you're rosencrantz & guildenstern. that's enough.

genuinely this is the funniest joke in the series so far to me

Could you sign it for me? Course. What's your name? Fell. Asa Fell, with an S.

Sue abuses her position in the Trump Administration (because she ends up becoming Secretary of Defense after Pete Hegseth dies of cirrhosis) to get the New Directions onto the Freedom 250 concert thus nullifying their amateur status and rendering them ineligible for sectionals. Rachel figures it out first but she’s only focused on how it would render her ineligible for sectionals so Kurt and Mercedes have to teach her that sometimes you have a moral obligation to refuse gigs instead of just mercenary ones. There’s drama because Santana’s family is scared of being targeted by ICE so the new directions stand outside of her house singing This Land Is Your Land and drive the ICE agents away and Santana is forced to act really grateful for it. It ends with New Directions doing a counterprotest concert outside the white house where they sing Freedom by George Michael and everybody who was going to go to the Freedom 250 concert goes to them instead. This is all completely forgotten about next episode and never comes up again (in the next episode Pete Hegseth is back from the dead somehow).
