Afterwards, we cut to Breadstix, where Kurt is proposing a toast to his newly extended family; Finn looking for all the world like the angrily saddest man in Lima. We then hear his displeasure, mumbling that they're not a family. Burt agrees, saying he and Carole are just dating. We then see one variable Kurt didn't factor in; namely, that when you have two sports-minded people in Finn and Burt, you know they'll gravitate towards each other. Kurt sits dilapidated. Back at the Hummel house, Kurt stews as he removes swatches from his wall. Burt called it, knowing that if he and Finn started the sports talk, he'd piss Kurt off. When Burt reminds Kurt about sitting through ''{{Theater/Riverdance}}'' three years in a row, Kurt simply says maybe it was too soon for Burt and Carole to date. Burt stands offended.

We then get a slightly hoisted petard; seems Sue was expecting a fluff piece, what she's getting is a hard-hitting investigation and the OhCrap face that goes with it. We see the Red and White assemble, Sue expecting the usual amazing but mediocre by her standards performance. What she (and we) get instead is Mercedes taking the mic, saying that Cheerios! is about being popular, but it should be more. She asks how many of the students feel fat; we cut to Quinn raising her hand. She asks how many feel worthless; more hands are raised. Eventually, the bulk of the students raise hands. Eventually, this leads to some obvious Christina, accompanied by the rest of the Cheerios! and the rest of the school. Shocking no one, the only one not amused is Sue; however, fate gives her a reprieve. Turns out, the reporter thought Sue was behind the performance and is gonna give her a glowing piece. You can clearly see Sue's surprise at this, her stammering for words which is (and will be) a rarity for her.

In preparation for an interview with ''Splits Magazine'', Sue demands that new cheerleader Mercedes lose ten pounds in a week. She reserves the school auditorium for cheer practice, so Will has to find the club a new rehearsal space. He visits a local roller rink where he finds former Glee club member April Rhodes (Kristin Chenoweth), who tells him that she is the [[GoldDigger mistress]] of the wealthy [[MayDecemberRomance eighty-year-old]] tycoon who owns the rink. Upon learning that Will is looking to sublet his apartment, April invites herself to visit. After spending the [[ThereIsOnlyOneBed night]] [[SleepCute sharing a bed]], Will forbids April from staying over again and tells her she is worth more than being a mistress. April says she will break up with her tycoon.
[[WeightWoe Mercedes struggles]] to eat healthfully and her mid-week weigh-in shows that she has gained two pounds. She begins extreme dieting and faints in the school cafeteria. Former cheerleading captain Quinn sympathizes with Mercedes, commending her for being so comfortable in her own body and advising her not to let being a cheerleader detract from that. Though Mercedes is embarrassed, Quinn tells her that she is beautiful. On the day of the pep rally, Mercedes abandons the planned routine, and instead sings "Beautiful". The journalist from ''Splits Magazine'' assumes that Sue engineered the performance and expresses his admiration for her, promising her positive publicity from his article.
Kurt sets up Burt (Mike O'Malley) with Finn's widowed mother Carole (Romy Rosemont). He believes that it will help him become closer to Finn, for whom he has feelings. Finn is upset when Carole sells their old furniture, and stops his late father's recliner from being sold. He is initially hostile to her dating someone new, but begins to bond with Burt over sports at a group dinner. Kurt feels left out, and later asks Finn to help him break up their parents. Finn initially agrees, but relents after Burt tells him that he loves Carole and would never hurt her. They watch a basketball game together and Finn allows Burt to sit in his father's recliner, while Kurt watches on sadly through the window.
When April attempts to break up with her tycoon, he has a stroke and dies. His wife gives April $2 million in hush money, and April uses some of it to buy the auditorium for the Glee club and thus explaining all the elaborate props used until Season 5. She plans to go to Broadway to launch the first all-white production of ''The Wiz''. The episode ends with April and the Glee club performing "Home" from ''The Wiz''.

Finn claims that's where he was conceived, only for Carole to reveal it was a pinball machine. Explains the occasions where his brain will go full tilt. When she tries to get rid of an old recliner the hubby enjoyed, Finn puts a shoe down. Seems Carole's found someone new; naturally, Finn is displeased, especially when it's revealed to be Burt Hummel. Cut to a roller rink where
Cheerios! weigh-in. Becky's lost two pounds, while Mercedes, again, shocking no one with this kind of plot, ''gains'' two pounds. Sue mentions the win at all costs attitude that defines her, we spot the inevitable as we cut to Finn confronting Kurt about their parents; seems Kurt introduced them to each other at a parent-teacher conference a month prior. This, if it wasn't made clear, is all part of Kurt's plan to have Finn; get the parents together, have them move in together, Finn and Kurt share a room, et al. Kurt then gets a little too smug, saying he wants them to redecorate together. Finn, naturally not too happy at these affairs, storms off as we cut to the Lillian Adler Memorial Choir Room of Gleeful Joy. ND are displeased at the choice of rehearsal space. Kurt then decides to vent, dismissing St. Berry's relationship while accusing Finn of being a stick in the mud. Of course, this being Glee, we never settle with vocal lamenting; duets are more effective, specifically when Finn is singing to his Dad's chair.
Now, while all this was going on, Will looked to be having second thoughts about letting April sublet; when she arrives, he expresses his discomfort. April senses it, saying she's lonely. Will let's her stay the night; again, emotional moments in this show are best backed by a track; in this case, mashing up the
