Before Sectionals begins, my favorite part happens. Kurt and Rachel have a little heart-to-heart moment. They talk about how Kurt didn’t get the solo and the differences between the Warblers and New Directions. Kurt asks about Finn and Rachel tells him about the whole Santana thing and she finds out that she was the only one who didn’t know about it.
Then Sectionals start. They first to go on is the Hipsters, which are a bunch of elderly people trying to get their GED. They sing “The Living Years” and they end up being pretty good. The older ladies have some soul!
Then the Warblers perform. They sing “Hey, Soul Sister” by Train. The arrangement of the song was really fun and Blaine had the solo, which was really the entire time. While watching them, you can tell that Kurt is new and sticks out a bit since the new club is so different from what he is used to. While they perform they shoot to Schuester, who has a really strange facial expression. It looks as though he might have seen a ghost or his parents having sex. I just really didn’t get it and kind of laughed it off.
After yet another dramatic scene with the glee clubbers in the green room, New Directions is getting ready to perform. Behind stage, Artie confronts Brittany about cheating. She is confused because she didn’t really cheat on him. She was only avoiding him because she had lost the “magic comb” and was scared at what he would do. He tells her that it wasn’t real and that it didn’t have magical powers.
Then the show starts. Sam and Quinn start it off and come through the back of the auditorium…since that’s what they always do at competitions. They sing “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” from the movie Dirty Dancing. The group does some really good dancing. Then Santana gets to sing a song by herself called “Valerie” which is where Brittany and Mike are featured. They end up getting a standing ovation.
When Schuester goes to show Emma the first place trophy, she shows him something else too. She shows him a ring, which he thinks is an engagement ring. But it is actually a wedding ring. Her and Carl went to Vegas over the weekend and got married.
Then Rachel and Finn make up…for about 3 minutes. She admits that she made out with Puck when they were fighting. Finn gets mad and can’t believe that she did it. He ends up breaking up with her as they make a scene in the hallway.
They end the episode with Mercedes and Tina singing Florence + The Machine’s “Dog Days are Over.” Which I thought was actually really good. I wasn't a fan of the original song, but listening to their arrangement made me want to listen to the original again. It turns out that I actually really do like the song. I'm happy that the show gave me a new appreciation of it.
