INT. SAM'S APARTMENT
Destiny's Child "Girl" is playing. Rachel is sitting on the couch reading a book until she hears a knock on the door. She places her book on the table and proceeds to open the door. Standing outside of the door is Mercedes and Santana with their arms folded.
"Rachel take a seat," Mercedes said demanding as she stood at the door.
"Yeah Berry! We need to have a little girl talk," Santana said forcing her way into the house.
The girls walk into the house and take a seat on the couch. Rachel has a look of confusion as Santana and Mercedes gives her their version of an intervention.
Mercedes:
Take A Minute Girl Come Sit Down
And Tell Us What's Been Happening
In Your Face I Can See The Pain
Don't You Try To Convince Us That You're Happy (Yeah)
We've Seen This All Before
But He's Taking Advantage Of Your Passion
Because We've Come Too Far
For You To Feel Alone
You Don't Let Him Walk Over Your Heart
I'm Telling You
Mercedes, Santana and Rachel:
Girl, I Can Tell You've Been Crying
And You Needing Somebody To Talk To
Girl, I Can Tell He's Been Lying
And Pretending That He's Faithful And He Loves You
Girl, You Don't Have To Be Hiding
Don't You Be Ashamed To Say He Hurt You
I'm Your Girl, You're My Girl, We're Your Girls
Don't You To Know That We Love You?
Rachel:
See What You All Don't Know About Him
Is I Can't Let Him Go Because He Needs Me
It Ain't Really Him It's Stress From His Job
And I Ain't Making It Easy
I Know You See Him Bugging On Me Sometimes
But I Know Deep Inside He Don't Mean It
It Gets Hard Sometimes
But I Need My Man
I Don't Think Ya'll Understand
I'm Telling You

"I'm really appreciative that you guys came all the way home to talk to me, but I'm fine. Jesse is here and he serenaded me with a song. I think he's willing to give our marriage another chance," Rachel said convincingly.
"Look where you staying at Rachel. You're with Sam but you want to be with Jesse too. You can't play with people hearts," Santana said.
Sam walks into his house not paying attention throwing his keys on the counter. He walks into the living room to see the girls having a conversation. Rachel makes eye contact, but Sam looks away. He continues to walk to the other room.
"You see what you're doing to him?" Mercedes said as she followed Sam.
INT. SAM'S ROOM
Mercedes walks into Sam's bedroom to see him staring into blank space.
"Hey Sam? Are you okay?" Mercedes said with worry.
Although things didn't work out between the two of them Mercedes and Sam has always had a soft spot for each other. They have remained friends and supported each other's dreams.
"Jesse's back… I saw him and Rachel kissing in the auditorium. I actually thought she and I would have a real chance together." Sam said confidingly.
Mercedes slides closer to Sam and places her hand gently on his back.
"Sam Evans you are a kind and loving man. I've watched you mature over the last few years. And plus I seen the way Rachel looks at you. She is in love with you, but things aren't as simple with girls as there are for guys."
Mercedes smiled and kissed Sam's cheek. She walked out the room.

INT. HALLWAYS
Logan begins walking down the hallways. He notices how everyone is acknowledging each other besides him. He tries to gain their attention, but fails.
(Logan's POV: Ever since I joined New Directions I've been ignored. I don't think anyone even knows my name. It's not just at school my life, but my personal life, and my home life. I am invincible to everyone.)
INT. CHOIR ROOM
Logan stands in front of the glee club and begins to perform Boys Like Girls "Broken Man."
Logan:
I want to scream, until no sound comes out and you've learned your lesson
I want to swallow these pills to get to sleep
So I don't have to make a bad impression
I need to start to be myself
Cause I'm sick of everybody else
I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man
I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me
I wanna take back all the shit that I have done
But I guess you were better off without me
I need to start to be myself
Cause I'm sick of everybody else
I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man
I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate
I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate
I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate
I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man
(I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say)
I won't let you bring me down
(I'm always too late, you never got your story straight, I'm always up late, I think I'm everything you hate)
It's here and now I'm breaking out
(I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say)
I will learn to love again
(I'm always too late, you never got your story straight)
But I will stand a broken man
"This Glee club preaches acceptance and being a family but over the past few weeks being apart of this club only made me feel even more alone. You guys welcomed Garth with warmth and open arms. I am tired of being an outcast, so I am quitting this Glee club," Logan says as he walks out of the choir room.
The New Direction looks around the room in silence and disbelief. Sam tries to go after Logan, but it was too late.
EXT. FOOTBALL FIELD
A group of girls are standing on the football field in sweats awaiting something to happen. Avery James a transfer student walks onto the field wearing a Cheerios uniform. She approaches the group of girls with determinations.
"Listen to me and listen to me carefully. I'm Avery James, but everybody calls me AJ. I just transferred here from Texas where I was the head captain of the Pebbles High cheerleaders."
