IT'S SHOWTIME! Or should I say ho-time? (I'm looking at
you Cassie)
This week was all about McKinley High's amateur yet strangely
professional and flawless production of the greatest musical of all time:
Grease, a musical all about fixing cars... really? I thought it was a love
story? either way either
way let's take a blood oath with ma brothaz
and get the bottles poppin for another solid Glee Season 4 Episode!
As in typical Glee fashion, no performance can go on
without first overcoming some haters and obstacles, and this play was no
different.
Obstacle #1 Mr.
Shue is leaving. My reaction was the same as Unique's (what's the fuss
about?) but everyone seemed distressed because Finn is the new coach and is not
qualified to do anything but give inspirational talks to Rachel.
Obstacle #2 Sue is back like she left something. So NOW IT
ALL MAKES SENSE, why Finn was so strangely offensive last week by calling Sue's
baby retarded! They needed some conflict so that Sue hates Glee again and so that the boys have a reason to perform
in an auto shop.
Obstacle #3 Unique
was pulled out of the play. Although Unique's parents are fine with Unique
being a unique girl on a unique stage in Chicago and in the confines of
Unique's own home, they do not want to risk Unique's safety by allowing Unique to
perform in drag in OHIO OF ALL PLACES. QUICK...WE NEED A NEW RIZZO!
:::Flashback to my blog from last week:::
"she [Unique] WAS NOT BORN TO PLAY RIZZO THAT ROLE
BELONGS TO SANTANA FREAKING LOPEZ SO EVERYONE SHUT UP."
Ok either I am part-psychic or Ryan Murphy has been
reading my blog and then changing his scripts.
Either possibility works for me. So Santana returns (they conveniently left off
her reasoning for being back in town just in time for us to not care) to play
Rizzo and Unique is left looking dramatic in the audience.
Obstacle #4 Marley
may or may not be in the early stages of an eating disorder. (Maggie/Brittany totally called this!)
Kitty Kat, that sly dog, is still on the warpath and in her infinite wisdom
tricked skinny ass Marley into thinking she was gaining weight and on the way
to swan diving into her fat genetic pool. Feeling paranoid about her destiny, Marley went to
her mom for advice. And instead of hearing the normal " girl you're amazing just the
way you are", or the " that's what makes you
beautiful" or the "baby you were born this way" pep
talk, Marley's mom encouraged her to fight to be thin and beautiful? Huh?
Shouldn't there have been something in there about as long as you are healthy
that is all that is important? This is why bitches are
messed up in the head. THIN IS ALWAYS IN and it's so exhausting. Happy Hunger Games! But I digress.
At her girls only + Unique sleepover, Kitty urged Marley
to give Bulemia a whirl, come on everyone is doing it! Even for Kitty that was
messed up- but Marley isn't smart enough to step on a scale and realize that
she actually hasn't gained a pound so she started on her downward spiral. Just
when Marley reached her lowest point and decided to take a trip to the Wiz Palace, none other
than BLAKE/RYDER stepped in to provide an inspirational story about laxatives
and publicly shitting yourself. Sigh. Blake is so dreamy.
So Marley changed into an EVEN TIGHTER outfit which made Blake
go all bow chicka wow wow. Which teaches us all the valuable lesson that it
doesn't matter if you are fat or skinny as long as you are a slut.
But seriously, where was Glee's lesson on body acceptance?
Maybe that''ll come later and this was just a warm-up. Also Blake and Marley
kissed! I am so into it!
Now let's all go to Gullah Gullah island aka NYADA
Back in dance class, Kate Hudson was vewy sneakay and up
to no good. She hired Brody as her TA, and then got Rachel to leave town after
being metaphorically bitched slapped when Rachel suggested that she try to get
back in the game. Rachel, Cassandra is a baddd bitch and she is THE GAME. THE GAME
IS THE GAME AND MY
NAME IS MY NAME. And Cassie and Brody got it on and of course Cassandra
rubbed it in Rachel's face like a true boss.
Poor Rachel. We all know that feeling when you are in an
emotionally fragile state trying to get over one boy by liking another one and
then the new boy turns out to be an asshole too and it feels like you have been
stabbed in the pelvis by 500 tiny little knives. That is what we witnessed in
this episode. Kudos to Glee for a 15th straight brilliant Finchel scene, as
Finn witnessed Rachel's 1 kind of crying and realize it wasn't for him. But it
kind of was right? That's why she ran out of the auditorium... but regardless
it's over for real now. And they will not be in contact at all...not even in
song. And scene.
Overall Grade for the Episode A
Overall Grade for the Episode A
Here is why I loved this episode: Great music. Plot fit
into the songs and songs added to the plot. A couple genius moments and Rachel
looks less crazy. Also I thought that Rachel and Kurt's return was extremely
realistic and it takes a lot for Glee to be realistic.
Favorite
Moment of the Episode: There were many, but this line from Sue took the
cake: "This just one of your
ill conceived bizarrely sentimental schemes that displays absolutely no
forethought and appears immediately ridiculous to everyone in America except
you."
Least
Favorite Moment of the Episode Tina throwing a tantrum about
Finn becoming the director. Bitch back up.
Favorite
Performance(s) of the Episode:
They were all so good but my favorite was You're the One that I Want and here's
why:
Marley and Ryder started it off with a bang. Sounded so
good, great dancing and acting. So fun and awesome! Would have already been my
favorite without the genius twist. When they freaking turned that shit into a
flashback..... I will try to describe my feelings now. I was so happy to see
the old gang up there performing and especially knowing that this was just in
their imaginations so it wasn't corny or anything. BUT THEN THE FLASHBACK TO
RACHEL AND FINN IN SEASON 1 AND RACHEL DRESSED LIKE SHE WAS WHEN SHE TRIED TO
SEDUCE FINN... and singing the words "You're the one that I want." My
heart lowered all the way to the floor but my brain was still up and singing
along to the music. I was verklempt to say the least. And this is easily my
favorite performance of the season so far.
Other
Great Performances:
Beauty
School Dropout -Not to be repetitive but Blaine is the most perfect
human being ever created and then you throw in Sugar Motta and you have just
spun pure gold rumplestilskin!
Greased
Lightning Sam Evans is the show and he sounded so perfect. Mike
Chang FULL OUT PEACE OUT.
Sandra Dee
(Marley)- so perfect and wonderful! Get it girl!
There
are Worst Things I Could Do- Never thought I would be happy
to see Kate Hudson sing. All 3 (Santana, Unique and Cassie) sounded so good and
the words worked with the plot, although I'm confused who pissed in Santana's
cheerios.
Look at
me I'm Sandra Dee (Kitty) About jumped out of my seat when they
transitioned into this and put on Marley's wack hat. Could have done without
the handstand booty pop (slut ass Brittany) but the whole thing was so cute.
