Fans finally get to hear some Coldplay on Glee! It’s a great song but it’s not sung by the kids. Mr. Schue is belting out the ballad. It’s a little different from his usual rapping. No word on what he might be yearning to “fix” in this episode but it’s apparently a tearjerker!
Listen to the song here:
Well Eonline sure seems to think so! Kristin claims that if you only watch one show next week, it better be Glee. This is the episode where the divas face off and parents are introduced. We know from the preview that we will be seeing Mike’s but we’re pretty excited to see Emma’s as well. Click for details and of course Spoilers on why this episode of Glee may be the best episode ever..and why you’ll cry!
Cling to your roots Glee!
As you fans know, Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and the cast has been telling us for months that Glee is returning to its roots, focusing on the core characters instead of guest stars, and getting back to the emotional crux that made many of us fall in love with the show in the first place.
Well, get ready to fall again. This Tuesday’s episode, “Asian F,” not only presents one of the best storylines for fan-favorite underdog character Mike Chang (Harry Shum Jr.), it also presents the best work we’ve seen yet from Amber Riley, Heather Morris, Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison and Jayma Mays. And even better, some of you fans will be elated to hear that Mr. Schuester and Rachel are once again likable and relatable. (So long, cocky manwhore and grating diva!)
The storylines are tight, grounded, completely believable and emotionally gripping. The musical numbers are mind-blowingly good and introduced through organic, and yet unexpected, ways.
Oh yeah, and you will cry.
Without giving too much away, here’s a little scoop on what you can expect from Tuesday’s Glee:
- An awesome Heather Morris number: “Run the World (Girls).” (You may feel an uncontrollable urge to get up and dance.)
- Harry Shum Jr.’s first solo. It’ll blow you away! He is amazing in this episode, and proves himself fully worthy as a full-fledged series regular. Also, there’s a scene with his mom that will make you cry.
- The best Amber Riley performance ever, as she seeks to prove she’s a lead in her West Side Story audition.
- A “Maria-Off” between Rachel and Mercedes that “we’ll be talking about forever,” per Kurt.
- My favorite-ever Will and Emma scene toward the end of the episode. (Bring Kleenex.)
- A “supremacist” storyline that will make you laugh…then cry.
- A nod to The Glee Project. (There are auditions for the school play, you know!)
- A Mercedes twist that changes the course of the season.
Coach Bieste perhaps sums up this episode best: Prepare to be “emotionally pancaked.”
It’s that good.
Shelby is back in town! She’s recruited by Sugar’s super rich dad to start a second show choir at Mckinley. Apparently with enough money you can convince yourself your daughter has some talent. Shelby’s return brings up some hurt emotions all around. Rachel doesn’t want to see the mother who rejected her..unless they can sing a powerful duet on stage somewhere. Together, they sing Somewhere and oof. Chills!
Shelby, now living in the area, has of course brought Beth with her. Shelby would love to have both Quinn and Puck in her life but not while Quinn is off being a bad lifetime movie stereotype. Her deeper voice is so embarrassing. Not half as embarrassing as how she’s acting though. Puck, is cleaning himself up in order to see Beth and even shows up to see her with a demonic clown drawing. So fatherly <3. In all seriousness, I am LOVING how all these other cast members are getting all of these lines. Puck’s scene with Shelby is great and touching. Quinn joins Sue in making a video about how the arts drove her to fall from grace. Yeah, it’s a big pile of b.s. When Quinn goes to Schue’s office to blame him for her life, Schue flips out, yells at her, and tells her to grow up. It’s kind of beautiful and making me actually like Schue for once. Shelby tells Quinn that if she wants to be in Beth’s life, she needs to change. Quinn shows up to Glee rehearsals blonde again and in one of her prairie dresses. It’s all an act. She tells Puck she wants to get full custody. Girl are you trippin?? That’s like, probably not even possible unless you’re on a very special episode of Law and Order! I hope she doesn’t start to corrupt Puck just as I’m starting to love his character. In other news, Vocal Adrenaline has fired Dustin (Nooooooo :() and now has no leader. At least Artie appreciated how handsome he was. Schue thinks this is the perfect time for the group to step it up and creates a mandatory Booty Camp. Lead by Mike, it will help some members of the group who aren’t as swift on their feet. Mike is getting all of these lines and I just don’t know how to react. I can’t handle it! Also, I’m pretty sure I saw one of Mike’s dance moves in Grease 2 during Reproduction. Just sayin’. I dedicate the scene of Finn mastering some dance moves to my lovely friend Stephanie. The school play is being cast and in addition to running for president (in which Brittany is running against him), Kurt finds himself auditioning against Blaine. And the big question of Blaine’s fate is revealed: Blaine is a junior. Blaine feels that because he’s younger than Kurt, any lead roles will go to him. Kurt is happy about this and auditions with I Am The Greatest Star. He thinks he does a great job until he overhears Beiste, Emma, and Artie (who have been hired to direct the play) saying that Kurt is just not believable as straight. Kurt thinks he needs to butch it up and auditions again with Rachel doing a romantic scene. Everyone, including Rachel, holds back laughter during it.
Blaine tries his hand at auditioning with Something’s Coming. Okay, I’m sorry. Is there a reason Blaine doesn’t own a pair of socks? His shoes probably stink. He does a great job and everyone loves it but is surprised when Blaine says he only wants a minor role. They ask him to reconsider the part of the lead and we are left with quite the cliffhanger. Dun dun DUN.
Funniest Quotes of the Night:
Uhoh. Is there trouble in paradise for Kurt and Blaine? TVLine is reporting that a hot new guy has been cast and will be setting his eyes on Blaine. Watch out Kurt, this guy is pretty. And his name is Sebastian. That name just means business.
Spoilers:
It looks like the honeymoon is over for Kurt and Blaine.
Sources confirm to TVLine exclusively that Glee has tapped up-and-coming theater actor Grant
Gustin to play the recurring role of Sebastian, a gay Dalton Academy Warbler who sets his sights on Blaine.
Both Fox and the show’s producers declined to comment, but the buzz is that Sebastian is the polar opposite of Kurt in every possible way. He’s more like the male version of Santana in that he’s both promiscuous and kinda-sorta scheming.
“He’s our villain this season,” an insider tells me. “It’s a major role.”
Consider yourself warned, Kurt.
