Even though it sucks and parents (grand parents) shoul love their child unconditionnally, I'm "glad" they showed that Santana's abuela wasn't supportive because unfortunately, this is the reality of a lot of queer people especially minorities. It's important to show that they are not alone.

I want the episode with Santana and her abuela, not whatever the crap the rest of that shit was.

Yeah, I don't know.. I feel like in general, with the Brittany and Santana storyline, they put a lot of emphasis on Santana and her story with her realization of self and everything, but I wish, in general, we saw more of Brittany. Britanny never got nearly as much screen time and lines as Santana, and I don't know if it was because of the nature of her character. Still, I think we could have had some really sweet consoling moments between her and Santana in this and the last episodes. I would've loved to see more of brittany's side of things. Even just making that duet between Santana and rachel to Santana and Brittany would've been great, but I think they could've gone even further beyond that. Like just think of the beautiful klaine moments we get! i wish Brittana had more moments like that. As for cooter, what a jerk! Its been a common thread that beiste doesn't feel a lot of self worth and confidence as a woman so it makes sense she is still chasing after cooter. on another note I do like the moments between puck and quinn this episode and puck sympathizing with her and her struggles and why shes been lashing out. puck and shelby are disgusting and all the scenes with them make me violently uncomfortable. I love finn and santana in this episode and the kindness finn has for her.

So I didn’t dislike this episode as much as I remember. Finn’s intentions are sweet, some of his dialogue was good, the emotions are really giving, and it was very important at the time. And that scene between Santana and her Abuala was heartbreaking. But it still made me uncomfortable at times. While Finn did not mean to play a part in Santanas outing, he still needs to own up to the consequences of his actions. But the writers instead chose to treat him like the hero who did Santana a favor. And the support from the gay characters was pushed to the side with Kurt, who has stated that he hates outing, not saying anything to Finn. It simply hasn’t aged well and won’t work today. With I kissed a girl, it only would have worked 3 ways, a Santana solo, a Brittana duet, or group number where they actually all sing. Rachel singing made no sense for the storyline or the characters. She even got the duel lead when you listen to the full mp3. A couple of fun facts I forgot about previously: Santanas Abualas kitchen is the same set as Constance’s kitchen in American horror story s1. When Kurt and Rachel are at Kurt locker, notice that she is wearing a pink dress and he’s wearing a gold neck accessory and a white shirt. Next time we see them during Perfect, they are in different outfits implying a new day. However, during Pucks song, they are wearing the pink dress and gold accessory again. No one really notices it because it doesn’t mess up the storyline but the crew clearly messed up when putting the episode together. Also, that moment between puck and Quinn is my favorite between them. Not dating but bonding and taking comfort with each other over their shared daughter.

Usually I don't post things, but I wanted to share my thoughts: I believe Brittany didn't get much air time or focus on the relationship because it wasn't about the relationship, it's more focused on Santana, as an individual accepting her sexuality. Secondly, I also feel the glee clubs didn't focus on Brittany because Brittany is usually an open book. She is comfortable with her sexuality so she didn't encounter the same backlash Santana did. Finally, I believe Rachel got to sing the part with Santana for two reasons - somewhat closes the temporary enemies arc and opens the friendship arc they further build by singing "So Emotional" with Santana in a future episode and reason #2 is Rachel is the leader of the New Directions, so by Rachel singing it with Santana is symbolic in saying everyone in the New Directions has your back. I don't know if any of this is true or if the writers thought of all of this for the storyline, but I feel like it make sense in my head. Lol let me know if you agree or not.

the choice was to come back just for that weeks lesson or be suspended. he wasn't trying to blackmail her just wanted her there for what he had planned in her honor for glee that week.

Ashleigh Stanley

okay but if this was filmed this year they so would have done pink pony club instead of i kissed a girl lol

Laurie Kraus

Respectfully; it was blackmail. If she's suspended she can't compete at sectionals - something she's worked really hard for. It's one of those - well, you have a choice that's not really a choice. It's not the difference between steak or chicken. Also, when he puts Lady Music Week on the board, she says "so I don't even get a choice? Not cool." As for "in her honor". Again, I respectfully disagree. He didn't do it for her. He did it to make himself feel/look better. He messed up but he doesn't apologize and he suffers no consequences. He ends up looking like a "good guy" - it's one of the few times I disagree with Naya. If it was really about honoring her, maybe don't have Puck (her sort-of ex) sing Melissa Etheridge's "I'm the Only One" (granted, that was a poor artistic choice by the powers that be in order to further the Puck/Shelby nonsense) to Santana in front of Brittany. That's really tone deaf. (Honestly, this whole episode is pretty tone deaf). He claims he was worried about her because "you were my first, that means something to me" ... um, that's a bit of a recon since his feelings after it happened were "I didn't feel anything because it didn't mean anything". If he was so worried, a private conversation would have been a better option. And, maybe, have a girl or two actually sing (something other than I Kissed A Girl - which, while fun, is also a little insulting "you're my experimental game" is a little problematic) during Lady Music Week.

