'Glee': Your questions, my answers on love, liars & musical numbers to come
Your burning "Glee" questions and, as promised, my answers...
I saw that you watched
episodes 2 and 3 of "Glee" on a facebook post. You're soooooo lucky!!!!!!!
I am a huuuuuuuuuuuge fan, and if you would not mind, could you give me
detailed plots for both episodes? --Kevin
In ep 2 (titled "Showmance"), Mr. Schuester (Matthew Morrison) is told he
must recruit more Glee Club members if he wants the group to survive, so he
sets the kids up to perform the 1978 disco hit "Le Freak" at a school assembly.
Apparently, it was super popular back in Schuester's day. But Finn (Cory
Monteith) and Rachel (Lea Michele), fearing the entire student body will
laugh them out of the gym if they sing that "gay song," hatch another plan. In
the process, they end up getting closer... In ep 3 (titled "Preggers"), Kurt
(Chris Colfer) -- yes, Kurt -- tries out for the football team to impress his
dad. Also, Finn's bitchy girlfriend Quinn (Dianna Agron) delivers some troubling
news. But she's a big liar. As is Schuester's wife Terri (Jessalyn Gilsig).
Do Rachel and Finn ever get
together? --Jasneet
Well, Quinn is still Finn's girlfriend in episode 3... and yet I'm not quite sure
how to answer your question. Depends what you mean by "get together."
Is there any growth in Emma
and Will's friendship? --Elise
Indeed. Emma (Jayma Mays) and Will (aka Mr. Schuester) share more than a couple
intimate scenes in the next two episodes. But they're both good people. And Mr.
Schuester is married, so... yeah.
Will Mr. Schuester divorce his
wife Terri and hook up with Emma? --Megan
God, I hope so.
Do any Cheerios or football
players join Glee? --Jasneet
Mhmmm
Are there more layers and
depth to the other members of the glee club (Artie, Tina, Mercedes and Kurt?)
--Elise
Episode 3 revolves around a major Kurt storyline and it's pretty awesome.
Hilarious and heartwarming. And, I must say, I think Chris Colfer is going to
be a breakout star.
What's on the soundtrack for
each of the next two episodes? I know "Don't stop Believing" and
"Rehab" were absolutely incredible, and I haven't stopped listening. Thanks so much!!! --Aaron
On tap: Hilarious interpretations of "Gold Digger" (Kanye) and "Push It" (Salt N Pepa),
a heartbreaking rendition of "Take a Bow" (Rihanna), an unforgettable version
of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" (unforgettable because it plays a pivotal role in
the storyline), plus "I Say A Little Prayer" (Burt Bacharach), "All By Myself"
(Eric Carmen), "Tonight" from "West Side Story" and "The Money Song" from
"Cabaret."
I really thought "Glee" was
just a summer show and that I had missed it. Strangely glad that's not the
case. Any idea when they will air the episodes? --Michael

I hope they rerun the pilot episode for my less technical friends without DVR's and iTunes.
They will, before the new eps air. :)
Thank you so much for the scoop. The wait for new episodes is brutal. Your scoop is making it easier to take the wait.
"Finn's *****y girlfriend Quinn delivers some troubling news. But she's a big liar."
Cory Monteith suggested Quinn's celibacy may not last so I would guess fake pregnancy, but Terri is already using that one. Fake illness? Something fake parental tragedy?
Le Freak was big in MY day and I'm 52, so I guess that will take a bit of suspension of disbelief.
Oh, I think they explain Le Freak being big in Scheuster's day, by saying it was like a disco revival thing... Disco was the cool, retro thing to do.
Now I really know the term "gleegasam" means cuz' I just had one.
Episode three is soooo going to be a fave. I agree with you, Chris Colfer is def going to be a breakout star. For me, he makes the show.
UHH I'VE NEVER WANTED THE SUMMER TO END FASTER.
Thanks for this!
I CAN'T WAIT!
Thank you Korbi!
In the early 90s (like 90/91) Disco did make a comeback -> just like in the 80s when 60s sound made a comeback and every other movie had 1/2 the soundtrack filled with 60s music (eg. "Twist And Shout" in Ferris Bueller's Day Off).
While most of the 20 yrs earlier stuff in the 80s and 90s had more to do with clothes than it did music, music was still a part of the 'trip.'
