Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And I'm confused - Idina's character wanted to Jesse facilitate her meeting Rachel AND break her heart?

This was confusing me, too. It's possible that something else was supposed to happen with the planted tape -- Idina's character couldn't have known that Rachel would sneak into that rehearsal and hear her sing -- but I can't figure out what that would have been.

I think that at first we were supposed to think that Idina sicced Jesse on Rachel to break her heart, then feel badly when it was revealed that the reason why she sicced Jesse on Rachel was so that she could meet her daughter. And now we're back to Operation Destroy Rachel With A Broken Heart.

I think what spun my head over the whole thing was the "I don't want to hurt her" (or something like that) said by Jesse in the "previously on" bits.

There were so many watch from the hall moments mixed in with way too funny bits. Will be interesting to rewatch, but I'm not chomping at the bit to hit up Tivo as I usually am.

now we're back to Operation Destroy Rachel With A Broken Heart.

Except as Rachel was running off to meet him in the parking lot all I could think was "Girl, don't be so dumb."

amen. The plethora of Range Rovers should have been a clue.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

For you people, I am rewatching. Moments I loved: Sue's face when Will picks up the sheet music, that the Good Vibrations choreo was definitely influenced by the original video, Sue's pearls, Mike's ridiculously high level of Good Vibrations appreciation (wonder if he did the choreo), "Vive la difference!", the preggo Swan Lake, and the final number.

That was a weird episode.

Ahh, just read that Fox switched this episode and the Lady Gaga episode for the purposes of sweeps, which is why the Rachel/Jesse/Shelby thing is so confusing.

But Jesse wasn't in the Lady Gaga episode. The whole "I don't want to hurt her" was in the episode (Dream On) before that. So even with a switch, it is still odd.

Glee is a show that I will never, ever praise for it's writing. But I still enjoy it. I just can't think about it too hard.
