Glee catch up: Season1 Part 2

The second part of season 2 starts with a very happy Rachel, because she is finally dating the boy of her dreams: Finn Hudson. Finn broke things off with Quinn a week before sectionals, and is finding it hard to adjust to being Rachel's boyfriend. He tells her this, and she is furious, calling him a coward for being worried about his reputation, rather than following his heart. Later, she is in the library picking out a song for the weeks assignment ("hello") when she meets Jesse St. James; the best singer in vocal adrenaline, which is a rival school that New Directions is scheduled to compete against at Regionals. She begins dating him, but is reprimanded by her fellow glee clubbers because it's quite suspicious that he starts dating the best singer in their glee club right after they won sectionals. Luckily, she is saved from making that choice by the next episode, Jesse has transfers to McKinley and joins New Directions. A few weeks later though, Rachel finds herself wishing she had just dumped Jesse for good when her friends told her to. Jesse dumps her and goes back to Vocal Adrenaline to put her and the New Directions in a funk a week before Regionals. They perform a wonderful medley of Journey songs because the first good number they ever performed was "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. Unfortunately, Vocal Adrenaline has an outstanding performance as well, good enough in fact, to take first place. The New Directions don't even take second place. Mr. Shu's original agreement with Principal Figgins was that if they didn't place at Regionals, they would cancel the glee club. Just when it seems all hope is lost, none other than Sue Sylvester comes and saves the day. Saying that she couldn't stand a world where she wasn't always able to make fun of Will's glee club, she convinces Figgins to give the glee club another year.
