Jayma Mays: Emma Pillsbury

Quotes 

• Emma Pillsbury : Let me guess. Finn and Rachel are going to do a ballad, right? Followed by the kids joining in with a classic rock number where Mercedes will belt out the last jaw-dropping note.

  Will Schuester : Have you been going through my desk?

  Emma Pillsbury : It's what you always do.

• Emma Pillsbury : [Will hands her a pair of tickets]  House seats to sectionals?

  Will Schuester : Those things are hard to come by. Scalpers are getting, like, five bucks for 'em.

• Rachel Berry : [learning Finn once slept with Santana]  Just tell me if it's true.

  Finn Hudson : I'm sorry. Okay? I shouldn't have lied to you. I just thought that if I told you the truth, you'd get so mad at me, and you're kind of scary.

  Rachel Berry : Don't you see how it's ten times worse now? And why her? I mean, Quinn I'd understand, but her? Do you think she's prettier than me?

  Emma Pillsbury : Don't answer that.

• Emma Pillsbury : Why did you lie to Rachel?

  Finn Hudson : I didn't want to hurt her.

  Rachel Berry : Then why did you do it with her?

  Finn Hudson : Why are you so caught up with who it was? It doesn't...

  Rachel Berry : Was it because she's hot?

  Finn Hudson : Yeah, sure, she's super hot, but, um, that's...

  [he sees Emma nonverbally telling him "no" and trails off] 

  Rachel Berry : As a therapist, is it productive for me to slap him right now?

  Emma Pillsbury : Well, I'm not a therapist, but no. Um... maybe you should storm out.

  Rachel Berry : Yeah.

  [with a contemptable look, she storms out, leaving Finn alone] 

  Emma Pillsbury : Is there anything else you want to talk about?

• Will Schuester : Every team tries to showcase their strongest players.

  Emma Pillsbury : Look, just seeing your kids do the "Rocky Horror" thing really reminded me of how much talent you've got in Glee Club. Quinn has a beautiful voice, and Mike Chang has dance moves that are to die for. Look, I'm sure that you know what you're doing; I'm not saying that. Everyone has picked you as favorites for sectionals, you won your sectional last year. It's just, I don't know, you guys used to be the underdogs. Now you're a real team, which is wonderful. You're a constellation of stars. I would just hate to think that you might be ignoring some of them because they don't burn quite as obviously bright.

  [realizing she's overstepped] 

  Emma Pillsbury : I've said too much.

  Will Schuester : No. You said just enough.

• Rachel Berry : My dads went to couples counseling because one of them put up wallpaper in the den without asking the other, and they said it was the only thing that kept them from killing each other.

  Emma Pillsbury : Okay.

  Rachel Berry : We need your help. That's why I set up this counseling session.

  Emma Pillsbury : You're both in Glee. Why don't you sing about it? Right? Aren't there some great songs about betrayal or something? I'm pretty sure there's some Eagles songs.
