Daybreak
performed by Barry Manilow
(Song)

Birdee Pruitt is a Chicago housewife who is invited onto the fictitious Toni Post talk show under the pretense of a free makeover. The makeover she is given is hardly what she has in mind...as she is ambushed with the revelation that her husband Bill has been having an affair behind her back and wants a divorce so he can be with his mistress Connie, who also happens to be her best friend. Humiliated on national television, Birdee and her daughter Bernice move back to Birdee's hometown of Smithville, Texas with Birdee's eccentric mother Ramona to try and make a fresh start.

What started as a casual disagreement about blankets and pillows blossoms into all-out war on the Greendale campus. While insults are hurled and the study group chooses sides, Jeff tries desperately to negotiate a truce, but with neither Abed nor Troy budging on their principles or their real estate, the future looks grim for the former best friends.
