She presumably takes vitamin D with the rest of the girls (although she is not seen in the scene) and later performs a high-energy number Halo/Walking on Sunshine.
Brittany taking Quinn's test
Sue splits the Glee Club into two groups. She puts the minorities on her side leaving Will with only five singers (including Brittany) and they perform No Air. While Finn and Quinn are arguing in Spanish class, Brittany tries to steal Quinn's paper to copy her answers, but she angrily grabs it back. When he only gives Rachel and Finn solos, Quinn tells Brittany and Puck that Will obviously doesn't like minorities and they defect to Sue's group, leaving Will with only three singers. She later performs background vocals in Keep Holding On.
Brittany, along with the other Glee Club members, waits to see if the boys will choose Glee or the Football Team and she is happy when she sees Mike enter the music room. She performs background vocals in Bust a Move and, with all the other members, throw slushies at Mr. Schuester at the end of the episode.
The Glee Club raises money by putting on a bake sale in order to get a bus to take Artie to sectionals. Brittany thinks it's a bad idea because she finds recipes confusing. Meanwhile, Mr. Schuester gets the Glee kids to spend several hours a day in wheelchairs in order to make them realize how hard it is for Artie to be in a wheelchair. During these events, it is revealed that Brittany (who within the course of a day, lost her wheelchair) has a sweet and caring friendship with Becky Jackson, a girl who has Down Syndrome. While Quinn, Puck, and Santana look at Becky with disgust, Brittany is oblivious to it and buys her a cupcake from the Glee bake sale. Puck notes that Brittany cheats off of Becky's math papers in school.
Brittany is paired with Santana for the week's ballad assignment. She later performs Lean on Me with New Directions.
Brittany watches the girls from Jane Addams Academy sing Bootylicious while using Hairography. Mr. Schuester calls on Brittany to teach the club the trick of 'Hairography', as she is the only member who can do it. She performs background vocals in Hair/Crazy in Love, Imagine, and True Colors with the Glee Club.
The Glee Club is cast in a local mattress commercial, in which Brittany performs background vocals and several impressive acrobatic stunts in Jump.
Brittany spends a lot of time with Santana. They go on a date with Finn and start talking about how the boys at the school (including Finn, who they ignore throughout most of the night) should stop dating girls like Rachel and start dating popular and prettier girls like themselves. Finn is asked to leave by Santana while the two Cheerios stay at the restaurant with his credit card. Later, they find out that Finn is now finished with Rachel because she is now dating Vocal Adrenaline's Jesse St. James, so they are asked by Sue to spread it around the Glee Club. Brittany performs background vocals in the Beatles classic, Hello, Goodbye.
Mercedes asks Brittany and Santana how they manage to stay so "skinny." They tell her that they drink a protein shake that Sue Sylvester makes up from different ingredients, which Brittany sometimes adds a teaspoon of sand too. They admit that they don't like it, but they would get kicked off the Cheerios if they didn't stay thin. Later, she cuddles with Santana when Kurt sings A House Is Not a Home.
Brittany is only seen briefly, she dances with Artie in his fantasy sequence of Safety Dance.
"You look terrible. I look awesome"
Brittany and the rest of the Cheerios fall into depression and confusion when cheerleading coach Sue refuses to get head. Brittany is even more confused than usual and this results in her begging the unpopular students to help her, and to even wear her Cheerio's outfit backwards and her hair messier. Sue finally gets out of bed and they go on to win Nationals, which restores the CheeriHos to their normal selves. Sue takes her Nationals trophy around to Will, with help from Santana and Brittany, to gloat about her victory. She performs backup vocals in Give up the Funk.