"So what why are you telling us this," said one of the girls.
The other girls begin to agree and whisper amongst themselves.
"I am going to reestablish the Cheerios and make sure that we reign supreme over the whole school," said Avery with a stern voice "We can accomplish this if you allow me to lead you girls I hand selected.
They look around and contemplate AJ's offer.
"Yeah. Let's do it," the girls all agreed.
EXT. HALLWAY
Garth and Riley are walking down the aisle talking amongst themselves as other students walk pass. They reach Riley's locker. Garth looks around as if she wants to say something as Riley opens the locker. She turns to see how disturbed Garth is.
"Hey! Is everything okay with you Garth?" a concerned Riley said.
"I'm fine," Garth said agitatedly.
Riley resumes going into her looking and switching out books for her next set of classes.
Garth continued, "No – I'm not okay Riles. For the last few months a sat by and watched you date Reese knowing that I had feelings for you. Hearing all the profession of love he has for you and through it all I remained by your side."
"I don't know what you expect me to say Garth," Riley said closing her locker "I'm not gay. I don't like girls. I'm with Reese."
"I want you to tell me that you're actually happy with him," Garth reaches for her hand "Tell me that you don't have feelings for me."
The hallways become clear and only the two of the stand staring into each other eyes. Garth moves closer to Riley who seems nervous but is paralyzed. They lock fingers as Garth slowly leans in and gently presses her lips on Riley who at first succumbs to the temptation, but realizes she is with Reese.
"I'm with Reese," Riley said releasing her hand from Garth's and walking away.
She watches Riley walking off down the hall. She begins to sing Tori Kelly's "Should've Been Us."
Garth:
Walking round with my head down
But I can't hide with these high heels on
Downtown in a thick crowd
But it's just you that my mind is on
Dressed up, got my heart messed up
You got yours and I got mine
It's unfair that I still care
And I wonder where you are tonight
Thinking it could be different
But maybe we missed it yea
Thinking it could be different
It could, it could
(She transition to the choir room performing in front of New Direction. She is singing with hurt and pain showing on her face.)
It should've been us
Shoulda been a fire, shoulda been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Coulda been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy, but amazing, baby we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
Back and forth like a tug of war
What's it all for, do I want it back
I still got a little flame for ya
Even though you drove me mad
Now and then, I pretend
That it's you when I close my eyes
You got yours, I got mine
But I wonder where you are tonight
It should've been us
Shoulda been a fire, shoulda been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Coulda been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy, but amazing, baby we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us, yeah
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Thinking it could be different
But maybe we missed it
Thinking it could be different
It could, it could
It should've been us
Shoulda been a fire, shoulda been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Coulda been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy, but amazing, baby we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us, yeah
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh
You know it should've been us
Oh oh, oh oh
It should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
New Direction begins to applaud. Garth takes a seat next to Riley but they do not make eye contact. Reese notices the tension between the two. Sam does a quick step to the front of the room.
"Thank you Garth! That was a great demonstration of singing and performing with conviction and emotion. I just want you guys to remember Sectional is in two weeks. Your captains wanted to tell you something," Sam said.
Autumn and Chase approaches the front of choir room. Sam returns to his seat.
"Yes! Sectional is very close. Only two weeks away and we have a lot of work of head of us. No member can afford to miss any practices," Autumn said.
"We will be working on choreography after school with practices lead by me while Autumn will help with the music," Chase said chiming in.
"We also wanted to introduce Avery James who will be joining us," Autumn said as Avery walked in with a Cheerios uniform and a high ponytail.
"Hello. I'm Avery James but all my friends call me AJ," said Avery as she took a seat amongst the other members of New Directions.
"What do you suppose we do about the missing member," Jeffrey said.
"Without him we do not have the required members to qualify," Candace said.
"We will bring Logan back. I promise guys," said Autumn.
"I don't mean to be rude, but I think I should have the solo at Sectionals," Avery said with confidence.
"What makes you think that?" Riley interjected.
"From what I heard our captain is dating the enemies captain. The other team doesn't know that I'm your secret weapon."
New Direction eyes all fall on Avery. Sam interjects before things get carried away.
"We will discuss solos and leads once we have decided on a set list. Autumn and Chase will work on coming up with the list and we will go from there when the time comes. Meanwhile lets focus on one problem at a time."
The bell rings and everyone begins to exist. Candace and Noah walks up to Autumn who is leaving.
"So what's the plan to get our little buddy Logan back," Noah said.
"He thinks he's not apart of the team so let's show him he is," Autumn said.
INT. SAM'S APARTMENT
Sam walks into his apartment to food on the table and Rachel in the kitchen still coming. Rachel walks closer to Sam and leads him into the diner.
