(Mercedes was walking down the hall oleh herself the selanjutnya hari at school. An instant message came up on her phone from one of Coach Sylvester's Cheerios--the same one she saw in Shelby's new bernyanyi group, the Troubletones.)

Mercedes's Thoughts: I am so glad that I left those crazy New Directions. People like Rachel were getting on my nerves, taking all of the lead solos. I know I'm a star. I'm Beyonce--and I'm gonna say it again--I ain't no Kelly Rowland!

(Just then, Mercedes saw Santana walk down the hall, still upset from the other day.)
Mercedes: Girl, anda look like you're on suicide risk.
Santana: It's obvious, I am.
Mercedes: Why?
Santana: Someone, I don't know who it is, told my secret about me in cinta with Brittany. And when I find out who it is, I'm gonna go Lima Heights Adjacent on their ass.
Mercedes: Can I ask a real quick question, though?
Santana: Spill it.
Mercedes: What the hell is Lima Heights Adjacent?
(Silence.)
Santana: I've told everyone at this school 100 times. It's where I was raised.
Mercedes: Well, yeah, but what does that have to do with your situation?
(Silence.)
Santana: Forget you. I'm just gonna go to class.
(Santana went to her selanjutnya class, hearing chuckles from students surrounding her. Mercedes felt really bad for her...and then had a sudden thought.)
Mercedes's Thoughts: New Directions.

(Later on in the day, the Troubletones were onstage in the auditorium, practicing a new song. All of the New Directions members walked on the stage.)

Finn: What do anda want us for?
Kurt: I was working on my campaign, and I got a call from Mercedes.
Tina: Mike and I were practicing some dance moves in the dance room.
(Silence.)
Artie: Who gave this girl lines?
Quinn (confused): Yeah, and how the hell did I end up back in New Directions? And where's my Skank outfit?
(Silence.)
Puck: anda basically bitched yourself back the other day.
Quinn (confused): Huh?
Santana (folding her arms): One of anda jerk heads spilled my secret, and I wanna find out who so I can shove a pole in your throat.
Rachel (to Finn): Tell me it's not you, Finn.
Finn: It wasn't.
Rachel: Well, don't anda remember when Santana shoved that new Irish kid into his locker? And then when anda were defending him, she called anda a whole bunch of names and insulted you.
Finn: Yeah, but I didn't tell her secret.
Irish kid (assuring Rachel): I didn't, either, but I wanted to.
(Silence.)
Finn: Really, Rory?
Rory: She treated the both of us terribly, Finn Hudson. My uncle would kick her to Kingdom Come.
(Silence.)
Santana: Um, what the hell did anda say?
Mercedes: Just forget it. We're still trying to find out who did this to Santana.
Puck: We don't know.
Tina: Can I ask anda guys something?
Quinn: anda want another line in this?
Tina: Yeah, but--
Rachel: That would be a bad idea, Tina, especially now.
Tina: But I wanna know why Brittany--
Mercedes: Shut it, vampire.
(Tina makes a disappointed, embarrassed face as she sinks her head.)
Artie (raises his hand): Guys, why is Brittany on your side?
Mercedes: I felt that she needs girl power to help support her in the presidential election, especially since the whole Santana-being-a-lesbian thing was told to the whol school.
Brittany: Also, I heard that Blaine and Kurt had sex, and I was thinking about that girl in a movie I watched where the gay guy lost his control and raped the girl. I didn't want to end up like that, so...
Tina (shocked): I was just about to--
Mercedes: Tina, I think anda should go.
(Tina walks out of the room, leaving everyone else with the conversation.)
Rachel: Please don't try to get on us, Mercedes. We honestly didn't do anything. I swear.
Finn: Me too.
Rory: In honor of the Irish, New Directions have all my support.
Santana: Hey, kid, beat it.
Rory (confused): Beat what?
Santana: Leave.
Mercedes: Don't be mean.
Santana: It was probably him who got my secret out. I've always hated you, kid. But anda really crossed me.
Rory: No, I didn't--
Finn: Back off him.
Puck: anda Troubletones are lame. If anda can't trust us, then we're outta here.
Artie: I always thought of anda guys as friends, but now you're officially not anymore.
Quinn: Well, I'm gonna go. I have to call Child Protective Services again. The last time I did, someone was watching 'Jersey Shore', and I couldn't get a hold of them.

(All of New Directions left the auditorium, leaving the Troubletones oleh themselves.)
Mercedes (to Santana and Brittany): Do anda think they're lying?
Santana and Brittany: Hell yes.
Mercedes (surpised): Damn you, Brittana.
