"Glease" is the sixth episode of the fourth season of the American musical television series Glee, and the seventy-second episode overall. It aired on Fox in the United States on November 15, 2012, and features the McKinley High production of the musical Grease, and the return of special guest star Kate Hudson as Cassandra July.

With the McKinley production of Grease approaching, Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) names Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith) as interim director of New Directions during his sabbatical in Washington, D.C. Cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) opposes, citing Finn's age and lack of qualifications, but Principal Figgins (Iqbal Theba) agrees, which angers Sue. Finn later apologizes to Sue for the insensitive comment he made about her daughter, but she rejects his apologies and declares her truce with the glee club to be over. In order to sabotage the play, Sue reserves the school auditorium for the Cheerios, preventing New Directions from practicing there. Forced to find a new rehearsal venue, he invites the male glee club members to rehearse at Burt Hummel's auto repair shop, where Ryder Lynn (Blake Jenner) and Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet) lead them in a rendition of "Greased Lightnin'".

In New York City, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) tells her friend Brody Weston (Dean Geyer) that she has landed an audition for an off-Broadway production. Though dance instructor Cassandra July (Kate Hudson) attempts to dissuade her, Rachel remains determined and asks Cassandra to audition with her. Later, Rachel and Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer) discuss whether or not to return to Lima to support their friends in the musical in the wake of their recent breakups with Finn and Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss), respectively. Overhearing their discussion, Cassandra convinces them to go and gives her frequent flyer miles to them.
