Hey. New board.
I loved the lobster glasses. And Quinn's pink eyelash things were also very cool. The hoof shoes were extremely impressive, though.
Overall I was kind of "meh" on the episode, though.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
It seems to have left me with a permanent earworm of Bad Romance. eh ... could be worse (like the time I spent a week earwormed with the theme from Green Acres ... shudder)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Good. I was earwormed (no lie) for 2 weeks for that Gaga/Beyonce Telephone song. I didn't even hear it on the radio. I saw the video twice and my brain was taken over.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
All Lady Gaga earworms turn into Poker Face for me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
that's probably the one song of hers that doesn't do it for me, for some reason. I had "Let's Dance" as an earworm for 4-6 weeks. I could not shake it.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I can't say I loved the "Poker Face" duet (if you're as serious about a singing career as Rachel is, and you're only getting one chance to fulfill your lifelong dream of singing a duet with your mother, I don't know why you'd choose that song). But it was very well done, and bonus points for so completely reimagining the song.
Moving Carol and Finn in was handled very, very poorly. The first time Finn heard about it was as the move was happening? And yeah, about the only thing Kurt did right was put in a privacy screen. Still doesn't justify Finn's language (though "this stupid chair" and "those ridiculous curtains" wouldn't have bothered me nearly as much). And points to Burt for defending Kurt from Finn's language.
And while there were so many great touches with the costumes, Finn stole the show at the end as the Fire King.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.

Did you see the "privacy screen"? It was one of those that wasn't solid. It had shapes cut out of it.
I completely loved Burt's reaction. Finn definitely crossed a line when he used "faggy", but I really hate how Kurt got off scott free. He has been persuing Finn. Heck, the only reason he set up his father with Finn's mother was for the selfish reason of getting closer to Finn.
And as for Poker Face, I think I sat there with my jaw on the ground when I realized what they were singing. Why Rachel? Why?

I think that it just happened to be there, and it showed that Rachel was appreciating her as a singer not as a mother.
