As I Understand it...

So silly me forgot to blog about last Tuesday's episode of Glee... :/ So I am going to remedy that problem right now.

I probably forgot because it was not my complete ultimate favorite. Sue Sylvester is crazy as ever of course, but this time she got to meet Olivia Newton John [my mother's personal favorite] and remake the music video for Physical.

The plot for this episode included the kids of New Directions researching their newest song assignment. Mr. Schue assigned them to find an older song with a bad reputations [preferably circa 70s-90s] and remake it to give it some pizazz.

Songs from the past episode "Bad Reputation":
1. Physical x2 -- first by just ONJ then ONJ and Sue Sylvester collaboration
2. Ice Ice Baby -- Mr. Schue with some background vox from New Directions
3. U Can't Touch This -- Kurt, Mercedes, Arty, Tina, and Brittany
4. Run Joey Run -- Rachel Berry, Puck, Finn, and Jesse
5. Total Eclipse of the Heart -- Rachel, Puck, Finn, Jesse, and New Directions

In this episode there was a "hot or not" type of list published for everyone to see for the Glee club-- with Rachel at the bottom and Quinn at the very top. At the same time, Sue Sylvester's video of her dancing at home to Olivia Newton John's "Physical" was leaked on to YouTube by Kurt, Mercedes, Arty, Tina, and Brittany. Sue nearly blew her top from [SHOCKER!] EMBARRASSMENT! yes, you heard it here -- SUE was embarrassed.

There was also a new character thrown into the faculty position!!!!! I can't remember her character name, but it looks like she's about to give Sue a run for her money as the ultimate BA feminist of the school. Anyway, the character is played by actress Molly Shannon, who if you know ANYTHING about her..she's hilarious. Here's her IMDB Biography if any of you are interested.

Rachel, determined to move up on the list, decided to do her project on the song Run Joey Run, originally performed by David Geddes. She made a music video and tricked the three guys who she's had a thing with into acting/singing with her. She manipulated the video into making it seem like all three guys were chasing after her, and boyfriend Jesse was quiiite the angry fellow :/ We'll see how this one pans out in the upcoming episodes.


Okay well I feel like I have given an incredibly thorough explanation of basically everything that happened in this episode. Tying all of this back to the mother ship, aka good ol RHS, the real world is not run by physical "hot or not lists," but instead by the "hot or not" lists we come up with ourselves. How many times have you walked down the senior hallway and seen, say, 10 people you may or may not know well and automatically labeled them? *This is the time when every person reading this blog must raise their hands.* Yeah, I know you all do. Because I do too. It's not even on purpose...it's just that in high school, word travels and forces people to make assumptions based on fabricated stories. No one except the actual person can claim whether or not these stories are true, and yet we still spread them around for entertainment. Am I proud to say that I do this? Heck no...but I am human and I can 100% guarantee I will make mistakes and bad judgments in my life. So you may not like the way I roll, but I'm going to keep on rolling with it :]

That's all for now.
Thanks for tuning in :]
And don't forget the new episode tomorrow!!!! Rachel loses her voice :O
