An alarm blares off, waking Mia up from her sleep. As Mia sits up, she hears chattering coming from downstairs. Mia grabs her dressing gown and she walks out of her room.
Downstairs, Mia walks into the kitchen as Amanda says to Beth "so I'll be back tomorrow in the evening, please be nice to Mia, there's food in the cupboards, just call me if you need anything" Mia then says "where are you going?" Amanda then smiles "morning sweetheart, I have a meeting with my new boss, I need to leave or I'll be late" Mia nods "see you tomorrow" Amanda nods and she walks out of the house with a bag. Beth then looks at Mia and smiles "home alone for a night" Mia nods at her suspiciously "so?" Beth then grabs her phone and she says "so? Let's get the gang together, it's time for a party" Mia then says "seriously?" Beth nods at her "oh yes".
Kurt sits on his sofa blowing up some balloons as Blaine walks in. Kurt then stops blowing up the balloon and he smiles "morning sleepy head" Blaine smiles at him "what're you doing? I didn't forget a birthday, did I?" Kurt shakes his head "no, actually I organised something, I just thought it would be nice after everything that's happened recently" Blaine stares at him "I still don't understand" Kurt then laughs "I'm throwing a party!" Blaine then smiles at him "who's coming?" Kurt says "I invited everyone from your old film set, and I invited some people from the set of Funny Girl, and I invited a couple of our neighbours" Blaine nods at him "this will be awesome".
(Come To A Party, Dogfight starts to play)
Kurt starts to put some balloons up around the living room and he starts to sing "well you know my birthday now, shown you my middle name, see I'm an open book, have a look, this ain't no pick up game".
Blaine picks up some banners and he starts to put them up around the room and he then sings on his own "I heard your pretty voice, then we saw eye to eye on all that music stuff, not on fluff, we didn't have to try, now isn't that rare, that kind of connection".
Kurt then sings on his own again and sings "so why not come to a party with me, so why not come to this party, a five-piece band I'll take your hand, Blaine and twirl you around, buy you a drink, don't stop you think, say yes, come to a party with me, just say yes".
Back at Beth and Mia's house, Beth and Mia both stand in the bathroom, looking in the mirror and putting makeup on.
Beth smiles at herself in the mirror as she then starts to sing "born in Buffalo, to humble Christian folks, my old man raised me right, real polite, no tellin' dirty jokes".
Mia smiles as she then sings "a Wally Cleaver type, eat every brussels sprout, my mama's pride and joy, golden girl, your average Eagle scout, now look in these eyes".
Beth then sings on her own "they ain't gonna hurt you, so why not come to a party with me".
Mia then rolls her eyes at Beth.
Beth continues singing on her own "come on! It's just a party, a great excuse to cut it loose girl and do what you feel, hey just for a night, no holdin' tight, let go. Let's go. Come to a party with me, gonna be a real nice time, come on, what do you say?".
Mia then sings back on her own "if I go, well you know mom would be here on her own, she would die, I could lie, I couldn't lie to my, if I go she would know, look I'm not ready, we're closing it's early I still gotta work".
Beth then takes some of Mia's makeup off of her and Mia sings on her own "come on don't be a jerk, give it back Beth stop, look I still gotta mop, plus I don't really drink, see I really don't think I can come".
As Mia sings "I can't just get up and go, mama needs me around, I'd like to but I...Beth come on, I've got work to do, please".
Kurt, Blaine and Beth also sing "come to this party with me, look you can't miss this party, you'll meet my friends and when it ends yo, I'll race you right home, oh why cap the knife, we'll grab a bite, table for two, just me and you, candles and wine and intertwine".
Mia then runs over to the front door, and as she opens it, Elijah stands there smiling and holding flowers.
Elijah then ends the song "you'll miss out on one hell of a time, should be one rousin' party, well... I'm glad we met, I've gotta get, Mia, gosh you seem swell, still i's a shame, I thought if you came, who knows, maybe we coulda...".

Later in the day, music plays from inside Mia and Beth's house.
Inside the house are Mia, Beth, Elijah, Marcus, Kara, Kourtney, Nathan, Xander and many other Cheerio's and Glee Club members.
Mia sits resting in Elijah's arms as Beth downs another drink and is clearly over-intoxicated.
Elijah then says "think your sister has had enough to drink yet?" Mia then says "the more she drinks, the quieter the night will be for me" Elijah then laughs at her.
Elijah turns his head, where he sees Marcus sat in the corner of the room on his own.

Beth stands dancing with both Nathan and Xander.
Beth then says "you two should talk more in Glee Club, you're both actually quite fun to be around" Nathan looks at her "well, I would, but we don't exactly get much time to shine" Beth smiles at the two of them "well, we definitely need to change that" Nathan nods at her "how?" Beth smiles "you'll have to remind me to put a good word in for you" Nathan smiles at her.
Elijah walks over to Marcus and he says "not having much fun?" Marcus looks up at Elijah "it's not that, I got stood up this morning before I came here. It was my first ever date with a guy, and he just stood me up, I felt humiliated" Elijah looks at Marcus "you'll find someone, sometimes it takes time and a lot of pain, but you will find someone, I promise" Marcus smiles at Elijah "thank you" Elijah then offers Marcus his hand and says "come on, let's get you up" Marcus nods at him.
Mia smiles at Elijah and Marcus as the two of them dance together.
Mia then walks over to the front door, and she walks outside and sits on a chair outside.
As Mia sits there, Ava then says "oh, hello?" Mia turns her head seeing Ava. Mia then says "hi? Who are you?" Ava smiles "I'm new, I moved in a couple of houses down, I'm starting at McKinley High soon, I was just on my way to store" Mia looks back at her house, and then at Ava "I'll come with you" Ava smiles "thanks?" Mia laughs "anything to get away from the party" Ava smiles.
