meeting in the choir room.
It's tradition.
And second of all, you're not the only member.
- Someone new joined yesterday.
- Wait, who? I cannot believe you did this! We sat down, we made rules.
No poaching.
It's not poaching.
She came to me.
I don't feel comfortable with this.
Even if they let me on the Warblers, I'll be fighting for every vocal breakout.
Yeah, you'll be fighting that fight anywhere.
Yeah, but at least here, it'll be a fair fight.
With the changes Principal Sylvester has made to the school, it's academically on par with any private school in the state.
My parents are willing to let me transfer here if it's what I want.
And besides, what did you expect me to do? I mean, say no? Jane asked me not to say anything until the transfer papers were through.
I just spent the last two days threatening to quit my job in order to convince everyone to let her in, and as soon as I did, she tells me she's leaving to join your team? I was humiliated.
Blaine, you have a full team and God knows how many other students at Dalton that would kill to join.
Don't act all cool and loving about this, Kurt.
I'm sure you're very happy about all of this.
I wouldn't be surprised if you made this all happen after seeing you with Dave.
Uh, maybe I should just go.
- No, it's okay.
No, stay.
- No, no, stay.
- You're fine.
- You should stay and see what kind of people your coaches are.
This whole friendly competition thing it's over.
The new and improved glee club has officially begun.
Introducing our first two members, Jane and Roderick.
If you build it, they will come.
Well, they'd better come fast.
I mean, I'm sorry, but two people? Shut up, Tina.
There's actually four.
As per usual, my undeniable sexual magnetism has worked yet again.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mason and Madison McCarthy.
Hey, gang.
We're super pumped there's a glee club again.
Now, I know what you're thinking.
They can obviously log roll and kick toss, but can they sing? - Well, not to toot our own horns - Toot! But we've won karaoke night at the Wapakoneta Summer Cheer Camp every year since we were three.
It's in our blood.
Our parents met while touring with the inspirational, world-famous singing group, Up with People.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I think I've made a mistake.
No, it's okay.
You're welcome.
I mean, you're gonna have to audition.
We have a very rigorous process.
I mean, not really.
Sugar Motta was literally tone-deaf.
Yeah, but she was hot.
I'm actually really happy.
This is the start of something really special.
And I know that most of you came home just for homecoming and not for me and Kurt, but we can't tell you how grateful we are for your help.
- Get over here.
- Let's hug.
- Bring it in.
- Get in for this.
You guys, bring it in! Start getting comfortable with group hugs.
