Glee - Vitamin D, S01E06

To watch Glee is to stroll a path which is at once recognizable and completely bizarre. Possibly similar to being on LSD...or at least the lyrics of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds might equally describe the view. And the laughter brought out from the show is rooted in hysteria and confusion.

I laughed and I loved the performances, but I keep having to remember not to pay attention to details. Reality and its logic is anathema to Glee. It has absolutely no place in this delightful show. Whenever I forget that, criticism and complaints pile up, but they are unfounded. They have nothing to do with what Glee has promised and continues to deliver every week.

The premise of Vitamin D? Terri (Jessalyn Gilsig), as unqualified as she is, becomes school nurse due to the machinations of Sue (Jane Lynch). Gotta love Sue. She writes in a diary! And claims in her record keeping that she is 30...I hope they bring back her journal writing in future episodes. That is one of the few disappointing things about Glee - just because they hit on a great idea (like Sue's Corner two weeks ago) does not mean it will ever come back. Sigh.

So Terri begins to help the students by giving them pick-me-up drugs. We had some overcharged, energetic performances in a Glee boys vs girls competition. It was pretty fabulous, and quite impressive when Lea Michele, as Rachel, managed to speak even faster than usual while introducing the girls' number. It was certainly delightful that Kurt (Chris Colfer) ratted the boys' drug use out to the girls so they could even out the playing field. We all know where he's loyalties lie.

Meanwhile, Terri convinces Ken (Patrick Gallagher) to propose to Emma (Jayma Mays) so that she will stop mooning over Will (Matthew Morrison). While she finally agreed, making conditions for the most unbelievable marital arrangement ever, Will realized how bad his relationship with Terri is getting. Too bad she's pregnant....theoretically.

Finally, Finn (Cory Monteith) continues to think about Rachel. He thinks he might like both Quinn (Dianna Agron) and Rachel, but Terri assures him it is impossible to have feelings for more than one person.

In the end, Terri is fired for drugging the school, and Sue is assigned as co-coach of Glee club. Now she can destroy it from within.

What are you looking forward to seeing in Glee?
