The Role You Were Born To Play

Glee is back! and I was so ready for it.  This week's episode had to do with auditions for McKinley's school musical "Grease", Will and Emma's relationship, Wade "Unique" and Sue clashing, and of course Finn and what he's going to be doing now.  Of course I couldn't leave out the fact that after Artie basically coerced Finn into helping him direct the musical (Artie said that if Finn didn't help direct the musical, he wouldn't direct it either), Mike and Mercedes showed up and agreed to help both Finn and Artie.  Directing the musical wasn't the only problem Finn ran into while getting auditions ready, he and Wade butted heads with Sue Sylvester.  All of this because Wade (who plays a transgendered teen on the show named "Unique" and who is transgender in real life), wanted to try out for the role of Rizzo, a female character in Grease.  Sue would not hear of it, however Finn said he would help Unique get the role and he ended up saying something very offensive to Sue. Wade did end up getting the role of Rizzo, however we did not get to see what Sue thought about it when she found out.  I don't know about the cast but I'm pretty scared about what she might do. 

Now that we're talking about the auditions, things got pretty heated between Marley, Jake, Kitty, and the Glee Project season 2 winner, Ryder Lynne.  Finn talked Ryder into trying out for the role of Danny for the musical, after watching him dance at football practice.  After believing that the role was secured Ryder decided to introduce himself to Marley, who was a shoe in for Sandy.  However, two people weren't too excited about it, Jake and Kitty.  Kitty's reason is mainly because she's a horrible person and Jake didn't like the fact that Ryder and Marley would be spending a lot of time together.  So in the end Kitty and Jake sang Neon Tree's "Everybody Talks", to try out for the roles of Danny and Sandy.  The characters were then asked to battle for the roles by having a sing and dance off with Mercedes and Mike  helping out in the number.  In the end Ryder was cast as Danny and Marley as Sandy, making Kitty throw a fit and of course lash out at Marley.  Jake didn't seem too happy about it either but he will still be playing a role in the musical, so he might be able to keep an eye on Ryder and make sure he doesn't try to get too close to his crush. 

However some of the biggest news came after Will and Emma discussed their relationship.  Will or Mr. Schue will be leaving to Washington D.C., he will be a part of a committee that helps get more funding for art programs in schools. He thought Emma, his fiance, would be joining however after talking to Coach Beiste about not wanting to leave her job behind it was decided that she would stay and they would visit each other on the weekends.  When they will get married?, Well that's yet to be announced so stay tuned and maybe they'll have a spring wedding.  I know a lot of you are thinking, but with Mr. Schue gone who will coach the Glee club.  Have no fear Gleeks, coaching the Glee Club does not require you to have a teaching degree, so the new coach for New Directions (for at least 3 months) will be.....*drum roll please*...FINN HUDSON! It looks like Finn won't be moping around his step dad's, Burt Hummel, tire shop after all. How do you think Finn will do as the new coach for the Glee club?  Let me know what you think and check out the promo for the "Glease" episode. Don't forget to watch Glee every Thursday at 9/8 c on FOX.