Brittany, along with the others, goes to Will's house to discuss song choices, but instead she tells them that Sue said, "I am going to crush glee club" which lowers their spirits. However, they all go to Regionals and she performs background vocals in Faithfully, Any Way You Want It/Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin', and Don't Stop Believin'. They lose at Regionals resulting in the disbandment of the glee club. As they are in the hospital with Quinn, she is seen looking down at her belly. But as a gift for Mr. Schuester, after all his hard work, they all decide to sing To Sir, With Love. After Sue asks Figgins not to end glee club he decides to keep it for an extra year and the news excites everyone including Brittany and Santana. During Over the Rainbow, Brittany and Santana look at each other and link their pinkies.
In this season, Heather Morris, who plays Brittany Pierce, was upgraded to series regular.
Brittany reveals that she spent her summer lost in the sewers. Under the guidance of Sue, she later accuses Coach Beiste of sexual harassment/inappropriate touching, but at Will's insistence, admits she made it up and that she actually wanted to touch Beiste's breasts. She later walks out of the principals office with a doll which looked like her.
She goes to Carl's office, which she says looks like the room on the space ship where she got probed. When he puts her under to work on her teeth, she enters a vivid Britney fantasy , during which she sings her very first solo in I'm a Slave 4 U (in which she wears several famous Britney Spears costumes, including the infamous diamond bodysuit). The next day, she's back at the dentist's, this time with Santana, insisting to give them both anesthesia (although Santana has perfect teeth), they sing Me Against the Music. After her anesthesia sessions, Brittany appears more confident, claiming she should have all glee club solos in the future; she does get to perform a solo in Toxic.
It is revealed that Brittany is religious and she prays. Showing how caring she really is, she tries to help Kurt Hummel by giving him a book that she wrote in crayon that heart attacks to give to the doctors ("I gave him a card that said Heart Attacks were just from loving too much"). She and Santana also report to Sue about what has happened to Kurt and his dad. She performs back-up vocals in One of Us.

Santana refuses to do a duet with Brittany, saying she made out with her just because Puck is in jail. Brittany is obviously hurt and starts dating Artie to make Santana jealous. While practicing for their duet at her place, Artie wants to break up with Brittany because he realizes he isn't over Tina yet. Brittany suggests that she take his virginity**, and he accepts hesitantly. When a jealous Santana tells Artie that sex doesn't mean nearly as much to Brittany as it does to him, he ends the relationship and pulls them out of the duet competition. However, it appears later that Brittany does care for Artie as she sadly watches him as he passes by her with Finn. Near the end of the scene with Quinn and Sam at Breadstix, she is

Artie realizes that he does want Brittany back so he asks Noah Puckerman for help. They both end up going on a date with Brittany and Santana to Breadstix where Brittany tries unsuccessfully to flirt with Artie, mostly due to the fact Artie couldn't feel her squeeze his leg and also following Puck's advice of brushing her off to get her attention. Brittany and Santana leave with Puck when he ditches Artie due to him paying for the meal. She later performs Start Me Up/Livin' on a Prayer singing minuscule solo.
Young Brittany
Brittany is officially dating Artie. She is invited to Rachel's girl meeting for girls dating football players to stand up to Karofsky. She attends Burt and Carole's wedding and sings backup vocals in Marry You and Just the Way You Are.
At Sectionals, Artie confronts her for committing adultery, and Brittany confesses. While waiting for the curtains to go up, Brittany is seen stretching, and Artie asks her why she did it. Brittany, thinking adultery means being stupid like "a dolt," apologizes for thinking that. Brittany explains that she lost his magic comb after motocross practice and was afraid to face him. Artie then confesses that he found the comb on the floor and was on his way to the trash when he decided to give it to Brittany. Brittany is astonished that he let her use the comb. The couple reconcile, and Brittany dedicates her performance to Artie. During Sectionals, Brittany provides backing vocals in (I've Had) The Time of My Life and teams up with Mike to perform a spectacular dance routine during Valerie.
