Naya improvised Santana coming over to help Quinn stand up during Take My Breath Away and director Eric Stoltz decided to keep it in. In the first take of the performance, Naya cried real tears. Also, the Naya background moments in this episode are priceless. In the choir room she smacks her butt in response to Kevin, tickles Amber under her nose and Amber smacks her. And in the scene where Blaine shows his real hair, her facial expressions in the background are hilarious 😂 Darren Criss hated Blaine’s hair gel as the process would take over an hour every time and could be quite painful. However, he never mentioned how much he hated it to anyone as he still felt like the "new kid" and was scared he would get in trouble or annoy people if he complained. It is possible that Becky's strong poker playing skills in this episode are inspired by Lauren Potter's life. As a board member of Best Buddies, a non-profit organisation, Lauren has attended many charity events including poker tournaments and has been jokingly referred to as a "card shark". Rachel says after she has been named Prom Queen "Is someone gonna throw pig's blood on me next like in Carrie?", referencing the Stephen King novel-turned-movie. Ironically, this later happens to Tina when she is named Prom Queen in 5x02, although with red slushies rather than pig's blood. At Figgins' office when Brittany says that she "stopped talking for a while" may be a reference to the fact that she had little to no lines from 3x08 to 3x13. The scene where Rachel sits in the auditorium is a re-enactment of a scene from Funny Girl. She's even wearing the same outfit Barbra did in the movie's beginning. Kurt calling Blaine Borat was improvised by Chris Colfer. Goofs: Blaine and Kurt act as if nobody had ever seen Blaine without hairgel before the prom. However, he has been seen without it on several occasions before, like during Rachel's drunk party in 2x14 and I Can't Go For That/You Make My Dreams in 3x06 (though it is possible that they had been exaggerating, had simply forgottenc or it could have been a wig, like Puck's hair). Brittany didn't let Blaine enter with hairgel, yet many other students in the crowd had gel in their hair, breaking Brittany's rule. In addition, Brittany allowed Blaine in after not recognising him without hairgel. However, in 2x14, she already saw him without hairgel.

The crew made the Dino prom decorations out of tin foil and paper mache, and inspiration was pulled from the Flintstones and Land of the lost. The Dino rode used for the prom pictures was rented from some business in LA. Ryan was driving home from work. passed in, and stopped and made a deal with the owner to use it for the episode. Amber liked her prom dress as Mercedes so much that it was the only dress she tried on. Kurt line “Come on Boret.” was improved by Chris so the smile on Blaine’s face was actually Darren. A fluke: Kurt apparently sees Blaine’s real for the first time but he went without hair gel in their mashup against the Troubletones earlier this season, and we saw his curls in blame it on the alcohol last season. Also the idea that Kurt and Blaine have been intimately dating for months now and Kurt hasn’t seen Blaine’s real hair is not that believable, but it’s glee. 🤷🏼‍♀️

At the Anti-Prom Party, the table that Rachel is standing in front of has nothing on it but the Room Service menus. But, after Becky calls Kurt gay, Puck says "I second that" and a black purse is seen on the table. In the choir room when Finn and Rachel are about to kiss, you can see Tina and Mike sitting, but when the camera turns to Will they hadn't reached their seats yet.*The start of the episode before Will enters the scene is like bloopers; Joe and Rory spinning in chairs, Santana hitting her butt then touching Mercedes's face, Sam standing on a chair in the background. When Becky is narrating about Queens, she looks at Finn and Quinn's poster. When the camera zooms out, their poster is completely different. In Prom-asaurus, Becky was hoping to become queen of the senior prom and seemed to believe that she could run for it. This must have meant that she was a senior in Season Three. However, Becky does not graduate until the episode New Directions in Season Five, which means she can't have been a senior at that point. A possible explanation could be she had to repeat her senior year. A cameraman being visible during the scene between Finn and Blaine. Big Girls Don't Cry has different arrangements in the TV and Studio Versions, especially in the chorus where Kurt sings the first part and instead of Blaine having one solo in it and Rachel having the other, they both sang the parts together. However, most songs featured on the show are like this. When the episode aired in the UK, during the scene where Santana and Quinn are counting votes, part of Santana's line ..."being a crip and all" was cut. In the promo for this episode, Puck says, "Fan-friggin'-tastic." When the episode aired, he simply says, "Fantastic." In the episode, both Finn and Blaine are wearing parts of clothing which they wore again in The Break-Up. Blaine wore his black vest, and Finn wore his blue striped shirt. This is the second time Finn wore his blue striped shirt in a Prom Episode, the first time in Prom Queen. Quinn and Puck are the only seniors who don't have their photos taken.

"Big girl don't cry" is a song sang by Rachel, Blaine and Kurt. Funny enough, Darren Criss actually asked Lea Michele to sing this song at his wedding in 2019 (a few years after it aired in the show). He also asked her to sing "Paradise by the dashboard light" (covered at the end of season 3) as a duet at his wedding. You can find a short clip here : https://www.tiktok.com/@dailydoseofdarren/video/6867871705994513669 They've been really close since meeting on the show, and Darren also sang at her wedding, the same year. They also said they were the "last man standing" at eachothers wedding, went on to do a bunch of tours together, and even did a "carpool karaoke" together 2 years ago. You can find it on Apple TV (or maybe somewhere else idk) if you want to watch it https://tv.apple.com/ai/episode/lea-michele--darren-criss/umc.cmc.sx2an5ytlj4zd4pxqc827t24?showId=umc.cmc.2wyy7chw6bmy46fekqlqq1ulb They sing some glee + broadway + solo songs. I also think you should check out their tour videos together as they have some beautiful duets they've shared over the years :)

It was said by a few extras that during the parts were the camera was off the cast would often laugh and goof off and have fun it was roumord that Cory who plays Finn used to film the cast off camera with his own camera this ep also makes a reference to the musical carrie which also is reference in a future episode also this episode was one of my fave episodes as a child and when I whent to prom I had an exact replica of Rachel's prom dress as I loved it so much also she has a small tattoo on her shoulder that had to be covered it's of two music notes.

The music notes on her shoulder belong to quees bohemian rhapsody which they covered a few times in the show

You asked a few episode ago if Idina Menzel and Lea Michele were friends, and I don't think they are THAT close. I remember back in the day Idina said she was frustrated when they asked her to be Rachel's mom as she just had gotten a baby, and was closer to being Rachel's sister than mother. But a job is a job and she loved it. But Lea, in a podcast, recently said she, of course, was a fan of hers. And when Lea was in Spring Awakening and Idina was in Wicked, Lea would go to the same yoga place as her just to meet and talk to her (just like a crazy fan). She always looked up to her, and she was giving her some great advice. Lea recently asked her to leave a voice message for her son, as Elsa from Frozen, and she did of course (she even sang Let it go lol). Lea seems to be closer to Kristin Chenoweth, as in the same podcast she referred to her as a "rock" and someone she still, to this day, call to get advice. She also invited her to sing "For good" with her at a concert back in the day. Definitely worth a watch : https://www.youtube.com/watchv=1e2ykf3HaF0&list=RD1e2ykf3HaF0&start_radio=1 here is the podcast in case anyone's interested, it's actually quite refreshing to hear her talk about glee and give us some private details we never knew. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zGm6xqyu3c&t=3326s
