19 [Accidental Video]

[The video cuts on in the middle of Rachel brushing out her hair, watching herself in her mirror. There's a large macaw in the corner, which is the only sign of the event being in her room.

She doesn't seem focused on the PCD -- or the parrot -- but instead on her image in the mirror. Rachel sighs -- the humidity is causing her hair to be curlier and poofier than it normally is and the amount of moisture certainly isn't doing anything for her skin. A tug or two through and the brush makes it through her hair, but the girl looks less than satisfied.

Until Rachel cocks her head to the left and curls her fingers around the handle of her brush and begins to sing to herself, softly, at first, but the more she sings, the louder and more passionate it becomes:]

My mama told me when I was young, we're all born superstars. She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on, in the glass of her boudoir --

[A neat spin and Rachel is full out singing into her mirror -- and seems to be doing a dance, along with her song -- and it appears perfectly choreographed.]

There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are, she said, 'cause he made you perfect, babe, -- so hold your head up, girl, and you'll go far -- listen to me when I say -- !

[The brush is long since forgotten on the dresser, by this point, as she continues her dance.]

I'm beautiful in my way, 'cause God makes no mistakes, I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way -- don't hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and you're set, I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way --

[The PCD times out soon after -- the network has apparently had enough diva for the time being.]

[She isn't considering those reasons because no, okay. 8|]

Thank you, Mister St James.

But of course. [Day = made]

[She does her best.]

There is a woeful lack of Broadway in this place. I found several old records that I apparently collected during my stay here, but I haven't heard that particular song in quite some time.

[Quite some time being... a couple of weeks.]

Song and Dance is one of the most unappreciated musicals out there - for shame, I know but the point stands.

It is sorely under-appreciated.

It's positively criminal -- but I haven't begun a full exploration of the mall since my re-arrival, so I think I might check once the jungles leave.

The crowds prefer grander things such as Phantom - personally I can't see why they can't take both.

There's a mall?

Well, Phantom is a masterpiece.

[She pauses before ducking out of sight. When she returns, Rachel has a journal in her hand and she's flipping through pages.]

-- yes, I've visited it before, and I found a record of the original Broadway production of Hair.

[Genuine surprise]

Obviously I haven't been giving this place enough credit.

You can find anything if you explore, I suppose. I found an old record player that the people I live with fixed for me.

I suppose I'll have to do just that once the mess calms down.

I can show you, if you want.

[There isn't any harm in that, right?]

I'd appreciate it, Rachel.

Someone needs to ensure that you don't make poor musical selections.

[Like Jesse ever would.]

I never make poor musical selections -

Bohemian Rhapsody.

[SHE WILL NEVER GET OVER IT. EVER. WHO USES BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. CHEAP. IT WAS CHEAP. /Rachelrage.]

It was a masterpiece -

Unoriginal.

[SHE SAID IT.

~~It was actually very good and Rachel was suitably impressed but she's never going to admit that because it was the WORST LOSS EVER.~~

But she's mostly teasing -- though she does a very good job of hiding it.]

...Take it back - [OR ELSE RACHEL. OR ELSE]

Or what?

[THIS FACE.]

You'll see -

Completely.

Unoriginal.

You did a Journey mash up - [You wanna go there? He'll go there]

Because we, as a Glee club, began with Don't Stop Believing and we, at the time, were facing disbandment if we did not place at Regionals. We wanted to go out the same way we went in.

[Pause.]

Not to mention the fact that no one uses Journey for showchoir.

Yeah - because it's cheesy. [IT IS OK]

[Oh, you did not.]

And Bohemian Rhapsody isn't entirely predictable?
