"Kurt and blaine are still broken up," "And kurt's not really dating," "But blaine definitely is dating," "And the guy he's dating is karofsky," "So, like, ouch." "I'm hoping we can be friends." "(wry laugh):" "Oh, sounds like fun." "And that's what you missed on glee." "I mean, who would have thought that after all these years," "You and i would be friends?" "Sue:" "Now that i've achieved my goal" "Of absolute power at this school," "I figured, what could be the harm" "In inviting will schuester to a polite," "Civil luncheon to bury the hatchet once and for all."

"Sue:" "He surrendered the glee club" "And fled to another school, after all," "Which means will schuester is no longer my mortal enemy." "I parked in my old spot..." "(chuckles)" "Those little scrape marks on the asphalt." "Ah, remember that old muffler?" "Sue:" "Sure, the sound of will's voice is like listening" "To brian boitano figure skate across a chalkboard" "While rubbing together the styrofoam" "His tom of finland ball gag came packaged in." "I bought danny this little, uh, toy piano," "And, uh, i sing "don't stop believing" to him" "Every night before he goes to bed." "Clearly, he has some sort of disorder" "That gives him the emotional depth" "Of a 12-year-old girl." "Maybe that's why" "He doesn't have any adult friends." "Oh, will schuester, you poor, maudlin imbecile," "I don't hate you." "Anything that ever really matters in life..." "I learned in that glee club." "I pity you." "Oh, yikes, look at the time." "It's been really great talking to you, sue." "Um..." "I got to go." "And i thank you." "(sighs)" "(dramatic musical stinger)" "That son of a whore." "How dare he insult me like this." "What kind of a psychopath refuses to dispose" "Of an unused plastic lunch fork" "And just leave it sitting there?" "I will not clean up after you." "Who do you think i am, your maid?" "This is an outrage, and it will not stand." "Will schuester, you have crossed me for the last time." "You know, becky, i was thinking about retiring." "What?" "!" "I got a sweet deal on some marshland" "Down in southern iraq." "(sighs) but now i realize i can't rest" "Until i tie up some loose ends." "What is this place, coach?" "This is where i store my hatred, becky..." "And where i'll prepare my final act of revenge." "I call it my "hurt locker."" "Sue:" "Some people would find multiple vendettas exhausting." "But for sue sylvester," "It's pure exhilaration." "Will schuester," "I will annihilate you once and for all." "Then onto his self-obsessed protégé, rachel berry." "I'm going to break her heart."

"Why?" "!" "They seemed to be doing so well, and..." "Then suddenly it's over?" "I hereby pledge to do whatever it takes" "To get them back together" "And achieve my ultimate goal" "To be flower girl at their fabulous gay wedding." "Just hang on, porcelain." "Help is on the way." "(bell rings) oh, porcelain," "My sweet, shrill," "Fragile gelfling, i want to help you achieve" "Your life's true purpose." "I want to help you get blaine back." "Oh, that karofsky character" "Is a grade-a no-goodnik;" "he's a heartless bully." "Since when have you cared about me and blaine?" "Since, like, forever." "You see, you and blaine are blouses." "What are blouses?" "A blouse" "Is a breezy, femmy top." "It's a term i coined for my favorite type of gay." "You always know where you stand with a blouse." "And they can't sneak up on you," "Because for miles, you can hear their gentle swish," "Swish, swish on the summer wind." "Uh, thank you, i-i guess," "But i-i do not want to get back together with blaine." "Listen to you." "That's not the porcelain i know." "Now you better get to the auditorium." "The teams have arrived" "To rehearse on stage for the invitational." "What invitational?" "The one i organized" "To destroy the glee club once and for all." "I said that out loud, didn't i?" "I should have said that in voice-over." "(percussion playing, indistinct chatter)" "Sue really blindsided us with this invitational." "So how does it feel to be back, but on the visiting team?" "Uh, i'm just glad it's in such a low-stress environment." "I mean, it's basically an organized practice." "That's the thing." "It isn't for my kids." "Do you remember our first week of glee club," "When you took us to carmel to see vocal adrenaline" "And they were as great as your team is probably gonna be?" "(chuckles):" "How could i forget?" "I thought half