(BLAINE sings "Misery" by Maroon 5 while the Warblers sing backup; KURT is not that pleased) 

BLAINE: Hey Regionals, you just met our opening number. 

Everyone cheered for them, they could sing and they could all admit that. 

(All of the Warblers clap and cheer)

BLAINE: (To KURT) How did you manage to find a Burberry-esque canary cage cover?

KURT: Canaries don't like cold weather, especially Pavarotti.

BLAINE: So, what'd you think of the song?

KURT: Can I be really honest with you? Because it comes from a place of caring.

BLAINE: Yeah.

KURT: Been there done that. Look, you're amazing Blaine. Your solos are breath-taking, they're also numerous.

BLAINE: Kurt, the council decides who gets the solos. Do I detect a little jealousy?

KURT: No you detect a lot of jealousy. Look, Blaine sometimes I don't feel like we're the Warblers. I feel like we're Blaine and the Pips. 

"Very true." Stasia nodded, because it did always look like they were. 

(Cut to RACHEL, STASIA and FINN walking into the choir room)

RACHEL: Okay so, I really took all of your notes from 'My Headband' to heart and I-I really tapped into my pain for this second song. So, come and sit down. These are for you, just in case. [RACHEL, hands them a box of tissues] it's pretty emotional. Don't be afraid to if you need to... 

(Rachel sings "Only Child") 

RACHEL: It's called "Only Child." 

STASIA: But you're not an only child! 

Everyone in the room just said either horrified by the song or silently laughing. 

STASIA: Somewhere on Olympus in the Great Percy Jackson universe Apollo is crying from sadness of how much this song sucks. But at least he's not throwing a tantrum like he probably did over "My Headband". 

Everyone burst out laughing in complete amusement. 

"You know, I've actually met Apollo. And did you know Hephestus is actually a woman? I didn't until I met her and killed her father, Zeus." Hope said and everyone looked at her baffled. 

"What?!" Everyone asked her, and she just shrugged. 

"Long story." She waved them off again. 

"Okay, once we're done with my life, I kind of want to watch yours." Stasia said and everyone in the room nodded in agreement. 

"No." Hope said, shaking her head. "I don't- I can't.... I've been through too much in my life, I don't want to relive it. You're lucky. The worst moment in your life was not knowing if you or the twins would live in those couple of months. That feeling was my inter life, until everyone actually did die. Until I actually died. I won't suffer through that pain again." Hope said, shaking her head. "I'll talk about it, just don't ask me to watch it."
