After his emotionally disastrous trip to New York Finn is back in Lima working in an autobody shop, until Artie asks him to help direct the school musical with him. After hitting a couple of dead ends looking for a Danny, Finn lures one in from the football team, tricking Ryder Lynn into auditioning.
