She decides that she and Dave will be "beards" (using each other as cover to appear heterosexual). She says that this will mean they will "Win Prom King and Queen and rule the school".

Later, Jacob asks Santana about the vicious rumor left on their website about her and Karofsky having sex in the back seat of a car parked at the cemetery. After happily refusing to comment, Jacob asks if she would like to make a comment on the fact that he looked up the IP address of the person who posted that rumor, which turned out to be her. Santana states that her computer was stolen, and that her and Dave are going strong and are very excited about the prom king and queen campaign. Jacob finally asks is she in love with Dave, and are they "soulmates", so to speak, which she agrees to.

She is later kicked out of New Directions by Mr. Schuester, who blames her for setting a purple piano on fire (the Cheerios poured lighter fluid on it and it caught on fire when Quinn flicked her cigarette onto it; according to Santana it was an act of political protest) and criticizes her loyalties to the club, telling her to come back when she can be as loyal as the rest of the club.

Santana's abuela tells her to leave and to never return, and that secrets are called secrets for a reason. She says that the sin is not in the act, but in the scandal of talking about it, and that Santana had no right to make her feel uncomfortable. Santana is crushed by her abuela's rejection and bursts into tears.
Later, in glee club, Santana is to close this week's assignment and she says she has chosen a song that "gives her strength and gets her through". She sings Constant Craving, with Shelby and Kurt and Rachel joining in as all four characters deal with their struggles.
In Hold on to Sixteen, after hearing that Sam has returned to McKinley, Santana walks into the choir room, revealing her book of insults, in which she has written down some insults for Sam. Later, at sectionals, she performs Survivor/I Will Survive along with The Troubletones, earning second place, New Directions earning first. After sectionals, Quinn tells Santana, Brittany and Mercedes that The Troubletones can compete in at least one competition if they come back, Santana and Brittany are holding hands while she is saying this. She later joins in for the New Direction's victory song, We Are Young.
In Yes/No, Santana is seen with the rest of the New Directions girls singing Summer Nights. She is later seen singing The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and remembers the first time she met Brittany. During Without Youshe and Brittany and seen holding hands and following the song she makes a remark about the assignment "Not being about Rachel Berry." Towards the end of the episode she is seen singing lead with Rachel in We Found Love.
At the start of Michael, Santana is seen with Brittany and Mercedes discussing how the only reason the New Directions won Sectionals is because Tickles The Clown was high. She is also seen in the performance of Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'. Later, at the Lima Bean, Santana, along with Blaine, Kurt, Rachel and Artie are all discussing Michael Jackson memories when Sebastian turns up and informs them the Warblers are doing Michael at Regionals. Santana begins to get angry, but is quickly struck down by Sebastian. Also, Santana and Blaine are seen waiting in the parking lot for the Warblers before the performance of Bad. Afterwards in the episode, Santana is seen walking past a classroom to find Kurt when he tells her he agrees with Artie that he refuses to take torment from Sebastian. Santana is later seen when she goes to Dalton to confront the Warblers and find out what Sebastian put in the slushie. This leads to a performance of Smooth Criminal. Afterwards, Sebastian tells her he put rock salt in the slushy, then he slushies her. Santana Slushied by Sebastian.
At the end of the episode, Santana tells Sebastian in front of all the New Directions and Warblers that she could call the cops or the Dalton headmaster and have him possibly expelled or arrested for what he did to Blaine. Kurt, however, gives the tape to Sebastian. He states that he would rather enjoy beating him at Regionals than doing it this way.
In The Spanish Teacher Santana is seen gazing vacantly along with all the rest of Mr. Schue's Spanish class at the performance of La Cucaracha. Also, Santana asks David Martinez to show off his singing skills to which he sings Sexy and I Know It. Later in the episode, Sue is seen accusing Santana of complaining to Figgins about her teaching skills. The following day, Santana is seen with David performing La Isla Bonita. She then watched Will's performance of A Little Less Conversation and hates it. Will then realizes that Santana complained to Figgins about his teaching and asks her why. It is revealed that Will only became a Spanish teacher because it was the only available teaching position at the time. Santana says that he doesn't have passion for Spanish like he does for glee club.