of you were gonna quit afterwards." "Yeah, well, the reason why we didn't was because we were so committed" "To what you were doing." "Yeah." "My kids aren't there yet." "They haven't bonded." "They don't realize how important what it is they're doing." "If they see you guys killing these numbers" "You've had all summer to perfect, well," "Then they're gonna lose any sliver of hope they have," "And the glee club'll be dead here." "Are you asking me to throw the invitational?" "Rachel:" "Look.." "I-i'm not asking you" "To blow a competition-- you said it yourself," "It's not that big of a deal." "Look, i know that you're" "A teacher at carmel now, but this is your home" "Don't you want to protect your home?" "Will (over radio):" "I'll think about it, rachel." "I really would do anything for you, rachel, you know that." "But it's not about that anymore." "I don't think you understand" "The kind of pressure i'm under now." "The administration really cares about v.A. Being the best," "And so do the kids." "What is your long-term plan here?" "I mean, you can't go to sectionals with just four kids." "I just need more time." "And i'm not gonna get that" "If you crush all of their hopes at this invitational." "Please, mr." "Shue." "Look, this place changed your life." "You're reminded of that every night that you go home" "To your wife and your beautiful baby." "Just..." "Consider paying it back" "For everything it's done for you." "(sighs)" "All right." "Change of plan." "Everyone gather round." "We're gonna toss out the numbers we've been working on," "And we're calling an audible, okay?" "Brand-new songs." "I will give them to you in a half an hour." "What?" "That's insane." "It's called thinking on your feet, improvisation." "It's gonna help us work better as a team." "(students scream, clamor)" "(girl screams)" "Good dragon." "Your khaleesi loves you." "Oh, hey, sue." "What's up?" "Sam, i have a question for you." "How susceptible to suggestion are you?" "Uh..." "I-i don't know." "What do you think?" "Well, i think you're very susceptible to suggestion." "Oh, my god, i think you're right." "Are you familiar with the film" "The manchurian candidate?" "I don't know." "Do you think i am?" "Never mind." "You're getting" "Very sleepy." "Oh, my god, i'm so tired." "When i snap my fingers," "You'll be totally hypnotized." "Oh, my god, i'm totally hypnotized." "I'm going to say a series of words." "Piano." "Flat-bed truck." "Let's do a song." "Whoa." "When next" "You hear these words," "You will be overwhelmed with love" "For one rachel berry." "Oh, my god, she's so hot." "You will kiss her, and the instant you do," "You will wake up and will not remember anything." "Oh, hey, sue." "What's up?" "(quietly):" "Outstanding." "(sighs, mumbles)" "(babbling)" "Okay, so, let's go through the rules." "We decided there's no judges," "So this is really about bragging rights." "But still, my guys are taking this very, very seriously," "So i just want to make sure that the order is" "Picked fairly-- and by fairly, i mean that we're gonna go second." "Um, by the way, how is" "The filling up of your roster going?" "Is that going okay?" "It's an invitational." "We don't have to follow the strict "show choir" rules." "Has it occurred to either of you that this could be" "A really awful idea" "For your team?" "We just want to give them" "A sense of what to expect at sectionals, and..." "You know, we were also just hoping that" "Maybe you and mr." "Schuester would take it easy on us." "Oh, no way." "No, no, no." "Absolutely not." "No one's going easy on anybody." "Nope." "The warblers are being rebuilt," "Just like the new directions!" "I'm sorry, but my allegiance is with them," "(phone buzzing) and if that at all seems scary" "To you guys, then you should probably drop out." "Oh, my god!" "It's dave." "There's an intruder in our apartment." "Intruder?" "Dave, what is going on?" "Karofsky:" "In there!" "In the bedroom!" "I thought i was gonna die!" "Blaine:" "What?" "No!" "Don't go in there!" "You're gonna get killed!" "Oh, my god." "Oh, my god!" "Is that a real, live bear cub?" "Blaine:" "Uh, why is there a bear in here?" "Karofsky:" "Why is there a bear in here?" "!" "I think i have a pretty good idea." "You know, you just..." "You can't get" "Real italian food like this in new york." "Mm-mm." "Mm, i'm actually having trouble, like, adjusting" "To the lima pace-- i'm used to new