Hang on! There WAS no Sue Sylvester! And Glee still survived (and enjoyably so) without her. Not my problem." - Shelby proving that Vocal Adrenaline really are professionals compared to the Gleesters of New Directions. Just because you're being forced to wear metal underwear. "Ladies, I don't want to hear about chafing. Tina explaining why she's not a secret-vampire Goth like Mr Figgins suspects: "My parents won't even let me watch Twilight - my mum thinks Kristin Stewart seems like a bitch"

But when you take into account the setting here - a small town in middle America that, yes, might not be the most accepting or open place in the world - and the fact that Ryan Murphy, the creator of the show, grew up in a very similar place and situation, you can see why it's a theme that he feels warrants repetition. This is one storyline they're not dropping. It was the Fin/Kurt storyline that was a tearjerker, of course, leading to another powerful scene from Mike O'Malley as Kurt's father Burt, a character who has gone from acceptance of his son's sexuality through loving support and, here, strong vocal defence. Hurray!).Īnd that apart, it was yet another strong episode (though clearly slightly less so than last week's feast of Whedon/NPH excitement), where the silliness of the set-up served only to allow the audience to enjoy the escapism of the rest, as well as shining a light on some of the quieter, more moving performances.

Fin gets teased by some of the more neanderthal football players, and lets slip a homophobic slur on his new roommate Kurt before being upbraided by Kurt's dad, repenting and donning a dress made out of a red plastic shower curtain to say sorry. But after giving their parent/daughter relationship a go for about 45 minutes, the pair decide that they are better off admiring each other from afar. Rachel, sneaking in to a Vocal Adrenaline rehearsal for a spot of show-choir subterfuge, hears Shelby singing and thus discovers her mother.

And yet, they end up embracing the task by looking to Kiss who, in their skin-tight leather, dramatic mullet-wigs and full face make up, are considered the very height of theatrical masculinity to American Rock Fans.

The boys are upset by this, complaining that so many of the projects they work on play to the strengths and fancies of the female Gleesters. Tina searches for a new look, which inspires Mr Shue to set homework of theatricality. Instead he's threatening to close down Tina's right to self-expression, banning her from dressing like a goth (because he fears the teenage-vampire uprising brought about by Twilight and its like, obviously). Principal Figgins is taking a week off from threatening to close the Glee club.
