"RACHEL:" "There's only one way to assert my God-given superiority." "MERCEDES:" "Sit front and center in the Rachel chair." "Greet each other." "Hello, Rachel." "I am so happy to hear about all of your success." "Oh, thank you so much, Mercedes." "And you are looking well." "Thank you." "Now, if you'll excuse me," "I'll make my way to the back of the bus." "100 lessons." "Hey, can I get Finn's plaque when we clear this place out?" "No, the plaque stays here." "Lillian and Finn belong here at McKinley." "It means so much to me that so many of you came back on such short notice to celebrate the past few years." "To sit in this room one last time and sing." "Your assignment is to sing one of the songs we sang in here, but reinvented in some way." "Way back in the old days when I started the glee club," "I would give an assignment, and then I would..." "I would give a little demonstration of what I was looking for." "ALL:" "Yeah!" "See, you all cheer now, but just wait till he starts rapping." "Okay, no hip-hop today, Santana." "However, I have asked a very special person to come join me." "And it seemed appropriate since her contributions helped save the glee club, or at least the auditorium way back when." "Please welcome, all the way from Broadway," "Miss April Rhodes!" "Hey, y'all!" "(all cheering, whooping)" "(laughs)" "You know, she once taught me how to shoplift meat" " in my vagina." " Ew." "Right?" "So, Mr. Moneybags says to me, he says," ""April Rhodes, you sing like an angel" ""and make love like a tiger." ""But the old ball and chain's got your number." "So I'm afraid I gots to set you loose."" "So, you know what he did?" "He bought me an island!" "(laughs) That's right." "I own my own island in the Caribbean called Santa Abrilrodeo." "It's not war-torn or filled with landslides or got destitute locals in it." "Just me and my manservant Kadeem." "With long, sensuous nights full of home-brewed poi and intimate massage..." "Okay, thank you, April, for that... wonderful lesson in female empowerment." "Amen!" "ARTIE:" "Amen, but... why are we all holding these plastic champagne flutes?" "'Cause we are about to pop the cork with some bubbly." "But don't worry, this Spumante is virgin." "Probably like you will be for a long time." "(laughs)" "Anyways...

"never sang" ""Raise Your Glass." The Warblers did that." "I was wondering why it didn't annoy me every time I heard it in my head."

