Rachel finally made her Broadway debut in Funny Girl during last week’s Glee to rave reviews and the support of her friends. But could this success all come crashing down?
In the next episode, Rachel ends up auditioning for a television show pilot, but she might be jeopardizing her Funny Girl role as a result. Also, Mercedes helps out Santana by trying to get her involved on her record deal. And the moment is finally here: Shirley MacLaine guest stars as a New York socialite and befriends none other than Blaine.
