Meanwhile, Rachel's New York ambitions take an unexpected turn."
"Beatlemania continues at McKinley with the Tina in the Sky with Diamonds episode. It's time for the students to vote for prom queen and king, but when Tina receives a nomination, she takes on a fierce attitude that alienates her biggest supporters.
