OMG OMG OMG THAT WAS SO GOOD! Good use of characters, storylines progressed, the music was both interesting and pretty well integrated into the story and most importantly...

Kurt is home! Dear God, I hope Blaine does transfer next season, them occasionally hugging is not gonna cut it for me, relationship-wise (plus, Darren!) Chris sounded so so good on his solo, and looked fucking fierce for the whole episode (pity Blaine didn't get to see him during the Born This Way number - I think Karofsky would have got a show that really made him look sour).

It's a bit of a shame that Kurt didn't get to have more agency (story of Kurt's life this season, shit happens to him, he never gets to control his own destiny), though I loved his stillness during the meeting in Figgin's office, it was so controlled amongst the chaos, and the way he took charge when he and Karofsky were alone.

On the other hand, can't be all that annoyed, cause Santana's handling of Karofsky and getting Kurt was home was just fucking EPIC! I adore her so much, I don't know what to say. Also, I could almost get behind Brittana when Brittany was telling Santana off (the "or you'd put the shirt on and dance with me?" bit), because Brittany was real and coherent in a way that she too rarely is.

Will continues to be more of an ass than anything else, but holy crap, I was actually impressed with how Glee ended up handling Emma's therapy. About the only thing that didn't quite work for me was Quinn's backstory (oh, poor Quinn - except no, she's a fucking bully who tormented Rachel and others, and has never really apologised or made amends), and it still wasn't that bad - not like the magical cripple subplot in Laryngitis (1x18 - I can make episode parallels too, Glee!)

The flashmob was fun, even if it wasn't nearly as good as the Artie dream sequence (and I was wishing Blaine would pop up!), the Warblers number was sweet, they made me enjoy Born This Way more than I expected (and seriously, did I mention how hot Kurt was?) and the Rachel/Quinn mashup was really really good.

A+ work, Glee. Can you please try to keep that up? Make every episode super-sized if you need to!

Yes, all of this. Amongst all of my delighted flailing about the house (my SHOW is BACK!!) I managed to form only a few coherent thoughts:

-->Kurt? THOSE are sexy faces. That boy is FIERCE.
-->WHY NO BLAINE AT MALL???
-->Puckerman's vomit face had me rolling on the floor. See also: Puckerman's BTW T-shirt.
-->Will? Do not try to treat Emma. I know you meant well, honey, but completely unwashed fruit is a bad, bad idea. She doesn't need to scrub the damn grapes, but she really should rinse them off at least.
-->I totally called it that SOWK would be staged to be the song that transitioned Kurt from Warbler!world back to McKinley (I know the scene was leaked, but I am spoiler-averse), and it was perfect. "I'll never say goodbye to you." ::wibble::

Oh, show. I hope it continues to be good the rest of the season. <3

I just added an example of your first point ;)

OMG I'd almost forgotten about the vomit face - brilliant!

I was torn between being glad that Will got through to Emma, and just hating him and his methods >:(

I'm totally as spoiler-adverse as I can be in this fandom (there's always so much information floating around that I end up learning some stuff I'd prefer not to). But I definitely don't watch clips or listen to songs in advance.

Oh. Oh. Oh dear. Now I fear I will get nothing at all done today, because I will just be sitting and staring at that gif.

Gnah.

Haven't seen this or last week's ep yet (fuck you Gwyneth Paltrow, you had to ruin the last bit of Matthew Morrison that was keeping me to this show), but this ---> oh, poor Quinn - except no, she's a fucking bully who tormented Rachel and others, and has never really apologised or made amends

THIS SO FUCKING MUCH. THIS IS WHY I HATE QUINN. AND THIS IS WHY I JUDGE PEOPLE WHO SAY QUINN IS THEIR HERO.

Last week was boring and mostly pointless (the only bit you must see has...what a surprise...Kurt/Blaine/Santana/Karofsky.

This week was SO GOOD :D

Who the fuck says that? Were they dropped on their head as a baby?

People who wanted to be cheerleaders in high school? I DON'T KNOW.

I don't care about this show anymore, SO WHY AM I STILL SO INVESTED.
