So what effect do greco-roman wrestlers and infectious diseases have on McKinley High? The rest of the gleecap, along with allison levin's rambling commentary, follows after the break!
Oh, where to begin? First of all, there was a whole lot of kissing going on. Between Finn's kissing booth (really people, REALLY?) and the use of Santana's supreme immune system to exact revenge on cheating Quinn (and other-man Finn), we saw a lot of making out and getting down.
In that vein, we finally have some closure for those Kurt-Blaine fans out there. While it was painfully obvious Kurt was going to get his heart broken at the beginning of the episode (a prime opportunity for Chris Colfer to make his sad little puppy face) Kurt and Blaine finally decided to enter into some sort of psuedo-relationship. Who cares if it's not real? Nothing on this show is!
Another interesting moment? Finally getting to see smug Blaine knocked down a peg...by a Gap employee no less. (Take that, private school!) And who was there to hold his hand? Kurt! After a good smirk, that is. Don't be jailbait, Blaine. Or at least use Craigslist if you're going to do that shit.
But before that? Epic girlfight between Santana and Lauren over Puck. Obviously Lauren, the greco-roman wrestling champ, mopped the floor with Miss Santana who got thrown into the lockers so much I'm surprised it didn't bust one of her implants. And that independence is what has Puck hooked. I'm rooting for them, kids.
Santana was in prime bitch mode after being called out for, well, being a bitch. After a good cry in the hallway while being comforted by sometimes-lesbian-lover Brittany (can we bring that back, please?), she was in it to win it...by whatever means possible. And when she couldn't win Puck she just decided to take Quinn down...by using Quinn's lingering feelings for meathead Finn. Cheaters never win, people. And sometimes they get mono.
Speaking of crying, can someone please explain Tina's horrible breakdown during My Funny Valentine? Is it really because she loves Mike sosososomuch or is it unresolved feelings about Artie? I mean, other than the fact they're both Asian, I don't know what holds the relationship together.
But, as a Katy Perry hater out there, I'm beginning to get a little fed up. Teenage Dream was cool. Starting off the Super Bowl episode with California Gurls, and then throwing in Rachel singing Fireworks as a way to show she's over Finn? That's two Katy Perry songs in two episodes, which is two too much for this reviewer. Did the show just save up enough iTunes giftcards to buy her soul? The Queen cover made me laugh though, I always love it when Glee hams up a good old classic rock song.
Overall this was campy Glee at its finest. Plenty of makeouts, a devious scheme and a mall dance routine hit all the buttons and pulled all the levers that makes Glee a powerful machine. But, in true Glee fashion, next week is probably going to suck.
Here's a relationship breakdown for those still confused.
Tina and Mike = together
Artie and Brittany = together
(those were the easy ones)
Rachel is over Finn, who is not over Quinn, who is dating Sam. Sam was eying Santana at Breadstix, so who knows where that's going.
Puck is trying to get with Lauren, who could probably care less/break his head if she wanted to.
Mercedes is alone, but she's cool with it.
And finally,
Kurt and Blaine are doing When Harry Met Sally. I'm still waiting for the fake orgasm in the middle of a restaurant.
As for Sue Sylvester, she sadly didn't make an appearance this episode. But she'll be back. She's always back.
And lo shall her vengeance be terrible!
