"The death of Cory Monteith was surely one of Hollywood&amp;#x27;s darkest moments in 2013; besides leaving behind a legacy of genuine kindness and talent, his passing left a short-term and long-term hole in the stories on Glee. Ryan Murphy and Co. recovered nicely with a beautiful tribute episode at the top of the season; now EW has published some of Murphy&amp;#x27;s remarks from a memorial service for Monteith. In them, Murphy revealed his original plan for the final moments of Glee, which he had already written: &amp;quot;The ending of Glee is something I have never shared with anyone, but I always knew it. I&amp;amp;#8217;ve always relied on it as a source of comfort, a North Star. At the end of season six, Lea [Michele]&amp;amp;#8216;s Rachel was going to have become a big Broadway star, the role she was born to play. Finn was going to have become a teacher, settled down happily in Ohio, at peace with his choice and no longer feeling like a Lima loser. The very last line of dialogue was to be this: Rachel comes back to Ohio, fulfilled and yet not, and walks into Finn&amp;amp;#8217;s glee club. &amp;amp;#8220;What are you doing here?&amp;amp;#8221; he would ask. &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m home,&amp;amp;#8221; she would reply. Fade out. The end.&amp;quot; Murphy&amp;#x27;s sharing of that vision&amp;amp;#8212;when he still has the daunting task of trying to come up with an alternative as poignant&amp;amp;#8212;was a brave and sweet tribute to Monteith, a chance to remember another ending when it comes to his life. What do you think of the original finale idea?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
