The character who is the best-of-the-best with a supporting cast that [[Can't Catch Up]] comes across someone even better than them; [[The Ace|someone more powerful]] than the [[Superhero]], or more skilled than the [[Ninja]], or smarter than [[The Professor]], or richer and more important than the rich important guy, or a better banjo player than the master banjo player, etc.
Line 222 ⟶ 223:
** Rachel herself functions as the Always Someone Better for everyone else in New Directions, particularly in Season One - though one who's heavily invested in having them all recognise and accept her superiority. This is interestingly inverted in Season Two, however, as she's increasingly shown not to be definitively ''better'' at anything than all the other members of the club - she has vocal equals in Mercedes and Kurt, and is relegated to the back row with the weakest dancers in several numbers while Tina and Kurt move to the front row alongside Brittany, Santana and Mike.
** And Vocal Adrenaline as a whole is one for New Directions as a whole.
* In ''[[Community]]
** Also, in the paintball special, Josh Holloway guest stars, and Jeff becomes unnaturally jealous of his good looks.
** Don't forget Rich from the Pottery episode.