Laurie Kraus

Agreed. The whole ep is so problematic. And, I think Audrey said it on the last ep's vid: everything gets filtered through our own experiences. They cut the only other scene worth watching. I hate that Santana is treated (almost) like a victim and Finn is the hero that saves her. She WAS victimized ... but the guy that did it is framed as her hero.

Laurie Kraus

*blank look* "Everybody in this room knows about you and Brittany" "you're in love with Brittany and you're afraid she might not love you back ... that makes you a coward" Make up your mind, Finn.

Laurie Kraus

At around the 12:17/12:18 mark: Brittany's face says all you need to know about how she feels. She *hates* Finn right now. My personal theory as to why Brittany had (almost) no lines was because she was so angry. Brittany doesn't really do anger so she doesn't know what to do with or how to handle what she's feeling so she stays silent. And, while Brittany has always been comfortable with her sexuality and was never really in the closet - Santana's outing DOES affect her as well, even if just peripherally. She loves Santana and this is hurting Santana. It would have been nice if an episode about Santana included at least a brief conversation between her and her girlfriend. *sighs* After they sing I Kissed A Girl (which, out of context, is one of my guilty pleasures) Santana's line is so out of character: "Okay, okay. Update, y'all! I told my parents last night and they were okay with it" Y'ALL???? Really? But, then, we get this line FROM BRITTANY "No way!" You mean to tell me ... Santana comes out to her parents (I can understand her not wanting Brittany there) and she doesn't even shoot HER GIRLFRIEND a text. Pretty sure that warranted AT LEAST a text. More likely, a phone call. *smdh* I could probably write a novel about how very problematic this episode is. Of course, as has been pointed out, it's filtered through my life's experiences. Let me put it into (some) perspective. I was about 7 years old when homosexuality was removed from the DSM as a mental disorder. Of course, that didn't mean that gay was okay. Or talked about. Or represented anywhere. I was graduating high school when scientists discovered that HIV was the virus responsible for AIDS. I was 19 when my mother insinuated that I would not be allowed around a friend's children if I didn't "tone down" my activism on behalf of gay people (this was prompted by me not finding a really offensive joke funny and leaving the room). I was completely unaware of my sexual orientation until I was almost 20. It never occurred to me that the feelings I had toward one of my teachers in high school wasn't just "big sister". There were no gay kids in my high school. Never occurred to me because most of the people I knew, in my college theatre department - were gay men. There were no lesbians. There were no women who identified as bisexual. Marriage between same sex partners wasn't legalized nationwide until 2015. The year Glee went off the air. It was in June of 2015. Remember that when you get to Season 6. I know that this is a silly tv show and I shouldn't take it so seriously. And, I don't, really. It's just hard not to see Santana and remember the kids I knew who got thrown out like garbage when their parents found out. The friends of friends who turned to prostitution to survive. The friends of friends who didn't survive. I said this in another post (possibly more than one): Santana was wrong to insult and be a bitch to Finn. Her insults bruised his ego. His (I'll be generous here) careless outburst could have had devastating consequences for Santana. It's only because it's a silly tv show that it didn't. That this episode wasn't taken seriously (Josh Coleman could have just as easily been a bigger douche and waited in the parking lot to jump her) is because it is just a silly tv show. I sometimes wonder if On My Way was actually their way of noting how "easy" Santana got off. How much worse it could have been. I'm gonna jump off this soapbox now and probably go quiet. I've been watching and rewatching stuff to fuel my creativity again - pretty sure I can open my document file ;)

Laurie Kraus

I have to post this because it bothers me EVERY TIME. Puck saying "Wait, are we talking lady on lady or girl on girl cuz there's a big difference" It makes my skin crawl.

Laurie Kraus

Apparently, I'm not quite finished. "After all the horrible crap I've been through in my life, now I get to add that." Why, I mean really, why doesn't anyone question why Santana is so closed off and defensive, why she tears people down (it's more than just tearing herself down ... someone TAUGHT her to tear herself down, someone taught her she wasn't good enough, instilled in her those insecurities, paid for and signed off on a 16 year old getting a boob job). Seems like all they see is a bitch and don't care about the why. Which, I sort of get; they're all teenagers dealing with their own crap. This, however, isn't the first indication we've gotten that Santana may have not exactly had a sunshine and puppies upbringing. Glee seriously effed this up.

Annie Willow

This pisses me off so much. She says that she grew up on insults and that it wasn’t until kindergarten that she learned her name wasn’t “Garbage Face”. Sounds like the opposite of a warm and nurturing environment to grow up and thrive in. Yes, she was angry and bitchy towards people because she was scared of what would happen when they found out about her sexuality, but that was only fueled by the most important people in her life tearing her down before she even learned to talk. She had to learn to protect herself at such a young age and she actually doesn’t seek out trouble very often, as most of her insults and fights are reactions to others and threats to her precious image that she so carefully curated to protect her soft and vulnerable true self. Even once she is out and proud, she still doesn’t seek out fights and still only reacts when others say negative things to her, which is completely normal.

Laurie Kraus

OMG! I thought I was the only one who saw Santana as a reactive/defensive bitch. Santana exhibits a number of traits that abuse survivors exhibit. (overly observant, defensive, guarded).
