HE WAS HER PERSON

What Lea is describing is the actual ending of Glee... so sad to think about the ending that never happened.

shes not talking about finn. shes talking about cory. this whole episode wasnt glee honestly, it was just the real actors and actresses talking about their relationship with the amazing cory monteith. its been years, frankenteen. RIP

"I didn't have too, he knew."

The fact they were really gonna get married in real life breaks my heart

When she said that "he was her person" I lost it and just broke out in tears.

Lea's not acting in this scene 😭❤️

For those who don't know: the fantasy Rachel describes was the way Glee was supposed to end.

"the show must go... all over the place or something" is from that time Finn encouraged her to sing Don't Rain On My Parade for the first time in front of an audience

I've just realised that was the original ending of glee. I found that out ages ago but I guess I haven't watched this scene since finding out what the ending of glee was supposed to be like. But in case anyone doesn't know, Rachel walking in with Finn teaching and her saying I'm home was supposed to be the ending of glee.

I'd walk through those doors and say I'm home😭😭

I'm crying so much, because not only are they acting, but they're also truly mourning him. I know this happened a while ago. I actually saw it when it aired. But I happened to come across this clip and some others and I can't help but think, "Is this how I would react?" I've never lost anyone close to me, thank the Lord, but if I did, I think I'd be all of them combined. Would the people close to me miss me that much? To feel like a part of their world was gone? It makes you wonder just how much time you really have left.

The little gasp she makes when she sees the plaque is just heartbreaking!

I personally do not necessarily like Lea Michelle or Rachel, but this episode, it genuinely makes me forget about that, because I know Lea isn’t acting. She’s being 100% real and vulnerable. Whatever my personal opinion is on her, she will always get my respect for this episode.

“He was my person” Me: cries silently

I think that Naya really cared about him . I know that she loved him like a brother. And he was Lea's soulmate.

If you watch closely she’s shaking throughout this entire episode- you may not notice it- but it’s there. Poor woman. You can def see it when she sings. I often wonder how many times they had to clean her up- or put on a new shirt during that song. She looks like you could literally blow her over if you tried. Was ply so frail from not eating much while grieving. My heart just breaks for her.

Her talking about being afraid of forgetting his voice really gets to me because my grandad passed and I was so scared that I’d forget his voice.

Wasn't that how the show was supposed to end? Rachel coming back, and telling Finn she was home, just like she said?

I read somewhere that during this episode, Naya had to step in and be the leader since Lea was emotionally not able to be a leader. They also said that Lea would occasionally run to the bathroom and cry🥺 Their story is so tragic, but I am happy she was able to find happiness after Cory. Although I feel like what she had with with Cory was special, he will be in her and our hearts alway💗😖😭

for everything lea has done, we have to give it to her. this girl is incredibly strong. she totally could've just decided to leave and be done with this show but she pushed on and helped the cast make a beautiful tribute episode. cory we miss you so much. hope you and naya are doing well.

I know Lea has done some awful things that have come to light these past few days, but if she ever did do one thing, it was love Corey *Cory, my bad!

The reality that Cory has been gone for 10yrs is still heartbreaking for me as a fan. Cory's passing hit fans and his loved ones so hard. He truly was an amazing actor and singer. I still get chills when I hear him sing. RIP Cory we miss you

7 years later still heartbreaking 😭

"he was my person" that line, right there is so much worse than anything else in thIs show

CRYING MY FUNKING EYES OUT

Wow, I got hit right in the feels

“He was my person” and that’s when I started sobbing 😭

I’ve never been a big fan of Rachel or Lea but in this scene I respect her. She’s gone through a lot and she’s willing to open up and talk about it.

"I don't know, something different." Sobbing uncontrollably at the end of April 2020 and I feel this so much right now.

Rachel talking about their future together absolutely broke me. It was such a sweet and beautiful plan. 😭😭♥️♥️

I can't stop crying in it's been six years there is somany fellings

For some reason, Lea is just so incredibly beautiful in this scene. What a soul.

I'm so glad this woman has moved on a little. This was horribly tragic and I'm grateful she had the strength to do so. Some don't, I really don't know if I could.

The emotion in her voice is so real 💔

WHY AM I WATCHING THIS I ALWAYS CRY WHEN RACHEL CRIES IVE BEEN WATCHING HER CRY FOR AN HOUR ALREADY!

1:59 😓😓😓😨😭😭😭😭 "He was MY person" its so relatable. I lost my person to suicide aswell...

This wasn’t just Rachel and Will talking about Finn. This was Lea and Matthew talking about Cory.

when she looks at her picture and starts crying its so real 😪😪

This scene, Make You Feel My Love, Carole Burt and Kurt packing Finn's stuff and Santana's If I Die Young always make me cry.

I can't believe it's been four years since he's gone. We love you. You will never be forgotten, Cory💔 07/13/17

It’s been 8 years since he passed, and I still fall apart every time I watch this part of the series. I really applaud their bravery for being able to continue filming specifically about him after he was gone. If I were Lea, I would’ve dropped off the planet and probably never come back to Hollywood.