york." "Everything's so fast-paced there." "And i was thinking, the problem with..." "Moving back home" "Is that, you know, you..." "You fall back into old habits." "Mm-hmm." "It's up to us now to keep from going stale." "I mean, what do you do with your free time?" "Mm..." "Besides cry?" "(voice breaks):" "She's so talented." "I watch patti lupone's youngarts masterclass." "Up." "Make it harder." "(sobbing)" "Why?" "What do you do?" "I blow glass." "Wait, what, really?" "My point is, we need to become proactive" "About what our outside interests are." "Yeah." "I mean, what is something you always wanted to do?" "I don't know." "I mean, i've always wanted to learn" "How to play the piano." "(distorted, echoing):" "That's mine, too." "Uh, let's do it." "I mean, i'll get blaine to teach us." "He owes me for all the times i shaved his back" "In new york." "We'll do it together." "And we can keep on each other's case" "To practice all the time-- it'll be great." "Okay." "Thanks, sam." "You know..." "I know that this" "Isn't a date or anything, but..." "I just realized i haven't spent time with a guy alone in a long time, and..." "It feels good to do it with someone i feel so safe with." "Yeah." "I, uh, i haven't been out with anybody since, um..." "Mercedes and i broke up." "Even though this isn't a date." "Wait, wait, i'm very confused." "I had it on good authority" "That dave karofsky was attracted to bears." "Except in this case, a "bear" refers to a burly, gay man," "Not an actual bear." "That would be really dangerous and completely insane." "Well, my tenure at this school has expanded my horizons" "On what is or isn't considered insane." "Will schuester once submerged" "A lucite platform into the mckinley swimming pool" "So he could literally walk on water" "To propose to his girlfriend." "Now, that's pretty insane." "This just has to stop." "I don't want to get back together" "With blaine." "I've moved on." "I met someone online-- his name is walter." "Oh, porcelain, oh, no, no, no, no." "You will not come out of this alive." "This person is obviously a cannibal." "I mean, look at you." "You are exceptionally well marbled." "If i were on a deserted island with everybody i knew," "I would absolutely eat you first." "It doesn't even have to be a deserted island." "There could be any number of casual dining establishments," "And i would still opt to eat you" "A mouthwatering, delicious, corn-fed porcelain rump roast." "Okay, i'm leaving." "You just have to stop, okay?" "I'm serious." "But what about your fabulous, over-the-top gay wedding?" "!" "I already told becky she could be the celebrant!" "When else am i ever gonna get to provincetown?" "!" "(playing beethoven's symphony no. 5)" "(music ends)" "Wow, that's intimidating." "Blaine, thank you so much" "For taking time out of your extremely busy schedule to teach us." "Yeah, you know, we were gonna ask brad the piano player" "But then i found this scrapbook that he keeps of women's feet." "Okay." "Anyway, um," "Have a seat-- but don't just sit any which way," "Make sure you sit up straight." "Don't slouch." "Oh." "Elbows always 90 degrees away from the piano." "Just so you know, i'm not really a beginner." "My dads put me in lessons when i was four years old," "And i just got bored, so i quit." "Huh." "That's so unlike you." "Um, i've made this cute little chart" "Above the keys to help you guys out." "Okay, good." "So go ahead and find middle c for me." "Got it." "Excellent." "Um, so i want you to think of middle c, also known as c4," "As kind of a quaint little town between bass clef land" "And treble clef land." "So, it's kind of easy." "No, no, no, i'm sorry." "Wait." "Can you just, like, slow down?" "(mechanical whirring, alarm horn blaring)" "God, what time is it?" "Whew, i fell asleep hours ago" "When you were yammering on about good posture and..." "A quaint little town." "Um, what are you doing up there?" "I'm just loosening some bolts." "You have no business being in here." "Funny, that's exactly what i was gonna say to you." "I thought i was rid of you two years ago." "Then you came limping back to lima" "With your suitcase full of glitter and tears." "All right, i think we should probably reschedule this." "No." "That is an excellent idea." "Wouldn't you say so, sam?" "Awesome idea." "Later, buddy." "Uh..." "Go." "Get out of here." "Go on." "(groans)" "(snaps fingers)" "Hey, rachel, uh, wait up."

