During this week's episode a few of the peripheral characters got the chance to come into their own and we also saw a few egos hit the fan. Here is what happened on last night's episode.
-Will's wife is freaking out about not being pregnant, yet is continuing to pretend she is. The wife's sister is also now in on the scheme and the two decide that she has to find a baby, like it is something you just pick out of a catalog.
- Quinn tells Finn that she is pregnant, yet they never had sex (but there was this time in a hot tub...). Because Quinn is so religious, an abortion is out of the question. We then find out that Finn's friend, Puck, got Quinn drunk and they had sex a few weeks ago. So Finn isn't the baby's father, Puck is. Also, Will's wife corners Quinn late in the episode, offering her prenatal vitamins and a shoulder to cry on. In the wife's mind, this baby could be a substitute for the one she cannot have.
- After finding out that Quinn is pregnant, Finn goes to Will crying, and confides in him. Finn does not want to be stuck in a meaningless life so he needs to go to college. Finn knows that the only way he'll get to college is if he gets a football scholarship, so Finn asks Will to work with the football team and teach them dance. Finn decides that loosening up the team will help them win and the coach decides that they have nothing to lose. The football team practices and with only seconds to go in a game, the boys break into dance, catch the other team off guard and end up winning the game. Something else good that comes from this plan: three more guys joined glee after realizing they enjoy singing and dancing.
- Kurt, when caught dancing to the song "Single Ladies" in costume with two female friends, lies to his dad and tells him he is on the football team. When his dad asks to be invited to a game, Kurt goes to Finn to help him get on the team. It just so happens that the team is down one kicker, so Kurt "auditions" and he makes the team. After playing well in front of his father, Kurt decides to come clean about his sexuality. Kurt tells his dad he is gay and he dad says he has known since Kurt was 3 years old. His dad accepts Kurt's news, even telling him he loves him just as much as before.
- Sue gets her own segment on the local television news, and she has tons of fans, but also tons of enemies. This plan to spread her reign also backfires when she receives added outside pressure to win nationals. So Sue decides to take matter into her own hands and sets into motion another plan to take down glee club. Sue blackmails the principal into hiring back Sandy, but this time he will be the school's arts director. Sue's plan is to use Sandy to help lure Rachel away from the club. Meanwhile, Rachel freaks when Will chooses Lisa to sing the lead in a West Side Story song. Will later tells Rachel that he is trying to boost the other member's self esteem by making them all think they are stars, but Rachel does not get it. She knows she is the best singer and to her that means she should always be the lead. Tina, also recognizing that Rachel is the better singer, decides to take one for the team and gives her spot to Rachel, but Will insists that Tina sing the lead. Rachel then quits, committing herself completely to the school musical instead of glee club.
So what did you think of the episode? I have to admit that when the football players all started dancing to "Single Ladies" on the field, it was a bit surreal, yet pretty amusing. Plus, I really wish Rachel would stop being such a drama queen.
