"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Vortex,
I find it hard to believe that Rachel would tell Finn about Quinn right before sectionals. She would know how much it would upset him, and how could she not consider that. I would think that her desire to win would supercede everything else.
I think Rachel was on the side of: stress is fucking Finn up, so I'm not sure this news would exactly be worse. She's pretty self-centered so I think it was exactly as she said to Quinn later - that she thought Finn would go for her after finding out about Quinn. Which he may do.
I don't really like how they do the parallel thing between the "adults" and the "teens", but make sure that one couple has a different outcome than the other. I ultimately don't really care if any of them get together or not (however, I discovered at the end of last night's episode that I really want Shue and Mays' character to get together in all their dysfunction).
And yes: Brittany and Santana are having sex.

That's a great post, le nubian--thanks! I'll have to poke through the archive and read the person's reviews of previous eps.
I liked this observation:
Favourite visual of the episode: Emma on the phone with Will describing Artie ramming himself into the wall, and Artie ramming himself into the wall in the background. So great.
That was very funny. Oh, and in the final number for Shue, I liked the use of choreography from previous numbers from the season (Push It, the country number with April Rhodes, etc.)--brings a nice bookend to the first half of the season.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, *that's* why they were line dancing. /clueless

“Not dead yet!”
Yeah, that routine was full of little choreographic shout-outs to their earlier routines.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Brittany is my favorite secondary character now. Some of her line deliveries are genius.

Hey. New board.
I agree, Dana.
"Can anybody tell me what a ballad is?" "It's a male duck!" was genius.
I also liked somebody's (Kurt's?) description of her when he said "... is cheating off of somebody who thinks the square root of 4 is rainbows!"
I told my students I would give credit to that answer, if it ever comes up in a problem, but it hasn't come up yet.

Oh, man, Colbert's thesaurus habit at the end of last night's TDS is cracking me up.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm watching "The Office" US for the first time and I could not get over one particular scene in the episode "Sexual Harassment."
It was the scene where Dwight asked the HR guy where the clitoris is and what a woman's vagina looks like. That scene has laid me out laughing each of the 4 times I watched it. I could not get over how funny I found it. The capper was the HR guy lamenting how poor Dwight's public education was.
I just find that so hilarious.
