Glee: Nationals Biggest Hits Two-Part Special

William McKinley Hallway FINN (voiceover) I really like Rachel, but weve been going over a rough patch. She keeps making googly eyes at Sam [Camera shows Rachel looking at Sam lovingly while Finn stands behind]. I dont know. We cant really afford to at mad at each other now, with Nationals coming up and all

Switch to choir room scene WILL Okay guys, we have reached Nationals. Now, I know that last year we made it to number 12, but this year, were going to make it to first place! RACHEL Excuse me Mr. Shue (raises and puts down hand). WILL Yes Rachel? RACHEL Where will Nationals be held this year? WILL Drumroll Finn! Camera shows Finn doing a drumroll WILL Los Angeles! New Directions cheers

WILL This year, Vocal Adrenaline isnt going to be much of a problem. Theyve been struggling to find a new coach since Dustin Goolsby got fired. SANTANA Well Mr Shue, they did find a replacement. TINA Who? RACHEL Jesse St. James FINN How do the two of you know that? SANTANA I follow Sunshine on Twitter (takes out phone) RACHEL I thought Sunshine quit? SANTANA No, she said that since Dustin got fired, life at Carmel got better FINN Rachel? (Looks at Rachel) RACHEL Well, Ive been in contact with Jesse as a seasonal vocal coach and last week he told me he wouldnt help his competition anymore. ARTIE With the kind of help Jesse tried to give as last year, I dont think therell be much competition

WILL Look guys, we cant afford to slack even if they were still coach-less. There are other teams other than Vocal Adrenaline. RACHEL Mr Shues right guys. (Stands up) Now, we have to decide on our set list for Nationals. I think we should start with a Samchel duet, thats the only one we havent tried yet. SANTANA What is it with you and Sam? Are you two secretly dating? Because if you are, I think you should tell Finn so he can find someone else before his man boobs grow even bigger. MERCEDES Whoa whoa whoa! Hell no girl, that boy is mine. SAM Were not dating! I dont even like her! RACHEL Looks hurt and stares daggers at Sam SAM No, I meant I meant that I meant that I dont like Rachel that way but I like her as a friend RACHEL Finn, I love you. Sam means practically nothing to me romantically. I just want the chance to sing with every vocally talented boy before my senior year is over! TINA Rachel, you just insulted Artie, you havent sung with him before either. RACHEL I mean one where I can dance with as well!

BRITTANY Thats really mean Rachel, as Senior Class President, I declare that Rachel is unfit to be the Glee Clubs Captain RACHEL You cant strip me of my position just because you dont like me Brittany! BRITANNY Yeah I can ARTIE I agree; you should. RACHEL Come on guys. Finn, help me!

SANTANA Well, Rachel, you dont exactly do much as Captain anyway. RACHEL Hey! I do a lot as Captain of this Glee Club! SANTANA Like? RACHEL I I cant think of any now. WILL Alright enough guys! We have to decide on our set list. But I do a lot!

RORY (standing at the door with Samuel Larsens character) May I suggest something? SANTANA Hey, look at that, Irelands back.

FINN Hear him out Santana. RORY Thanks Finn Hudson. I would like to suggest an idea for your songs for your National competition this year. MIKE Well? FINN What what is it? RORY The New Directions Biggest Hits SANTANA What the hell is that supposed to mean? FINN I think he means, our greatest hits over the years. like the album, Queens Greatest Hits! WILL I think thats a great idea. Why dont you two take a seat? Since, this is the last year for some of you, priority for Solos will be given to Seniors only, unless there are extra places. KURT Mr Shue, what exactly are our Greatest Hits? WILL Heres how were going to it, you all get three votes. Write them on a piece of a paper, 1 to 3, 1 being the one you like the most. And by the end of this week, you put them in this box (holds up box for everyone to see) Like

BLAINE Mr Shuester, why do you have a box at-the-ready? BRITANNY Sometimes Miss Sylvester puts boxes in here to prepare for when Glee Club shuts down. Everyone looks around awkwardly. WILL Okay, so thats what were going to do. *Bell rings* SAM Hey Mercedes. I want you to know that theres nothing going on between Rachel and me. MERCEDES Oh, honey. I believe you. What I am afraid of is Rachel. Shes probably going to seduce you, if she is interested. SAM Dont worry, youre the only one I like.

New Directions is having lunch in the cafeteria MIKE (whispers) Why is there a purple piano here? ARTIE Remember, we arent obliged to do anything anymore SAM Whats this about the Purple Pianos? courtyard. QUINN At the start of the year, Mr Shue wanted us to perform whenever we saw a Purple Piano. I saw another one in the

PUCK But Sue destroyed all of them KURT And now, theyre back. PUCK Last time we did a performance in the cafeteria, a food fight happened. Dont know why Mr Shue still thinks its a good idea. RACHEL But we enjoyed ourselves! So I think we should try it again. KURT I cannot afford another meatball stain on my sweater. RACHEL Come on, itll be fun. MIKE If we have to do another number, I get dips on the piano. RORY But the bands already here MIKE Damn it.

<New Directions bursts into Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5> FINN At least theyre ignoring us this time. PUCK I guess thats a big improvement. They all go back to their seats

The next day, back in the choir room WILL If you havent put your votes in, nows the time to do it guys. Your votes decide what we do for Nationals. (flips through everything) And the top 3 are. Drumroll Finn. Camera shows Finn doing a drumroll WILL One. Dont Stop Believing. Two, Loser Like Me and Three, Light Up The World. Sorry guys, but we need a ballad. So which do you want? QUINN I think we should pick a new song, a duet between SAM Mercedes should have a part in the ballad. QUINN I was going to say me and Puck but I think you and Mercedes would make good duet partners. MERCEDES Im down with that. SAM Me too. RACHEL What about me? MERCEDES What do you mean what about me? RACHEL Im the competition balladeer for this group. FINN Rachel, I think that you should hand the reins over to someone else this time.

RACHEL Im a senior too! FINN So am I Rachel, but weve been leading every song since the Club started. You know why three members defected to the Troubletones? Its because the two of us were always in the limelight, and they didnt get any PUCK Since when did you like giving the spotlight away? FINN Since this year? WILL Yeah whats gotten into you Finn? FINN (voiceover) Truth is, I dont know whats gotten into me. I guess Ive just stopped caring. I mean, I love singing but its just gotten a bit boring to me. I guess, I dont know what I want to do for my future so Im giving an opportunity to those who can make it. Like Kurt or Rachel or Mercedes, plus I dont really want to do another duet with Rachel for a competition, see I noticed that every time we started with Rachel singing a ballad, we won, but every time we started with me and Rachel, we lost, kinda shook my confidence. FINN Dunno. Just want them to get an opportunity to sing at Nationals. *Bell rings* RACHEL Finn, how could you do that? FINN Look, tell me. Do you like Sam?

RACHEL I like him as a friend and a singer. FINN Do you think hes better than me or something? RACHEL Well, I think his dancing is much better than yours. FINN You know Im talking about singing. RACHEL Well, his vocal range is superior to yours, but I love you Finn. FINN Rachel, I love you too. I just wished that youd be more supportive of me. RACHEL Sorry Finn, I just will you come to New York with me after graduation? FINN Where could I go for college? RACHEL I hear Columbia and NYU are pretty good, you could go there. And, we could still be together! FINN Ill send my application Finn and Rachel hug and smile at each other FINN Lets go pack for Nationals.
