7After Vocal Adrenaline perform, Sue announces that she is extending the invitational two more days in order to give New Directions more time to prepare. Desperate for more members, Rachel asks Kitty Wilde (Becca Tobin) to rejoin; while initially hesitant due to the heartbreak caused by the original group's disbanding, she agrees and helps Rachel create a new setlist using some of Sue's favorite songs. Sam also helps in the recruitment process by convincing Spencer Porter (Marshall Williams) to join. Meanwhile, Sue traps Blaine and Kurt in an ersatz elevator before the Warblers perform and, via a mechanized robot, tells them that they must passionately kiss if they want to leave—which they do, after spending over a day in confinement. They escape just as New Directions perform and after Rachel and Will make amends. Despite her attempts to sabotage their chances, Sue begrudgingly names the New Directions as winners of the invitational; Vocal Adrenaline are the runners-up, which angers Clint (Max George), the lead singer. Kurt and Blaine confront Sue over their captivity and tell her that the kiss has merely reaffirmed their decision to remain friends. She appears to concede; however, she later tells Becky that that was her plan all along, and that she has much more up her sleeve.

17
18!!Tropes:
19* AmbiguouslyGay: Though Super Gay Warbler and Other Really Gay Warbler claim to both have girlfriends, they come across as [[ShapedLikeItself super gay]].
20* BreakingTheFourthWall: Sue plays footage of Klaine, including some ImagineSpot and DreamSequence parts, which Becky mentions.
21* CreatorCameo: Michael Hitchcock returns in his final appearance as Dalton Rumba.
22* EleventhHourRanger: Kitty and Spencer.
23* {{Foreshadowing}}: Sue says that the show will go on and New Directions will perform even if one of their coaches get kidnapped, looking right at Kurt who looks worried. Guess.
24* FourthWallObserver: [[MetaGuy Sue]]. She literally says they have six or seven (it was six) weeks left depending on the Network.
25* {{Homage}}: To ''Franchise/{{Saw}}''.
26* ImplausibleDeniability: Sue apparently not knowing about the elevator trap.
27* MayDecemberRomance: Kurt, aged 20, and Walter (old boyfriend), aged 50-*mumble*. Played by the 63-year-old Harry Hamlin.
28* NoFourthWall
29* TheQuarterback: {{Discussed}}. Spencer wants to be starting QB, but Sam wants him to show he can make a stand before he'll give him the position, so gives him a RousingSpeech:
30-->'''Spencer:''' Well, now that Beiste is gone and you're coach, I assumed I'm gonna be starting QB, so I got to be ready, right?
31-->'''Sam:''' Yeah, um, actually, I kind of changed my mind about that. [...] You got the arm for it, but, uh, quarterbacks are leaders, not cowards. [...] Look, man. Every movement needs a leader, someone to step out in the light and say, "Hey, this is me. This is who I am, and this is what I stand for." Look, I get it, high school is tough, but you can do this, and they will lose their judgment as soon as you lose yours. I got your back here, dude — And that guy right there, Finn, was one of my best friends, and he was the quarterback here, and when he joined the glee club, it changed everything here forever. Pick up where he left off, and it'll be the best thing that's ever happened to you.
32* TakeThatAudience[=/=]StrawFan: Like the last episode, using Sue as a model of Klaine shippers.
33* TransparentCloset: By this episode, everyone but the writers (maybe) thinks that Quinn likes girls. Kitty's also rather convinced that Rachel may have a thing for blonde cheerleaders and that this isn't news, either.
34* {{Twincest}} [[IncestSubtext Subtext]]: Kitty calls the [=McCarthys=] "creepy [[Series/GameOfThrones Jaime and Cersei Lannister]]".