In Heart, Santana is seen with Brittany most of the episode. At the beginning you can see her hugging/dancing with Brittany at the Glee Club while Sugar tells them about her party. Later on, while standing at her locker she is surprised by Brittany, who is willing to give her her Valentine's Day present. At first Santana looks confused because she thinks her girlfriend is about to give her her laptop, but she then explains to her that she made her a playlist with all the songs she hears in her head when she's with her or thinking about her. Santana looks really happy and thanks her, and just when they're about to kiss, Principal Figgins calls them "teen lesbians" and makes them go to his office to tell them that they can´t express PDA because someone complained for religious reasons.
Santana leaves the room furious and is later seen again at the Glee Club with the rest on the ND members before listening to Artie sing Let Me Love You. She seemed to enjoy the song. She is later seen with Rachel telling her that she supports her decision of marrying Finn and being unhappy with him for the rest of her life, and after listening to The God Squad singing Stereo Hearts she asks them to sing a song to Brittany.
At Breadstix, Santana is sitting with Brittany feeding her chocolates when Sugar announces that The God Squad is about to sing. Joe tells her that after praying and thinking about it, they will perform Cherish/Cherish for Brittany and assures Santana that love is love. Santana is really happy to see Brittany enjoying the performance and in the end they share a sweet kiss. At the end of the episode she enjoys the performance of Love Shack dancing with her friends.
In On My Way, she appears along with Kurt, Blaine and Brittany when they confront Sebastian at the Lima Bean about his foul play. She also appears in the auditorium, the glee club are asked by Will about things that they look forward to in the future. Santana says she is looking forward to the day when her grandmother loves her again. Later, she has solos in the performances of Fly/I Believe I Can Fly which she raps for the first time and What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger) at Regionals, she performs with Sugar, Mercedes, Brittany and the rest of the members of the former Glee Club, The Troubletones. This is their first number singing with the members of the Troubletones, but as the New Directions since Will and Rachel promised that the Troubletones could have one performance at every upcoming competition. In their performance, Santana opens with a solo and is given much applause from Sebastian and the Warblers, she then continues to sing with Mercedes and then dances with her girls, The Troubletones. She is last seen with Rachel and the rest of the bridesmaids as they wait for Quinn's arrival to the wedding, Santana tells Rachel to face the fact that Quinn isn't coming.
In Big Brother, Santana is the first one to get up and hug Quinn when she gets back. Santana walks hand in hand with Brittany into the library for the senior ditch day meeting. She also takes notes thoroughly with Cooper's acting advice to which she seems to be intrigued with.
At senior ditch day, she is seen holding hands and being close with Brittany throughout the whole journey.
performance and thinks he is able to see where she is going, more than a love song to Britt. He continues saying how she is wanting to support marriage equality and wants to go to law school. She turns that down, though she supports marriage equality and she will always love Britt, it was about how she also can't live without Fame. In the library, Brittany talks with Santana about how she is now trying to get her on to a reality show. Suggesting different TV shows, with different ways to do it. Santana and Brittany dance each other while Finn sings More Than a Woman Santana and Kurt sings backup. Santana and Brittany sit in Sue's office. Sue tells Santana how disappointed she is in her, not for the sex tape, revealing she her self made one with Oliver North, but because she doesn't care what it will take to be famous. She tells her that she agrees, and wants to go to college. Sue hands her an acceptance letter from the University of Louisville, and has a full scholarship in Cheerleading. She thanks the two of them, Sue revealing it was Brittany's idea. They tell each other that they love another and hug.
In Dance With Somebody Santana joins Mercedes, Rachel, and Kurt to open the episode with How Will I Know. Mr. Schuester says that their focus on Whitney is more about them dealing with their impending graduation, but Santana says it's only because Whitney was incredible and they love her. She accuses Mr. Schue of misplacing his own baggage on them. Santana looks on excitedly as Brittany begins singing I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me). After pulling several other members up to dance, Brittany pulls Santana up as she begins to sing more of the song. Brittany and Santana perform in a sequence with the Cheerios dancing. Later, Santana and Rachel sing a fun rendition of So Emotional.
