Wheels
"Why exactly are they all in wheelchairs?"
Dave looks up from the book he was reading at lunch when Azimio and some of his teammates sit down at his table. Ever since the Operation: Show the Glee Losers that they suck week, the truce between the hockey and football team turned into some kind of cautious friendship.
Of course even before that Dave and Azimio sometimes ate together, but now they can do it without their teammates judging. Especially since they really like having some new people to hang around with. Not that they would admit it, of course.
"Who's in wheelchairs?" Scott Cooper asks looking around the cafeteria. McKinley isn't known to be very welcome to disabled students.
"The Glosers!" At the confused expression on the face of them Azimio elaborates on the name. "The Glee Losers. Glosers! Yeah, maybe not the best name. I'm gonna think of another one."
It's Anthony Rashad who has an answer. "Mike told me that Schuester makes them spend time in a wheelchair. Some thing for showing Abrams their support or something."
"Is that even legal?" Dave frowns.
He's not sure, but he doesn't think that a teacher can force students to spend time in a wheelchair. A teacher's power usually doesn't go as far as restraining the students life. Of course there is Coach Sylvester with all her crazy rules to keep the Cheerios in line. However no one is quite sure if the stories about the Cheerio's are true or just stories that Sylvester made up.
Suddenly there is laughter coming from the food counter. First it's not clear what caused it, but then they see Berry wheeling towards the exit with a sad and embarrassed expression. Seems like she is covered with what was intended to be her lunch.
It's not common at McKinley to throw food at people. So it's safe to assume that her appearance is due to the fact that she couldn't navigate the wheelchair and the tray at the same time.
There isn't much time to think more about Schuester's stupid teaching ideas, when Quinn, formally known as Head Cheerleader Quinn wheels into the cafeteria. It's so weird to see her out of her uniform, but it's even weirder that instead of her boyfriend Hudson it is always Puck who seems to be around her.
It's a long shot, but Dave is sure there are a lot of people questioning the paternity of the baby. Puck confronting her in a hallway yelling at her and Quinn's adamant and repetitive affirmation that Finn is the father isn't helping to end the rumors.
"Look out, asshole!" And of course there is Puck yelling at people in the cafeteria for bumping into Quinn's wheelchair.
