"So here's what you missed on Glee." "Ryder's getting catfished and he has no idea who's doing it, except he sort of knows who's doing it 'cause when he called them, someone's phone rang in the choir room, which means it's somebody in Glee Club." "Sue left McKinley to protect Becky, which is crazy, and Santana's living in New York with Kurt and Rachel, but she doesn't have a bedroom and she doesn't go to NYADA, so what exactly is she doing, anyway?" "And that's what you missed on Glee." "(school bell ringing)" "Hey, Kitty, who are you texting?" "Let me see your phone." "I'm playing 4 Pics 1 Word, weirdo stalker." "Do I need to get a restraining order?" "Guys, we got a problem." "Her name is Frida Romero." "With regionals only a few weeks away," "I went to scout out the competition." "♪ The bombs bursting in air..." "The Hoosierdaddies have a secret weapon." "She's a tiny little sophomore, never competed before, but her voice could fill an arena." "I mean, it's big." "And the only way to beat them is to be huge." "I'm talking stadium huge." "Epic songs that will blow the heads off of 100,000 people at a time." "Zombie apocalypse." "Or Beyonce's halftime show." "FIGGINS:" "Children, this power outage is not an emergency." "(cheering)" "Nor is it an excuse to go wilding through the hallways." "While we're investigating the root of this near calamity, classes will continue and your brains are to remain in the on positions." "If the darkness persists, candles and flashlights will be distributed based on grade point average." "I now have to turn off the P.A. system so I can save our precious generator resources for the coffee machine and my plug-in lower back vibrator." "Okay, that puts a damper on our stadium songs." "Time for a new appropriate lesson." "Ladies and gentlemen, it's unplugged week." "I can't believe she blew me off like that." "Who?" "Katie?" "How do you even know this person is a she?" "Or even a human?" "Look, stop, all right?" "All I know is I've had this really amazing connection." "You've got to let this go, man." "It's crazy." "You don't even know her." "Look, you don't understand, Jake." "I've never felt so close to someone." "Look, I told her things about myself, about my past," "I've never told anyone." "Ever." "If this were to get out..." "Wait." "I thought your biggest secret was dyslexia." "Well, what is it?" "(sighs)" "I can't." "Fine, dude, keep it all locked away for a few more years, but it's not going away." "Maybe you should think about starting to share your deep, dark secrets with people you actually know." "(school bell ringing)" "Right?" "I found this out by the Dumpster." "With a little TLC and three clicks from Kurt's ruby slippers, this bad boy would be salvageable." "Um, can you please take a seat, because Kurt and I would like to have a conversation with you." "All right, you know what, Rachel, if you are still obsessing over what you're gonna sing at your Funny Girl callback, may I suggest your best jam ever," ""Run, Joey, Run."" "We think you're throwing your life away." "KURT:" "It's bad enough you let those horny tourists grope you for tips at that awful Coyote Ugly bar, (groans) but Tina just informed me that you are now a bouncer at a lesbian beer garden?" "And you're a go-go girl." "A go-go girl!" "Oh, yeah, a girl-bar go-go girl." "I am a cage dancer..." "big difference." "I'm dressed as Barbarella, and I'm sorry, but some of us actually need to work for a living." "Okay, that's not the point." "Okay, you're so talented, Santana." "You're, like, the most talented person I know, obviously with the exception of me and Kurt." "But your voice, it's electric, and I would kill for half of your dancing abilities." "So I'm telling you what you told me, which is that you just need to stop and focus on your talent." "Well, maybe I don't want to be in Funny Girl, okay?" "Or be a singing waiter at the Fire Island Pancake Shack." "So why don't you just stop trying to force all of your creaky old-time Broadway dreams on to my amazingly awesome dream." "And what's that?" "I am trying to figure that out." "What is so wrong with taking a little time to figure things out?" "Nothing." "But what about doing something in the meantime?" "Like dance lessons?" "NYADA has a great extension program for non-students." "Yeah." "Something to keep your motors revved, you know..." "My "motor"" "is revved every night that I cage dance." "And while I appreciate your pity," "I don't really think I need to be taking any advice from TV's Blossom and Lady Elaine Fairchilde." "Would you take your chair with you?" "(school bell ringing)" "All right, I know these conditions aren't ideal, but I want to thank you guys for toughing it out." "And we have our first volunteer, who is going to show us how to get back to basics and really strip it down." "So, let's give it up for Sam." "(clears throat) Right." "Uh, take it away." "Thanks." "Um, well, when Mr. Shue started talking about being big," "I started thinking about Phil Spector's legendary Wall of Sound, and how he would use, like, thousands of instruments so his songs could really fill a stadium." "And then I started thinking about stripping, um, out all that extra noise to get to the essence of the song." "Plus, my mom said that I was conceived to this song, so I kind of literally owe my existence to the Righteous Brothers." "Anyways, uh, here it goes." "♪ You never close your eyes" "♪ Anymore when I kiss your lips ♪" "♪ And there's no tenderness" "♪ Like before" "♪ In your fingertips" "♪ You're trying hard not to show it ♪" "♪ But, baby" "♪ Baby, I know it" "♪ You've lost that lovin' feelin' ♪" "♪ Whoa, that lovin' feelin'" "♪ You've lost that lovin' feelin' ♪" "♪ Now it's gone, gone, gone" "♪ Whoa-whoa-oh" "(knocks)" "♪ We had a love" "♪ A love, a love you don't find every day ♪" "♪ Oh, baby" "♪ Oh, baby ♪ ♪ So don't" "♪ Don't, don't" "♪ Don't let it slip away" "♪ Baby" "♪ Baby ♪ ♪ Yeah" "♪ Bring back that lovin' feelin' ♪" "♪ Whoa, that lovin' feelin'" "♪ Bring back that lovin' feelin' ♪" "♪ 'Cause it's gone, gone, gone" "♪ And I can't go on" "♪ Whoa-whoa-whoa."