Rachel shows up at Santana's locker which confuses Santana. Rachel tells Santana that they wasted three years as enemies when they could have been singing together. Santana says they hated each other, but then admits that their duet was awesome. Santana says there's plenty of time for another one, but Rachel points out they only have 42 days until Graduation. Santana is annoyed when she realizes she's going to miss Rachel. Rachel says that even though Santana went out of her way to make her miserable, Santana still respected her talent and ambition. Santana agrees. Rachel asks Santana to put a picture of Rachel in her locker and then gives her a quick hug. Santana puts the photo up. She and Brittany arrive in the auditorium to join the rest of the group in singing My Love Is Your Love.
In Choke, Santana, Brrittany, Tina, Sugar and Mercedes were at their lockers talking when they saw Beiste, with a bruised eye. Santana then makes a comment referencing Domestic Violence, which was meant to be taken as a joke. Coach Roz overheard what Santana said and took it seriously. She confronted the girls and gave them a small lecture about how serious the topic of Domestic Violence is. In the auditorium Santana and the girls performedCell Block Tango with Sue, Coach Roz and Coach Beiste as the audience. At the end of the performance she gave Tina a high five, thinking that they were awesome. However, Sue and Coach Roz were displeased with the performance and told them how offensive and inappropriate it was. Santana seemed shocked at their response along with the other girls. Then
in the choir room Santana and the girls apologize to Coach Beiste about the comments she made. Afterwards they began to sing Shake it Out to Coach Beiste and at the end Santana and the girls give Coach Beiste a group hug.
In Prom-asaurus, Santana entered the choir room smiling, being happy. Then she smacked her butt at Artie and went to sit beside Mercedes. Santana,showing her goofy side, playfully put her finger on Mercedes upper lip,which Mercedes pulled off and then pushed Santana a little. Santana laughed pleasantly at that. When Sue announced the nominees for prom queen, Santana found out she was nominated along with Quinn and Missy Gunderson. Then Brittany entered the choir room and began telling them about her plans for prom, Santana said "Sheer genius" to show her support. In the choir room when Rachel tell everyone that she is plannig an anti-prom,Santana tries to deter Rachel from her plan by insisting that she face the truth: she's upset and disappointed, but she's also acting petty, potentially ruining one of the last nights they'll all have to spend together before graduation.
At Prom, Santana entertains the prom crowd by singing Selena Gomez'sLove You Like a Love Song, with Brittany and Tina as backup. During What Makes You Beautiful performance Santana pulled Brittany by her hand to come dance with her. You can see Her and Brittany dancing together and enjoying themselves during the performance. Later, Santana while she was walking towards the Spanish class room, with a box containing the prom court votes, she saw Quinn and Rachel talking. She called out and said "Fabray stop making out with Berry." In the Spanish room, as Santana and Quinn tally the prom court votes, Santana is surprised at how few votes Brittany scored for king, and Santana admits that she doesn't want to be queen if Brittany isn't king. Both Quinn and Santana didn't want to be prom queen anymore so they decided to make Rachel win. This was after they discussed that they've had dream runs in high school: Being popular, doing what they want and who they want, which Santana chuckled at. They now have a chance to make a difference for someone else and so they agreed to make Rachel win prom queen.
After it was revealed that Rachel was prom queen, everyone stood shock while Santana was just smiling. Then Quinn and Santana sings Berlin's Take My Breath Away and everyone was dancing with their prom dates including the prom king and queen, Finn and Rachel. During the Take My Breath Away Quinn begins to stand, Santana looks surprise and quickly slides over to Quinn and holds her side to give her support. Santana smiled at Quinn and then they continued the performance.
Santana, like Quinn, has been primarily shown to be something of a cheerleading stereotype. Quick to pass judgment and insult and even bully other people, Santana seems to find no issue flaunting her spot on
the social ladder that is High School, and is not happy about being made co-captain of the Cheerios together with Becky in season three. However, she refrains from making fun of her disability, but it's unclear if it was due to having some sympathy for Becky or just out of fear of Sue, who had a sister with the same disability she loved very much. At the beginning of series, she acts more like a sidekick to Quinn, following her orders and usually letting her do all the talking. This changes when Quinn is kicked off the Cheerios by Sue due to being pregnant, thus making Santana the head cheerleader. She joins Glee to help Quinn keep an eye on Finn and to spy for Sue.
