Help! by The Beatles is featured in Love, Love, Love, the first episode of Season Five. It is sung by Blaine and Sam with the New Directions, Vocal Adrenaline, and the Dalton Academy Warblers.
Blaine announces to the Glee Club that he plans to propose to Kurt. The New Directions are dubious, with the exception of Sam, who encourages the move, and is disappointed with his friends for not being supportive. Blaine calms him down and reveals that he needs help from not only the New Directions, but also from Vocal Adrenaline, the Dalton Academy Warblers, and the Haverbrook School for the Deaf.
Blaine tells them he wants the proposal to be a cultural statement, to encourage love and gay marriage, and to show that love can unite everyone, even rivalling show choirs. Artie seems to agree, but feels that Blaine is too young. This hits a fuse, and the performance begins. Blaine runs around the room, asking each member for "help" as he sings. Finally, the New Directions give in and together, they run from school to school to ask for help.
First, the Glee Club visit Vocal Adrenaline during their private rehearsals, then the Haverbrook School for the Deaf, and lastly, Dalton Academy. At the end of the performance, all the clubs are gathered at the academy, as Blaine reveals his intentions. All the clubs agree to help Blaine.
