And I Am Telling You:

How could this girl have not gotten onto American Idol?  This song, even outside the context of Dreamgirls, has a huge emotional impact...
"I'm going to hug you now." Rachel to Mercedes

"Well I do have something I've been working on since I was four" - Don't Rain on My Parade:


You Can't Always Get What You Want:


How 'bout the chick from True Blood being Candace Dystra. "They weren't singing, they were like honking..."

The only not awesome thing about the episode was Eve's lame acting...and the soft pretzel craving it gave us.

Terri coming clean with the truth of what she was experiencing kinda made me want to give her another chance in the future, which is good, because I know she's going to be back. She does need to pay some penance though...

Principal Figgins schooling Sue Sylvester was awesome. "My word is official. Let it be written."

"Get ready to board the Sue Sylvester Express. Destination HORROR."

My Life Would Suck Would Without You (Glee):

Anyone notice all the choreography is a call back to previous numbers? Pay close attention for the Tina-KatyPerry-audition-thigh-chop.

And the kisssssssssssssss.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sigh.....swoon...... <3 <3 <3... perfect edit to cut out too.

I can't wait for their prep for regionals. Sigh.

Favorite lines of the episode:
Brittany about Patches the homeless guy outside the library who was a former Glee club kid shown in the Thunderclap: "he barks at my mom"
"I could use a lieutenant, I have over 65 proposals." Rachel on adding a Glee club co-captain

Most potential prophetic statement, especially since all of the eps were in the can before the show went on the air:
Rachel before shooting the commercial: "guys, I want us to always remember this moment. Soon there may be agents and managers and movie deals, but right now I want us to remember what it feels like to be here together as a team."

The fight that Will and Terri have towards the end of the episode is some for real acting...and was really well done.
Quinn's standing up to Sue Sylvester was where she turned a corner to human...(so says my husband).

Hairography ... aka "The Art of Distraction"

Sometimes a guest star isn't as bright as the regular cast, and that was the case IMO with Eve. They should have gotten someone with some comedy experience who was at her star-power level.

Favorite line of the episode:
"Rachel somehow manages to dress like a grandmother and a toddler at the same time." -Kirk
Other awesome lines:
Brittany teaching hairography: "K, so you guys, it's like cool epilepsy."
Santana to Quinn: "asking a guy to babysit is so 90s."