Santana also demonstrates occasional signs of kindness, usually with the Glee Club after a good performance or in her interactions with Brittany. She has admitted that she loves being in Glee Club, and that it is the best part of her day. She follows up this confession with instructions that if anyone asks, they are to say that she hates it, showing that she cares a lot about her image. Still, after believing Glee is over, Santana shows real emotion and cries.
She is extremely emotional at certain times for ridiculous reasons (losing tanning privileges or missing out on the Breadstix passes), and is often comforted by Brittany, who seems to bring out all the best in her. Santana has grown to be a better person through Glee, she actively admits to hating the people in the club before joining but now views them as equals, if not friends. Still, she can be seen as an antagonist because of her mean streak which is mainly displayed in the show, for instance, berating Rachel and other glee club members.
Santana gets jealous quite easily, especially when it concerns her sexual partners. She has displayed hostility towards Rachel, Quinn, Mercedes, Lauren and Artie when they are seen to be in a relationship with Puck or Brittany. When Puck sings to Rachel, she is noticeably peeved. When Quinn babysits, shows romantic interest in Puck and states that he actually cares about her, implying that he doesn't care about Santana, she angrily threatens her and tells her to stay away from him. When Mercedes begins dating Puck, they get into a singing battle before their conflict almost gets physical. When Puck begins to show interest in Lauren and sings a song to her, Santana gets into a physical fight with her and threatens her, ending up going to the nurse's office. When Artie and Brittany are together for the first time, she breaks them up when she tells Artie that Brittany is only using him for his voice. However, her threats and plans always backfire as the relationships she attempts to sabotage usually end up growing stronger than ever before, upsetting her even more. It is very possible that she does this because she is simply lonely, which is why she wants to show off her image and reputation. Though she wants Finn to let out that they slept together (even if it means that Rachel might break up with Finn), she is seen during the wedding reception with an unrecognizable look on her face. In another case, when the glee girls (except Mercedes) have a meeting over Kurt's situation with Karofsky, Santana is annoyed that they had a meeting without her. Even after finding out what it was about, Santana is genuinely hurt, but hides it with her "mean girl" attitude.
Santana acts confident but it has been proven on few occasions she's actually insecure, like when she got a boob job over the summer so people would notice her more. She gets incredibly hostile when her weaknesses are exposed, examples including attacking Quinn in the hall for telling Sue about her "summer surgery" and having Santana knocked down to the bottom of the pyramid. It's also been shown that while she has no problem insulting and putting down others, she can "dish it out but can't take it," and gets upset when the glee club members turn on her, showing she cares a lot about what people think of her.
In Sexy she admits that she acts like a bitch all the time because she's angry due to the fact that she has so many feelings for Brittany that confuse her and she doesn't deal with because she's afraid of dealing with the consequences. These feelings also scare her because she's afraid of the looks, the talks, and what people will say about her behind her back if she comes out.
There initially was confusion over whether Santana is bisexual or a lesbian. Naya Rivera said that Santana was bisexual, but it was not an official statement. In Sexy, Santana says that she's attracted to both girls and guys. Later in the episode, she confesses that she has no interest in Finn/Sam/Puck, and that she loves only Brittany. But after Brittany refuses to dump Artie (just a "stupid boy", according to Santana), Santana disparages her for her relative sexual fluidity. Santana remains in a relationship with Sam, however the two immediately join the Celibacy Club , indicating Santana has realized that she doesn't genuinely want to have sex with men. Brad Falchuk later stated that Santana is indeed a lesbian; she realized it for the first time in Sexy, and is struggling to accept it in subsequent episodes. By season 3, she becomes a much nicer and caring person and even becomes friends with her old enemy, Rachel.
Santana describes herself as a "closeted lesbian" in Born This Way. She is seen to be something of a nymphet in the first two seasons. She has dated and slept with many guys, but has also had sex with Brittany on what is implied to have been multiple occasions as shown in the episode Duets she said to Brittany that making out was a "nice break from all that scissoring". It seems, however, that she is either afraid or embarrassed by her same-sex attractions, when she tells Brittany that she isn't making out with her because she is in love with her, even though Brittany said nothing of the sort. It would make sense in the context, though, because Brittany had proposed a duet by famous out singer Melissa Etheridge. In addition to her relationship with Brittany, Santana's sexuality is addressed in episode 15 of season 2, Sexy, after Holly Holliday returns to McKinley as a Sex Ed teacher. She says she "doesn't know" when she is asked if she thinks she might be a lesbian, but admits having been attracted to both men and women in the past. Santana and Brittany usually hook pinkies for good luck.
