EXT. PARK
Sam and Rachel are walking through the park talking and laughing amongst each other. Sam begins to look into her eyes when Justin Timberlake's Mirrors play. They continue to walk down the path as they singing looking at all the couple enjoying the day.
Sam:
Aren't you somethin' to admire?
'Cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice
You reflect in this heart of mine
If you ever feel alone and
The glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always parallel on the other side
'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass
I'll be tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back here to you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
Rachel:
Aren't you somethin', an original
'Cause it doesn't seem merely assembled
And I can't help but stare, 'cause
I see truth somewhere in your eyes
I can't ever change without you
You reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I would look at us all the time
'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass
I'll be tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
Rachel:
Yesterday is history
Sam:
Tomorrow's a mystery
Sam with Rachel:
I can see you lookin' back at me
Keep your eyes on me
Baby, keep your eyes on me
'Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now (please show me, baby)
I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me
You are, you are the love of my life [x10]
Now you're the inspiration of this precious song
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are
You are, you are the love of my life [x8]
Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You're my reflection and all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You are, you are the love of my life [x16]
The two take a seat on the park bench and hold hands. Rachel is hesitate to hold Sam's hand not wanting to accept her feeling for him, but he tightens his grip to ensure her that it's okay to have conflicting feelings.
"Sam you already know that things with Jesse is complicated. I don't want to pursue anything with you until I know things are officially done."
"Rachel, I willing to wait for you as long as it takes for you to sort out your feelings. I knew how it feels to be in love with a person, but your heart wants another. I felt that way with Mercedes for years until I fell for you," Sam glances into Rachel's eyes "I love you Rachel. I know I do and I know I want to be with you. So when you're ready I'll be waiting.
Rachel kisses Sam on his cheek and rise from the bench. She begins to walk away.

INT. CHOIR ROOM
Sam walks up to the board and begins to write:
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
"Justin Timberlake is an icon. He has moves like no others. A melodic voice and he's the reason why we will be doing a tribute to him."
"Mr. Evans although I totally agree with you, but since Halloween is tomorrow shouldn't we do something to celebrate," said Logan.
"Yes, but it's okay to move away from the normal and go out the box," Sam said, "That's why I asked Noah and Jeffrey to help me prepare a little number.
Noah and Jeffrey walks up to the front and stand beside Sam. The band begins to play Justin Timberlake "Suit and Tie". While the band plays the intro the guys focus and goes into the choreography.
Sam:
I can't wait 'til I get you on the floor, good-looking
Going hot, so hot, just like an oven
And owww burned myself, I just had to touch it
But it's so fire and it's all mine
Hey baby, and we don't mind all the watching, ha
Cause if they study close, real close
They might learn something
She ain't nothing but a little doozie when she does it
She's so fire tonight
Noah:
And as long as I got my suit and tie

Love is swinging in the air tonight
Let me show you a few things
Let me show you a few things
Show you a few things about love
Now we're in the swing of love
Let me show you a few things

Jeffrey:

And aww, shit's so sick, got a hit and picked up a habit
But that's alright, 'cause you're all mine

Hey
They bell rings and everyone gather their things and leaves the choir room. Reese begins to wrap his arms around Riley and they leave out parting away from the others. Riley notices that Garth is approaching them. Reese reads Riley facial expression and sees that she has something on her mind.
"What's wrong babe?"
"Huh – I'm fine. I was just thinking about Halloween. I think it would be nice if maybe we can go to a Haunted House with some of our friends."
"That's a great idea. Mr. Evans did say we should spend time with each other outside of Glee club," Reese said pausing.
They reach a classroom. Riley kisses him then walks into the class as Reese turns around going back down the hallway.