It is revealed that Brittany still believes in Santa. Artie wants her to keep believing so he and some of the other Glee Club members take her to the mall to see Santa. When it's Brittany's turn, she tells Santa the only thing she wants for Christmas is for Artie to walk. Artie knows it can't happen so he asks Coach Beiste to dress up as Santa to tell Brittany she can't make Artie walk. Disappointed, Brittany tells Artie she doesn't see a reason to believe in Santa anymore because he can't make Artie walk. Artie tells her he is fine, but she still says it's not fair that he can't walk. Artie takes her home and they find a ReWalk for Artie under her Christmas tree. Later, Brittany and Artie go back to the glee club room to tell the rest of the club what happened. She is overjoyed as she watches Artie walk and as a result, regains her holiday cheer.
Brittany appears doing the dancing number California Gurls along with her fellow Cheerios, but later she, along with Santana and Quinn, is forced by Sue to choose between the Cheerios and Glee Club, with the risk of being shot from (and possibly killed by) a giant cannon so Sue can win the cheerleading Regionals competition. At first, she chooses the Cheerios, but when Finn arrives and asks her if it's really worth it to risk her life instead of doing something she loves, she chooses Glee Club and tells Sue that she's quitting the Cheerios. She arrives in time to perform Thriller/Heads Will Roll and supports the football team along with the other girls.

To Rachel's dismay, Brittany gets the credit for the style. Rachel is furious and confronts her, but Brittany tells her the truth about what everyone thinks about her and what she thinks of her before walking away. Brittany also assists Lauren for her first solo I Know What Boys Like, dancing along with Tina.

Holly addresses this and breaks into song with the number Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah) while Brittany and Santana sing and dance back up for her. Later, while Brittany stays over at Santana's house, she asks her about what their relationship with each other means and is wondering if they should talk to Holly about it. It is revealed that Brittany and Santana are still sleeping together despite Brittany being in a relationship with Artie, though Brittany is not aware she is cheating as Santana convinces her that you can't cheat on a boy with a girl. Santana eventually agrees to talk to Holly about their relationship, and Brittany explains she doesn't know how she feels about it because Santana never seems to want to talk about it. Holly advises them to get it out in song and Santana has a song already chosen for the event, but she needs Holly's help.

Brainiac Brittany
It is revealed that Brittany is a member of the Brainiacs, McKinley's academic decathlon team. She was recruited because they didn't have enough members, and they convinced Brittany to join by bribing her with Dots. In the competition, she single-handedly brought the team back from a 450-point deficit thanks to her extensive knowledge of cat diseases. Brittany is sad when Santana tells them Sunshine is not coming to the benefit. The Brainiacs thought they wouldn't be able to go to the finals, but then Sandy Ryerson had a change of heart and paid for the trip to Detroit. At the Academic Decathlon finals in Detroit they are tying 124 points each and the last question is about Hermaphrodite Nazi Sympathizers, which they all knew about because that was the same topic Holly Holiday taught.

On Brittany's new internet gossip talk show called Fondue for Two, she claims that Santana is playing for another team. When the school paper gets a hold of this information and starts discussing Santana's sexuality, Santana gets angry at Brittany. Brittany claims that, when she said Santana 'plays for another team', she meant that she used to be on the Cheerios and is now in New Directions, which angered Santana more that she thought Brittany couldn't have thought of any other way to say that. Later, Artie confronts Brittany, asking her if she is cheating on him with Santana. Brittany denies it, but then says that it wouldn't be cheating since Santana is a girl, an allusion to what Santana said in the episode Sexy. Artie tells Brittany that Santana is manipulating her and accuses Santana of purposely doing it because she knows he can't handle that someone else can provide better for Brittany. Brittany defends Santana and Artie, frustrated and angry, calls Brittany stupid. Brittany cries, telling him that he was the only person in their school who had never called her that, and runs off.
Later, Brittany is seen filming another episode of Fondue for Two. It is revealed that Santana never showed up for the interview, only texting Brittany with the words "I can't" so Brittany interviews her cat, Lord Tubbington. When Brittany is seen in school the next day, Santana is being interviewed by Jacob Ben Israel about her relationship with Karofsky, in which Santana confirms that they are 'soul mates' while looking at Brittany, who is clearly upset by Santana's comments.