"It was that money that you placed into an annuity to fund the auditorium in perpetuity." "That's right." "Well, it didn't last." "In fact, that money ran out six weeks ago." "How?" "Will Schuester's profligate spending and his penchant for staging elaborate private bacchanalia replete with extravagant scenery and costumes not seen since the reign of Caligula." "I have here a line-item budget of the jungle set you constructed onstage a few weeks back so the glee club could perform a Katy Perry song literally for just you." "Whoa, whoa, hold-hold on." "Let-let me see that." "I don't know what the problem is, but whatever money the glee club needs," "I'm good for it." "April Rhodes is rich!" "No, April Rhodes is under indictment from the Securities and Exchange Commission and in violation of her $3 million bail that forbids her from leaving the state of New York." "Oh, snap!" "Wait, what?" "Well, what April may have neglected to mention is that her most recent john was none other than the disgraced financier" "Bernie Madoff." "All of April's assets, including her private island, have been frozen." "April, is this true?" "Gulp." "Sure sounds true, doesn't it?" "I'm sorry, Will." "It does appear that the glee club is indeed over." "(gasps dramatically)" "APRIL:" "Will, wait!" "Wait!" "This is yours." "Yes." "Will, wait!" "I can explain..." "Explain what, April?" "That's you're a pathological liar whom I never should have trusted?" "Yes, exactly." "You did the worst thing you possibly could've done." "You gave me hope." "What are you talking about?" "A tattoo?" "It's not that bad." "I mean, it was..." "On your lower back?" "Ryan Seacrest?" "I could get it removed." "There's not a laser big enough." "It's the size of Texas." "You should've told me this weeks ago." "We're in the 20th century." "That doesn't make sense." "The 21st, almost." "Is there a problem here?" "Puck, go away." "Okay?" "We're..." "Was she always this big of a liar?" "QUINN:" "I'm coming clean now." "Doesn't that mean something?" "Wh... a baby?" "I mean, what happens if we got married and this kid shows up looking for money?" "Are you crazy?" "Was this the loser who knocked you up?" "Yes, yes." "Puck is the father." "Yeah." "I am looking for acceptance here, okay?" "This is how I love." "That may be how you and your loser friends love, but where I come from, you carry your past with you." "You are the worst kind of hypocrite." "You walk around like you're some" "Snow frickin' White, but you're really just a dirty little slutbag." "Ow, ow, ow, ow!" "You shouldn't have said that." "Let go of my nose!" "Ow, God, let go!" "Am I bleeding?" "Not yet." "(grunting)" "You're hurting him!" "Stop!" "PUCK:" "Kind of the point!" "QUINN:" "Knock it off!" "Stop!" "Help me get him out of here." "Do you have any idea how much better you are than this guy?" "Look, you can crawl into the trash and help him out, or you can come be with your real friends in the choir room." "I'll be waiting." "(school bell ringing)" "WILL:" "All right, everybody." "It's time to get this voting nonsense out of the way so that we can continue on with what you all came here for:" "the music." "Y'all can use your left hand for anonymity." "But I'm left-handed." "Then use a foot." "Okay." "♪" "Dude, who you putting on?" "Well, I'm torn." "One is black and one is Jewish." "Okay, that's everybody." "So, um, sorry about that outburst earlier." "Mercedes and I have been talking." "And we both realize that asking you guys to vote for who's more talented is just, it's completely ridiculous, unproductive and narcissistic." "I mean, how could we ask you guys to choose between two beautiful queen divas?" "Well, funny enough, they did vote, and they did choose." "And guess what." "You're both equally talented in their eyes." "And mine." "(both laugh)" "(applause)" "Excuse me, excuse me." "I'd like to apologize." "It's not the first time I've raised someone's hopes and then left them on the rocky shores of disappointment and regret." "Just ask all of my A.A. sponsors." "April?" "We just want to spend the rest of the week singing in peace." "But I did do was use the last few hours of my NetJets account to bring in someone whose infectious happiness surely will make the next few days that much brighter." "Ladies and gentlemen... (cheering)" "Hola, clase." "April, thank you for buttering the floor for me." "You know I like to make an entrance." "Wait, I'm-I'm sorry." "How-how do you two know each other?" "Oh, because there's a whole Facebook page for people who were guests of Glee Club." "I'm on it, April..." "Blaine's brother, Rachel's mom, that Mexican guy." "(laughs):" "Holly..." "This is amazing." "Where have you been?" "Oh, I've been everywhere." "I quit being a substitute teacher because I couldn't stand being tied down." "I like teaching a room full of kids if I know" "I'm never gonna see them again, but then, if you're any good at it, they keep asking you back, which kind of defeats the purpose." "So, I started my trademark" "Holly Holliday Teachin' Pop-Ups." "I just show up at a classroom unannounced, teach a lesson and get the hell out of there." "(old-timey voice):" "Hello!" "I'm William Henry Harrison, America's worst president." "I exterminated a nation of Native Americans, and it got me elected." "But I refused to wear a coat to my inauguration, so I caught a cold and died a month later." "I accomplished nothing!" "(footsteps approaching)" "WOMAN:" "There she is!" "She just showed up, and she took over my class!" "Tippy-canoe!" "But when I heard Glee Club was ending," "I ripped off my Pol Pot uniform, hopped on that first flight out of Buenos Aires and came to pay my respects." "Uh, Holly, you know that we're singing our favorite Glee Club songs we've already sung before." "That's a terrible idea!" "Listen, that might be fine for you nerds, but when Holly Holliday is in town, this hot bitch is not looking in the rearview mirror;" "she's looking forward." "Hit it!"

"A long time ago." "And we saved him." "Rachel was his soul mate." "Who's yours?" "Biff?" "He's going back to Yale." "Alone." "SANTANA:" "This is so not cool." "Okay, they can't just chain you to a calculator and keep you as their math monkey." "Wait, do those actually exist?" "You need to be having a life." "You need to be out in the world going to restaurants and concerts and... and dating." "Yeah, I think I'm gonna blow this place, too." "Unless there's a reason for me to stay." "'Cause I know who my soul mate is." "Okay, um... it's a bad idea." "You don't want me." "I'm terrible at having a relationship that involves any level of honesty." "I love you." "Just tell me to stay." "'Cause the truth is there's only one guy that you were ever really honest with." "It feels really good to be around you." "You make me feel like a girl again."

"I've seen the world, and I'm sure now more than ever that I belong with you." "And I'm sure your girlfriend's great, but you can't re-create what you and I have." "Just tell me to stay." "Please." "So, it's your choice." "If you want me, I'm here." "♪" "Stay." "I want to show you guys something." "All of you that were together from the very beginning when the glee club was just a dream." "(sighs)" "Their new and final resting places." "For as long as McKinley's around, all the students who travel through this auditorium are gonna see these." "And have absolutely no idea who they are." "You know what?" "This is crazy." "Because I could really give two poops about this place, but this is really getting to me." "I know." "Why is that?" "WILL:" "We were all raised by different parents." "But we grew up together in the glee club." "It's a part of all of us." "Of course you're sad about it." "I don't know, Mr. Schue." "With this and Finn, it's kind of hard to believe that anything lasts." "I don't have any more pep talks." "I just have you guys." "And the memory of the people on this wall." "My friends." "I mean, we share this special bond." "We're the only ones in the world who-who know what this glee club meant to us." "What it felt like to sing together." "To be... to be together." "And what it feels like to say good-bye to it." "I didn't come here to cheer you up." "Just to thank you." "(crying):" "To thank you for going on this ride with me." "All right, come on." "We've still got a few days until, uh," "Sue shuts the lights out on the choir room, so... let's make the most of them." "I mean, I know we got to finish our wine first." "Mmm."
