Idiot Rachel of course ignores me, and we shoot forward in time once more to stand with her in front of her en suite bathroom's mirror as she finishes her day by reciting the following at her reflection: "You are a star, Rachel Berry, and in just two days from now, you are going to shine so bright on that stage that the sun is gonna cry with envy.

Puck assures Frankenteen that, while he appreciates the "brovention," Frankenteen's worries are for naught, as all Puck need do is pass "Mrs. Dusenberry's European Geography test," and he'll be striding across that graduation stage with the rest of them later this month. And how, exactly, will Puck pass this important exam?
