Ep 7. The Substitute

Substitute Spanish teacher, Holly Holliday, fills in for a sick Will Schuester and immediately shakes up McKinley High with her unconventional teaching methods and outlandish personality. Meanwhile, Rachel and Finn face a crisis when Rachel’s boyfriend, Jesse St. James, makes a surprise reappearance at McKinley and tries to win Rachel back. Amidst all the drama, Kurt begins to feel left out and decides to transfer to Dalton Academy, an all-boys school with a renowned glee club led by the charming and charismatic Blaine Anderson. The episode features dynamic musical performances including “Forget You” by CeeLo Green, “Make ‘Em Laugh” from Singin’ in the Rain, and “Nowadays/Hot Honey Rag” from Chicago. With plenty of heart and humor, “The Substitute” showcases the power of music to inspire and motivate even the most unlikely of students.
