bright light city

Vegas is nice and all, but this really isn't how I thought I'd end up here.

I'm also really not a tattoo kind of guy.

Why couldn't I be kidnapped to somewhere like New York City? Park Avenue alone would make up for it. Hello Prada.

This tattoo is gaudy and ridiculous. Overall, I'm really not impressed.

Oh. My. God. You have GOT to be kidding me. I have Nationals in three days. Did that even FACTOR into this Zenner Corp's stupid little kidnapping plan, did they even stop to think that my life is just too damn important to be interrupted for this? Ms. Corcoran is going to kill me. Literally. Kidnapping is not an acceptable excuses for missing rehearsal, let alone a performance. Not that I'm complaining about the being out of Ohio thing but could have picked a worse time.

Summer? Jesse? Anyone?

Is this some kind of prize? A prize for losers?

So, everything went okay. I am so grateful to you guys for being there for me yesterday.

I'm okay and the baby's okay and everything is pretty awesome right now.

Her name is Mary Elizabeth Puckerman, Beth for short, and she is definitely the most perfect baby ever.

She is just amazing.

And now I'm going to cry again, even though I told myself I wouldn't.

So. I'm a dad.

Time for the Puckster to go pick up a new guitar.

Finn, I know you still hate me and all, but you can come if you want. We can find you some drums or something.

I've never had to be on the look out for vampires before. Shouldn't we just all wait outside of the local Hot Topic?

Hi. My name is Quinn Fabray and Maria told me you were my doctor here before.

I was hoping I could schedule an appointment, just to make sure everything is okay.

( Puck )
I'm making an appointment with Dr. Wilson. Maria said he was my doctor before. Will you I'd like it if Do you want to come along?

What the heck is going on? Why am I in Vegas?

Is this some kind of messed up joke?

I really don't need this kind of stress right now.

Oh you have got to be kidding me. Is this going to be an ongoing "thing" for the rest of my life? Is it always going to be hanging over my head that I might end up in Las Vegas one day?

And why, may I ask, is it that no matter what it will always happen at the absolute worst possible moment? Regionals are right around the corner, is nothing sacred anymore?

Honestly, Zenner, I'm very upset about this. My relationship with my incredibly handsome and talented boyfriend is shaky at best right now, I doubt this will cement me in his heart as his ideal potential life partner.

Vegas? Again?

No one can get enough of the Puckosaurus.

I felt her kick for the first time today.

Heard you got drunk on New Years. Welcome to the dark side.

So...you still hate me? I thought it might be cool to go out tonight. Some kids from California are throwing a party on the roof. I thought maybe you could come with me.

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate.

Thanks for the muzzle Santana. I should be offended but I take comfort in the thought that if we are truly stuck in Vegas until the end of time then I won't have to work too hard to get a headlining show charging 150 bucks a pop and you'll be walking up and down the strip hoping for 150 bucks a "pop."