"I knew things haven't been normal between us, but I thought a dinner with us and Santana and Mercedes, and Jesse is coming. It will be like old times," Rachel said.
"Rachel I don't want it to be like old times. I want a change. Mercedes told me what you were doing and I told her to cancel. I think we should be apart. I think you should go back to New York and be with Jesse and your daughter," Sam said as his eyes watered.
"I found out Jesse's been having an affair since the day I found his wedding ring," Rachel voice breaks as she wipes her tears "He came back because he was feeling guilty about the whole thing. He said I drove our relationship into a point that we turns to lies and cheating."
Sam wraps Rachel into her arms and kisses her passionately. Rachel has tears falling from her eyes, but embraces Sam and kisses him back. They stand in the middle of the room kissing and holding each other.

INT. GYM
A group of business people along with Will enters the gym lead by Riley. She separates and goes to the middle of the gym floor.
"The Cheerios was one of McKinley's top performers even out performing the Glee Club numerous times, but Mr. Schuester decided to disband them because the was not considered an art, but I'm here to convince you otherwise. The Cheerios are artist," Avery said then proceeds to bow her head.
The Cheerios appears on the gym floor. They begin to do a routine performance to Chonique Sneed's "Let It Go." The crowd applauses after their performance.
"Mr. Schuester I would like to say after seeing this I do believe the Cheerios should return. My company will be glad to donate the necessary funding for the program," said one of the businessmen.
Will and the man shake hands. Avery puts on a devious smile from the distant.
INT. AUDITORIUM
Logan walks into a dark auditorium. He begins to walk down the aisle moving closer towards the stage. Autumn appears with a smile on her face.
"You were right Logan, we didn't show you enough attention. You were the unsung hero, but you were wrong when you said we wasn't a family."
"We love you and will always look out for each other," Candace said appearing.
"Better or worst. You can always count on us being there," June said.
"You have to tell us when there's a problem or we can't help you," Reese said walking towards him.
"You are buddy Logan," Noah said as him and the other members of New Directions appeared.
Reese takes Logan on stage. New Directions circles around Logan who begins to smile. They give a big group hug. Sam and Rachel appear holding hands and take a seat.
(New Directions is sitting on the edge of the stage with their feet rhythmical swinging back and forth as "Go Big or Go Home" by American begins to play.)
Chase with New Direction:
Don't feel like going home
But all my cash is gone
Yeah, I got nothing to do tonight
I'm passed out on the floor
Up in the hotel bar
But it don't matter, cause I'm feeling fine
Logan:
I'm thinking life's too short; it's passing by
So if I'm gonna go at all
Go big or go
(They jump up and begin running around and circles. They are just playing around having fun)
New Directions:
(Go! Go!)
Go big or go home
Jeffrey:
I gave the dice a roll
And then we lost control
You know we're lucky that we survived
June:
Cause when we jumped the ship
Oh, man, that boat, it flipped
But we should do it all again tonight
Garth:
I'm thinking life's too short; it's passing by
So if we're gonna go at all
Go big or go
New Directions:
(Go! Go!)
Go big or go home
Noah:
Giving my body all the things I need
Rescue me with a little whiskey
Staying out, don't need no sleep
I'll sleep when I'm dead; you can bury me [x2]
(They begin to walk in a circle clapping there hands to the beat and dancing in the center.)
Solaris with Avery:
I guess I'm going home
Cause all my cash is gone
I spent it all trying to feel alive
Go big or go
New Directions:
(Go! Go!)
Go big or go home
Logan (with New Directions):
It's getting crazy
We're gonna do some things that we won't forget
(Go! Go!)
Go big or go home
I'm going crazy
I'm gonna live my life; I got no regrets
(Go! Go!)
Go big or go home
They fall to the ground and begin laughing.
INT. CHOIR ROOM
Riley is searching around the hallways. She walks pass the choir room then comes back when she sees that Reese is in there.
"Hey I've been looking for you," Riley said with a smile.
Reese does not smile. She places her hands on his shoulders but he forcibly removes her hands.
"What's wrong with you Reese? Can you talk to me?" Riley said confused.
"When were you going to tell me you was cheating on me?" Reese said with anger.
"I'm not cheating," Riley said in disbelief.
"It makes sense now. You've been in love with her this whole time," Reese replied.
Riley grew quiet. Her smile had quickly disappeared.
"I'm not in love with her Reese," Riley replied.
"All the time you spent at the track. You've been slowly falling for her, that's why you been pushing me away."
"I didn't mean for it to happen. I swear I really do care about you," Riley said pleadingly.
"But you in love with her. Those are feelings you don't have for me. I can't do this right now Riley—I just have to think," Reese said grabbing his book bag and leaving Riley alone in the room.
Riley stands there in disbelief. She takes a seat on the chair and begins to cry.