"(high note plays)" "I'm sorry, Mr. Shue." "I can't do Miguel without my synth." "I needs my synth!" "No, you needs to man up." "Excuse me?" "You know how often the power went off at my house, how many times my dad couldn't afford to pay the stupid bill?" "Relax, dude." "I had to entertain my brother and sister with just my guitar and my voice, and we didn't have any synth." "I mean, like, I saw you texting during my song, and it's not just you;" "It's all of us." "We're so focused on being plugged in to the Twitterverse and the Blogosphere that we don't appreciate what's actually right in front of us." "And I think that that's just sad and lame." "(school bell ringing)" "Great, so we'll include a Blu-ray of Black Swan, um, in the gift bag and a note from the director, "How Ballet Inspired Me."" "Oh, that's perfect." "Thanks, Darren." "I appreciate it." "Oh, and, uh, listen, you're at my table, seated next to Christopher." "So be nice." "All right, bye." "Darren...?" "Aronofsky." "Christopher Nolan." "Oh." "You may be seated." "So, first of all, how is your dad?" "Oh, uh, thank you for asking." "He's doing good." "Um, he's back at work, and all his treatments seem to be working." "Good, I'm happy to hear that." "I thought you might have called me in here because, um, you were gonna fire me." "What?" "Why would I do that?" "When you gave me the internship, you said it would be 24/7, and ever since I got accepted to NYADA... (phone vibrates)" "You haven't been coming in as much." "We've noticed." "But quality trumps quantity always." "And though NYADA's gain" "I will never stop anyone from pursuing their passion." "But I need your help." "You know I'm co-chairing the gala for New York City Ballet's educational programs?" "Yeah, it's only the social event of the performing arts season." "My celebrity wrangler just canceled." "It was going to be Anna's daughter, but she got the chicken pox à la Barbara Walters." "So I need somebody." "I need somebody good who can dive in ASAP." "If anyone else does this, I-I will literally die." "Okay." "All right." "Yes." "And listen, um, if you want to draft a couple of friends to help you out, that's good, too." "Yeah?" "SUE:" "Dear journal, I speak to you now not as Sue Sylvester, world-class coach and educatrix, but as Sue Sylvester, freelance champion."

