As Glee celebrates 100 episodes, the endgame is rapidly approaching.

The Fox musical heads home from L.A. for this week's 100th episode after New Directions' second-place finish at Nationals to pay tribute to the glee club that helped its members -- past and present -- find themselves.

With Sue (Jane Lynch) poised to end New Directions once and for all, current and former members of Mr. Schue's (Matthew Morrison) glee club will return to the choir room to say farewell. Morrison told The Hollywood Reporter during a visit to the show's Hollywood set for the 100th episode celebration that the hour is bittersweet.

"[New Directions] came in second place at Nationals, and the deal was we had to come in first. It's the end of the glee club, which is an end of an era. I still remember the first scene we ever shot for Glee for the pilot. It was me and Cory Monteith and it was a scene where I accused him of having weed in his locker. Doing 'Don't Stop Believin' ' here today and he's not here, that's a full-circle moment. That saying is so true: The show must go on -- and we've really banded together. It's been tough but it's been real."

THR hit the Glee set and quizzed the cast to find out the one thing they'd like to see for their onscreen counterparts before the Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk dramedy heads for New York and bids farewell after next year's sixth and final season.

Lynch: The actress, who also hosts NBC's Hollywood Game Night, wants the snarky McKinley High principal to get serious. "I'd love to have her do something serious in the way the kids do, where she sings a song because she can find no other way to express herself than in song. Sue hasn't had one of those."

Morrison: The original castmember says Glee has already featured the one thing at the top of his bucket list. " 'Make 'Em Laugh' was my bucket list. Getting to do some classic songs like Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly did was a dream come true. If I could have written a show for myself, this would have been it. I've gotten to use all the stuff I've been training my whole life to do. It's been amazing."

Lea Michele (Rachel): The actress, in a nod to the show's demanding production schedule, laughed at the thought of having an easier go of filming. "I'd like to do a whole episode in bed, where Rachel is sick and has to lay in bed in comfy clothes for an entire episode."
