Line 3:
The episode opens with Will introducing the club to their "show choir consultant" Jesse St. James, and Rachel is the only one who seems any sort of pleased at all. Finn especially does not trust Jesse, and is worried that they'll get tricked into doing something stupid. <ref>If you look closely, there are parallels between this and "The Power of Madonna," right down to Rachel's pleased smile.</ref> Will says that they're doing original songs: a duet and a group number. Finn immediately volunteers himself and Rachel to sing the duet (much to Quinn's displeasure). Jesse says that the Vocal Adrenaline strategy (as we saw with "[[Glee (TV)/Recap/S1 E14 Hell O|Highway to Hell]]" and "[[Glee (TV)/Recap/S1 E22 Journey to Regionals|Bohemian Rhapsody]]") is to build the performance around their star performer. Will says they'll hold auditions to determine who the soloist is. Finn protests it's not their style, but nobody agrees with him because there's too much at stake.
Sue and Terri have a plan to screw up the Glee kids' flight to New York [[Moral Event Horizon|by sending them to Libya]]. While Sue is displeased that Terri brought her Howard Bamboo instead of an expert computer hacker, it's still not that bad as all they have to do is e-mail the agency with Figgins' e-mail <ref>GettinFiggywithit@Aol.com</ref>, asking them to reroute it to Tripoli, and the only holdup is that they don't have his password. Sue correctly guesses Figgins' password ([[What an Idiot!|1234]]). [[Captain Obvious|Terri notes she's rather grumpy]].
Becky and a woman who we later find out is her mother intercept Will in the hallway and ask to talk to him about something. In the auditorium, Becky asks to join Glee club because Sue kicked her off the Cheerios. Will tells her that he can't right now because Nationals is coming up ''fast'', but promises her she can join next year. Later, Will confronts Sue in the cafeteria, asking why she kicked off Becky, who was sweet and loyal, where Sue bitterly informs him that [[Replacement Goldfish|Becky reminded her of her sister]], who had died the day before due to minor pneumonia.
Line 23:
The actual funeral. Sue is shocked to discover that Jean brought in a full house. When she is asked to give a speech, Sue breaks down after two lines and [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|Will stands up and finishes her speech (about being "tethered" to somebody) for her]]. Afterwards, the glee kids stand up to sing "Pure Imagination" to a video of Sue-and-Jean moments.
Quinn climbs into Finn's car, where she tells him she's proud of him. [[Kick the Dog|Finn then breaks up with her]] because he doesn't feel "tethered" to her like Jean did to Sue. Quinn tries to deny that they're breaking up, but [[What the Hell, Hero?|Finn calls her out on her shallowness]] and asks whether she still feels anything, which drives Quinn to tears. She then asks him if he's satisfied and leaves him alone in the car. Finn then eyes Rachel leaving the funeral parlor.
Glee club room, where Brittany is filming the results of the auditions. Will asks Jesse if giving Rachel the solo will get them a win at Nationals. Jesse agrees that it's in the bag.
