ladyoflisquillIn no particular order...
Mr. Schue's reaction to the hotel receptionist saying "Most of the other teams are splitting them up by sexual orientation" sums up what annoys me about him. He talks the talk about inclusion and acceptance and yet is sooooo unable to put this into any real effect.
Rachel & Kurt's duet was beautiful! It actually made me a bit teary. Mostly when Kurt sang his first few words on the stage. He started out being the wizard to by giving Rachel this dream of hers of the Broadway stage. We all know Rachel wants to get out but Kurt has never really verbalized how much he wants to get out too. But the moment he started singing, god, you could really see how much he wanted it. I think he has difficult processing his most personal emotions into words sometimes, he shows them physically but its as if he's not allowed to want for himself, to express want... IDK. More on that later but I loved the friendship shown between them in this. Yay!
SAM & MERCEDES!!!! YAY! I love how casual this was. so cute.

Brittany's scene with Santana at the end was gorgeous. I love how she sees the simple truth in things. I WANT MIKE/TINA BABIES SO MUCH!
Sooo, you fix all Quinn's problem by getting her a haircut? Really! I was convinced she's found out her daughter was adopted in New York and was going to peek at her. So much for getting some proper exposition on that.
Cheyenne Jackson \o/ "My kids are at least attractive. Your kids look like they haven't been baked properly."
The songs were kinda ho hum for me. Didn't like the New York one, the love song was.. fine, not my thing. Light it Up (?) was goo and I did actually like the tune of "My Cup" just needs different words.
Mercedes' face when they didn't rank. D: made me want to cry. Oh bb.
Puck giving advice to Finn on dating was AWESOME! New York is the city of love. LOL.
"Hi Rachel. You look amazing and you sounded great, you just shouldn't have kissed him." Jealous much, Jesse? lol.
Okay now, the "I love you". Let me say if it's not clear already I love Kurt and I love Blaine and I love them together, I'd like to see more of them together but y'know, show, whatever. Blaine saying "I love you" to Kurt is not unexpected. That he said it so easily is both wonderful and surprising. I don't care who you are, telling the person you're dating that you love them for the first time is a big step but Blaine, he was just speaking the truth. He didn't need Kurt to say it back but he wanted to make sure Kurt knew. And I think that shows up a problem that might come up later in their relationship. Pretty much the whole relationship has been about what Kurt needs. I'm not saying Kurt is selfish but... well, Blaine just easily fits himself into Kurt's life and while he may not give into Kurt on everything he wants you can see the attraction for him to be part of Kurt's life in more than just being his boyfriend. We already know that Blaine's dad is not 100% accepting of his son being gay and we know that Blaine has been gay bashed before. Being with Kurt and around Burt gives Blaine a security of acceptance that he's never had before and I think he would do a lot to stay there. I don't doubt that he loves Kurt but I think he may need to stand up for himself a lot more or he will allow himself to be swallowed up in Kurt's life.
Kurt's reaction to Blaine was somewhat clipped and short and this is when the thing I mentioned earlier about how Kurt verbalizes his emotions comes in. I believe whole heartedly that he does love Blaine but he was surprised. He never expected Blaine to say it, I mean never! He dreamed about it, probably doodled various combinations of their names together, and fantasized about the future they would have, but he never really believed he would have it. Kurt is a dreamer and for so long that was all he had. A reality where he could be open, could have a boyfriend, was just not possible for sooo long. He is still carrying a lot of scars from that. Still doesn't believe that he's allowed to have this amazing boy and the love he has for him is overwhelming.
