Trio

After multiple attempts of conceiving a child, Emma tells Will that she is pregnant the week before Nationals. Will has doubts but Emma says that she has had her pregnancy confirmed by her doctor.

New Directions

The New Directions alumni and members (along with Sue and Holly) film a video for Daniel to tell him how amazing his father has been and how he has changed many of their lives, and that Will will love him with the same amount of love and devotion as he had for them, quoted by Sue, "no matter how talentless, misshapen, ugly, miserable or sexually ambiguous he is". After the video, the glee club perform their final number, Don't Stop Believin'.

Opening Night

He is born. Emma calls Will to tell him that her water broke, prompting him to immediately fly back from New York and make it just in time to see the baby born. Afterwards, Will calls his former students to tell them that they have named the baby "Daniel Finn Schuester," the middle name derived from the late Finn Hudson. S6=
