"So here's what you missed on Glee." "It's springtime in the longest year ever at McKinley" "And it's almost time for graduation." "Sue's principal and Becky's her Beckretary," "Get out, bitch!" "Which is good because Becky made it clear" "She doesn't ever want to leave McKinley." "Jake cheated on Marley with demon hellspawn Bree" "And he, like, didn't even say "I'm sorry"" "Which totally hit Marley like a ton of bricks" "That she broke through with a wrecking ball." "Say what?" "And that's what you missed on Glee." "Hey, Sue, you mind telling me what's going on around here?" "Why, it is the First Annual" "McKinley High Career Fair." "Where students come to expose themselves to the job market and its entry-level corporate recruiters." "Who we hope, in turn, do not, (chuckles) well, expose themselves to our students." "But Sue, these jobs are-are terrible." "It' not the '90s anymore, William." "When any high-school dropout could stumble his way into a six-figure salary as COO of a dotcom startup." "Upon graduation, our students will be entering the most competitive job market in recent history." "But Sue, the thing that disturbs me is I don't see a booth theater or music or dance." "There is nothing here representing a career in the arts!" "Well, that's because there's no such thing as a career in the arts." "William, I will not encourage members of this student body to further endanger their already uncertain futures in the unrealistic and narcissistic pursuit of stardom when the very best they're likely to achieve is coaching a high school Glee Club" "and marrying a redheaded googly-eyed homo afarensis with early-onset-dressing- like-an-old lady disorder." "Not gonna do it." "However, if you would like to set up a stool in between Salad Artistry and..." "Fecal Sculpture, well, you're more than welcome to regale passersby with your inspiring story of how you dreamt of Broadway stardom and ended up rapping for high schoolers with a head of hair that looks just like Olympia Dukakis's merkin." "Hey, guys, in spite of the complete lack of representation at the Career Fair," "I know that a lot of you are thinking about a career in the arts." "Well, it's no secret that Sue Sylvester doesn't believe that an artistic career is a very practical idea." "And, for once, I have to admit she's right." "It's completely impractical." "You know, anyone pursuing the arts needs to go in with their eyes wide open." "We're talking zero job security and impossible odds." "But..." "I've always believed that you have to pursue what you love." "And that's why this week's assignment is about a goofy-looking kid who struggled for years in the music business." "Finally." "It's Marilyn Manson Week." "Close." "Billy Joel." " Who?" " Oh, just a musical genius who's sold over 150 million records worldwide." "WILL:" "That's right." "Billy had to fight every step of the way in his career." "He had countless failures and disappointments:" "writing songs that nobody wanted, playing piano in seedy bars just to pay the rent, being told he'd never make it because he didn't look "right."" "Translation: too Jewish." "But he ignored the haters and he kept pursuing his dream, becoming the third best-selling solo artist of all time." "I mean, he is a true inspiration to anyone pursuing a career in the arts, like our very own." "Mr. Blaine Anderson and Mr. Sam Evans." "(cheering and applause) That's right!" "All right, as some of you may or may not know, this week is my big." "NYADA audition." "I know." "It's terrifying." "So I'm leaving today to maybe get some last-minute tips from Kurt and Rachel." "And I'm going with him because I have an interview with the theater department at Hunter College." "They saw and they loved my "Tornado of Talent" impressions reel." "And I'm up for this awesome scholarship, the Channing Tatum Former Male Stripper Grant." "But we spoke to Mr. Shue and, because we have to miss this week's lesson, he thought the least we could do is maybe..." "Kick it off with our very own take on a classic BJ." "Billy..." "Billy Joel."

"a good student, but I realize that what I'm really good at is impressions, so, I started to do this impression of a good high school student, and it... it's kind of working." "Okay." "Tell me why you want to go to Hunter." "Um, I-I don't know that much about it, except that there... well, there's more women than guys, and that's..." "that's great for me, because I'm totally into feminist issues." "Like, just because women don't make as much as guys do to do the same job, it's totally not cool that they aren't given the same amount of respect." "And, like, why can't...?" "Well, why can guys go shirtless at the beach, but chicks can't?" "Oh." "Sorry." "Uh... girls can't." "I guess even I have a lot to learn still."

"I hate school." "I mean, I don't..." "I don't hate it." "I'm just..." "I'm not good at it." " Well, who says you have to?" " Well, I mean, ever since" "I was a kid I've seen these United Negro College Fund commercials, and it's, like, if you don't go to college, you're letting your whole family down, or you're destined for a life" "of eating out of Dumpsters or something." "I don't know." "So..." "please don't judge me." "Look, in life, it's not about knowing what you want." "It's about knowing what you can cross off your list that you don't want." "But I do know what I want to do." "I mean, it's been my dream since I was a kid." "Male modeling is pretty much the ultimate form of self-expression as far as I'm concerned." "It's like acting or singing, but the only tools you have to perform with are your striking good looks and great abs." "There is some truth to that." "All right, I have this vision." "You know, it's just so clear in my head." "I'm in Hollywood... and that's at one of those huge studios where they, uh, made Transformers and stuff."

"I'm terrified of the whole thing." "But the only way for us to grow is to face our fears and move forward." "Am I right?" "Do you want to go to college?" "What if I go, and everybody makes fun of me again?" "What if everybody calls me stupid like they always used to?" "They won't, because you'll have all these awesome professors and counselors and new friends that'll have your back." "And all your old friends will have your back, too." "Like me." "Are you really my friend?" "Always." "Come here." "(sighs)" "At first, I was just hurt and angry and embarrassed, because he turned out to be exactly what everyone said he was."

