Being a regular Glee viewer, well a Gleek, you have to expect the unexpected and realize strange things are going to happen. This week's show was no exception to the rule.
I guess the easiest way to explain this episode is song by song.
Vocal Adrenaline-Another One Bite The Dust
The show opened with Jesse leaving New Directions, and breaking up with Rachael, and rejoining Vocal Adrenaline. The sang an alright version of this song to show how good they are, as well as eventually toilet papering the choir room, and to psych out ND, and it worked because it put them in a funk, setting the stage for the rest of the night.
Highlight for me was the fact that Puck, in thoughts, said "For some unknown reason me and Finn are still not talking to each other." With that I knew that Puck would get Finn to help him seek revenge on VA, by slashing all their tires.
Meanwhile we find out that Will has officially gotten a divorce from Terri and that puts him in a funk. What I couldn't quite figure out was why Will went to former-Glee director, the ever-so freaky, Sandy for advice? But alas, he tells him what VA's weakness is, funk music, and the assignment to the Glee club is to find a funk song to sing.
Will-Tell Me Something Good
This had to be one of the creepiest performances Shue had EVER done, singing seductively to Sue. It was so insane to watch that there was no way me or Mandy could keep our eyes off the screen, but obviously for different reasons. This was very awesome though out of context.
Finn and Puck (with the rest of the staff of Linens & Things)-Loser
This was my favorite performance of the night. This song might just end up being my new main ring-tone when I download the mp3 soon. The only problem I had was the fact that it wasn't longer. This song was sung at Linens & Things, a.k.a. Bed Bath & Beyond, without having to pay for the rights, because Finn and Puck had to get a job to pay for the cars that they destroyed. It was such a fitting song and performance, can't say anything bad about it.
Quinn (and The Unwed Mothership Connection (I can't make that up))-It's a Man's Man's Man's World
I don't want to be overly mean, but who thought this performance was a good idea? Who said "let's get a bunch of overly pregnant girls, have them dance with their tummies, and sing a really obscure song that most of the audience doesn't know and it's a great idea!"? It brought the whole show to a screeching halt. It was boring, blah and just uncomfortable to watch.
Finn, Puck and Mercendes-Good Vibrations
This song was just fun. Sometimes you just have to have some fun. Singing this song was just that. You can tell the three of them had alot of fun singing and dancing to this song. There's not much else to say except this is the kind of performance that makes this a great show.
After this song we had to have a little storyline.
First Shue stood up Sue, after asking her out to dinner, they got into a major throw down. This caused Sue to almost pull her Cheerios out of nationals. This made the girls so upset that they were freaking out, this led to a funny sight of Brittney wearing her uniform backwards. Shue then went to Sue's house, apologized and they had one of the best sweet moments of this whole show. But it didn't matter because after the Cheerios won nationals, which included Kurt singing Celine Dion is fluent French, Sue went to Shue's place and told him that either he kiss her or she will put the massive trophy in the choir room in a bulletproof case. Well Shue was going to kiss her, very VERY awkward at home watching, but she stops him saying "Even your breath stinks of mediocrity." This led to the trophy being put in the choir room, with the background music being Loser from earlier in the show. Nice touch.
Jesse tricked Rachael to come outside, only to be completely egged by all the members of VA, including himself. This led to all the ND guys getting really mad and starting to barge out to kick some butt, but Shue stopped them. This led to my personal line of the night by Kurt, "Rachel's one of us — we're the only ones who get to humiliate her.'' Shue wanted a different kind of revenge...
New Directions-Give Up The Funk
This was fun. This was sexy. This was entertaining. This scared the crap out of VA who were watching. This was a great way to end this show even if it was hard to follow the words.
Next week is Regionals, the season finale, and I couldn't be anymore excited!
