All right. Let's skip a bit. So, Kurt joined the football team, and when he did, he decided to do a new routine. During the big game, at the final play, Finn called a timeout and tapped Puck. "Dude, we gotta do it."
"We will be jokes for the rest of our high school lives."
"We're already jokes! I don't wanna be a Lima loser for the rest of my life."
"Like Baywatch!"
"Hey, ankle grabber. I made out with your mother. No, seriously, I cleaned your pool and then I made out with her in your bed. Nice Ben 10 sheets."
Okay… "Let's do it, Captain."
"Ring On It on three. Yeah. Ready?"
The music turned on and the players were dancing to the music. Some of them were really into it.
Finn yelled, "Hut!" and they scored. The crowd went wild. Will and Emma hugged. Kurt did the "Single Ladies" routine and kicked the ball so high that they won the game. The whole crowd cheered! Even the coach was impressed. In Kurt's bedroom, he sprayed his face. Burt walked downstairs. "I don't know what to say, but I was really proud of you tonight, Kurt. I wish you mom would've been there."
"Thanks. Dad? I have something that I want to say. I'm glad that you're proud of me. Being part of glee and football have showed me that I can really be anything. And what I am is…gay."
"I know."
"Really?"
"I knew since you were three. All you wanted for your birthday that year was a pair of sensible heels. I guess I'm not totally in love with the idea, but if that's who you are, then there's nothing I can do about it. But I love you just as much." They hug. "Thanks for telling me, Kurt."
They meet April Rhodes, a talented southerner and Will's first high school crush. In the choir room, she said to the piano player, "Give me Maybe This Time in B-flat. And don't let me catch you snoozing." The music started and April sung flawlessly. Will leaned on the piano on the other side. By the time she was done, she said, "Stick that in your pipe and smoke it." Kurt wiped a tear.
Meanwhile, April tried to win them over. Kurt told Will, "Mr. Shue, April should stay. I worship her." April tried to teach Mercedes and Tina, "You gotta be more natural."
Tina said, "I can't do this."
Mercedes piped up, "I don't even understand why we're doing this in the first place."
"Your lack of imagination astounds me," April replied. "This is only the beginning. If you can master this, you can sneak anything out of a store between your legs."
Mercedes told Will, "She can stay." Tina said, "Totally."
April was walking with Puck, Mike and Matt. Puck is an idiot.
April walked to Rachel and said, "Rough day at the office?"
"I just have a lot on my plate. It's not easy being in the spotlight. It's the difficult road I've chosen."
"Yeah, I know that song, sister. I could use a little pick-me-up. These high school boys are a lot hotter than they used to be. Finn Hudson is one cutie pie I've got my eyes on."
"Finn's taken, April."
"Yeah, well, some guys like a little extra something on the side."
"What you choose to do with your own life is your business, but don't go around screwing up everyone else's."
"I'm not afraid of you. There was a time when I was the biggest star around here. And now that I've got that back, I'm never gonna let that go." She walked out, humming.
April decided to leave. Tina asked, "Where's April?"
Will said, "April is amazing, but she's not teaching glee club anymore. You don't need her to be great."
Meanwhile, back in the choir room, they all looked at the clock waiting for the other guys to come. When 3:30 arrived, they all looked at the doorway. No one came. Will said, "I guess they're not coming."
Mercedes shook her head, "I can't believe this. How could they just abandon us?" Mike and Matt walked in. Brittany hugged Mike. Santana hugged Matt. Then Puck walked in. Rachel walked toward him, "Are you sure about this, Noah? I mean, choosing us over the team means you might get a Slushie in your face all the time."
"Let them come." Rachel then hugged him and Artie asked, "Where's Finn?"
At one moment, outside, Will and Finn were throwing a football back and forth. Nothing too hard. Will told Finn he wasn't gonna make him choose between football or glee club. But Finn made his choice, and whether Tanaka liked it or not, Finn chose glee.
Finn carried a tray of Slushies. "So, what do you think of my welcome-back gift to the club?"
Rachel said, "Thanks for the Slushies, Finn. They're delicious." Kurt said, "And filled with empty calories. You know why they call them Slushies? Because your butt will look like one if you have too many of them."
Finn said, "I'd like to propose a toast. To Mr. Shue. You were right about glee and football being a killer combo."
Artie raised his cup, "Yeah!" They all clinked their cups and cheered. "Mr. Shue, I am sorry to report that we've all been remiss about our assignment this week."
Mercedes stated, "Yeah, none of us could find a good groove for Bust a Move."
Will said, "Well, guys, that's okay because I feel like the lesson landed. That's what's important. And we are glad to have you back, Finn. Ohh! Brain freeze."
