Glee Episode V: The Sylvester Strikes Back - - - Part 12

[Sawyer]

Is he sleeping/crying/singing all at once?

 

[Schlosser85]

Triple threat!

Okay, my thoughts:

- Overall, it was a pretty entertaining episode. I enjoyed it more than the last two. The music was fun.

- Nice to see Mercedes and Mike actually get something to do this time.

- Katey Segal made a one scene walk-on appearance. This show loves squandering people.

- Always nice to see Burt (and Glee remembered Carole exists!), and he's reliably the Voice of Reason.

- which brings me to.....oh, Blaine. In what desperate, Kurt-fevered corner of your overgelled head does proposing marriage to your ex-boyfriend who you haven't been with for most of the year sound like a good idea? Despite Blaine's protests, Burt was right that they really would be pulling a Finchel, even assuming (a huge IF) Kurt accepted it. Blaine means well, but he's not mature enough to understand the significance of what he's planning, especially considering he cheated on Kurt after a few weeks of separation (Kurt was not blameless in the situation either, but still) and has spent half the time since crushing on Sam. Actually I think Burt could have hit the point harder, that Klaine isn't even together at present. Get a freaking grip, Blaine. Proposing to your ex who you haven't been with for months is insane. Seriously. Congratulations, you have gone leaps and bounds beyond the Gap Attack fiasco for the worst idea you have ever had. And the promos show you asking Sam to be your best man, so clearly you didn't take Burt's words of wisdom to heart. Hopefully the lesbian mentors have more of an effect on you (as I think they will, since we already have spoilers he doesn't actually propose, thank God, though part of me would like to see Kurt's expression if he did).

- So the writers remembered Cassandra exists, whom I honestly thought they'd forgotten about, only to spin her through the Glee Villain Insta-Redeemer. None escape its clutches, clearly. Her number was fun though. By the way, how is her wardrobe any kind of remotely appropriate for a teacher??

- Considering they made a storyline out of putting Finn in college, it's just lazy how they can't even be bothered to toss in some throwaway line about how he's MIA because he's busy studying for a big exam or something. Also, they've completely forgotten Joe and Sugar's existences, but they'll conveniently be back just in time for Regionals.

- I smell Funny Girl and Klaine as two of the big finale cliffhangers. Possibly Regionals.

Jesus, I forgot about them too! Christ, how long have they been gone ?!

 

[Sawyer]

Triple threat!

And who goes to bed with that much hairgel still on? I mean, really...

 

[Schlosser85]

And who goes to bed with that much hairgel still on? I mean, really...

In the same scene, Rachel went to bed with all her makeup on. lol

 

[Hunter Rider]

I love how Will just casually mentioned he'd re-proposed to Emma and she'd accepted in a run on sentence of wrap ups of arcs Murphy no longer cares about.

Kate Hudson body is tight!....that is all.

 

[Primal Slayer]

So... The catfish.

[BLACKOUT]It's Unique.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Sawyer]

I actually didn't mind the Cassandra/Rachel stuff after watching the episode. The number was a bit much, but overall the Scrubs-esque Dr. Cox/JD relationship makes sense.

As for Blaine... come on, dude.

And even though it was a throw-away line, I loved Kitty calling BS on Britt getting accepted to MIT.

 

[Primal Slayer]

I don't even remember them mentioning Britt.

 

[SpideyFan866]

I ****ING KNEW IT! GOD DAMN YOU MURPHY! Too. ****ing. Predictable!

Question: I heard a rumor that someone might be leaving Glee in the season finale? True? —Nils
Ausiello: Thursday’s finale definitely leaves you with the impression that a pivotal, longtime character will not be back next season — at least not full-time. That said, I have received no confirmation that the actor/actress in question is, in fact, departing the show. Speaking of the finale, rumor has it somebody’s getting *a****d!

Question: Last chance for Glee finale scoop — whaddaya got? —Tammy
Ausiello: A mystery wrapped in an enigma topped with some cryptic sauce. Jacob Artist says he’s not sure if Jake and Marley end up in a happy place because things “might’ve changed a little bit from the original script that we all read.” And that change — which Artist describes as more of an “editing” choice — could ultimately impact several relationships on the show, “Jake and Marley included.” What does it all mean?!

If that means what I think it does, do excuse me while I roll my eyes so hard I get whiplash.

 

[Schlosser85]

The person leaving is Brittany. That's like the worst kept secret ever.

No idea what Artist is talking about, but I guess we'll find out.

 

[Sawyer]

I was talking about the *a****d. Gotta be Married, right?

I pray it isn't Klaine.

 

[Schlosser85]

There's spoilers Blaine doesn't propose, and also spoilers that Wemma is engaged again, so I'd bet it's Wemma.

 

[Havok83]

Ugh to Blaine wanting to marry Kurt. What is up with these kids and marriage. Was this supposed to be romantic?

 

[protocida]

Artist might be referencing to the catfish storyline. Blake Jenner confirmed it's one of the cliffhangers, and there'll be drama over [BLACKOUT]Marley claiming it's her[/BLACKOUT], which will both upset Jake and give Ryder some hope.

 

[Primal Slayer]

BORING. And I don't know why the writers didn't just have Brittany break her leg instead of doing this whole MIT thing. Then they could've had her in a wheelchair for half a season.

 

[protocida]

Spoilers.

Spoiler

Rachel's only scene in "All or Nothing" is her callback.

Will and Emma get married after Regionals.

Brittany is the one who's leaving. MIT is so impressed by her SAT scores they want her to join immediately. She breaks up with Sam, has a heart-to-heart with Santana, and a goodbye speech after the wedding.

Also, the actors have filmed two different endings, and don't know which one they'll use. There are a few different versions of the same scenes throughout the episode as well.

 

[Primal Slayer]

This whole Brittany thing is so stupid. They act like they cant get around HeMos pregnancy so they have Britt graduating basically 2 months early?

 

[Schlosser85]

Maybe Heather wants off.

Wheelchairs, the perfect way to hide a pregnancy.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Maybe Heather wants off.

She probably does, but that doesn't mean come up with yet another stupid storyline.

 

[SpideyFan866]

Is it just me or did [BLACKOUT]Unique[/BLACKOUT] being that Catfish ruin this storyline?

 

[Sawyer]

It's hard to ruin what's already a turd to begin with...

 

[spideyboy_1111]

i actually found the most believable one to be unique.. it's pretty damn common for gay/bisexual/transgendered kids to pretend to be someone else online when they're young and insecure. I think it's actually a pretty "real" storyline, which im all for on glee. Vs their bizarrely over dramatic soap opera elements.
