**Matthew 'Matt' Evans** is the first child of Sam Evans and Mercedes Jones. He is portrayed by Actually.robert.morgan, and is one of the major characters on the show. He was one of the last students from the original batch of New Directions to audition, auditioning with the song Human Nature by Michael Jackson.

In Season Two, Matt seemingly disappears, due to complications in his portrayer's life. He returns, in an orderly manner, performing Penny Lane by The Beatles, and meeting one of his soon to be best friends, Janelle. He plays Aaron Samuels in the episode Revenge Party, and after the show, Beth and him kindle their love for each other, and officially become a couple. At Nationals of that year, him and Beth shared, "the kiss that missed" and outed their relationship to everyone.

In Season Three, I'll fill this in later.

## Biography

* Season One
* Season Two
* Season Three
* Season Four
* Season Five
* Season Six

Along with most of the other characters, Matt is introduced to the audience in voiceover,e originally was a shy football player, but grew to form a strong bond with many of his classmates, especially Kat Hummel-Anderson, Theo Anderson-Lopez, and Beth Puckerman.

In Season Two, he briefly leaves McKinley without explanation, but returns better than ever. It is assumed he either went to jail or rehab. He returns in the midseason episode, [idk the episode name], singing Penny Lane by the Beatles, in a similar fashion to 'As If We Never Said Goodbye', from the eighteenth episode of Glee's second season. He first meets Janelle [and someone else i think idk], and purposely tries to avoid Beth.

During the school's production of Mean Girls, he plays Aaron Samuels, and does a damn good job of it. After the show, him and Beth meet in one of the school's dressing rooms, and he confesses his love for her and consults her with a kiss. They decide to keep the relationship on the DL, though much to their dismay, Janelle and Lara already witnessed the kiss. Despite both of their amazing acting jobs in Mean Girls, they couldn't manage to act like a real broken up couple, and it was painfully obvious. They eventually break up, and Matt performs Say You Won't Let Go by James Arthur, leaving Beth distraught.

Fill this in later about prom and murder episodes. Nationals comes ahead, and Beth and Matt are still broken up. They perform two songs at Nationals, and seemingly lose. However, they didn't lose just because of their setlist, they also lost because of Matt and Beth's "the kiss that missed" after their duet. Many of the team members were upset at Batt for this kiss, because it costed them Nationals, but they were also really happy for them. They have an assumed amazing summer together, and they come back going strong in Season Three.

Season Three is when fans agreed that Matt was at his peak. In Season Three, he is going through his senior year, and experiencing a varied range of emotions. He runs for student class president, but loses to Kat. He auditions for several solos in competitions, but never seems to get them, going through a phase of depression that his amazing girlfriend helps him through. At this point, him and Beth were full time partners, and were often mocked as "the T-Rex and the Jew".

In Guilty Pleasures, the first episode of the season, he revealed that his guilty pleasure, much like his dads' not-so-guilty pleasure, was Justin Bieber. He did a performance of Baby by Justin Bieber, and managed to stay hot, but also weird. This episode marks the first time Lara, Janelle, and Matt go to the Lima Bean together.

In the next episode, when Theo Anderson-Lopez is introduced, Matt makes his acquaintance. Along with Kat, Beth, and Lara, the two boys quickly form a friendship, and the five become known as The New York Gang. Janelle and Drizzle are later added to the group. Matt and Lara quickly became close friends, and a new best-friendship emerged. (ill do the rest later). In Season Four, Matt moves to New York with The New York Gang, seemingly fine. He starts to suffer from an eating disorder that still isn't resolved until Season Six's midway point. He gets engaged with Beth, though the engagement is soon called off, and his relationship with Theo pursues. They eventually break up, Batt is back together.

 In Season Five, he is seemingly not experiencing much, though does start a new and small friendship with Drizzle Puckerman. He eventually gets married to Beth in a double wedding with Kara. They start off a new chapter in their lives, becoming teachers, and Season Six starts.

 In Season Six, Batt is officially teaching the New Directions, and they have some trouble recruiting newbies. However, the alumni all help and Glee is officially back. He plays Brad in that years production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, alongside his wife playing the role of Janet. They do an astounding performance at Invitationals, run the ball all the way to Regionals, and hit a home run at Nationals, winning their second National title. During Regionals, [insert character who helps Matt] finds Matt in the bathroom puking himself because someone called him fat, and through out the next two episodes, he goes to therapy and eventually gets better, ending his eating disorder storyline. Beth and him have two kids, Michael Evans and Alecia Evans, and in the series finale, he performs I Lived with all of the alumni.

## Appearance

Matt is on the taller side, with his height going from 5'8"- 6'4.5" throughout the show's run. This is why he is known as 'The T-Rex', contributing to the "Why's the T-Rex eating the Jew?" running gag.
