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.

Yeah, that's my problem with the Finn-Finn's mom-Burt and Kurt thing. Finn is always the last to know. How is it possible that his mother didn't think it was a good idea to NOT surprise him with the move?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My Grandmother came home one day and told her four children that she had married my Grandpa John and he moved in that day. None of them knew they were even dating. Of course, that was in the 40s.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Scrappy, without knowing all the details, I see other differences, too. Finn had to do the moving, and he had to adjust to a new stepbrother on top of it.

The ages of the kids may also be a factor. When you're 3 or 4, your life happens much more at the whim of your parents than when you're (like Finn) in high school.

I didn't think they were getting married, just moving in.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I really really really wanted Rachel and Shelby to do "For Good". I'm hoping all my tiaras that its done by April and Shelby at the end of the season.

I think that this would be a good song for Quinn and Rachel.
