Although the episode did not address the cause of Finn's death, Monteith's costars Jane Lynch, Matthew Morrison and Kevin McHale spoke in a PSA addressing drug addiction.

The clip, called "Our Friend," aired at the end of the tribute and was taped on the Glee set.

"Our friend Cory didn't look, or act like an addict," Lynch says. "He was happy, successful and seemingly had it all."

"Addiction is a serious disease that can hide in plain sight but no one needs to fight it alone," Morrison said.

Monteith, who played McKinley High quarterback and glee-club member Finn Hudson on the show, died July 13 in his Vancouver hotel room from an accidental drug overdose The British Columbia Coroners Service confirmed that Monteith's death was accidental. He "died of mixed drug toxicity, involving intravenous heroin use combined with the ingestion of alcohol," the coroners service said in a statement.
