5×16 Extended Summary

fuckyeatvshows:

Blaine discovers his newfound love of “cronuts” has the residual side-effect of weight gain – namely, the dreaded “Freshman Fifteen.” Combined with witnessing a more physically fit and self-confident Kurt’s star rapidly rising at NYADA while his simultaneously wanes, the increasingly pudgy former dreamboat begins to suffer a crisis in confidence… leading to some uncharacteristic behavior. As “Film School Artie” enjoys a success with the ladies that “High School Artie” never could have hoped for, he is quick to avail himself of all opportunities presented him. However, he soon discovers that his Casanova’s ways come at a price, one which may preclude him from making the one special connection he truly desires. As roommates Sam and Mercedes explore being a couple, she confesses that she is still a virgin and is not sure when (or if) she will be ready for them to make love for the first time. While the smitten Sam agrees to wait as long as she wants, he nevertheless tries to do everything he can to prove his worthiness and expedite the process… while she seeks outside advice from several sources.

5×16 Extended Summary

aaronmarquis-deactivated2017110:

It was always Finn’s story. Back in 4×01 when we had no idea what was going on, when Finn disappeared from the show for three full episodes and didn’t return to Lima until even after that, New New Directions was already Finn’s story. When we were complaining that the newbies were slightly-altered or remixed clones of Old New Directions, that was the setup for Finn’s story. Finn was supposed to see himself and his friends in those kids, and help them make better friendships and better choices than his group had, and he was supposed to find himself in the process. […] But with Finn gone, it was nothing deeper than what we saw: It was a show (New York) and another show (Lima) existing side by side and barely interacting with each other. […] And it’s sad. God, it’s sad. Even if you never liked New New Directions, it’s sad to see McKinley go. […] When those kids leave McKinley, it’ll be like the last of him leaving too. [x]

I am slightly in love with this list, but I think the highlight is:
  • Premature ejaculation
  • Accidentally hitting a mailman with your car
  • Only being able to prevent premature ejaculation by remembering the time you hit a mailman with your car

But to completely counter that, I love these kind of nostalgia lists. Websites/media can totally make more of these and less subjective rankings plz. 

  • Putting on a production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show with a cast of children to win back your ex-girlfriend
  • Getting married to yourself and inviting your former Nazi-hunting mother
  • Being saved by a female wrestler after you get locked in a Porta-Potty
  • Boosting your confidence with a magic comb

I’m laughing out loud over descriptions of things I’ve actually watched.
