With Mr. Shue stuck in a rut out of lack of inspiration for what to do with the New Directions, most of them were sitting around with very little to do. However, for some, it was the complete opposite. Student council elections were on the horizon, and Blaine Anderson was planning on running for president.

Upon hearing about this, Brittany decided she'd help Blaine out with his election, despite running for president as well. Brittany pulled Sam by the arm – who in turn ended up grabbing Keilani's hand and bringing her along for the ride – over to Blaine at his locker. "Blaine Warbler," Brittany began, causing Blaine to look up. "I'd like to introduce you to Sam Evans."

Blaine looked back and forth between the three teenagers, incredibly confused as to what was happening. "Um...we've actually met several times."

"He's your candidate for vice president," Brittany announced in a proud voice, extremely happy with the idea she had come up with.

Blaine, however, wasn't on board with this plan just yet. "Uh, no," He replied with a head shake. "I'm picking my own running mate."

"My family's on food stamps so that'll get you the sympathy vote. I'm not gay so that'll help with the not-gay vote. And, you know, I don't need to brag but..." Sam slipped into the impression like it was second-nature. "My impressions are hilarious a hundred percent of the time."

When Blaine seemed to not understand it, Keilani gestured to Sam and whispered, "George Bush. Super presidential."

"And..." Sam pointed his thumb towards Keilani. "We have an epic and amazing campaign manager in our midst. I heard she was totally awesome at helping run Kurt's campaign last year."

Keilani felt the need to mention that Kurt had lost the year before, but seeing how excited Blaine and Sam were made her stay quiet and keep a bright smile on her face.

Even though he was still a little hesitant on this idea, Blaine didn't want to ruin the plan that the three were clearly so ecstatic about. "You know what? Sure."

Brittany and Keilani both beamed with excitement when she saw the two shaking hands. "First order of business, Artie and I challenge you to a debate."

As Brittany turned on her heel and began skipping away from the trio, Sam leaned forward and whispered in an embarrassed voice, "What's a debate?"

Noticing Blaine's eyes begin to widen, Keilani stepped in the middle of the two so she help put both their nerves at ease. "You know what? This is going to be awesome!" Keilani interjected, clapping her hands excitedly. "You two can start prepping for the debate, and I'm going to grab Marley and start working on posters! This campaign is going to be amazing, okay? Best bowties and impressions in school! What more would people want for their student council?"
