"Can you excuse us for a minute, boo?" "What?" "Just go away." "Did you ever think that that might be something I wanted to do with you?" "Look, Kurt, Finn needs a buddy right now, okay?" "At the game, he got to talking about his dad, and, you know, his mom thinks it's a really good thing for him." "Look, I promise you we will hang out as much as you want, okay?" "Just not tonight." "¶¶ All that work and what did it get me?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Why did I do it?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Scrapbooks full of me in the background ¶¶" "¶¶ Give 'em love and what does it get ya?" "¶¶" "¶¶ What does it get ya?" "¶¶" "¶¶ One quick look as each of 'em leaves you ¶¶" "¶¶ All your life and what does it get ya?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Thanks a lot and out with the garbage ¶¶" "¶¶ They take bows and you're batting' zero ¶¶" "¶¶ I had a dream ¶¶" "¶¶ I dreamed it for you, Dad ¶¶" "¶¶ It wasn't for me, Dad ¶¶" "¶¶ And if it wasn't for me ¶¶" "¶¶ Then where would you be ¶¶" "¶¶ Miss Rachel Berry?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Well, someone tell me when is it my turn?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Don't I get a dream for myself?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Starting now, it's gonna be my turn ¶¶" "¶¶ Gangway, world, get off of my runway!" "¶¶" "¶¶ Starting now I bat a thousand!" "¶¶" "¶¶ This time, boys, I'm taking the bows and... ¶¶" "¶¶ Everything's coming up Kurt!" "¶¶" "¶¶ Everything's coming up Hummel!"

"¶¶" "{song ends, one person clapping}" "That was some serious singing, kid." "That was "Rose's Turn."" "I could get into that, maybe." "What happened to the hoagies?" "Ah, blew it off." "You know, too much cholesterol." "I bet Finn was disappointed." "He understood, uh... once I told him how bent out of shape I thought you were." "Me?" "I'm fine." "Kurt, I'm dumb, but I'm not stupid." "And I have no idea what that song was about, but "fine" don't sing like you just sung." "Look maybe I got carried away doing stuff with Finn." "But I told you, this thing with you was going to be hard." "Thing with me." "You mean being gay?" "Yeah." "Being gay." "Look, I will fight to the death for your right to love whoever you want, but when you were a little baby in my arms, did I dream about taking you to baseball games and talking about girls?" "Yeah, I did." "A lot of fathers do." "I had no idea how disappointing I was." "Hey, come on, now, stop it right now." "I'm-I'm talking straight to you." "Don't go playing the victim." "You know that's not what I mean." ":" "I know." "I'm sorry." "I know you're working hard on yourself to make all this okay." "Just seeing you, the way you are with Finn, how easy it is..." "{voice breaks}:" "It breaks my heart." "Is that why you were pretending to date that daffy cheerleader?" "And dressing differently, and singing Mellencamp?" "I just want you to know that..." "I'm going to work as hard as you to make this okay." "You don't have to work at anything, Kurt." "Your job... is to be yourself, and my job is to love you, no matter what." "Okay?" "That and a majority ownership in a tire store-- that's all we got." "Okay?" "We stick to that, we're going to be great." "I missed you, Dad." "Oh, come here." "I love you." "Love you, too." "Mom..." "Finn with you?" "No, I came by myself." "Is that okay?" "Yeah." "I, um..." "I just wanted to say thank you, and for showing me that just because I'm not good at anything other than singing doesn't mean" "I'm not any good if I can't sing." "That sounded like a really bad greeting card." "No." "It was cool." "Well, anyways, I..." "I just thought I could maybe return the favor." "I thought I could give you singing lessons." "It sort of seemed like an area of interest for you." "I'll-I'll come by, like, once a week or something, and we could just see how it goes?" "I've-I've helped almost everyone in our glee club, some by brute force, but..." "So, your voice came back." "Turns out that a heroic dose of antibiotics and a mysterious blend of herbal remedies and a vow of silence is all it takes to cure tonsillitis, so..." "I'll probably have to have my tonsils taken out eventually, but, um," "I'm-I'm not scared anymore." "{laughs softly}" "Uh, so... do you want to give it a spin now?" "Sing with you?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'd be honored." "Come here." "Take my hand?" "Can you feel that?" "No." "But it's weird." "I remember what it feels like, and I can see it, so... it's like I can." "I-I, um... {clears throat}" "I thought we'd do a little classic rock today." "Finn said you might like that." "Yeah." "¶¶ Is it getting better?" "¶¶" "¶¶ Or do you feel the same?"
