Episode Plot: With Sectionals only 1 week away, The Talented New Yorkers practice hard to win, and a guest mentor comes by to help them.
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, and I never will.
Note: The season finale is one episode away! Time has come by so fast. I've already thought of the episode names for the beginning of Season 2:
1: The Living Year of Madonna
2: A Wonderful Christmas
That's all I have so far. It will air 2 or 4 weeks after the finale, even though there is a Christmas episode after the season premiere. I'm so proud of improving this fanfic and renew this for a new season. I'm doing very good on this. Okay, for now enough with my talking and enjoy the 10th episode.
Rachel moves away from the whiteboard to let the others see what it says, in which it says "ONE WEEK LEFT". Everyone cheers for how far they're coming. "Sectionals is very close! Since two of you guys haven't experienced this before, I have a special mentor to help us through this." Rachel said. She points to the door, and Mercedes comes in, and surprises everyone. "Who's ready for me to get you guys prepared?" Mercedes asked. Everyone applauds to show their excitement, and Rachel smiles, proudly.
Later in the day, at a lunch table for the adults, Rachel sits down, looking anxious about Sectionals as well, in which Mercedes comes, and sits by Rachel. "How are you with Sectionals?" Mercedes asked. "I feel a little bit a mix on proud and nervous." Rachel answered. "You've done this before, Rachel. I know you can do this." Mercedes said. Rachel smiles, timidly, and gets up, until Mercedes stops her. "Maybe I can let some of the girls sing back-up with me to hit some good high notes. I think I can sing an original song that I've done before." Mercedes said. Rachel gets excited at the statement. "Oh my god, you're actually doing it?!" Rachel asked, with full enthusiasm. Mercedes nods her head, and Rachel covers her head with her hands, happily.
[Scene changes to Mercedes singing an old original song of hers, called "Hell to The No". Kitty, Jane, Madison, Alissa and Angelina sing back-up. Alissa and Angelina play some instruments (Alissa helping the main part for some of the song, the piano, and Angelina with the drums)]
[Mercedes]
Mama said get your ass out of bed
I said hell to the no
Said wash your grandma's nasty head
I said hell to the no
They tried to take away my tots
I said hell to the no
Yeah, 'cause I'm the one that calls the shots
And I say hell to the no
[Mercedes with the girls vocalizing]
Try to make me change my weave
Well I got something up my sleeve
[Mercedes]
It's a whole lot of
[Mercedes with the girls]
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
I said
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
[Mercedes]
I'm not trying to diva out
But this shows gotta stop so shout
[Mercedes with the girls]
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
[Mercedes]
Tell me I should eat my wheaties, you know what
Hell to the no (Girls: Hell to the no)
Tell me I'll come down with diabetes
Hell to the no (Girls: Hell to the no)
[Mercedes with the girls vocalizing]
Try to make me change my eats
But baby that just isn't me
[Mercedes with the girls]
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
I said
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
[Mercedes]

[Mercedes with the girls]
Woah, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hell to the no-no, no-no, no-no, no-no
[Mercedes]
Awe, hell to the no...'
The whole class applauds for Mercedes and the girls, and Rachel goes and proudly hugs Mercedes.
Madison and Spencer sit together for lunch. "So, about last week, how was the song I did last week?" Madison asked. "Very good. Thanks for asking." Spencer answered. "I want to do it again." Madison said. "I got a surprise for you as well." Spencer said. "Or do you?" Madison asked, jokingly.
"Yes, I have a surprise for you. Why wouldn't I?" Spencer asked. He kisses Madison, until Madison gets a bit worried. "What's wrong?" Spencer asked. "If we kiss, then people will think we're actually dating." Madison said. "I'm pretty sure everyone knows by now." Spencer said. Madison smiles, and Mason comes to the table. "Did i ruin the moment?" Mason asked. "No." Madison answered. "Great. I just want to know if you guys are ready for Sectionals." Mason said. "Are you trying to be a mini Rachel?" Spencer asked.
"Nope. I just wanted to ask." Mason said. "We've been through this before. I know we'll do good." Madison said. "We have a mentor." Mason said. "Not for all of us." Spencer said. Mason gets up from the table. "Thanks. I gotta go ask others." Mason said. Spencer smirks, and looks at Madison. "What should we do now?" Spencer asked. "I want us to hold hands." Madison said. Spencer accepted it, and holds Madison's hand.
[Scene changes to Madison doing a song for Spencer]
[Madison]
For you, there'll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right
To you, I'll give the world
To you, I'll never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right.
And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.
And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.
And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.
