The episode features the start of a new school year at McKinley High, but Principal Sylvester (Jane Lynch) has disbanded all the arts. Following the epic failure of the first episode of her semi-autobiographical live TV series, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) has decided to reinstate the arts and reviving New Directions at McKinley with the help of her best friend Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer). Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss) is now the coach of the Dalton Academy Warblers, and Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) is coaching McKinley’s bitter rivals, Vocal Adrenaline.
The episode received positive reviews from critics, most of them remarking how the episode reminds of Glee's first seasons.
