Another Inspirational "Glee"

"Glee", which airs on Wednesdays on Fox, never ceases to entertain me. This week brought lessons involving unrequited love, betrayal, and being who you are. Mr. Schuester is threatened by Sue Sylvester, cheerleading coach, that she will bring the glee club down if he doesn't give her his song lineup for sectionals. Mr. Schuester suspects, however, that Sue is leaking information to the other schools about the glee club. Mr. Schuester goes to talk the coach of one of the other school's glee club (Guest-star, Singer Eve). She explains that he has nothing to worry about and that her students do not even have anywhere to practice. Will invites them to practice at their school, in which they perform a version of Destiny Child's "Bootylicious". Will's glee kids are worried, but say that the other glee club use what is called "Hairography" to distract from the fact that they are not that good. "Hairography" involves swinging your hair around while dancing to distract the audience.

Meanwhile, pregnant Quinn decides that she wants to keep her baby and not give it to Will's wife, Terri, who is pretending to be pregnant. I really hope Will finds out about this soon. It is kind of surprising that she has been able to hide it for this long. Quinn tries to see if her baby's real father, Puck, will be good father by letting him help her babysit. Turns out sending dirty text messages to his girlfriend is more important to him. Divas, Rachel and Kurt, are also at odds once again when Kurt tricks Rachel into dressing promiscuously to impress Finn. Finn, however, likes plain girls and turns Rachel down. Rachel comes to the realization that she may not ever have a chance with Finn.

One of the other competing schools demands that Will let them perform at the school like the other school did. Turns out their other competition is a school for the deaf. Will's kids perform their number for them first. Will gave them a "Hairography" routine, due to his belief that they are not good enough, to a mashup of "Hair" and "Crazy in Love". The routine was a bust. The deaf school performed a hand-signing version of "Imagine". Will's glee club joins in with them by singing the song and the result was absolutely beautiful. The two schools were signing and singing together and it was a great moment. Later, the glee club goes a little simpler with their routine by performing a beautiful version of "True Colors" , while we get flashes of Quinn deciding to give up her baby to Terri once again and Sue meeting with the other schools to leak information.

It was another solid episode of "Glee" and from the looks of it, it is going to get better and better. Only two more episodes left til it goes on hiatus.