The part where she said, "he was my person" i felt that. 😔😖✊🏼

*_”he was my person”_* *i use this phrase a lot. i have my person. it’s purely platonic, no matter how much i love her, but she’s definitely my person. she lives for danger, and is chronically ill - with my luck it’s really not that surprising my person isn’t expected to live past her 18th birthday. i cant help but think not too far into the future i’ll be in rachel’s position and have no idea how to go on. i’m already barely keeping my head above the water. but i’ll have hope.* *and to my person: “I lava you, lea-lea. don’t you forget it.” -pancake*

The loss of Corey was a major blow to everyone. Not least to his co stars. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a tribute as you all gave him. In so many scenes. Even now, I watch these clips and I cry. Thank you to you all because you truly marked his life. I can’t imagine how hard it must have been but you built your loss into the show we all love, and you did him proud. It must have been so hard. Thank you. X

Of course watching this makes me bawls my eyes out but what also makes me cry watching this is the fact that Lea did find happiness. She’s married and has a baby on the way. It touches me that she did find something to make her happy.

Title Edit: Glee - “Lea and Matthew talk about Cory” 5x03

One amazing thing is that glee has Cory, they have him singing and acting. They have a visual record of him being talented. Not a lot of people get to have memories recorded like that.

That moment when she opens the memorial... my poor heart.

the saddest part about this whole episode is the fact that none of the actors were acting

2:52 I thought I was going to laugh but I was sorely mistaken. I'm crying now. I didn't even know him personally like them, but I'm crying and I miss him. My heart just broke.

I'm still crying not only he died in the show he died in real life and lea has to mourned this real bad it's so sad how people come and go i hope he is in a happy place and i hope he feels our love r.i.p cory

When she says "He was my person" I died. Because you know it's actually Lea talking about Cory.

2:29. That reaction to seeing Cory's face. TT_TT

The entire episode was gut wrenching.

"he was my person" 😢😢😢

2017 and still sobbing

"Something different" that lien really hit me.

Rip Finn /Cory

LEA'S Crying laugh was so adorable. RIP Cory.

The real ending would have been really great. It's just truly heartwrenching that it never happened.

I am so glad she has moved on and found a different love and is married, I am sure Cory would be the happiest for her

When Rachel says "He was my person" That broke me 😭😭😭

They were amazing together

I miss him sooooo much

Remember when they were just a small little glee group? Crying my eyes out !

dang it, why did I decide to watch this right before school...now I'm bawling my eyes out instead of getting ready :,(

The emotions aren't acting Rachel's isn't talking about Finn she's talking about Cory. It's heartbreaking we all miss you Cory. ❤️

5 years without him... I can't believe it, I miss him so much, I miss Finchel, I miss Monchele.

There was no acting required in this scene it was real

Lea, is definitely heartbroken in this scene. I totally feel her pain every time I see this episode. 😔

I literally cried 😭

It’s been years and I’m still crying over him 😭😭😭

it's been 5 years..i think i'll never get over him.love you and miss you so much quarterback.

Just thinking about how the real ending was supposed to be where Rachel walks in on Finn teaching and says " I'm home!" and then there's a gasp and the end

2019 and this still hurts like he passed yesterday

This truly is the saddest scene in TV-history :'(

My heart broke when she said "he was my person"😭💔

Lea looks so fragile and small in this episode and most of season 5 you can tell by her looks and noticeable weight loss.

2:54 Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith) 1994-2013 "The show must go... all over the place... or something." R.I.P. Cory Monteith

“I would walk though those doors and I would say I’m home! And then we would live happily ever after” This still hurts😭

This scene always makes me cry 😭💔💔

this whole episode made cry 😭😭😭😭 I knew that they weren't talking about Finn but it was all about Corey. no one was acting in this episode they all showed real emotions and it belreaks my heart.

Its already *2019* and I'm still here crying

This breaks my heart for the whole cast I'm sure the emotions were real I never watched this show but I recently started watching it and love it

Now our girl is happily married with a baby on the way. 🥰🥰

I break down into tears everytime she says “he was my person”

“I talk to him a lot I can still see his face & I can hear his voice so clearly. Do you think I’ll forget it? Because I’m afraid that one day I will”💔💔 my heart cries😭I lost my other half due to him being killed🥺I miss him so much

I wish he were still here, she was in love with him, they were engaged...

it's been almost 8 years and i still feel an extreme pain everytime i rewatch this, I miss him so so much

1:59 "He was my person"

The fact that this was the original ending....kills me every time 😭 we love u Cory 💕💕💕

That "he knew" kills me every time 1:43

NO I AM NOT CRYING 😭😭😭😭 its been 3 HEARTBREAKING YEARS

cory, christina, so many young people who didn't deserve that... they were taken away so young

I luv how Matthew was so slow and careful with his words & u can see now sad he was but tried to not get upset for Rachel

It's truly devastating that the ending Rachel described, the one that was supposed to happen for real, never became a reality. I hate that Rachel ended up with Jesse and I so wish we lived in a world where Glee ended the way it should have, with Rachel returning to Lima to be with Finn. He will be forever missed

I can’t watch this episode without crying

I can only imagine how psychologically difficult for them do this especially since it was a real person who died.

This change of heart just now