INT. Reese's Car
Reese pulls up to Autumn's house with Noah in the car. He honks his horn and out comes Autumn, Riley, and Candace runs out and into the car smiling in laughing. Reese drives off envisioning himself driving in the city lights as "Take Back The Night" by Justin Timberlake plays.
Reese:
Yeah, uh, feels good, don't it?
Listen, uh
Riley:
Yeah, this was your city
You did it all and more, broke every law except for one, babe
Attraction, are you ready
I know you feel it
Pull you nearer 'til you feel it again, oh
Autumn, Candace, Logan and Noah:
I wanna do something right
But we can do something better
Ain't no time like tonight
And we ain't trying to save it 'til later
Stay out here living the life
Nobody cares who we are tomorrow
You got that lil' something I like
A little something I've been wanting to borrow
Reese:
Tonight the night's, come on surrender
I won't lead your love astray, astray, yeah
Your love's a weapon
Give your body some direction
That's my aim
Then, we could
New Directions:
Take back the night
Come on, use me up until there's nothing left
Take back the night
Dizzy, spinning, sweating, you can't catch your breath
Take back the night
Ooh, don't know when the sun is rising next
Take back the night
So if the feeling's right, then raise your glass and let's
Reese:
Take back the night, take back the night
They gon' try to shut us down, I'll be damned if we gon' let them
Take back the night, take back the night
You know you gon' mess around and find out there ain't no one better
Take back the night, oh
Yeah
Reese (Riley):
Rare, there's not too many
No one but you and crowded rooms, we can do anything (yeah)
Attraction can drive you crazy
The way you move, you go crazy, that's incentive for me
Autumn, Candace, Riley and Noah:
I wanna do something right
But we can do something better
Ain't no time like tonight
And we ain't trying to save it 'til later
Stay out here living the life
Nobody cares who we are tomorrow
You got that lil' something I like
A little something I've been wanting to borrow
Reese:
Tonight the night's, come on surrender
I won't lead your love astray, astray, yeah
Your love's a weapon
Give your body some direction

So if the feeling's right, then raise your glass and let's
(Reese parks the car. Autumn, Candace, Riley and Noah all jumps out of the car. They join a line of people waiting for the haunted house. They are smiling then breaks out into a dance number with a few of the waiting people as background dances.)
Reese:
Take back the night, take back the night
They gon' try to shut us down, I'll be damned if we gon' let them
Take back the night, take back the night
You know you gon' mess around and find out there ain't no one better
Reese joins them in the line and stand next to Riley. Autumn calls Riley out so they can go to the bathroom while the others hold their place in line.
Autumn looks over her should as they walk away because she wanted a safe distance away from everyone else.
"Riles you've been spacing out lately what's wrong?"
"I just been feeling smothered by Reese. I care about him, but lately every time he comes around me I feel like I just want to be a thousand feet away. Is that wrong to feel that way about your boyfriends?"
"I kind of felt that way with Chase when he started dating Solaris. I never told you this, but I use to feel sick and like there was a big weight on my shoulders. But after I met Zane, I started to realize that it was me. I felt guilty for having uncontrollable feelings. I know you in a different situation, but maybe the way you feel has nothing to do with Reese. Maybe it's because you feel like you owe him?"
"Owe him? He saved my life…He makes me feel special and worth looking at. Maybe I do owe him, but I really do care about him," Riley said looking back at Reese who is smiling at her "Do you still have feelings for Chase even though you're with Zane?"
"I'm happy. Zane knows how I feel about him. Chase is happy with Solaris," Autumn said with disbelief.
Although Autumn feelings for Chase was subsided she still held out hope that his relationship with Solaris wasn't meaning. The two girls returned to their friends and they all enjoyed themselves.
INT. Solaris's Room
Solaris and Chase are laying on her bed kissing. Chase becomes more passionate, but Solaris stops him from going any further.
"What's wrong?" Chase said with confusion.
"I don't want to have sex with you. Why can't we have a conversation for once? Why do we always have to have sex?" Solaris said upset.
"I thought this is what you wanted?"
"I do… I did," Solaris said sitting up on the bed "I want you to treat me like you treat Autumn. I want you to see me as you see her," she said as a tear fell down her eye.
"I can't – I'm sorry, but I can't. I've been trying to make this little thing between us work, but I want her and I can't have her." Chase sits up "We're sophomores, we're young, and we're having fun. I thought that's what we agreed on when we started this."
"We've been together for a month Chase. How long do I need to be with you before you see me as your girlfriend?"
"I don't know. You knew the type of guy I was. I don't do relationships."
"You don't do relationship or you just don't do relationships with me?"
The room falls into an awkward silence. "Cry Me A River" begins to play as they transition to the school.

