Man, I loved this episode a lot. Tbh, I've decided to try and watch Glee without focusing on the problematic parts (Finn). Doing so makes for a, uh, leaner viewing experience, but I after I raged myself to death last week, I don't know, man. I just can't do it anymore.
SAM. Love u, Sam. His storyline about being pushed out of teenagerhood and having to be an adult resonated with me, a lot. I liked the chat with his parents in theory, but it was a little cheesy in practice. I liked Sam being a stripper in theory, in practice, in abs, in everything. What I'm saying is, someone bettah write fic where Sam gives QuinnRachelBlainePuckSugarWillMike ChangMercedes EVERYONE a private ~show.
Sugar is the best. I totes snarfed my bourbon when she yelled 'tickles.' Honorable mention: Harmony. Shit gurl, you cray and I love you for it.
Finn. Le sigh, Finn. Can you just be the dumbest and have silly one-liners about Backdraft: The Musical and being really good at looking busy, please? I'm trying to wash from my brain everything that Finn has done in the past few episodes because if I don't do that, I will go insane, and I will take you all with me. When he fist-bumped Blaine during the TT performance I CACKLED and was like "the only explanation is that he needs glasses and a hearing aid." But then I was sad because I knew what was gon happen.
Artie's line about tingling in a 50% tingle zone was hilar, not sry2say.
Speaking of tingle zones: The Troubletones, ladies and gents. No commentary needed.
Quinn, your storyline is so fucking odd I can't wrap my mind around it. I get what Sam was trying to say to Quinn, and it would be fine if she was like "oh no, I flunked my Trig test and my life is OVER" but girl has ISSUES and is trying to get CUSTODY of the baby she put up for adoption by ruining someone else's LIFE, so, uh, Sam—you should probably keep your advice to yourself. The whole thing is just so very Glee, and not in a good way. I guess at least they are acknowledging that Shelby is messed up, too? I dunno, I think they have no idea what the HALE they are doing with this mess. WEIRD, I KNOW, USUALLY GLEE'S STORYLINES ARE SO WELL-THOUGHT-OUT WITH FOCUS AND CLARITY.
I'm glad you have that unpopular opinion about Mike's storyline. During Tina's scene with Chang Sr. in his office, I was just like "uhhhhh sry Tina but Big Daddy Chang has a point."
Kurt was the most perfect Kurt that ever Kurted in this ep. JUST PERFECT.
And then of course I mean at the end when Will had the trophy and made the little "4 you" gesture and pointed out into the audience Emma was there but like Rachel was standing right next to her and well I ju—YOU GET THE IDEA.
The only crime is that we didn't get Puck Puckerman reaction faces when the other clubs were performing. A TRAVESTY. He we probably too busy feeding that thing that lives on his head now.
