I was really interested in reading your response, because my dash was overall "meh" on the episode, and I didn't hate it. Maybe Glee worked me up into enough of a rage the last two episodes that I can't work up the energy anymore, IDK. I missed some of it due to phone calls though, so I'm going to have to go back and rewatch at some point.
Honestly, the stuff presented in the episode wasn't good, but I was expecting much worse. I hate that they forced a love triangle on Beiste, but I like that it came about because Cooter thought she didn't return his feelings as opposed to him chasing the "better option." Still a dick move but not as dickish as I thought it would be.
Finn was...yeah, Santana forgave him too easily. On the other hand, on his end, it spoke true to the character for me. Finn was still a massive douche, but he was trying to fix things in his own, stupid, misguided, douchey way. Does that make sense? The show let him off to easily for sure, but they played it consistent with how they have been portraying him, IMO.
I WAS SO PLEASED THAT THEY FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGED QUINN IS NOT OKAY, KJSDJFLSKDF. So much so that I missed...a lot of that speech. But she's supposed to go back to cray Quinn next episode, which...on one hand, I'm glad that it wasn't so easy as "man fixes problem, woman is okay." On the other, can we get some actual growth for her?
I'm actually really curious to your thoughts on Santana's coming out to her grandma.
