Season 2, Episode 17: A NIGHT OF NEGLECT

The episode opens in glee club where Will tell the kids they are going to sell salt water Taffy to pay for plane tickets to Nationals in New York City. They must sell 25,000 pieces. Mike, Tina, Artie and Britney complain about how nobody has cared about raising money so they can go to their scholastic decathlon competition in Detroit. Will says they need to sell even more Taffy. Holly Holiday and Will who are now dating have pizza. Holly tells Will a better way to make money is to have a benefit concert called A Night Of Neglect where the glee club sings songs by neglected artists. Will agrees with the idea and New Directions start preparing for it. While planning, they discover Sunshine Corozon from Vocal Adrenalin in the school and accuse her of spying. She says she wants to help because she knows how scholastic decathlon students are neglected. She said she can get all 600 of her twitter fans to come. She then performs "All By Myself" for the group. Rachel does not want her to perform because she still believes she is a spy. The others convince her to let Sunshine perform. Meanwhile Sue organises a group consisting of Dustin Goolsby (coach of Vocal Adrenalin), Sandy Rhyerson (ex-coach of McKinley glee club), Terri Shcuster (Wills ex-wife) and herself. She calls the group THE LEAGUE OF DOOM! And their mission is to destroy New Directions before they get to Nationals. They all agree and Sue gives them the following nicknames: Zod (herself), Sargent Hansom (Dustin), The Pink Dagger (Sandy) and The Honey Badger (Terri). She gets Dustin to seduce Holly to break her and Will up. His plan fails but Will gets jealous. Holly also gets jealous when he sees Will talking to Emma. Emma tells Will that Carl has left her for good and her OCD has become worse. Will comforts her. Lauren becomes Mercedes' manager and convinces her to become a mega diva. Mercedes demands many things and refuses to perform unless she gets them all. Sue calls in Sandy to gather a group of hecklers consisting of Azimio, Jacob and Becky. On the night of the performance, Blaine and Kurt show up to support the glee club. Karofsky shows up Blaine tells him to back off. Santana shows up and almost finds out that Karofsky is gay. She defends Blaine and Kurt and chases Karofsky off. She then receives a text message and tells the other glee club members that Sunshine isn't going to show up and neither is her 600 fans. Puck says there is only 6 people in the audience. Finn says the show must go on. Tina goes out first and performs "I Follow Rivers" where she is insulted by the hecklers. She cries and runs off stage. Holly speaks to the hecklers and tells them that tearing people down isn't a good thing. The three of them leave the school. Sue gets mad at Sandy for failing but he says he will fix it by tearing down the rest of the performance. Holly goes on stage and performs "Turning Tables" which Will watches. Mercedes disappears because her demands were not attended to the way she wanted. Everybody goes in search for her. Rachel finds Mercedes in her car and tells her that to earn respect she shouldn't be a diva. Mercedes is sad because she is just a good of singer as Rachel and everybody likes her MORE but, Rachel always gets the spotlight. Rachel doesn't know why but says being liked pulls you away from being a star. Rachel gives Mercedes the spot as the closing performance. Mercedes goes out and performs "Ain't No Way" which instead of booing, Sandy applauds it. Holly gets a job teaching in Cleveland for 4 months. Will doesn't want her to go but she says her leaving is her way of saying they have to break up because she is always on the move and isn't ready for a committed relationship. She reminds Will he still loves Emma and that Emma still loves him. Holly tells Will not to give up on Emma before she leaves. Sandy pays for the scholastic decathlon to go to their competition where they win thanks to something they learnt in Holly's class. Sue gets mad at Sandy and Dustin for failing and turns to Terri in her time of need. Terri is prepared for whats Sue has planned.
