Twerk

**Twerk** is the sixth episode of Season One. It aired on October 31, 2017.

## Synopsis

Inspired by the other groups' upbeat routines at sectionals, Kitty asks Zandra to join her in teaching the rest of the club to twerk. She promises not to include it in their choreography for regionals, but they agree it'd be nice to learn. Rehearsals begin and the club has the most fun they've ever had in their month and a half of being together.

One week after her abortion, Kamiya finally decides to tell Glen. She had been avoiding him for nearly two weeks and wants to refrain from keeping it from him for too long. She reminds Glen that she loves and still wants to be with him before telling him about the abortion. Expecting a negative reaction, Kamiya steps away. Instead, Glen tells her that he is more relieved than anything. He would have preferred her tell him earlier, but the last thing he wanted was to become a father at fifteen. While Kamiya is scarred and still not over the abortion, she is grateful to see how understanding he is instead of going on a rampage. They get back together and vow to start using protection.

Zandra invites Arden over to her house while Maya is at work. They end up making out after helping each other with their homework, stopping after Arden receives a text message from her mother Jennifer. When she ends the phone call, Zandra brings up the possibility of them becoming girlfriends in the near future. Arden laughs, but quickly stops when she realizes she's being serious. Zandra knows that she has trouble being comfortable in her skin and just wants her to love herself. This stirs up a heated discussion about their fate. She warns Arden that she doesn't want to continue their fling with her because if she falls in love, most likely, nothing will come out of it and she'll be left with a broken heart.

In other news, Kitty and Brendon make things official. He shows up at McKinley to surprise her and gives her flowers when he does. Kitty admits that though their relationship is fairly new, no one had ever made her this happy. Candice spots Brendon before he leaves and asks Kitty about him when she enters the choir room. Kitty spills everything and Candice admits they could be moving too fast. Kitty disagrees and starts class once the rest of the club arrives. They continue practicing their moves and call it a day.

After the last bell, Candice gets slushied while at her locker. She runs back to the choir room and tells Kitty who helps her clean up before heading to Will's office to report the incident. Candice has no idea who did it and didn't get a chance to see the person's face as her eyes were covered by the cold, icy drink. Will takes a look at the security camera and zooms him, immediately recognizing the two people that did it as Vocal Adrenaline's lead singers. Will realizes that this could spark a nasty rivalry between both groups and promises to pay Carmel High School a visit.
