Glee: Don't Forget Your Vitamin D!
We suppose it's a natural plot progression that drug abuse would follow Kristin Chenoweth's alcoholic shenanigans on Glee. Whatever the reason, we were loving the absolutely hilarious fast-talking, hyperactive head-nodding and amazing mash-up performances. Among our favorite bits: Boys vs. Girls
Once again, the kids of Glee put on incredible performances. While the harmony by the girls in their "Halo/Walking on Sunshine" mash-up was flawless, We have to say the boys put on a better show. The jerky, wired drug effects actually lent themselves to rock n' roll foot stomping, and Puck's mohawk almost looked appropriate for once. It's hard to ignore the boy-band vibe they were giving off, but the killer dance steps, leather jackets and amazing vocals make up for it.
That said, Rachel's pre-performance speech was like a combination of her normal self-righteousness and Elmo on speed, and therefore hilarious. Plus, all of the girls were sincerely having a great time with their number.
Sue Sylvester
Ol' Sue had some classic lines in this episode, particularly when she tells "Ellen" that her blouse is "just insane." The journal scene was a perfect vehicle for her scathing inner monologue - hopefully there will be more entries we'll peek in on in the future.
There's more after the jump -- read on!
Kurt
There was considerably less Kurt featured in this episode, but we suppose our favorite little glee cherub can't steal the show every time. However, his minimal contributions were pure gold. Instinctively migrating to the girls' team and having his costume ideas nixed by the boys due to their involving "several varieties of exotic bird feathers" was priceless.
Finn
His inner monologue ("She has a smokin' hot bod, you know, if you're not into boobs...") and zingers at Rachel ("What's up, A-Rach?") gave our bumbling jock some much appreciated wit.
Terri
While Terri did provide a lot of the comic thrust with her "Vitamin D" popping encouragement, there were some times when her immaturity and selfishness were a little too much to handle. Refusing to help Quinn with her maternity expenses was pretty heinous, especially since the two seem to identify with each other on a lot of points.
However, although she didn't take the school nurse position with the cleanest of motives, she did genuinely seem to think that pseudoephedrine was helping the students. Will telling her that she always made his little fires "burn the forest down" definitely struck a nerve.
Ken
Can we just say that Ken is absolutely adorable? Because he is. We don't care if he pulled out Emma's cubic zirconium engagement ring from his fanny pack. He is a pudgy bundle of joy.
With that in mind, he deserves much better than Emma. Sweet though she is, he needs someone who actually likes him, and who won't cry for an hour when his elbow accidently brushes her breast.
All of this is setting up for some great drama: will Schue whisk Emma away from the altar? Will Emma even show up to the ceremony? Will there be extramarital hanky-panky? So many questions. Tell us what you think in the comments!
Best Quotes
Schue: But, you're not a nurse. You don't have any training.
Terri: Oh please, Will. It's a public school.
Finn: All I know is that last night I got vaporized on Level 2. Level 2. And I didn't even have the energy to care.
Kurt: Sorry, funny YouTube. It's a grape-stomping one.
Terri: Are you the one who's dating Quinn Fabray?
Finn: Yeah, why?
Terri: Oh, you have really good bone structure.
Ken: Look at the two of us. You pregnant and me with psoriasis and one testicle that won't descend. I don't know who to feel more sorry for.
Sue: I'm trying desperately to ignore the treacly-sweet inanity that is your asinine conversation, but now I've got bile in my mouth. You have to remember something: we're dealing with children. They need to be terrified. It's like mother's milk to them. Without it, their bones won't grow properly.
Kurt: I don't understand how lightning is in competition with an above-ground swimming pool.
Schue: ...just go with it.
Finn: What's up, A-Rach! Sweet mash-up, you guys were so... energetic.
Rachel: We were just taking a lesson from Major League Baseball.
Sue: It was like spotting the first spark on the Hindenburg: a quiver. That quiver will lose us nationals. And without a championship, I'll lose my endorsements. And without those endorsements, I won't be able to buy my hovercraft.
Sue: Here I am, about to turn 30, and I've sacrificed everything only to be shanghaied by the bi-curious machinations of a cabal of doughy, misshapen teens. Am I missing something, journal? Is it me? Of course it's not me.
Artie: We're planning on smacking them down like the hand of God.
