~In the hotel room at Nationals in LA~ Finn is sitting on top of a crate and Mister Shuester walks over to him. "Why are you so down? I mean Second place isn't that bad...remember your Junior year we got 12th place."He says nudging him. Finn nods
"Yeah because I kissed Rachel in front of a full auditorium stupid decision on my part."Finn says
"You kissed her because you were so into your emotions, and you felt every word you sang...to a song you wrote come on Finn."Mr. Shuester says Finn shakes his head and sees the younger kids of The New Directions hugging each other especially Tina Blaine Sam and Artie this was their last Nationals ever.
"I promised them I would lead them to victory like I did last year, I fell short...again Im sorry..I dont even know how to console them..and I want to be a teacher?."Finn says
"You're going to become an amazing Teacher Finn...look at the group of people...You managed to bring in Ryder who is an amazing addition to this group, you convinced Blaine to stay in McKinley after he wanted to transfer back to Dalton...you brought back Sam last year..you made Tina less of a Drama Diva, you let Artie become more comfortable in his own skin...and you didn't let Marley or Unique give up on their dreams. Being a teacher isn't always about winning it's about making a difference and you did that with them."He says Finn nods and slightly smiles then frowns again.
"You know this means we have to face the wrath of Principal Sue."Finn says
"Im not worried about her at all..actually..even she can't ruin my amazing joyous mood... I wanted to tell you something.."Will smiles brightly Finn looks at him and listens.
"The reason Emma didn't come with us is because she's taking care of a baby."Will smiles Finn gives him a confused look.
"Why would Emma need to baby sit?"Finn asked Will shakes his head "No Finn Emma is carrying my child she's pregnant Im finally going to become a father..to a real baby."He says Finn smiles and chuckles then pulls Will into a hug
"Congrats Mr. Shue!"Finn says
While walking around in the hotel Finn stops by the pool and sees Tina sitting down Finn walks over to her Tina smiles at him and he sits down. "You alright?"Finn asked
"We weren't that good...that's why we didn't win..."Tina says Finn shakes his head "You guys were incredible you did your best and you gave it your all that should have been more than enough to win but it wasn't..sometimes winning isn't always the big prize in the end."Finn says Tina looks down and sighs.
"I've been such a big Fame Diva...I was trying to fill in Rachel Berry's shoes and I couldn't do that because Im not special..Im just the token Asian in the group."Tina says
"You're very special Tina. Come on you're in the Drama club, you're the co captain of the glee club you're a Straight A student..and you have a big heart with big dreams you just have to be you...you know the Tina that everyone loves and who loves everyone..you're not snobby."Finn says
"You think it's too late to change my attitude?"Tina asked
"It's never too late for that."Finn chuckles Tina smiles and she hugs him "Thank you Finn I'm glad we're friends."She says
"Good friends...you still look upset whats up?"Finn asked Tina sighs and takes out an envelope Finn looks at it and raises his eyebrows.
"Brown University?"Finn asked
"This is ticket to get out of Lima...do you think I go in?"She asked
"Only one way to find out right..."Finn says Tina sighs and shakes her head "I can't open it just yet I want to be with my Mom and Dad when I know...and then after can I tell you?"Tina smiles
"I'l be waiting to hear the news."Finn says
~Back at McKinley~ Will is carrying the trophy to the display case and he sees Workers measuring the length of the entire room
"Whoa whats going on here?"Will asked
"We're measuring to see how many computers will fit in here excuse us."The man in the hard hat says Will makes his way to Sue's office and sees Sue on her computer playing a game that was based on the Cherrios. Will slams the door and looks at her with his hands on his hips.
"William I knew I would see you soon."She says taking off her glasses
"They're putting computers in the Choir room? We can't share that space Sue."Will says
"I don't intend on having you share the space...Will you lost at Nationals...and budget cuts are growing thinner and thinner...As Principal I need to make the right decisions...funding needs to be made smart around here...Im pulling the plug on Glee Club...this will be your last year having it."She says
"What about the Auditorium and...the instruments...Sue.."Will says
"You did good with that Glee club..you have a First place trophy from last year we can put that in the hallway along with your other lesser achievement trophies but...Glee club is over..I'll let you be the one to break it to them."Sue says
"I can't believe it...How do I tell the kids...how do I tell Finn.."Will says
"Finn has always been a leader...he'll lead these good into another path...you've done amazing things with Him William. You should be proud."Sue says
Will walks into the choir room and sees all of the members confused as to why everything was being packed away and why construction workers were in the room.