Artie is set on getting Brittany's forgiveness and taking her to prom. He finds her in cooking class and sings Isn't She Lovely to her, which Brittany is annoyed by at first, but ends up enjoying by the end of the song, despite her efforts to avoid Artie during the number.

Brittany says that she feels like she has "failed her unicorn" but Santana restores her confidence by telling her "He doesn't deserve to have you as his campaign manager. You're amazing.

Towards the end of the episode Kurt shows Brittany that he is now putting the unicorn posters up, but Brittany tells him that she is now running for class president also, because she is a unicorn too.

Santana replies that she likes college and she likes that she is close to her. Then they share a quick kiss. Brittany starts to yawn and Santana asks if she is okay. She says that she was up late the night before reading Desecration: Antichrist Takes the Throne (Left Behind No. 9). Santana mentions how intense those books are and asks what teacher is making her read it. Brittany replies that it is a club, not a class and she invites Santana to one of the club's meetings.

Rachel opens it and is surprised to see a smiling Brittany. Everybody is very excited to see her, but Brittany misses Santana and asks about her. It is then revealed that Santana is shooting another Yeast-I-Stat commercial. Brittany tells her she didn't know, because she gave her cell phone up after breaking up with Kiki. Brittany joins Mercedes on her mall tour as a back-up dancer, and performs in Shakin' My Head.
Later, Brittany takes part in a little intervention for Mercedes, together with Rachel and Kurt. They ask her if she's going to break up with Sam before the tour, because they are both going to be tempted a lot the next few months apart. Later that week, Brittany and Blaine are sitting down with Mary Halloran, who's writing Rachel's pilot. When everybody thinks Mary is weird, Brittany is the only one who thinks she is amazing.
A character based off of Brittany, called Nittany, appears in Rachel's TV show. She brings in cats to help Rachel with her audition.
Rachel calls Brittany, and the rest of the alumni to come and help with Glee club recruitment. She is seen sitting in the choir room and performs in Take On Me with the alumni. Brittany performs Problem with Santana, Quinn, and Artie to try and get recruits from the cheerios. After the performance, Kitty confronts them and says that Rachel didn't even know her name. Brittany says she knows her name, it's Quinn.
Later, she gives Kurt advice to get Blaine back. He should burn all his clothes and start dressing like a normal person and follow his life's ambition to become the best Barbara Bush impersonator. Brittany and the rest of the alumni hunt down Roderick Meeks to try and recruit him.
Brittany sings and dances back up for Roderick in Mustang Sally and sings with Santana in Home.
Brittany is seen sitting next to Santana when Rachel and Kurt announce the first assignment for the glee club. Brittany and Santana are cuddling in Brittany's bedroom later that day. They discuss their song selection for the assignment. Santana suggests they mash-up Hand in my Pocket and I Feel the Earth Move while Britt wants to do You Oughta Know. Santana explains they need to mash-up songs from each album, and Brittany says she likes to think out of the box. She finally agrees with Santana and the two of them talks about their future together. Santana wants them to live in New York City and go to college together.
The next day, in the choir room, they perform Hand in My Pocket/I Feel the Earth Move to the glee club. After the performance, Santana ask Brittany to sit down and she proposes to her; Brittany happily accepts. Everyone seems happy for them until Kurt objects, saying they are all too young to be getting married. Tina defends them and shows her support for the engagement, and everyone congratulates them.
Later, Kurt apologize to Brittany and she tells him that Blaine and Karofsky have moved in together. She knows this because they asked her to decorate their new apartment. Brittany advises Kurt to try and move on from Blaine. She watches the So Far Away performance, and when Becky runs away, she follows her. When Tina says that she wishes she had a guy who looks at her the way he looks at Becky, Brittany jokingly quips that she can't hear Tina's voice because she blocked it out because everything she said is depressing and always about her, a statement Tina seems to take offense by. Brittany is last seen in the auditorium performing You Learn/You've Got a Friend with the rest of the alumni.
