It is now Monday morning and everyone is sat in the choir room talking but once Mr Schue walks in everyone quietens down slightly. Mr Schue then puts his book down on the piano before saying "Guys, listen up. I have an announcement to make."

"Adele is dead," Brittany says.

"No," Mr Schue says. "I have been asked to join a blue ribbon panel to rewrite the arts curriculum nationwide."

"Whoa," everyone says.

"Thank you," Mr Schue says. "I'll be taking a short sabbatical which means I'm leaving McKinley at the end of the week."

"What? This is crazy," Tina says.

"But Glee Club is your life," Artie says.

"Which is why this is only temporary," Mr Schue says. "I'll be back right after sectionals."

"Wait. After sectionals?" Tina asks.

"Whoa!" Sam says.

"It's not like we know him that well or anything," Unique says.

"Mr Schue. We need you to help us with sectionals," Ariel says.

"Guys, guys, calm down. Look, I knew I needed to find a replacement, which is why I brought in Finn Hudson," Mr Schue says.

"Mr Schue, Finn cannot take over Glee Club," Tina says.

"Finn can take over Glee Club. He is more than capable of doing it," Ariel says while looking at Tina.

"He doesn't know what he's doing at all!" Tina says. "Sorry, Finn."

"I know I can do this. And I've got some great ideas for sectionals," Finn says after getting up.

"We'll all be dead by then! He doesn't know how to direct a musical!" Tina says.

"Do you know how to direct a musical, Tina?" Ariel asks her. "I didn't think so. He is learning as he goes along which is what the rest of us are doing right now."

"Finn Hudson, Schuester," Sue says after she walks into the room. "Figgins' office, right now."

The following day, everyone is getting fitted for their costumes again. "I don't understand. This fit yesterday," Marley says as Tina struggles to do up the costume.

"Maybe it's stress bloating," Tina says. "I get it all the time."

"Hey," Sugar says getting Tina's attention.

"Tina," both Sugar and Brittany both say.

"I love it," Brittany says. "I promise I won't pee in it."

"I'm here for my fitting," Kitty says walking up to Marley and Tina. "Where is Harajuku Girl?"

"I thought you quit because your part was too small," Sugar says.

"Well, Spray-Tanned Hak Nose, to quote Shakespeare, 'There are no small parts, only fat actresses.' Oh, I'm sorry. Did I just say 'fat'? I was distracted by Marley's very noticeable weight gain. I'm confused. Are you playing the lead in Grease or Hairspray?" Kitty says.

"I swear, I'm not eating any differently," Marley says while trying to get the zipper up. "How is this happening?"

"I usually don't believe in the lamestream media's definition of 'science' but it just makes sense that your metabolism is grinding to a halt," Kitty says before putting a hand on Marley's shoulder. "You're getting the body you were destined to have. I had to accept how I am. I spend almost every weekend alone because everyone just assumes that the popular girl's busy. I'm doing this because I could use some friends. Real ones. So in the spirit of Grease, I thought it'd be a good way for us to get to know each other if we had a sleepover."
