obligatory glee squee post ♥
All of this (including the gif) is going behind a cut for a week or so because I really really really don't want to spoil it for anyone who may not have watched it yet.

I'm going to do this in sections, by characters/pairings:
Kurt/Blaine
I just. I can't even wrap my head around how wonderful this episode is. They kissed. They freaking kissed. I've been waiting for this since the episode when they first met. Just. Blaine's whole speech to Kurt, the look in his eyes when Kurt was singing Blackbird, the way he so enthusiastically insisted that Kurt sing the duet with him. I thought my heart was going to melt. I thought my brain was going to explode. And even though I don't like birds, I was so sad when Pavoratti died. I thought the funeral was so sweet, and OMG did anyone else think that Kurt's mourning outfit was amazing?! I dug the little skull and the black feather pin.
Rachel + Quinn
I was really interested to see where this would go, in terms of them having a friendship, a true friendship. I'm disappointed in Quinn for several reasons: I thought that after Beth was born, she would mature a bit, but that doesn't seem to have happend; also, I didn't really buy her "I'M WITH FINN SO YOU'LL GET OUT OF HERE!" schtik. Maybe if we'd seen an actual FRIENDSHIP between the two (as was implied with Rachel's comment about them bonding over the summer about Beth and Shelby), I might have actually bought it.
Finn + Quinn + Rachel
I see him making eyes at Rachel, and all I can think is "jesus christ boy, make up your mind!" I don't like the way he keeps pulling the two of them around, and I hope that they come to some sort of conclusion soon, because it's starting to piss me off.
Rachel in general
Girl was amazing. Only Child is up there with My Headband. I loved her little speech during Glee Club, when she got the MVP award. So cute!
Brittany/Santana
I wish they'd touched on this a bit more. Just when I think that Santana has taken a step forward, she takes two steps back. I would have liked to see a bit more of Brittany's indecisiveness, though I do understand that realistically, there's only so much that they can fit into one show. I loved Santana's attempt at an original song though! I laughed so hard when she was singing, and now, of course, it's stuck in my head. I'm waiting to see some sort of confrontation between Sam and Santana, because I loathe the two of them together. It's just weird. Also, I've heard rumours about Santana getting a new love interest soon. Is it crazy that I'm hoping it's a girl.
What else? Regionals was great, I'm glad New Directions finally won, I can't wait to see what Sue does to them now, and the idea of Will/Holly makes me lol like you wouldn't believe.

Same here the fact that Quinn is a bitch is what her character is. But I hope they do redeem her somewhat and she will not be such a shallow and selfish person.
See this is what get's me everyone calls on Rachel for being head strong, selfish and all that stuff. And yes Rachel is selfish but when it comes to singing when it comes to how to treat someone she is kind and wonderful. I don't know why anyone doesn't call Quinn on her shit like they did Santana.

I think it's because Quinn is a lot more subtle than Santana. It's harder to catch her out being horrible, IMO.