Santana, after asking Holly Holliday help to express her feelings through a song, finally admits to being in love with Brittany, and though Brittany admits to loving her back, she can't bring herself to break up with Artie - who she also loves - to be with Santana. After the song and deeply considering her feelings for Brittany, she explicitly compared her situation with Kurt's, tells Brittany "I don't want to be with Sam, or Finn, or any of those other guys; I just want you!", refers to Artie as "just a stupid boy", and makes a disparaging remark about Brittany's evident sexual fluidity, leading some fans and commentators to believe she is a lesbian which was later confirmed at Paley Fest 2011. Brad Falchuk was quoted as saying in upcoming episodes regarding Brittana, they want "Santana to come to grips with being a lesbian and how she deals with it". They will "explore Brittana as individuals but it will definitely come back to Brittana". Falchuk added. "We want to make sure everybody is included. Santana is a lesbian. She might not be ready to come out yet, but she is." In Born This Way during a voiceover Santana admits that she is a closeted lesbian, and later tells Dave Karofsky that they play on the same team. When Brittany gave her a shirt she made her for the Born This Way number that said "Lebanese"(supposed to say lesbian), Santana tells Brittany that she can't tell anyone about it and doesn't perform in the number. But she is later seen in the audience wearing the "Lebanese" shirt. The "lesbian" storyline continues into the third season, and leads to Santana being pushed out of the closet by Finn. She fully admits to it and even tells her parents that she is a lesbian.
Santana and Brittany are both members of the Cheerios and best friends. They were considered just friends until Sectionals, when it was discovered they had slept together. This was confirmed during a promo on the Fox website; "Glee-wind: Season One Relationships", where they are labeled as best friends "with benefits". They are always seen together, holding hands or cuddling. They later agree to go on a date together with Finn. They made out in the episode Duets (and are implied to have done so many times before), and although Santana says she is not in love with Brittany, she seems to contradict this when, out of jealousy, she persuades Artie to break up with Brittany; this effort is ultimately fruitless as Artie and Brittany eventually resume their relationship. Santana still loves Brittany, though, as shown in Special Education, where she seems to give Brittany more attention than the other glee club members during her performance.
In Sexy, it's revealed that Brittany had been cheating on Artie with Santana. In Santana's room, Brittany tries to convince Santana that they should talk to someone about their relationship because it's really confusing for her. Santana refuses at first but later on, they're seen talking to Miss Holliday and Santana admits she's attracted to girls and guys. They decide to sing Landslide in front of the club so Santana can show her feelings to Brittany. When Brittany asks if that's really how she feels, Santana says it is and they hug tightly. When Rachel praises them for the "sapphic charm," Santana says that just because she sang a song with Brittany doesn't mean she can put a label on her. Later in the hallway, Santana admits to Brittany that she loves her and wants to be with her. Brittany - even though she said she loves her too - is unwilling to break up with Artie to be with Santana, confessing that she loves both and doesn't want to break his heart, leaving Santana hurt and angry. Santana is later seen in the Celibacy Club staring sadly at Brittany sitting with Artie.
In Original Song, Brittany confronts Santana at her locker, asking her if she wants to Rumours
talk because she misses how close they were. When Brittany asks what she did wrong, Santana said that she blew her off to be with "Stubbles McCripplepants" (Artie), clearly showing that Santana is still hurt and upset. When Brittany reminds Santana that she told her that she was in love with her, Santana lies, "I honestly don't know what I was thinking". She then tells Brittany to stop staring at her because she can't remember her locker combination. When Sue approaches them and insults them, calling them "Tweedle Dumb" and "Tweedle Fake Boobs", Brittany defends them both and they turn back to their lockers away from Sue. When they open them however, they're covered in dirt- Sue's payback for them leaving the Cheerios.
