This week, we got two whole hours of Glee, which included
the ramp-up to nationals, and nationals themselves.
To start, we had little miss Tina throw a snit-fit because she
wasn’t feeling Rachel having yet another solo.
She explodes at the group, and then storms out of the choir room when no
one is on her side.
Apparently it wasn’t too big of a deal, because we then see
her run into Kurt and Blaine in the mall, her with several tons of fabric to
sew costumes for nationals. Is this the
first we’ve seen the need to make all those costumes? I don’t recall it in any previous season, but
I could just be forgetting.
Anyway, as she’s leaving the boys, she trips and falls head
first into the fountain, segueing to a…
Body swap fantasy!
Let’s see if I can remember everyone:
Rachel=Tina
Finn=Kurt
Puck=Blaine
Santana=Artie
Mr. Shue=Sue
Quinn=Sugar
Mike=Dreads
Sam=Ireland
Brit=Mercedes
It was freaking hilarious.
Finn and Puck as Kurt and Blaine especially. I was dying laughing. Of course, though, they had to ruin it by making
Tina see just how much of a special snowflake Rachel is, and then use the time
to show us how Tina is gonna be lead female vocals next year, even though she
really isn’t right for it, I don’t think.
Her voice is fine, of course, but it’s not strong enough, not
emotion-filled enough to lead like Rachel, or even Finn.
In other news, Rachel becomes a stalker once Tina becomes
her biggest fan, and hunts down the drama school coach in hopes of getting
another audition, with Tina running wing man all the way.
Finally, Puck finally remembers he’s supposed to be the
badass of the group, and gets in a fight
with mullethead from the prom episode, and pull a knife, which was when Coach
Beiste suddenly appears, and breaks up the whole thing. Puck gets his best Will Smith on, and has a
breakdown with the coach in the locker room.
They both let everything out, and Coach Beiste leaves Cooters for
realzies. Then they sing a Taylor Swift
song together, which kind of ruined the moment for me, but whatevs.
We then smash to nationals!
They are getting ready, and packing the bus, and away the whole club
goes. Jesse St. James makes an appearance,
and tries to psych Rachel out, and fails miserably.
However, a disreputable burrito knock Mercedes out, and the
program has to be altered at the last minute, so everyone stays up late and
learns the new choreography, only to have Mercedes show up at the last minute,
hopped up on steroids and who knows what, thanks to Sue.
The judges for the completion are Lindsey Lohan, Perez
Hilton, and random Asian guy who plays the principal on Suburgatory. New Directions goes first, and nails it. They are followed by Vocal Adrenaline,
headlined by Unique, and they…don’t, so much.
Their songs were kind of boring, and Unique was not very.
The three judges do their thing, and New Directions wins, of
course.
The kids go back to school, and actually have a celebration
thrown in their honor. They end by
giving Mr. Shue teacher of the year, and sing “We are the Champions” to him.
Next week: graduation, finally!