"(laughter) he was kissing a hooker." "Hey, guys." "Can i just talk to your coach for a second?" "Okay, so i'm just gonna say this," "Because i haven't been able to think about anything else," "And i got, like, zero sleep last night, but..." "Our kiss?" "What kiss?" ""what kiss?"" "Exactly, right, we're both creative people," "And sometimes creative people" "Create bonds with their fellow actors," "And sometimes those bonds create gestures that don't" "Necessarily mean the same thing in the real world" "As they would in show business." "Anyways, um, i just..." "I've really liked hanging out with you, sam," "And i-i wanted to ask you this yesterday," "But you sort of left, like, really fast," "But, um, do you want to get a coffee with me sometime?" "Oh, are you," "Are you asking me, like, out on a date?" "Yeah." "Rachel, uh," "That's super sweet, but i-i can't." "And it's not because of your teeny-tiny booty." "I actually like teeny-tiny booties." "It's..." "I'm kind of still in love with mercedes." "Oh." "Sorry." "Yeah." "Oh, hey, sue." "What's up?" "Uh, what-what are you doing?" "And... (distorted):" "You're hypnotized again." "Oh, my god, i'm hypnotized." "That was so fast." "You've done well, my dark apprentice." "Phase two" "Of my sinister plan will now commence." "Triskaidekaphobia." "Ambrosia salad." "Goodluck jonathan." "Wait, i'm confused." "Do those words hypnotize me or dehypnotize me?" "Neither, they're just words i like." "Okay." "As you continue" "To gaslight rachel berry," "Phase two will incorporate the tormenting of will schuester." "You will start by stealing" "His utility bills" "From the mailbox in front of his condo." "Awesome." "(sniffs)" "Hi, i-i'm still waiting for someone," "But in the meantime," "I would love a bottle of sparkling water." "Kurt?" "I'm walter." "It's good to finally meet you." "Oh, hi!" "I'd know you anywhere." "You look just like your photo." "Yeah, and your photo" "Definitely looks like you a-a-a-at some point in time." "This is fun." "How old are you, exactly?" "(chuckles)" "Well, since you're asking," "I'm... 50... (muttering) years old." "No, but true story." "Last week, i bought a six-pack of beer at the grocery store," "And the clerk asked me for my i.D." "I don't know" "Is she thought i was underage" "Or an undocumented worker, but the point is," "I still feel like" "I'm 30," "Which is why i still use that photo in my profile." "Yeah." "Have to be honest," "I-i, i just thought it was an instagram filter." "You're on instagram?" "Me, too!" "Yeah." "My handle is hotcupowalter." "That's what my wife used to call me." "I was married for 33 years." "I got a couple kids who're..." "About your age." "Ooh, no kidding, huh?" "Yeah." "Yeah, i didn't come out of the closet until last year." "You know, i thought i never was gonna come out." "Look, w-walter," "Y-you seem like a very nice man," "But it's just that," "Well, when talked on the phone," "You never mentioned that you were in your 50s," "Or that-that you were married with-with kids." "But that's because we got so busy chatting" "About how golden girls is the greatest sitcom" "Of all time." "Look, you're absolutely right." "I should've been more honest, and i wasn't." "But it's not because i'm deluded" "Or some sort of a psycho," "It's just that..." "I was really enjoying getting to know you." "I didn't want to say something that would scare you off." "Well..." "I can see that this is not a good fit." "So, i'm not gonna waste any more of your time." "I'm really sorry." "Wait, no, i'm sorry." "I-i don't mean to be rude." "It's just that this is just," "You know, a lot to take in." "Well, how about this?" "What if you and i just started out as friends?" "No expectations whatsoever." "We take it really slow," "And if either one of us gets uncomfortable," "We call it a day." "(sighs)" "I-i like the sound of that." "(chuckles)" "¶ hey, well, so... ¶" "Yes." "Sam, buddy, hey." "What... (sighs)" "I-i think that's my mail." "Oh, yeah, i know, rachel asked me to steal it." "The bills, mostly." "She said that, you know, if you stopped paying them," "That maybe you would get all distracted with, like, collection agencies" "And stop focusing on work," "Which would give her an advantage on vocal adrenaline." "Wait, seriously?" "Oh, yeah." "You know rachel, she'll do anything to win." "I-i can't believe that she would do that." "We're friends." "She had no problem reminding of that" "When she asked me to throw the invitational." "Between you and me, rachel's kind of pissed at you." "Yeah, she thinks that" "Your suspiciously constant positivity" "And encouragement is what clouded" "Her judgment to do her tv show," "And, um, she also blames you" "For that time she broke her nose," ""run joey run" and boko haram." "Which i don't know what the last one is." "I am so naive." "She's been playing me this whole time." "Well, hey, look, if you run into her," "Could you please just do me a favor and tell her" "That i stole your bills," "Because she asked me to come at night," "And then there's this whole a.M./p.M. Thing..." "Get out of here." "Get out of here!" "(sighs)" "Male student (over p.A.):" "Vocal adrenaline, please report backstage." "Two minutes to showtime." "Will:" "All right, guys, how we feeling?" "You all ready?" "Yeah, i bet" "You're super stoked." "I am stoked." "I've never been more stoked or more serious." "You guys should be serious, too." "Don't touch me." "I want you to get fired up" "For what's coming, all right?" "Okay, yes, mckinley alumni" "Tried to tear at my loyalties, and i almost let them." "But i will never let you down, okay?" "Vocal adrenaline has always been the team to topple," "And today is no different, all right?" "So i want you to own this stage and dominate." "Are you bipolar?" "Okay, show circle." "That means..." "Okay." "Um..." "It's kind of my thing." "We all just get in there and just..." "Boy:" "We don't like you." "All right," "Amazing!" "You guys will learn that later." "Okay, have a good show." "Just-just go out there and..." "And-and win." "Please direct your blank stares to the curtain behind me."