She brings Artie to her bedroom and tells him that she wants to hire him as her wedding planner. She tells him things that remind her of Santana and when she says Heaven, he thinks that a good idea. This leads into Wishin' And Hoping. After she says that they should keep Heaven on the list but also consider the underworld.

At the end of the song she walks up to Santana and holds her hand and kisses her on the cheek. Alma is confused and asks if they know each other. Brittany tells her that she is her fiancée, and Alma is upset that Brittany tricked her. Santana says that Brittany is the love of her life and she wants to share that with her Abuela, but Alma doesn't want to go to the wedding because it just isn't right. Brittany gets defense and says that the increase in support for gay marriage has a lot to do with uptight bitch’s dying. Alma gets mad and leaves the auditorium.
Brittany is seen in some pictures that Rachel has on the wall of her bedroom.
The episode opens with Brittany, Santana, their moms, and Artie entering a barn in rural northeast Indiana. Whitney explains that it was the barn Brittany was born in and it would be fun for Santana and her to get married in it. Whitney tells the story of how Brittany was born, including a cow that licked newborn Brittany clean and how she was swaddled in a Mr. Submarine wrapper. Brittany seems embarrassed and confused throughout the story. Santana tells her that she thinks it is the perfect place to get married.
Kurt, Tina, Sam, Mason, Madison, and Jane help Brittany get the barn ready for the wedding. She is having pre-wedding jitters and Kurt explains that it is normal and everything will be fine. Brittany asks how Kurt copped with wedding planning and he says that he didn't have to because his engagement was called off. He volunteers Burt to officiate the wedding and after some confusion on who that is, Brittany happily agrees.
Before the wedding Brittany is still freaking out over having bad luck. She sends Mercedes to find a spider to wear on her dress, Tina to get wine glasses to smash, and Rachel to find a lizard to cross her path. All of these things are supposed to bring Brittany good luck. Then, Santana enters and tells her that she is the most beautiful bride and that she looks amazing. Brittany panics even more and covers herself and pushes Santana out saying that she can’t see her before the wedding. She accuses Santana of sabotaging it. Santana puts her foot down and tells Brittany what started the whole superstition. She says she can’t go an hour without seeing her and that they make their own luck. Santana says that it is good luck to kiss the bride before the ceremony and the two share an intimate kiss. Then Sue walks in and Santana asks her what the hell she is doing there. Santana is really mad and tells Sue to get out. Sue has convinced Alma to come to the wedding using “reverse Suecology.” Brittany looks on in happiness as Santana and Alma reconnect and then joins in on their hug.
Later, Sue brings Kurt and Blaine to Brittany who has manikins of the boys in tuxes. She says the whole time she was planning the wedding she couldn't help but think of them. She looked up to them in high school as a couple and they showed her that there is a place for her and Santana as well. When they called off their wedding it broke her heart and she wants her dream back. Sue and Brittany want Kurt and Blaine to get married. Brittany even convinced Santana to agree to the double wedding.

The Rise and Fall of Sue Sylvester
Brittany is mentioned by Sue Sylvester when she says that Quinn, Brittany, and Santana Lopez are one of her most successful Cheerios during an interview with Geraldo Rivera. "I wished your interviewed some of my more successful Cheerios. Like Quinn Fabray, currently enrolled at Yale, Brittany S. Pierce, math prodigy M.I.T., Santana Lopez was a Broadway understudy and now could have a very promising career as a high class prostitute". Geraldo then tells her that they did reach out to all three of them and they declined to comment, leaving Sue seemingly speechless.
Brittany is seen via flashback during the delivery of different championships trophies.