"Whats going on here.."Artie asked
"Are they rewaxing the floor again? Because last week I totally saw up Kitty's skirt they need to do the whole school."Sam laughs
"Guys...uhm..because of budget cuts...Glee club is not being renewed for the next year...or maybe ever.."Will says Finn looks at Will shocked then he looks over at Tina who grasps his arm in shock.
"We can't just let them do this we gotta fight."Jake says
"Sue's probably already rented out the space for whatever else the school needs right."Marley says
"They're turning this room into a computer lap putting the trophies in the display case..and that'll be it...next week will be our last lesson before graduation...we've had a long week in LA and Nationals we can just cancel rehearsal alright...see you guys tomorrow."Will says and leaves the choir room. Finn watches him leave and then scratches his head.
"I can't believe it...It's Over.."Unique says Everyone begins to get emotional and then they look to Finn who is not standing in front of them with his hands in his pockets speechless.
"Finn...what do we do now..I mean we have to do something.."Ryder says Finn gets an idea and then looks at Blaine Tina Artie and Sam. He smiles and signals the four of them to come up and they make a small circle.
"If we're going to go out we might as well go out with a big bang right."Finn smiles
"What do you have in mind?"Sam asked
"I need you guys to call in a few people."Finn says Tina and Blaine smile at each other and they all nod.
~The next day~
Will walks into the Choir room sighing he had to prepare for this weeks lesson...his 100th lesson with the glee club and it would be his final one ever..yet he had nothing he was just going to let Finn do the lesson Graduation they could do another good bye tribute right...for good..those words just broke his heart. He couldn't say goodbye to these kids...he couldn't say good bye to the glee club. Once Will entered the room he was shocked to see every seat in the choir room occupied...there was the combination of The Original New Direction and the Current he looked at everyone so confused they all smiled at him with welcoming smiles.
"What in the world is going on here."Will says
"Well We're waiting for glee club to start Mr. Shue except you're not the teacher today."Blaine smiles
"But I had a whole lesson plan set up."Will says
"Come on we all know you didn't have anything planned...with Sue cutting off the glee club we all figured it'd be nice to have all members of New Direction here...new and old."Artie laughs.
"This time this tribute is to you. We're going to show you what you've taught us over the years. How this room and the people in it changed us."Tina says
Will nods and smiles at his former students "Okay okay I approve Im still confused though because... if I cant teach this week who will?"Will smiles
"I Will."Finn says walking into the choir room with his brown button up shirt black tie and slacks on all of his friends hoot and holler at him as he makes his way into the room and towards the piano Finn smiles at his old friends places his book bag on the piano. Mike and Puck were banging on the chair yelling out "SEXY ASS" Quinn Mercedes and Brittany were and fake squealing.
"You're going to teach this week?..Alright Mr. Hudson show us what you got."Will smiles Finn chuckles and takes out his marker then makes his way to the and begins to write the words. "REUNION" Finn faces the choir room and smiles capping his word.
"Brittany whats that word on the board."Finn smiles Brittany "Reunion meaning ...coming together...well..almost everyone."She says
"Are we late for class?"Kurt smiles Blaine smiles and runs over to him hugging him tightly then Santana and Rachel follow him inside
"Brittany.."Santana says Brittany smiles and waves at her Rachel makes her way towards Mercedes and hugs her then turns her head to see Finn leaning on the piano and the 3 other former members returned.
"Just in time for the lesson Mr. Hudson was teaching."Quinn laughs Rachel looks over at him and Finn smiles as Kurt walks over to him and hugs his brother.
"Good to see you little brother."Finn says
"I missed you, you big lug now whats the lesson for this week."Kurt says as he takes his seat. Finn points to the board and smiles at everyone "This week is about all of us coming together one final time and remembering how much this room this club and everything that happened in here means to us..instead of one lesson this week..I'll put up a different word for the next 5 days...and in those five days you can express everything you've ever wanted to say to these people...whether you still have a grudge or...secret feelings for someone or just hate someone's guts and never had the balls to say so. Now is the time to say everything. Get everything out. Today our word is Reunion...we're all here together...and we're here to Say Thank you To Mister Shuester."Finn smiles
"I love this lesson plan."Mercedes says Finn smiles and nods at her
"And I'd love to go first if I may Finn."She says Finn moves over and sits on the stool in front of the piano "Floor's all yours Ms. Jones."Finn says
"Actually I need your help...you and I never got to sing a duet."Mercedes says Finn looks at her confused as she hands him a song sheet he chuckles and nods.