In Born This Way Brittany confronts Santana and when she asks her to wear the "Lebanese" shirt which was meant to say "Lesbian". Santana refuses and Brittany asks why, saying that she was the awesomest girl in the girl in the whole school and that she shouldn't try to hide that. When Santana says that when she confessed to Brittany that she was in love with her and she didn't say it back (even though Brittany actually did say she loved her back in Sexy), Brittany says angrily, "I do love you! Clearly you don't love you as much as I do or you'd put this shirt on and dance with me!" She then storms off before Santana can say anything else, showing Brittany being angry for the first time on the show.
In Rumours, after Brittany breaks up with Artie, Santana brings her to the choir room to comfort her and sings her Songbird. During the song, both are very emotional - Brittany on the verge of crying and Santana crying in the end. When Brittany asks why she couldn't sing that in front of all of the others, Santana says that she's not ready for that sort of "public announcement". Brittany asks her to go on her web show so she could ask her to prom and tell her how she feels and all Santana has to do is say yes. Santana agrees but doesn't show up, texting Brittany "I can't". Later, when Jacob is interviewing Santana and asks Santana if Karofsky and her are, "In love? Soulmates so to speak?" Santana glances at Brittany across the hall sadly and says yes, still staring at Brittany before leaving. Many believe this is hinting that Brittany and Santana are indeed soulmates.
In I Am Unicorn, Santana gives Brittany an inspiring speech after Kurt put-down her class president election campaign (which she was handling for him). Later, Brittany refers to herself as also being "a unicorn, or maybe a bi-corn"; this may be Brittany coming out as bisexual as she wants to be with Santana.
In Pot O' Gold Santana and Brittany are on a date at Breadstix. Santana tells Brittany that she wants them to be together, and is finally happy. Santana is still uncomfortable being out and in public, but is making an improvement.
In Heart, Santana is very open with her relationship with Brittany, to the point where she confronts the God Squad and pays for a singing Valentine's for Brittany, making sure to emphasize the nature of their relationship. She is vocal in expressing her displeasure at being told to stop kissing Brittany by Mr. Figgins, angry at the double standards at the school, as Finn and Rachel are able to show PDA, but not Santana and Brittany. At Sugar's party, Santana and Brittany share a very intimate, on-screen kiss during the Cherish/Cherish number sung to them by the God Squad.
They seem to be dating in early episodes, but Santana breaks up with him because of his bad credit score and says that she needs someone who can support her. However, she still has some sort of attachment to him and becomes extremely jealous when Rachel, Quinn, Mercedes and Lauren show interest in Puck. They have slept together in the past and have often sexted, but they are not an official couple. However, in the episode Furt, Santana claims that they are dating. Quinn then says "You're getting naked with Puckerman," causing her to storm off. During Finn's performance of Just the Way You Are, Santana and Puck are seen smiling and dancing together.
In Season 3, Santana has now come to realize that she is a lesbian and in love with Brittany while Puck is focusing on being in his daughter Beth's life most likely getting back with Quinn since they both want to spend time with their child, but has feelings for Shelby.
They were both in West Side Story together as Anita and Bernardo.
Finn and Santana were never friends, but Sue orders Santana and Brittany to go after Finn and take him from Rachel, so that she will quit the Glee Club. Sue later wants the Cheerios to date younger men, Santana has her mind set on taking Finn's virginity (since Brittany pointed out Finn was a few days younger than Santana) and she succeeds. Finn later regrets losing his virginity to Santana, although their one night stand helped Finn see that he was still in love with Rachel. In Furt, she tells Finn that he should start telling people that they had sex, claiming it will boost his reputation, and he will return to being New Directions' top man, a role which had recently been stolen by Sam. However, Finn refuses, saying that he loves Rachel and doesn't want her to dump him. In The First Time, Santana tells Rachel that Finn is terrible in bed.
