"Transitioning" is the seventh episode of the sixth season of the American musical television series Glee, and the 115th overall. The episode was written by Matthew Hodgson, directed by Dante Di Loreto, and first aired on February 13, 2015 on Fox in the United States.
The episode takes place as Will Schuester has problems with the methods of Vocal Adrenaline, and he attempts to teach them some respect. Rachel Berry must deal with her childhood home being sold, and Coach Beiste makes a difficult return to McKinley High to begin life as a man.
Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) and his wife Emma (Jayma Mays) discover that Vocal Adrenaline, led by Clint (Max George), have thrown eggs at Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) and Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss), so he makes a lesson about tolerance and brings in Wade "Unique" Adams (Alex Newell) to help, but Clint and the other members do not listen. Coach Shannon Beiste (Dot-Marie Jones) returns from sex reassignment surgery and is now named Sheldon Beiste. Principal Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) and Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet) welcome him back, as Sue promises there will be no issues at the school with Beiste's new appearance including standing up against any bullying. Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) tells Sam that her childhood home has been sold by her fathers, and she is distressed over this, so Sam asks Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer), Mercedes Jones (Amber Riley), Artie Abrams (Kevin McHale), Kitty Wilde (Becca Tobin), and Blaine to help. Beiste's car is vandalized by Vocal Adrenaline, and Will is mad. Rachel and Kurt announce the lesson for New Directions is "transitioning", as members Spencer Porter (Marshall Williams), Jane Hayward (Samantha Marie Ware), Mason McCarthy (Billy Lewis Jr) and Madison McCarthy (Laura Dreyfuss) are all invited to a party to bid farewell to Rachel's home, and there they must sing duets. Mercedes is paired with Roderick (Noah Guthrie) and Kurt cheats his way into a duet with Blaine. Sam and Spencer want to take physical action against Vocal Adrenaline but Beiste stops them. Will calls out Vocal Adrenaline for their actions, but Clint's winner-take-all attitude causes Will to drop him from the team. Will and Emma discuss Will's problems with coaching Vocal Adrenaline.