(Mercedes)
Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
(Finn)
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'Cause I've seen the dark side too
(Mercedes)
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothin' you confess, could make me love you less
(Both)
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
(Finn)
So, if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
(Mercedes)
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
(Finn)
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'Cause even if you're wrong
(Mercedes)
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
And when, when the night falls on you, baby
You're feelin' all alone
You won't be on your own
(Finn looks over and sees Rachel smiling at him he avoids her gaze and pats Mike on the shoulder then walks over to Quinn he smiles at her and Brittany then Santana sticks her tongue at him Puck gets up and hugs Finn tightly)
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
(Mercedes sings to Kurt and Blaine then squeezes Artie's cheeks)
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Yeah
(Finn and Mercedes smile and make their way back to the front and Mercedes lays her head on Finn's shoulder he smiles down at her as they reach the end of the song)
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
No, no, no, no, no
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Everyone claps as they stand Finn and Mercedes high five and Will looks at them both "Perfect way to start the lesson Mr. Hudson."Will says.
During the rehearsal break Finn was saying his hello's to everyone as they all caught up he then made his way to the piano to get his book bag then Rachel got up from her seat and walked over to him.
"Hi."She says Finn nods at her "Welcome back. Fanny Brice."Finn says
"It's weird being back here with everyone..high school seems so long ago."Rachel says
"Almost a year it's crazy. So much has changed since then high school seems like another life time ago."Finn says
"Yeah everything changed...people moved..people drifted apart..we drifted apart.."Rachel says whispering the last words.
"A lot a change in a year who knew."Finn says
"Since Im here for the next week or two I was wondering if you and I could hang out...you know reconnect."Rachel says
"Maybe you know I've got things here with the lesson plan and I have finals at school."Finn says
"Finn we really should talk.."Rachel says
"I don't really see what we need to say to each other Rach. You're here for the Glee club and it means a lot that you took the time to come down here since you're so busy...I mean you were too busy to call me back right.."Finn says
"Finn I didn't mean to put you on the back burner things were just hectic with school and work and the show..."Rachel says
"Nothing personal I get it...you've moved on you made that clear and hey I have too...Im not worrying about US anymore Im focused on School and getting my teaching degree."Finn says
"I don't like that we're strangers now Finn.."Rachel says
"I didn't ask for it to be that way but it is now...We didn't try to save our friendship maybe we were never friends to begin with."Finn says
"How can you say that.."Rachel says shocked before Finn can answer The Unholy Trinity walks over to him and they all smile.
"Mr. Hudson. You looking really good in that tie...can I get some tutoring?"Santana laughs Finn laughs as they all circle him and pull him into a group hug..
"The Unholy Trinity...my favorite three for coming it means the world that you did..Especially you Brit MIT must be amazing for you." Finn says
"I feel so smart there Finn! Everyone loves Lord Tubbingtons! He misses you by the way!"Brittany smiles Finn chuckles and looks at Quinn who wraps her arms arund his neck.
"Welcome back Fabray."Finn says Quinn smiles "I think you as a teacher is a perfect fit Finn you finally found your calling."She says Finn pulls her into an hug and the four of them begin chatting away.
Rachel closes her eyes and then Puck walks over to her.
"I see you still have that look."Puck says Rachel looks at Puck confused
"What look?"She says
"That look of longing...and wanting to make Finn see that he's wrong that you two aren't as different as he thinks ..I know that look because I have the same one for Quinn."Puck says
"Seeing him again here..just made me realize he's the only thing Im missing right now in my life..and I just miss him so much.."Rachel says
"You've got less than a week to get Finn to fall in love with you again than Rach who knows maybe one of his lesson plans for the day is Rekindle...that would make things easier."Puck says Rachel laughs and looks over at Finn who is laughing and enjoying the company with his friends.
"Everything's so different now Noah..."Rachel says
"I know Finn still loves you Rachel...you just have to remind him you two are meant for each other. You're Rachel Berry you always get what you want. Make it happen."Puck says nudging her