Brittany comes to the auditorium with Santana at the end of the episode, they perform backing vocals for I Lived with the rest of the Glee Cast.Personality
As a Cheerio, Brittany could be expected to come across as cruel, but she is generally a kind, generous, and caring person, although exceptionally naive and innocent to the point of being considered stupid, though she is very sensitive to this word, such as when she stood up for herself after Finn called her stupid, considering it as 'mean' and 'bullying.'
Brittany in I Say a Little Prayer Showmance.
Although at the start of the series she demonstrated signs of bullying, in truth, any form of cruelty tends to spawn from the influences of her more mean-spirited friends, such as Santana and for a time, Quinn, though often she's largely unaware of what she's really doing. In fact, her default personality and behavior, as previously mentioned, is far more kind and sympathetic, as demonstrated by her friendship with Becky, a girl with Down Syndrome. Brittany tends to treat Becky with respect and kindness, although some claim it's only because Becky lets her cheat in class. While proudly promiscuous, Brittany has an innocent and fragile demeanor. She depends on the guidance of others, most notably her best friend, Santana, to the point that during the summer holidays, she gets lost in the sewers on the way back from motocross practice. She has an aversion to violence, particularly between her friends.
Brittany
As the ultimate "dumb blonde," Brittany speaks without any mental filter, often resulting in unexpected statements, such as, "I'm pretty sure my cat's reading my diary." She's even been known to weave up sentences that have little to no relation or relevance to each other. In "Britney 2.0," she even performed, what she thought was a voice-over in her head at the start of the episode, not realizing that she was actually expressing the words out loud until Blaine pointed it out for her. She also expresses a lack of basic knowledge and common sense. This often results in her doing strange things such as attempting to put the toilet paper back on the rolls. She is, however, aware of her lack of intelligence as evidenced in Duets where she calls Puck dumb while laughing and saying, "And that's coming from me!" Brittany is an accomplished dancer and often helps to choreograph some of New Directions' routines. She has some childish characteristics such as believing in Santa with all her heart and is extremely gullible as evidenced when Artie convinced her that his comb was magical and would help the glee club when competing. Her kindness and childlike innocence can often be used against her, such as when she almost put her life on the line when Sue convinced her to launch herself out of a human cannon to help "mama cannon" support her family during a Cheerleading competition.
Her best friend is Santana who is noticeably protective of her and only Santana understands her childish actions. Brittany is the only bisexual character on the show. She can be quite competitive as she stated in Makeover to Sam that she really wants to win.
Even though she is generally a very kind and sweet girl, Brittany will become angry at people who call her stupid. Brittany does not tolerate being bullied by other people. When Finn called her an idiot in Pot o' Gold she stood up for herself, telling Finn that it was mean and bullying and that she wouldn't accept it. She has revealed that everyone in school at one time or another had called her stupid or an idiot. She also claims that because Finn is one of the leaders of New Directions, which makes his insult even worse.
Brittany appears to still believe in fictional and imaginary people. She still believes that Santa Claus is an actual person who can grant any wish. She also believes that Irish people are leprechauns who cannot be seen by anyone except for her, and have the power to grant three wishes. By the end of Pot o' Gold, Brittany appears to have realized that leprechauns are only fictional people.
Brittana
Brittany doesn't like seeing people sad and often shows sympathy towards people, especially her best friend Santana. This is shown in Silly Love Songs when Santana cries because the Glee club ganged up on her and Brittany comforts her. This is also shown in Blame It on the Alcohol when Santana cries because Mr. Schue says that around 400 people die a year from alcohol poisoning, and Brittany gives her a hug to calm her down. The same happens, in Prom Queen when Santana is upset about losing Prom Queen. Brittany also helps Santana cheering up Quinn in New York when Quinn is still upset about her break-up with Finn. Brittany looks sympathetic towards Tina when she has a very big break down in Silly Love Songs and also in A Night of Neglect when Tina cries after getting heckled off stage, and she comforts Sugar in Girls (and Boys) on Film when she's sad about Mr. Schue not going to pick a winner for the mash-up competition.
