I Don't Know How to Love Him from Jesus Christ Superstar is featured in Sadie Hawkins, the eleventh episode of Season Four. It is sung by Tina, who is covering Helen Reddy's version.

Due to the New Directions not being able to rehearse or sing in the choir room after their loss at Sectionals, Beiste allows Finn to let the New Directions use the Boys Locker Room for a short period of time. Tina thinks that it would be a good idea to sing a solo to invite a specific boy to the Sadie Hawkins dance. Finn asks her to hurry before Coach Beiste closes the locker room.

She sings, and it intercuts to scenes with her looking at Blaine, writing "Blaine + Tina = Forever/Blatina" on her notebook, a cafeteria scene and her staring at Blaine's bottom. As the song comes to an end, Tina walks towards Blaine and everyone exchanges awkward expressions, especially Blaine. When Tina finishes the solo, she asks Blaine to the Sadie Hawkins dance. In response, he awkwardly declines, making the scene extremely uncomfortable for Tina. The Titans then come into the locker room.

It is later revealed that Tina is very humiliated by the experience, and that Blaine said no because he has a crush on Sam. Despite this, they go to the dance as best friends.

Tina:
I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days, when I've seen myself,
I seem like someone else
I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moves me
He's a man. He's just a man
And I've had so many men before,
In very many ways,
He's just one more.

Should I bring him down?
Should I scream and shout?
Should I speak of love,
Let my feelings out?
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about?

Don't you think it's rather funny,
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool,
Running every show
He scares me so

I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about?
What's it all about?
Yet, if he said he loved me,
I'd be lost. I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head. I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
He scares me so
Ooh, I want him so
I love him so
