"Homecoming" is the second episode of the sixth season of the American musical television series Glee, and the 110th overall. The episode was written by series co-creator Ryan Murphy, directed by executive producer Bradley Buecker, and first aired on January 9, 2015 on Fox in the United States along with the previous episode, "Loser Like Me", as a special two-hour premiere.

The episode takes place in the days surrounding the homecoming at McKinley High, as Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) attempts to revive New Directions at McKinley with the help of Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer), but Principal Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) continues to stand in her way. Rachel decides to bring back former New Directions members in an attempt to recruit new talent. Meanwhile, the first-ever female to attend Dalton Academy attempts to break into the Warblers.

Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss), now coach of the Dalton Academy Warblers, meets the first-ever female student to attend Dalton, Jane Hayward (Samantha Marie Ware), who wants to audition to be a Warbler. Blaine, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), now coach of New Directions being aided by Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer), their friend Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet), and Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison), now coach of Vocal Adrenaline, agree to not sabotage any of the other's efforts in show choir. As Rachel searches for new talent, she brings in former New Directions members Puck (Mark Salling), Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron), Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera), Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley), Brittany Pierce (Heather Morris), Artie Abrams (Kevin McHale), and Tina Cohen-Chang (Jenna Ushkowitz) for assistance.