Sexuality
Brittany is notorious for being exceedingly promiscuous at McKinley High, having slept with many males and apparently females, though the only known female she has slept with is Santana as revealed in the episode Sectionals. In Bad Reputation, she claims to have made out with everyone in the school. She aims to hook up with as many people as she can, stating that she's made out with boys, girls, and one of the school's male janitors, as claimed in Bad Reputation, even inviting Kurt to 'tap this' in Laryngitis. While Brittany has only dated one girl, Santana, she has shown interest in other females in several episodes, such as in Audition where she claimed she wanted to touch Coach Beiste's boobs. She also was seen slow dancing with a girl at prom during Jar of Hearts in the episode Prom Queen.
Brit and Santana
The episode Britney/Brittany gave many hints about her sexuality, with being bisexual with Brittany having fantasies with her acting sexually during musical numbers towards both Carl Howell and Santana Lopez. During the episode, she also calls Britney Spears 'really hot' and gets overly excited when Rachel dresses up in Britney Spears' Baby One More Time outfit.
In Duets, Brittany and Santana are seen in bed together after making out with Santana kissing Brittany's neck. When Brittany says they should sing a duet in glee club of Melissa Etheridge's Come To My Window, Santana gets defensive and rejects Brittany, causing conflict between them. Brittany begins dating Artie Abrams to make Santana jealous while also denying Santana sex. However, after Brittany makes a catty remark towards Santana, she says, "I'm mad at you, but you're still so hot."
Her sexuality was never directly addressed until Sexy, where it is revealed that Brittany is still sleeping with Santana despite being attached to Artie. Brittany prompts Santana to have a conversation about their relationship, which Santana rejects. Eventually, though, the two consult Holly Holiday about their relationship. When Holly asks whether either of them thinks they may be a lesbian, Brittany states that she doesn't know because Santana refuses to talk about it. Later, when Santana admits she's in love with Brittany, Brittany tells her that she loves her too, but is also in love with Artie. In Born This Way, Brittany claims she 'thinks she's bi-curious', but as she is later seen trying to initiate a romantic relationship with Santana, it is made obvious that her feelings go deeper than curiosity. Brittany also urges Santana to come out of the closet in the following episodes.
In New York, when Santana asks about her relationship with Brittany, Brittany tells her that she loves Santana more than she has ever loved anyone before.
In I Am Unicorn, Brittany decides she wants to manage Kurt's campaign for class president, with the idea that students should celebrate being "unicorns," meaning that they're special and not afraid to show it. Eventually, with inspiration from Santana, Brittany decides to run for president herself, telling Kurt that she is a unicorn as well—or "maybe a bicorn," and thus confirming Brittany's bisexuality.
In Pot o' Gold, Santana and Brittany are seen out for dinner at Breadstix. Santana asks if they're on a date, and Brittany claims she thought that they were dating—since both Brittany and Santana are single, Brittany says she wanted to "mingle." Santana starts crying, and when Brittany asks why, Santana tells her that's she's just really happy. At the end of the scene, Santana tells Brittany, "I wish you'd hold my hand." Brittany takes her hand, and they both look happy, until Santana gets nervous and hides their joined hands under a napkin.
In Heart, Santana and Brittany are publicly dating. In the episode, the two share their first freely public on screen kisses (one in the hallway, and one at Breadstix during Cherish/Cherish). Apparently they have kissed in public before since Principal Figgins tells them that they've had multiple complaints about their PDA from somebody for religious reasons. They are now a fully out couple; the rest of Glee Club and the school at large knows their relationship.
In Prom-asaurus, Brittany is up for prom king (causing Sue to comment when reading her name, "That's weird"). She doesn't win, only receiving four votes; Santana refuses to accept winning prom queen if Brittany isn't her king.
