"I hold in my hand, ladies and gentlemen, our competition for regionals." "(cheering)" "Drumroll, please." "From..." "North Central High School in Indianapolis, the Hoosierdaddies." "That's very clever." "And from Our Lady of Perpetual Loneliness in Battle Creek, Michigan, the Nun-Touchables." "BLAINE:" "Wait, is that a convent?" "WILL:" "Guys, I like our chances against both these squads, but we still got a lot of work to do." "Mr. Shue, please stop talking." "I have an announcement." "I regret to inform you a deadly asteroid is headed our way." "Wait, didn't we just go through this at Christmas?" "TINA:" "Yeah, and is it true you and Sam got married?" "Did that happen?" "Shut up, Tina." "I'm naming this comet." "Tubbington-Bopp, and it is headed straight for Lima." "Wait, so is it an asteroid or a comet?" "It's both." "Wouldn't NASA know something about this?" "We can't trust NASA." "I mean, last month a meteor exactly like Tubbington-Bopp hit Russia with no warning at all." "Oh, so now it's a meteor." "That's right, Artie, And when this meteorite hits," "I will not be spending my time in this room preparing for regionals." "I will be spending my last hours making amends with somebody who" "I need to get right with." "Someone who I love very much." "Lord Tubbington." "So go back to your homes and hide your wife, hide your kids and hide your wife." "McKinley High, I salute you." "BRITTANY:" "I'm really surprised that Jesus Christ Superstar has chosen to end the world this way instead of the way he killed off the dinosaurs, which was a global yeast infection." "Do you think God will let me be a girl angel in heaven?" "Wait, there are girl and boy angels?" "Does that mean you can have angel sex?" "WILL:" "All right." "Show of hands." "Who's worried about." "Brittany's meteor/asteroid/comet prediction?" "Okay." "Well, here's how I see it." "There are two possible outcomes." "First, the meteor misses us and we go to regionals and we kick butt, which will only happen if we prepare." "Or... we only have a few days to live and if that's the case, we need to say everything we need to say to the people we love." "I can tell you from those couple of weeks where I couldn't talk to Emma that there is nothing worse than unfinished business with the one you love." "And meteor or no meteor any moment you have with those people might be your last one." "Bruce Springsteen always says that he plays every show as if it's his last, and that is the kind of urgency we need at regionals this year." "So this week we're either gonna sing our last songs to each other or get in touch with what it feels like to do that." "(school bell ringing)" "Okay, everyone." "Let's make the most of it." "Dude." "Dude, I saw her." "She goes here." "I can't believe the coincidence." "Whoa, whoa." "Slow down." "Saw who?" "Her." "Katie." "(sighs) Okay, listen, I haven't told you 'cause it's a little embarrassing, but I've been having this text-lationship with this girl I met online." "She's funny, she's smart, she totally gets me, but I figured she lived, like, halfway across the country or something and I'd have to steal my mom's Volvo for a spring break roadie to God knows where just to meet her." "But just this morning..." "I was taking that English test on 1984, getting totally frustrated about how I'm supposed to write an essay on the dystopian future when the book is set, like, 13 years before I was even born." "And then I looked up to clear my head and there she was." "♪ There is one in a million like you ♪" "I couldn't believe it." "I thought I was hallucinating, but she looked right back at me as she walked by." "It was definitely her." "I tried to get up and go after her, but..." "I think I'm in love with this girl." "(chuckles) Dude, you've got to slow down." "You haven't even met her yet." "It's like I've more than met her, okay?" "Without all the awkwardness of looks or clothes or hairdos, we really got to know each other." "On the real." "I've got to meet her." "I think I'm gonna skip next hour and just go class to class, looking in the windows until I find her." "Okay, and then what?" "You can't just walk into the middle of some class." "You can't wait for her in the hall and say, "Hi, I'm in love with you."" "You need some kind of a plan." "And it has to be special." "(bell ringing)" "Lord Tubbington," "I know that through the years we haven't always gotten along." "Like the time that you filed paperwork to have me committed or the time you told the police that I was the one that brutally murdered that whole family of mice." "But I want you to know that through it all," "I always loved you." "I don't think he believes me." "'Cause he won't say that he loves me, too." "What's Lord Tubbington's favorite song?" "I mean, maybe... you could let him know how much he means to you by singing it to him." "Well, I stopped singing to Lord Tubbington out of protest when he joined the KKKK, which is the Ku Klux Klan for Kats." "SAM:" "You know, you could bring him by and then we could all sing to him." "That way, you know, he'll see how much you love him, and everybody else in the glee club will stop feeling like you're choosing a cat over them." "Sam, despite your outlandishly low test scores, you're a genius." "(bell ringing)" "H-Hey." "How you doing?" "Me?" "Yeah, you." "I've been dying to talk to you." "(chuckles) Seriously?" "Yeah." "I saw you walk by my class this morning and I almost ran out of a test to come meet you." "(chuckles) I'm kind of freaking out right now." "That's cool." "So am I. Uh, sorry." "I should really do this properly." "I'm Ryder Lynn." "Yeah." "Yeah, I know who you are." "Would you mind coming with me?" "Hey, how you doing?" "What is happening?" "And... (quietly):" "...who are they?" "They're the band." "And..." "Oh, my..." "God." "If I know you the way I think I do, you're gonna love it even more after."

"No." "No, I, um..." "Look." "See?" "Uh... here are all our texts, and that's a picture you sent me of yourself." "Well, yeah, that's my picture, but I didn't send it to you." "I-I never wrote any of those texts." "Oh, my God." "Someone's catfishing you." "It happened to Manti Te'o." "Someone stole a picture of me and used it created a fake identity to get close to you."

"You didn't have to make me feel so pathetic." "I thought you were still my friends." "I swear to you we did not do this." "Well, it had to be somebody close to me, all right?"

"Shannon..." "Emma and I are back together." "I've been meaning to tell you about it." "I mean, we have been for a week or so." "I-I want you be happy for me, and I-I..."

"Would it really be that bad?" "You have to admit, she has been much cooler lately, and maybe the only way she can be completely honest is by being anonymous."

"Couldn't stop thinking about you." "You were all I thought about, too." "Not Lord Tubbington?" "No." "At first, I thought he might be the one doing the shooting." "I've kind of been a jerk about him lately." "I mean, it's not like he's that nice to me." "I shut down his e-mail account so he wouldn't send you any more harassing messages." "Look, he's your cat, and if he's important to you, he's important to me, too." "That said..." "Mm." "I've been thinking that we needed something that's really ours." "We had a fake wedding, and I think we should also start a fake family." "Did you get me a fake baby?" "Better." "(gasps)" "Her name is Lady Tubbington." "I made sure to get a fat one at the shelter so Lord Tubbington doesn't feel self-conscious." "Oh." "How long was she in there for?" "A while." "(growling) Oh." "She's amazing." "Mm." "I love you." "I love you." "(footsteps approaching)" "(sighs)" "Why, Sue?" "Why did you do it?" "Well, I had my reasons." "I explained them to Principal Figgins." "I heard... but I don't accept that." "Bringing a gun to school?" "That's not you." "BECKY:" "I was scared, Coach." "About graduating, being out in the world with no one to protect me." "Honey, told you."
