Glee 1x16 and oh no April's back

Puck, secretly hoping his feelings for Finn are not unrequited.

(Confused? Here's an explanation!)

I love that Sue calls both Mercedes and Kurt "Ladies". I find it endearing. At Kurt's age (and still now), I didn't mind being lumped with the girls and actually found it quite honorable. I understand why people take issue with this but I like it.

Later in the episode, Kurt doesn't appreciate that his dad Others him as Not A Guy. And it makes sense! When Sue says Kurt's a lady, it gives him a sense of belonging (which is strengthened with Mercedes, a friend, being part of that same group). When Burt says Kurt's not a guy like him and Finn, he removes Kurt's sense of belonging and doesn't replace it with anything. That's why the Sue moment is fine in my book, and why Burt's is more hurtful.

And Mercedes follows Kurt's hair thing! They're cute. When does Kurt stop his hair thing?

We know Will's uneasy because he doesn't wear his typical brand of shirt. This... is hip. This is gothic. This... This? This is radical. Okay not but seriously it's a weird shirt for Will.

Anyway this is the episode where Carole and Burt are determined to sink Finn/Kurt by making them step-brothers, not that it ever stopped brilliant minds on the Internet.

I don't like April but she *IS* an LGBT ally and you know what? It does make me feel better about her.

The lighting is very pretty, I love me some pink.

Gosh she's gorgeous. Red is *her* color.

Santana letting her head fall on Brittany's shoulder because they're at the back of the room so nobody's gonna look at them except Kurt but he's gay so he won't tell.

So Kurt made the whole situation hella awkward with his song, what a drama queen!

It's so funny that he didn't expect Finn and Burt to hit it off.

I love the two seconds of ASMR after Mercedes faints, when she gets examined. And Quinn's there to support her! I love Quinn! She's the best! *squees* Meanwhile the rest of the Glee Club is having fun at April's roller rink because we all love tones clashing like that!

Finn's dorky faces are always a delight.

And Mercedes is right, by the way. We're beautiful. You are beautiful.

- Sue tells Mercedes she has to lose ten pounds by the end of the week for the magazine interview

- Finn to Kurt “I live in a closet; there’s cowboy wallpaper on the walls.”

- also, Rachel sits by Finn a lot, even when they aren’t dating

- Carole Is getting rid of her their old furniture

- Finn doesn’t want his dad’s chair to be sold because it’s the only thing he has left to remember his father

- Carole tells Finn she’s dating Burt Hummel, Kurt’s dad

- Finn asks Kurt about their parents dating; they met at a P/T conference

- Kurt gave Carole a makeover

- Kurt sings “A House is Not a Home” at glee club and it’s pretty much directed at Finn; Finn then sings it to his dad’s chair

- April moves in with Will, even though Will isn’t comfortable with it

- Will and April sing “One Less Bell to Answer/Home”

- during the montage, Will puts the photo of himself and Teri in his drawer; then Will helps April make up the couch; April ends up in Will’s bed

- The Hummels and Hudsons are at dinner at Breadstix; Burt and Finn bond over football and Kurt gets upset

- even though this isn’t my favorite episode, I appreciate that they spent time discussing blended families, grief, eating disorders, and positive body image

- the reporter and Sue have a conversation before the performance; he was short listed for a Pulitzer and Sue thought he’d be a woman because his name is Tracey

- The Cheerios sing “Beautiful;” the glee club along with other students go down to the floor to sing with her

- Tracey was impressed with Mercedes being a Cheerio; he was originally planning to expose Sue and her ignorance; he calls her a visionary but little does he know that she had nothing to with choosing that song 😒

- Burt comes over to talk to Finn; he loves Carole; Finn invites him to watch a game; Kurt watches through the patio door

- April got 2.2m for hush money from Buddy and she bought the auditorium