"You know, your first time is something that you can never get back, honey." "You need to hold out for a good guy this time." "You know, not just one you have feelings for, but someone you can trust." "You know?" "Mmm." "Okay, Sam Evans, this is Barbara Brownfield." "She's our amazing photographer at Funny Girl." "This is Sam Evans, my insanely handsome soon-to-be-supermodel friend." "I'm not gonna lie." "I'm really, really, really nervous." "Uh," "I've been pitting out all my T-shirts."

"You don't think I've contacted each and every school and quizzed them endlessly about their programs?" "Then why aren't you helping her?" "Because she's not ready." "Or maybe you're not ready." "I know you love Becky like a daughter, and you want to protect her, and I get it, because of everything you've been through." "But you have to let her go." "There's a really good program for students with Down syndrome at the University of Cincinnati, and I'm gonna take her there for a tour." "Her parents already gave me permission."

"It's a thank you for allowing me and Sam to stay here." " Hey, you guys, I have some bread here if you want." " No can do." "No, right now I'm just on this Mentos and flavored air diet." "Sam, that's ridiculous." "You don't need to lose ten pounds." "Yeah, Sam, we all agree." "You don't need to be prison-camp skinny to be a model." " I think you should find another agency." " No," "House of Bichette is, like, the best agency in town." "You know what I think?" "I think that this argument would be best made in a song." "Yes." "SANTANA:" "Oh, no." "No, no, no, no, no." "Do you see this?" "This is what's going to happen from every argument or discussion or meal from now on." "It's gonna end in a freaking sing-along." "It's bad enough we need to be singing waiters, okay?" "I can't have this in my home." "I need my peaceful place." "You don't have to sing, Santana.

"That's it?" "Don't let the bed bugs bite?" "You've been sitting out there all day long with little dream bubbles floating over your head and not once have you come in here to tell me how your trip to college went." "I don't want to hurt your feelings, Coach." "I don't have any feelings, Becky." "It was okay, I guess." "I don't have to take math." "Someone takes notes for me." "I can learn photography." "Well, that sounds better than okay to me." "To tell you the truth, it was awesome." "(clicks tongue) Are you sure you're ready for this, honey?" "I never thought to say this." "I've outgrown these... high school bitches." "Mmm." "You're not sad, are you, Coach?" "I'm sad to be losing the best damn secretary since the pre-collagen injected Melanie Griffith in Working Girl." "(sighs)" "But I'm more proud than I am sad." "Think I can help you write your application essay?" "Sure, Coach." "Let's see what you got there." "(sighs)" "Okay, well, you can't say that." "And you can't say that." "I can't say "crap" or "douche"?" "Even if you're talking about Graydon Carter." "(school bell rings) (clears throat)" "Check your Instagram." "O... kay." "(chuckles)" "When did you do all that?" "Uh, last night." "After I dropped you off." "I kind of couldn't stop thinking about you." "Oh..." "Look, I don't want to freak you out and move too fast or anything, but I'd love to do it again." "Like, maybe tonight?" "So, you guys are, like, really a thing now?" "Yeah?" "It's, uh, none of your business anymore." "Cool." "Well, congratulations." "Duty calls." "Okay, if I'm going to be honest here, just because we go out once doesn't mean that we're... going out." "Oh." "I still just need time for me." "Sure." "Are we done, Coach?" "Oh, not quite yet, Becky." "We're gonna drench this whole thing in glitter and hoist three dozen rainbow flags." "Got it, Coach." "Go Bearcats!" "Go Bearcats." "So you finally came around." "What made you see the light?" "Well, Butt Chin, in the words of Civil Rights leader." "Genghis Khan, everyone deserves a shot at their dreams, and I suppose that includes your hopelessly misguided teen hobgoblins." "Now, don't forget to remind them about the myriad of show business legends born and bred right here in Lima." "And that would be a total of one," "Ms. Phyllis Diller." "You know, in a few decades, when the New Directions are all on unemployment and sexually pleasing some horny old casting assistant just so they can be extras on season 33 of The Bachelorette, they'll look back on this time and remember you fondly." "TINA:" "That's not true, Sue Sylvester!" "One day, we're gonna be big, big stars." "SUE:" "Well, of course you are, my dear." "Isn't that right, William?" "Blam!" "They're back!"

"SAM:" "Fact:" "Blaine thought he wanted to be a doctor for a minute and then Kurt talked him out of it and then he went to NYADA and he crushed his NYADA audition." "Sam, that was my news." "Oh, and, uh, Mr. Shue, did you know that Billy Joel never went to college?" "Fact: he didn't, and I think you forgot to tell us about that." "So I'm gonna skip college, too," " and become a male model." " Impossible." "You're too fat." "No, I'm not." "And I don't care what you or Ms. Bichette or anyone says." "I like me just the way I am, and I'm not gonna" " change for anyone." " Well, that is just the screw-you spirit employers love." "Honest to God, I cannot imagine what goes on in your lumpish, sexually ambiguous heads." "'Cause they're nuts." "Every one of them is crazy!" "Becky, you may be right." " We may be crazy."