Relationships
- Main article: Brittany-Santana Relationship (Brittana)
In Duets, they are seen on Brittany's bed. Santana is laying on Brittany kissing her neck, while Brittany rubs her back. Brittany says they should sing a duet together and says they could do "Come to My Window" by Melissa Etheridge, But Santana doesn't accept, and says that she's only with Brittany because Puck is in juvie. Brittany then gets upset and starts dating Artie to make Santana jealous. In Sexy, Santana confesses to Brittany that she loves her and wants to be with only her. Brittany tells Santana that she loves her too, but has feelings for Artie as well and doesn't want to hurt him because it wouldn't be right. Brittany is seen supporting Santana in several situations. In Rumours, Santana sings Songbird with only the two of them in the room. Brittany wants her to come on Fondue for Two, so she can tell Santana how she feels, and then ask her to prom. Santana agrees. However, Santana doesn't show for the Fondue for Two episode. Afterwards, Jacob grills Santana about her relationship with Karofsky, as Brittany sadly watches. In Born This Way, Brittany tries to help Santana embrace her lesbian identity and prints her a misspelled T-shirt reading "Lebanese," that was supposed to read "Lesbian." Santana refuses to join in with the Gaga performance, but does wear the T-shirt. In New York, Brittany tells Santana that she loves her more than anyone in the world.
During Season Three, their relationship is further developed, starting with Pot o' Gold, where they're on a date at Breadstix and it is revealed that they are dating. In Heart, they have many demonstrations of affection and love throughout the episode. Brittany meets Santana by her locker with her laptop and shows the playlist she's made for her for Valentine's Day. Santana smiles at the gesture in adoration as the playlist contains a list of songs Brittany dedicates every time they spend their moments together and every time she thinks about her. The playlist also shows a picture of the cuddled up wrapped around in a love heart shape. They went to the Valentine's dance together and they kissed twice: at the lockers and at Breadstix. In Saturday Night Glee-ver, Brittany helps Santana finding a college in Louisville, where Santana ends up going after graduating. In Goodbye, while having Dinner with Santana and Santana's mom, Brittany told them she was not graduating, leaving Santana boring. They both look lovingly towards each other and very commonly show signs of affection such as hugging, holding hands, or cuddling. They usually share glances and happy smiles in every episode and are always seen together. Their relationship shows a lot of sweetness and love and even though they haven't talked much throughout the season on-screen you can see how much they love and care for each other through all their little signs of affection.
Season Four is a breakpoint in their relationship. In Britney 2.0, she has a breakdown and one of the reasons of it is that Santana left and she misses her so much since Santana is also her girlfriend and best friend and no one understands Brittany better than her. They break up in The Break-Up due to the long distance between them since Santana went to college, but Brittany is still in high school. In Glease, they reunite, Brittany says that she misses her and Santana confesses he only accepted the role in the musical, so she could see Brittany again. Both still seem sensitive. In Diva, Brittany gives Santana courage to follow her dreams and go to NYC. In All or Nothing, after knowing about Brittany's weird new behavior, Santana comes back to help her, showing how much they still care about each other and she tells her about MIT and at the end of the episode, Brittany says goodbye to Santana and the rest of her friends and how much she will miss them all.
In 100, Santana expresses her discomfort about the new, math-oriented way Brittany is acting. She convinces Brittany to perform Toxic with the Unholy Trinity and Valerie as a duet. Towards the end of the episode, Brittany admits to still wanting to be with Santana and kisses her. In New Directions, Brittany attempts to woo Santana with lilies and convince her to run away with her to Lesbos Island. Santana declines the offer. Later, after Brittany's official graduation, Santana finds her in the bathroom. She asks if Brittany will go home with her to New York after a vaction to Lesbos and Hawaii. Brittany says yes, they kiss and hug, and are presumably dating again.
In the Season Six episode Jagged Little Tapestry, Santana asks Brittany to marry her and she accepts, making them engaged. In episode A Wedding they got married.
