Here's what you missed on Glee: New Directions are going against two
choirs with equally ridiculous names, Lima is going to be hit by a
ladybug meteor\ asteroid, Ryder serenaded a girl who didn't even know
him with an iconic love song and Sam keeps innocent cats trapped in his
backpack and let me tell you, the cat wasn't amused.
I truly loved every minute of this episode. Some parts didn't make sense to me but all in all, it was one of the best episodes Glee has ever done. The built up of the catfish story was good and I can not wait to find out who the person behind this scheme is. Having him jump to the conclusion that it was either Jake or Marley was a little weird though, even if the scene was so well played.
Brittany was her usual bubbly, hilarious self (at least at the beginning of the episode) and watching the ND singing a love song to a cat was surprisingly very funny. My favorite part was the incredulous looks the ND exchanged when they realized that this is not a song between Brittany and Sam but between Brittany and Lord Tubbington.
The scene between Beiste and Will in the locker room didn't make much sense to me. Because even if Beiste believed that Will and Emma are over, A) Emma is her friend so going after her fiance didn't sit right with me, B) when did Beiste ever show romantic interest in Will? and C) why the hell didn't Will tell her that he and Emma are back together right away?. Will's reaction was very respectful though and they solved the matter like the adults they were (thank God).
From the very second the first shot echoed through Mckinley, we were treated to the best acting the Glee cast has ever done. From Sam's frantic tries to go and find Brittany, to Brittany's choked terror, Blaine's mute shut-down, Kitty's dive into Unique's arms, Ryder's insistence to get in touch with Katie, Artie's video of goodbye messages, Tina's desire to join her friends and Marley's failed attempts at contacting her mother. Will was like the perfect teacher in the situation and him going out to find Brittany was heartwarming.
The shooting might have just taken 10 minutes on screen but it was the most horrifying and tear-jerking moments of Glee. The cast caught the reality of human emotions when faced by such a terrorizing events and it was like we had most of the possible different reactions happening at the same place. Chord Overstreet, Heather Morris and Darren Criss truly stand out though. The scene when Will had to physically restrain Sam to prevent him from leaving made me burst into tears, so did Brittany's petrification when she heard someone going into the bathroom and the breath she let out when she discovered it was Will, and don't get me started on how perfect Darren was in portraying Blaine's triad of emotions.
What really hit me in those scenes though was the use of sounds. The silence that swept over the whole school with only the sound of panted breaths and muffled cries disrupting it and how Glee turned simple things like the ticking of a metronome, the vibration of a phone, the sound of shower water hitting the tiles and the dripping of tab water in sinks into clanging shines of doom. The metronome is particular sounded like both a mix of racing heart beats and a countdown to disaster.
Have to say that I didn't see Becky being the shooter coming. They did a very good built up with her conversation with Brittany and while having Sue assume the responsibility to protect Becky was a move that Sue would do, we are still faced with the fact that Becky thought that the best way to protect herself was to bring a loaded gun to the school. Not to mention that now she would be faced with the guilt of being the reason Sue lost her job. I certainly hope they deal with this part in future episodes.
I'm seriously in love with Bram now. There wasn't a second in the episode that I didn't feel Sam's love for Brittany and their fake family part was great, even if Lady Tubbington looked like she was gonna rip Sam apart for keeping her in a backpack.
Can RIB write more scenes that have Blaine laughing this teary squeaky laugh more often? I'm just absolutely in love with it. That whole scene was cute as hell and please tell me it marked the end of Tina's bitchy persona, I miss nice Tina.
Say was perfect in every way. The coming together of the Glee club and the way they were all bonding with each other and touching each other was really moving. Also, I'm seriously shipping Artie and Kitty (Kartie?), make this happen Glee.