In The Rocky Horror Glee Show, Santana is shown to be interested in Sam's abs. However, things get more serious when in Silly Love Songs, as the Warblers put on a performance at Breadstix, Santana is seen to turn around to look at Sam and wave at him, while he smiles back. In Comeback, Santana convinces Sam that Quinn cheated on him with Finn, which thus ended Quinn and Sam's relationship. She also tells him she "wants to kiss his big mouth" and that he could have unlimited access to her breasts, thus they begin to date. In Blame It On The Alcohol she is seen making out with Sam in Rachel's basement a lot throughout the night. However, in Sexy, she told Brittany she didn't want to be with Sam nor any other guy, she just wants to be with Brittany. After Brittany's rejection, it seems Santana realizes she has no attraction to Sam—she immediately has them both join the Celibacy Club, meaning they can go out without her having to engage in sex with him. In Original Song, she writes an original song called Trouty Mouth for Sam (to refer to his big lips) and sings it in front of the Glee Club. Sam is angered and embarrassed by the song and tells her to stop singing it. Though in A Night of Neglect they are shown to still be together when Sam has his arm around her while Mercedes is singing Ain't No Way. They officially broke up in Born This Way, Santana got with Karofsky because she didn't think Sam was popular enough to help her win Prom Queen. Right before the New Directions sing Born This Way Artie asks where Santana is and Sam says probably somewhere making out with Karofsky showing that it hurt him a bit, but then says it's fine and Karofsky can have her.
In season one, several scenes suggest they may have been dating. Vitamin D is the first appearance of their relationship, when they are seen sitting close together and messing around with Brittany and Artie. In Mash-Up they hug and hold hands throughout the episode. They sat together in Glee Club a lot during the season, and were dance partners for several numbers. When football players were ordered to choose between football and glee, when Matt walked through the door, Santana ran and hugged him. In the episode Mash-Up, during Will's performance of Bust a Move, Santana hugs Matt.
In A Night of Neglect Santana finds out there's a secret between Kurt and Karofsky. In Born This Way, Santana makes a deal with Dave; they know that they're both gay, so they pretend to have a relationship, calling each other their "beards," so that no one will find out their true sexualities. They enter the contest at prom for Prom King and Queen, so Santana will make Brittany fall in love with her, however in Prom Queen, Dave wins Prom King, but Santana loses to Kurt for Prom Queen. They then ended their relationship.
She got the role of Anita in the school's musical, West Side Story (Asian F)
Her favorite movie is Leprechaun, "starring a young Jen Aniston." (Pot O' Gold)
She has a drawing in her locker made by Brittany that says "Lord Tubbington thinks you are purrrrfect, and so do I" which can be seen also in Brittany's locker. (Pot O' Gold)
Her name may be a reference to Satan as Kurt almost called her Satan in Prom Queen but quickly corrected himself.
When she dresses in regular clothes she tends to wear dresses with a short jacket.
When in regular clothes she can mostly be seen with a head band.
The only person she has ever loved is Brittany.
Dated or slept with most of the boys in Glee Club.
She wants her grandmother to love her again
Brittany released a sex tape of the two of them spliced together with Lord Tubbington doing everyday household chores, which is called "2 girls, 1 cat" (Saturday Night Glee-ver).
She was accepted into the University of Louisville and has a full scholarship for cheerleading.
No, you're right, she's the only one, along with Rachel, who had a solo at a competition ! Finn never had a solo and neither did Blaine in the New Directions ! When I realized it, I was so proud and happy !
We are talking about Prom-Asaurus right? What did she say? i didn't get to see the episode, and i have to wait 8 days after each ep airs for it to be on the internet. Please tell me what she said. I have to know...........................
First I hated Santana, now: I LOVE HER! She is just A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
It was so sweet when Santana and Quinn gave the crown to Rachel and how Santana smiled during Take My Breath Away .
A few people have noted a love / hate relationship with Santana. Does anyone see it as strong as the L / H people had for Harry Potter's character Severus Snape? (Yes, their raisones d'être [plural] are completely different, yet, are simultaneously similar). Just curious what people think.
Am i the only who thought Santana should've tried to find the cheerio who overheard her conversation with Finn In Mash Off, Zelzar's ( Don't know how to spell his name ) Neice.
Salazar. And, yeah, I'm curious also about this. This would be in Santana's character to find out "who ruined my life" by narc'ing on her (even though we see her on screen; Santana was so stunned when Finn called her out, she wouldn't have remembered or noticed who was around her).
Santana is by far my favorite character in this show. She reminds me so much of myself, even though I don't date (yet) and I don't bash out... But when she's in scenes Brittany, I'm in the exact same boat as she was in season 2. I know exactly how it feels to be in love with my best friend, and finding that I'm actually not who I thought I was... I just don't know if I have the strength to come out.
Not yet. But she gives me so much hope, and she just lightens my day. Hearing her voice sort of makes everything better. I just ... I so wish for a happy ending with my best friend, like San has now with Britt.