"But now that you're gone, I can see that all the Cheerio girls are lost without you, and frankly, as student council president," "I'm a little worried about the kind of advice Coach Roz is giving." "And that is why you all signed up with Dr. Fong to get a couple of those fatty ribs removed for flexibility." "What?" "You know, I always thought" "Becky could look like a young Dolly Parton with a couple less ribs." "Something went down at that school, and it has something to do with you." "Someway, somehow, the kids are still shaken up." "No one feels safe." "Set the record straight." "We need you, Coach Sue." "(school bell ringing)" "ARTIE:" "Hey." "I was thinking about what you said, and you're totally right." "I kind of got inspired when I was rolling down the hallway in between classes." "(squeaks)" "And the sound it made was almost musical, and it got me thinking; we don't have to have electricity to make music." "We don't even need real instruments." "I didn't say you couldn't use instruments." "I was..." "I know, but think about it." "We want to win regionals, and we're gonna have to do it as a team." "And imagine how we could get everybody working together if we pushed ourselves to pull off a song with nothing but a water bottle and pencils and a zipper, and who knows what else." "You want unplugged." "This would be unplugged squared." "(school bell ringing) I like it." "Ladies?" "What is the event the Big Apple's hoi polloi must be invited to or they'll pull a Javert and swan dive off the Chrysler Building?" "The New York City Ballet Gala, duh."

"Make fun of it all you want, but the New York City Ballet Gala, it's a celebration of a timeless art." "If it wasn't for ballet, I wouldn't be here." "It was my gateway into show business." "My dance teacher told me that I was a mini Margot Fonteyn." "She taught me the power of music, and although that dance studio was just a tiny, moldy Lima storefront, to me, it was the most beautiful place on earth." "KURT:" "I started ballet at the ripe old age of three." "My mom enrolled me after seeing me in front of the TV, jetéing and debouléeing to the Blues Clues theme song." "That ballet class was one of the few places that just seemed to fit." "And even when I saw some of the kids and their parents laughing at me, something inside my little brain said," ""Screw them." "Just go for it, Hummel."" "My can-do attitude was born in that room." "And I skipped all that crap to study the timeless art of crunk." "Look, you can tell Isabelle that I am definitely in." "Not me, count me out." "You mean you don't want to wear a designer dress that you get to keep as a gift?" "I'm in." "She's in." "She's in." "I know these songs are supposed to be unplugged, but I asked Mr. Shue permission to do a full orchestration." "Which I gladly agreed to, because Ryder eloquently told me that what he wanted to unplug were his feelings." "I want to really reveal myself through this song."

"I've actually only told one person this." "Not even my parents know." "But..." "I'm not sure if I could trust that person to keep it secret." "So before this gets out," "I want to be the one to open the box." "When I was 11, I was molested by my babysitter." "She just walked in on me in the shower, and she touched me a bit."

"I'd have killed for that." "Why are you ashamed of this?" "I don't know, I..." "It kind of messed me up a bit." "Like, I have trouble trusting girls because of it, I think." "Guys, this is not something to high-five about." "Ryder, I'm sorry, but I'm obligated to report it." "Whatever, she already got locked up." "She was caught doing it to some other kid." "SAM:" "Okay, I'm sorry, but why-why is that a crime?" "I mean, it's every teenage boy's fantasy." "I mean, there's, like, 50 '80s movies about it."

"You know, I was sort of surprised when you asked me to dinner, 'cause I know you're, like, dating Jake's brother and everything." "Puck and I broke up." "He dumped me when he went off to live at a college he doesn't go to." "From a distance, Puck is super hot, but you don't really realize until you're right up close how puffy he is." "(chuckles)" "Here you go." "I don't know why I have such terrible luck with guys." "It's probably because I come on really strong and pretend to be all slutty, and then I freeze up right away and get distant and drop weird hints that my vagina has teeth." "But I didn't come here to talk about the razor-sharp barbs guarding my cervix." "I noticed how withdrawn you got this week in Glee Club after you told everyone your secret." "It may have seemed like no one else in that room understood what you went through, but..." "I did." "It was, um, my friend Julie's older brother." "I was in sixth grade." "One night," "Julie had a sleepover, and in the middle of the night, he came down into the basement and crawled into my sleeping bag." "At first, I thought it was a joke." "I didn't know what was happening." "But then he started, um... to feel me in places." "In the morning, I went straight home without saying good-bye, and I couldn't tell my parents for a while." "I was afraid of upsetting them or something." "So when I did tell them, they were really confused." "They didn't understand why I waited so long to say something about it." "My mom called his parents, and all I could hear her say was how good of a kid he was and how she didn't know how something like that could happen." "And then Julie stopped talking to me and told everyone at school that I was spreading rumors about her brother." "Then she told all my friends to stop talking to me." "Finally," "I just decided it'd just be easier to switch schools." "So I did." "I understand what it feels like to have something like that happen to you and feel like nobody understands."
