"Alright so today we have a tryout!" We all look around confused and Will rolls his eyes "Look we have a tryout! We are going to move on! We lost and while I will not blame anyone I believe this will be for the best!"

"What is for the best is moving on from you" We all look at Sue and Shelby walking in "I am here to replace you as the glee club leader"

"Come on what do you have over me?" Shelby snaps and trophies are brought in by cheerios "Ok so you have some show choir trophies"

"Oh will" Shelby snaps again and more award plaques along with some other golden items "I am more than qualified"

"We-well I am their teacher!" Will motions toward us "They have my back right?"

"Well you do tend to be awful at life lessons and you do kind of perv on us" I nod in agreement to Tina's words "Plus..I think she has more training"

"We settles things the same way in this club!" Will is pissed right now "I will do a song and so will you! They will vote with raise of hand and whoever wins stays! By stays I mean in this school in general!"

"Will I can just be the cho~"

"No cause I got you out of here once I can get you out again" I see Rachel tilt her head confused and then it seems to click something in her brain based on her expression change "Now Brad...Play me a melody!"

-Will singing-
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin

He says, "Son can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes."

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be

He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As a smile ran away from his face
"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place."

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life

And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call "Loneliness"
But it's better than drinking alone

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
To forget about life for a while

And the piano it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doing here?"

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright

"Good singing but I can do better" Shelby steps to the front with a smile "Brad please help me defy gravity"

-Shelby singing-

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you won't bring me down

I'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change but 'til I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost!

I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you won't bring me down

Unlimited (unlimited)
My future is (future is) unlimited (unlimited)
And I've just had a vision
Almost like a prophecy
I know it sounds truly crazy
And true, the vision's hazy
But I swear, someday I'll be...

Flying so high! (defying gravity)
Kiss me goodbye! (defying gravity)

So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately,
"Everyone deserves the chance to fly!"

I'm defying gravity!
And you won't bring me down, bring me down, bring me down!
Ah, ah

"Alright they have sang now!" Sue looks at us all "Who votes for Will?"

"Anyone?" Finn, Artie, and Mercedes raise their hands "You all would through what we have away for that?! She listened to me to just leave her daughter! Why would she not listen to anyone else and leave you high and dry?!"

"Because she is tens times better than you!" I hold Rachel back "Now get the hell out of here!"

"I agree" Sue holds up her camera that of course she has "Making bets on school grounds is shameful"

Will blanches as he walks out with Sue. We are dismissed while Rachel goes with Shelby. They needs some time to talk. Meanwhile I need a plan for our next date.

I think I may have the perfect idea!