The class applauds for her, and Rachel thinks of what the week should be called. "When I was still in high school, I overheard Santana sing this, and this gave me a good idea for this week's lesson." Rachel said. She writes "Old Songs" on the board. "So, we're singing songs from the '80s to '90s?" Kitty asked.
"No. We will sing songs that have been sung during me and a lot of you guys times at McKinley." Rachel said. "But, me and Angelina never went to McKinley." Alissa said, worried. "That's why Mercedes is here to mentor." Rachel remarked. "You'll be fine." Mercedes said. "Well, let's try hard for Sectionals." Rachel said.
In the living room apartment, Madison is going through her brother's phone, and Spencer comes in. "My surprise is here!" Spencer said. Madison is excited, and Spencer pulls out a ring, and Madison looks surprised. "Spencer, we're pretending to date. You're proposing?" Madison asked. "No, this ring is a souvenir for how close we've become." Spencer said. Madison takes the ring. "If this is a souvenir, then I'll take the ring." Madison said. Spencer smiles, and shares a small kiss with Madison. Mason walks in the room, and gets a drink.
"How cold is it out there?" Madison asked. "It's November, Madison. it's very cold out there." Mason answered. "Oh my gosh, you weren't wearing a jacket?" Spencer asked. Mason nods, and as soon as Rachel comes in, Madison goes to Rachel. "I want to sing a song that fits for a week like this. It has not been sung at McKinley, but I think it fits for how Sectionals will be for me, and what it should be for all of us." Madison said. "If it's that important to you, I'll let you do it." Rachel said. Madison squeals, and looks at Mason happily.
Santana happily walks into the room, which everyone notices. "Someone's a happy person." Kitty said. "Quinn made her decision." Santana said. "What'd she say?" Blaine asked. "She said yes!" Santana said. "We hit the 13 people mark for the year!" Finn exclaimed. Everyone is excited, and Rachel comes in. "10 more days till Sectionals! Madison wanted to sing a song about how far we've come. You got the floor, Madison." Rachel said.
[The song starts, and Santana gets in her seat, with Rachel looking confused]
[Madison]
I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak,
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.
I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, ohhhh!
Oh noooo
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
Everyone applauds for Madison, and Spencer looks proud of her. "Well, let's welcome Sectionals, guys. It's the ultimate test to see if you've been improving through the lessons." Rachel said.
Brittany lets Quinn into the room, and cues her to sit down. "What is this for?" Quinn asked. "You'll see." Brittany answered. The whole glee club is on the stage. "Quinn, we've been friends ever since we joined Cheerios, and ever since then, I've never wanted to keep away from you." Santana said. She also blows a kiss at Brittany. "I'm like a younger you, and I've always wanted to be in glee club with you. You really made my dreams come true." Kitty said. "I'd usually get some statements that said I was like you from Rachel or Kitty, before I became Kitty's friend as a matter of fact." Alissa said. "You were pretty mean sometimes when you first joined glee club, and I still miss you even though." Kurt said. "Quinn, we dedicate this song for you." Rachel said.
[The songs starts, as Rachel sits by Quinn, and Brittany cries a bit, but is not crying sadly, she's crying tears of joy]
[Alissa]
I'll believe when the sky is burning
I'll believe when I see the view
I believe that I hear them say
[Jane]
David won't stop dreaming now
[Madison]
And everybody clap your hands and shout
[Kitty]
And everybody clap your hands and shout
[Alissa with The Talented New Yorkers]
Oh no, They shout
[Mason with The Talented New Yorkers]
We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
[Roderick with The Talented New Yorkers]
(Girls: To your place) To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close
We're losing time, time, time
We're losing time, time, time
We're falling to the ground
We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way
[Finn and Angelina]
Hold me close
We're falling to the ground
[Alissa cues Quinn to get on the stage, and Quinn happily gets on the stage]
[Mason]
Taxi drive the sun is rising
[Kurt]
Damn the sirens, keep on driving
[Roderick]
Flashing light, oh what a night
[Finn]
I miss her bed, I lost my head
[Blaine with The Talented New Yorkers]
And it's sunning, we're still running
For her rooftop, our last stop
Barefoot, naked, don't you let me go
[Roderick with The Talented New Yorkers]
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close
We're losing time, time, time
We're losing time, time, time
We're falling to the ground
We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way
[Angelina]
This Night Will Never End
[Kitty]
Hold me close, we're losing time
Hold me close, we're falling to the ground
Everyone including Quinn shares a group hug, and Mercedes comes and sits down, and looks proud of the group. "They're ready for Sectionals. I know it." Mercedes said. Brittany puts her arm around her friends as the screen fades to black.
