Rachel was driving, and in her car on the radio a woman was saying “the star of
Broadway Rachel Berry takes a vacation from the stage to finish her studies ... ”, she hangs up
the radio when you enter the McKinley High Art school parking lot where you park
your car.
She walks through the corridors, without even realizing that wherever she goes
draws the attention of the students, until they reach the director Will Shue's office.
Will- Rachel - he hugs her.
Rachel- Wow, things have really changed around here. - She says looking at the sign
with the name “Director Will Shue”.
Will- Yeah, after you got back to NIADA and Sam won the nationals with New
Directions, art directors made me a director and McKinley became a school
teaching where you value the arts. We have dance, theater, music and ...
Rachel- And the choir club - she interrupts him.
Will- Exactly - they smile. - I'm glad you chose to do your internship here, isn't it
every day we have a star - He winks at her, who smiles sheepishly.
Rachel- Will Sam accept to work with me? - Rachel remembers that she went
away to New York and just left Sam behind, ignored his calls
until one day they just stopped. She comes back now, after almost five years,
to do an internship with him didn't seem appropriate.
Will- About that, I want you to have your own club. I want you to bring back the
Troubletones.
Rachel- Wait, a club of mine, that will compete with New Directions in the sections? -
And compete with Sam - She thought.
Will- Yes. The truth is that students only want to join the choir club if it is the
New Directions, and well you're Rachel Berry a star, students will want to be your own
team.
Rachel- Does Sam know about this?
Will- He knows I'm looking for someone.- Will realizes that Rachel still looked
in doubt - Rachel think of the students. Think that there may be someone with a talent and
that you don’t have the opportunity to show.
Rachel- Emotional blackmail, Mr. Shue? - he smiles sideways - Okay, I'm
inside.
Will- Come, I'll show you everything.
Will takes Rachel through the halls showing her each room, explaining to her that besides
common subjects students have to choose some extracurricular activity,
some choose dance, others theater ranging from improvisation to direction of plays
written by themselves, in addition to learning how to write music, read sheet music and play
instruments. Not to mention the football team, basketball, cheerios and the club
coral.
Sam- Mr. Shue, Rachel - Sam walks by and greets and suddenly stops when
account of the name you spoke. He turns again - Rachel?
Rachel- Hi Sam - she gives a boring smile.
Will- Rachel will be working with us for a while.
Sam- And New York?
Rachel- I need to do an internship to finish NIADA and I thought it would be perfect here.
I was going to call you sooner but I didn't think I would answer.
Sam- I am not you. - They were silent for a few seconds looking at each other -
I need to go to class.
Rachel watched until Sam was out of sight.
Ella Parker, captain of the cherrios, Valerie Singer and Rebbeca Thorne, were in the middle
from the field with the other cheerleaders rehearsing the song “Pretty girls by Britney
Spears ”, while trainer Sue Sylvester and her megaphone judged them with their eyes.
All- All around the world, pretty girls
Wipe the floor with all the boys
Pour the drinks, bring the noise
We're just so pretty!
All around the world, pretty girls
Jump the line, to the front
Do what we like, get what we want
We're just so pretty!
Ella- Hey, don't you know that it's always the same?From Australia 'round to LA
You can betcha ', wherever the girls go, boys follow
We be keeping them up on their toes
They can laugh, but they don't get the jokes
Just you watch, they're so predictable
All- All around the world, pretty girls
Wipe the floor with all the boys
Pour the drinks, bring the noise
We're just so pretty!
All around the world, pretty girls
Jump the line, to the front
Do what we like, get what we want
We're just so pretty!
Sue- That was awful, for the shower.
Ella walked ahead, while the other two followed behind.
Val- Did you hear that Rachel Berry was at school yesterday?
Becca- I think everyone knew - Val rolled his eyes
Val- I'm saying that there is a rumor that she will work here.
Becca stopped and held Ella to do the same.
Becca‐ Are you saying we are going to have class with her?
Val- Probably. - The two smiled.
Ella- They think Rachel, the star on Broadway, is going to quit stardom and come to teach
in Ohio? - the two looked at each other as if looking for an answer - The answer is no.
- She turned and kept going to the women's locker room.
Val- I bet twenty dollars that I'm sure - she shouts making Ella look at her.
Ella- done. - the two shake hands with each other.
Valerie then leaves the two behind.
Becca- You know you're going to lose, right?
Ella- I never lose.
She smiled as if to say that this time she will.
Ella- Stop looking at me like that, because I won't lose.
Becca- You look beautiful when you insist.
In this Ella looks around and sees that they are alone, approaches Becca and says very close
from her mouth.
Ella- I'm not stubborn, I'm sure. - and give it a peck and walked away, leaving
a Becca laughing backwards.
It was night and Rachel was still at school. She was packing up her new
room, leaving her as she likes. There were plants near the door in front of him,
to McKinley's corridors, and also to the door on his right that led to the living room
of troubletones. On the mural a golden star with some papers about
choirs and Broadway plays poster.
After finishing there, she went through the door on her right that led to the
coral and began to arrange the chairs.
Sam- Still here? - Rachel gets scared and almost lets out a chair. - Sorry no
I wanted to scare you.
Rachel- It was nothing - she smiles at him and puts the chair in place- I want to have everything
ready for the morning.
He agreed and watched as he finished placing the chairs.
Rachel- Sam I ... - Rachel approached Sam and started talking, but lost her
courage. He lowered his eyes to his hand.
Sam- You?
Rachel- I'm sorry - She looked at him - For leaving.
Sam took a step forward closer to Rachel and looked deep inside
of your eyes. He looked disappointed, but not angry.
Sam- The problem was not that you left, Rachel. The problem was that you had me
ignored for months, you didn't even text me telling me to stop
to call you, you just ... disappeared.
Rachel- I know - she held his hands, making Sam look at him - I have no idea
than I can do to make you forgive me, but Sam I'm really sorry. Do not think
that I didn't miss you because I did and that stage? Well I could do it in any
I chose the most place here, with you ... - Rachel stopped talking.
Sam- Olha...eu já te desculpei por ter ido com o Jessi.- Rachel ficou surpresa por ouvir
aquele nome - Não é como se tivéssemos algo sério, também.
Rachel soltou as mãos de Sam, e virou de costas. Ela não queria ficar triste por aquelas
palavras, mas ela ficou. Sam percebeu o que fez e segurou o braço de Rachel fazendo
com que ela se virasse para ele.
Sam- Desculpe, eu não... – Ela o interrompeu.
Rachel- Não você está certo. Você amava a Mercedes e eu, bom eu queria me sentir
viva de novo depois da morte do Finn e você estava ali, sofrendo com o seu final de
relacionamento, estávamos nos iludindo pensando que poderíamos ser alguma coisa.
Sam- Podíamos ter sido, Rachel! Se você não tivesse me ignorado.
Eles se olharam por um tempo até Sam sentar em frente ao piano e começar a tocar
uma música. Rachel sentou ao seu lado e sorriu.
Rachel- Making my way downtown
Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound
