Nahh we defs wont find out if Rachel got the part (b/cos she auditions for call back in 4x22 and this is 4x21)
Cassandra is meant to make an 'unexpected gesture' imma guess this is it and its her way of wishing Rachel good luck - kinda pissed off at Cassandra, she was alcoholic in 4x01 and never been mentioned since
Update on 4x22 spoiler
so came across this on tumblr, but I already knew a character was leaving so nbd - but it's a member in ND (so it isn't Emma) and they 'wont return as a series regular' (so they'll probably appear but just guest star) - so it can't be Marley, Kitty, Wade, Ryder, Jake, Sugar, or Joe - it has to be Sam, Blaine, Brittany, Tina or Artie (since they're regulars) and IMO I think it'll be Brittany; since HeMo is preggo when they resume filming (which wont be over the summer like usual, it'll continue on from 4x22) HeMo will be 7 months preggo and since no time has passed in the Glee world it makes sense b/cos how else would they explain Brittany looking 7 months preggo if it hasn't been a few months in the Glee world... Plus Santana is meant to help Brittany and since she got into MIT she prob has to go early or something and Santana has to help her. Idk tbh could be anyone but Brittany makes sense
I have a sneaky feeling its Artie, but I swear to god if its Tina i will sit down in a corner and cry 10 buckets of tears and throw them all over ryan murphy.
