 Puck has been granted early release from juvenile detention on the condition that he performs community service . He picks Artie Abrams , a paraplegic , to fulfill that service , and the two busk in the school courtyard . They sing a duet of " One Love / People Get Ready " while Puck surreptitiously intimidates their schoolmates into giving donations . He then helps Artie get back together with Brittany Pierce ( Heather Morris ) , by setting up a double date with them and Santana Lopez ( Naya Rivera ) . Puck 's caseworker Joan Martin ( Michael Hyatt ) had believed he was working to rehabilitate gang members , and tells him he will have to return to the detention center unless he finds an alternative type of service . Puck admits to Artie that despite his bravado , he was miserable when locked up and does not want to return ; Artie convinces him to complete the required real community service and offers to tutor him in school .