Santana is just the most complex character I've ever seen. Her reactions are so true to her character, even if it's her 'shark side' as I call it. But there are moments, where she lets her guard down, just for a few seconds. She realizes that sometimes, she just wants to be part of something... (we are young, as an example) And, I feel just like her. (part of why I'm not ready to come out yet) I really feel like I may have found a place to where I belong, in my class... they're my ND. But still, I'm hiding...
Santana is defiantly one of the most developted and amazing characters in this show. She represents a lot of stuff that other people go trough as well and use sarcasm, ironic talk and mouthing off as a sort of "defence mecanism".
Well, I just wanted to say that you got my support (not that it counts for much and I don't even know you), but anyway I hope you wil find your way out and to tell your friend :) Go on girl ^^
Idk what ND stands for... but yeah, I jsut wanted to say that you're really brave to say so on the internet, even if that's not in real life and most people who read this don't know you, i's a start. You're really brave and I hope everything will turn out well for you :)
And even though she's using it as a defense mechanism it's still such a comic relief. She's just "Keeping it real" and it's great. I miss her snarky comments sometimes. There are several times where I feel that a Snixxx comment just's missing. But then again, Britt has her whipped hard...
I hope so too.. Problem just is.. Just found out TODAY that she's freaking gone and gotten herself a girlfriend.. So I've just had my heart shattered into at million pieces and stuffed in a jar... GREAT! Suddenly, I'm not really looking forwards to seeing her this friday... Excruciating.. I know I'm supposed to be happy and all, but ... but ... It freaking hurts..
You say it doesn't count, but it does. To know that people accept me, even if it's only here, it's a feeling I'm not used to having. It's really nice, thank you :')
ND? New Directions. They're like my home, but even at my real home I'm not ready to come out. Because I haven't had any consequenses from it... You know? It's not like I go out and try to pick up girls, I just happened to fall in love with a girl. I hope this 'start' will lead to a proud and out status some day. :)
Our thoughts, in all of Glee-dom, are with you. You'll be ready when you're ready. We of Glee-dom will be behind you (in support), beside you, and in front of you (to help be your shield). We're like that. :)
Aw.. well yeah I can get that's hard, but she doesn't know that you love her tho, maybe that has something to do with it! And I hope your heart will heal with time :)
It's great to know that my comment does make you feel better ! :D
ND.. of course, I should have known that! :P
I understnad that, I'm hoping that you'll get the strenght to tell your family and friends when you're ready for it :)
^ Why do you think that? I think she's changed just a bit...she used to be a bitch all the time, now just 70% of the time (Brittany scenes and when she helps the glee club)
^ Well she started changing when opend up to Brittany. She never did that before. She's also not destructive anymore. In season 2 everything she did had the purpose to just smash things down. She wasn't happy so she tried to pull everyone down.
Now if you look at the plots she schemed past her coming out. The destructive part is compeltely gone. See in Spanish Teacher and Michael. Somethign like that would have never hapened in season 1 or 2. And don't forget how she said she would miss Rachel .
Yeah, you are right about the destructive part, but I guess I like her more now. Before she was just hilarious and now she can be sweet too. What about you?
Santana is the best character in the world!!!! She has an amazing voice and I love her HILARIOUS lines!!!! She REALLY roxxxxxx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like I know her snappy insults are incredibly mean but they're so smart and funny!!! It's addicting! Glad she's more of a main character now! Especially compared to season 1! She has like one line every two episodes! Love her! :) ♥Not the real performance but the audio!
First of all, you are bashing and that is against the rules. You sound homophobic and if you hate her then why are you on her page??...thats reallly pathetic.
Can I ask, or am I the only Gleek who doesn't really like Santana? I like her a little, but half the second season one of the stories in every episode was: 'I love you Brittany! *Insults someone badly* It was because I loved Brittany!" That isn't an excuse for bullying some kids for a year. I mean, If a girl was bullying you, very badly, and she said "I did it because I loved my best friend" What would you say?
Part of me thinks you are trying to get a rise out of Santana fans. But people deal with stuff in their own outlets. So yes I can believe her verbal insults can tie into such. And it's not like they all didn't "fight" back and throw their own insults at her.