INT. Hallways
Chase enters the school and walks to the hallway. Chase watches Autumn laughing and being flirtatious with Zane. As Solaris is at her locker looking over at Chase whose not paying her attention
Chase:
You were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn't think that they would come crashing down, no
Chase and Solaris:
You don't have to say, what you did,

Solaris (Chase):
I know that they say
That somethings are better left unsaid
It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it
(Don't act like you don't know it)
All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it
(Yea..)
(Solaris is with a group of girls who are talking but muted as she sings. She walks away and joins Chase. They both are walking down the hall singing, but not paying any attention to each other.)
Chase and Solaris (Solaris):

Cry me a river
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh
Autumn walks towards Chase and he snaps back into reality. Both of them are frozen. Neither had talked to each other since the Invitational.
"Hey," the both awkwardly said simultaneously then tried to laugh it off.
"I'm sorry. I haven't heard from you. I was wondering if we were cool?" Autumn asked.
"Of course. Maybe we can hang out tonight?"
Autumn phone ring and she reads a text. She begins to frown as Chase looks at her waiting for an answer.
"I'm sorry Chase. Zane just asked me to study with him. Can we reschedule?"
"Yeah. Sure."
Autumn hugs Chase and proceeds to walks off.
INT. AUDITORIUM
Rachel is on the stage daydreaming about her days in New Directions. She begins to laugh as she remembers all the good times and bad, the wins and loses, the friends and the enemies she made. She looks out to the crowd and hears the door open. She can't make out who the person is.
Jesse:
Just somethin' about you
Way I'm lookin at you whatever
keep lookin at me
Gettin' scared now, right?
Don't fear me baby, it's just Jessie
It feel good right?
Listen
(She sees Jesse standing in the doorway. She covers her mouth in surprise.)
I kind of noticed something wasn't right
In your colorful face
It's kind of weird to me
Since you're so fine
If it's up to me your face'll change...
(Jesse starts to climb over the chairs in the audience. He makes his way towards the stage. Rachel is dancing on the stage in shock and in enjoyment.)
If you smilin', that should set the tone
Just be limber
And If you let go, the music should groove your bones
Just remember
Sing this song with me
Ain't nobody love you like I love you
You're a good girl and that's what makes me trust ya
Late at night, I talk to you
You will know the difference when I touch you
People are so phony
Nosy cause they're lonely
Aren't you sick of the same thing?
They say so and so was dating
Love you or they're hating
When it doesn't matter anyway
Cause we're here tonight
If you smiling, that should set the tone
Just be limber baby
And If you let go, the music should groove your bones
Baby just remember
Sing this song with me
Ain't nobody love you like I love you
You're a good girl and that's what makes me trust ya
Late at night, I talk to you
You will know the difference when I touch you
Yeah, you know I can make ya happy

If you give me that chance
To be your man

If you give me that chance
To be your man

And then ...
Maybe we'll fly the night away (I just wanna love you baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Girl
Maybe we'll fly the night away(I just wanna love you baby)
Girl ...
(As he approach the stage he jumps on it right in front of Rachel. They stare into each other eyes, getting closer and closer to each other.)
Ma, what you wanna do?
I'm in front of you
Grab a friend, see I can have fun with two
Or me and you put on a stage show
And the mall kids, that's how to change low
From them you heard "wow, it's the same glow"
Look at me, I say "yeah, it's the same dough"
We the same type, you my air of life
You have me sleeping in the same bed, every night
Go rock with me, you deserve the best
Take a few shots
Let it burn in your chest
We could ride down
Pumping N.E.R.D. in the deck
Funny how a few words turn into sex
Play this free, joint called "brain"
(I just love your, Brain)
Ma, take a hint
Make me suerve in the lane
The name St James
And I burn every track
Rach and Jess
Now how heavy is that?
(He grabs her hands and spins her. He sings in her ear and caresses her arms. She looks back into his eyes. She turns facing him and then leans into kiss him.)
Maybe we'll fly the night away (I just wanna love you baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Girl
Maybe we'll fly the night away(I just wanna love you baby)
Girl ...

(Can't love you like I do)
You're a good girl and that's what makes me trust ya
(Trust ya like I do)
Late at night, I talk to you
(Hey)
You will know the difference when I
Break this down
You know, I used to dream about this when I was a
little boy
I never thought it would end up this way, Drums
(Hey)
It's kind of special right? yeah
You know, you think about it
Sometimes people just destined
Destined to do what they do
And that's what it is
Now everybody dance.
Sam walks into the auditorium unnoticed and watch as Rachel and Jesse kisses. His heart drops seeing the girl he loves slip away from him. He quickly rushes out the auditorium.
EXT. FOOTBALL FIELD (BLEACHERS)
Reese approaches Riley who is waiting for him on the bleachers. He is wearing his football uniform and covered in sweat. He kisses her cheek.
"Hey! I can't talk long. I got to get back to practice," Reese said panting.
"I guess it can wait until later," Riley said disconcertingly.
He gives her another kiss and rushes off back to practice. Garth walks up to her shortly after. When Riley sees her she begins to smile.
"Hey," Garth said smiling "What put you in a happy mood?"
