Second Chance

"Dude, what the hell?" Puck asked, breaking the awkward silence when Quinn was gone.

"What?" Finn asked.

"How could you make Quinn go?" Puck wondered.

"All she ever wanted was to get out of Lima and make something of herself, and now that she's doing that, you wanna take it away?" Finn questioned Puck.

Puck shook his head. "Of course not, but things are different now. She should be here."

"I know there's a part of you that wants her here and a part of you that knows she needs to be at Yale." Finn told Puck. "But if you still love her, and I know that you do, you'll let her go."

Puck furrowed his eyebrow.

"It's what's best for her." Finn added as he stood up. "And it'll be best for you and Beth in the long-run, too."

"How?" Puck wondered.

"Because you'll be able to completely focus on Beth now." Finn stated. "Come on, let's go home."

"No, you're right." Puck shook his head as he got up. "I'm gonna take her back to L.A. with me."

"Right now?" Finn asked.

"Yeah." Puck said. "We can figure everything out."

"Why don't you let her stay with me and Rachel while you go get everything together?" Finn suggested.

"I wanna go with Daddy." Beth told Finn.

"Okay." Finn said with a shrug.

Puck nodded. "I'll text you when we land, okay? Beth, wanna say goodbye?"

"Bye, bye." Beth waved at Finn.

"Bye, Beth. Be good." Finn responded as he turned to Puck. "Call if you need anything."

"Thanks, man."
