Rumours - Gleecap!

Follow TroutyMouthBlog on Twitter

WARNING: If you haven't seen Rumours yet, I wouldn't read anymore of this post :)


Ok, so, as we thought, the Rumours episode last night was epic. I don't even know where to start, but I'll sure try and break it down for you as best I can... So, without further adu:

1) Two words: Fondue for Two. (Shouldn't that be three words? I'm shaking my head like you're dumb for even suggesting it...) Anyways, the episode starts off with Brittany's new web-series Fondue for Two! In this, they want to get all the "hot dish", so she invites Tina Cohen Chang and Mercedes Jones to discuss it. In doing so, she sort of "outs" Santana... accidentally of course.


2) Sue brings the "Muckraker" back to McKinley. Why? Not for news.. for rumors. She's stirring the pot, getting all kinds of crazy rumors started. In the first edition, it says that Sam and Quinn were seen together, and that Santana has been spending "time in her closet". So, naturally, Finn gets really ticked off at Quinn and Sam, thinking that they are having an affair. Then, Santana gets really upset at Brittany for outing her on her "Stupid Melted Cheese Show", even though Brittany means she just stopped playing for the Cheerios and started playing for New Directrions... oh Brittany.

3) Artie finds out that Brittany has been cheating on him with Santana and gets really upset and calls her stupid. Really Artie? That was dumb. Good way to keep "the hottest girl in school"... Anyways, Brittany starts crying, and Santana is there to comfort the Sad Little Panda with an amazing cover of Songbird. You may have heard it when we posted it earlier. Well, I died a little, but that's beside the point. Brittany tells Santana to come on Fondue for Two so that she can ask her to Prom. She agrees. But doesn't come. Instead Brittany interviews Lord Tubbington.




4) Major Rachel-Finn-Quinn drama. Quinn tells Finn he can't do any solos with Rachel if she wanted to be with her. Rachel wants Finn to sing solos with her because she still loves him. Finn thinks Quinn is cheating and doesn't even know what to do.

5) April Rhodes comes back and wants Will to help her write a Broadway show. Rumors swirl that Will would quit the Glee club to do it. Emma even encourages it since Will has been so good helping her cope with her OCD. Heck... I encourage it. Be gone Mr. Schue. Or else stop being douchey.



6) During a stakeout, Finn and Rachel see Kurt leaving a motel room with Sam. They also see Quinn leaving a motel room with Sam. The only conclusion they could come up with is that he was hooking up with them. So they thought Sam was a slut, was a slut, was a slut!

7) Turns out Sam's dad lost his job, so their family lost their house. So now they live in a motel room, which is why Quinn was seen with him. Which is also why Kurt was seen with him. Then the whole Glee club felt bad for accusing him of being gay and hooking up with Quinn. So at the end they all rally behind him and sing Don't Stop with him to his sister and brother. It was a heartfelt moment. 




8) Other notables: Terri went trolling, Sue dressed up like David Bowie and Ann Coulter, Lord Tubbington can eat cheese because he is on Atkins, and McTina Cohen Chang-Chang and Pizes was created.

And that's what you missed on Glee!

Brittana - Rumours

Follow TroutyMouthBlog on Twitter

Spoilers if you haven't watched "Rumours" but I mean come on..how could you not watch it knowing that it was a Fleetwood Mac tribute?

Alright, so here we are, another week into the drama that is Brittana. If you need a recap on their whole deal, feel free to click here and read it from the beginning.

This episode starts out with a web talk show that Brittany has started called "Fondue for Two". Her, Mercedes and Tina are discussing rumors that are going around the school and eventually Brittany reveals that she has head that Santana plays for the other team and can confirm that that is 100% true. Oops..accidental outing? Well, not quite. When Santana yells at Brittany for saying that she plays for the other team, Brittany says that she does, she used to be on the Cheerios team and now she's only on the New Directions (team). Santana is a little frustrated with the wording that Brittany chose but seems to let go of that pretty quickly. Someone who is finally picking up on the Brittana action: Artie. Artie confronts Brittany about how there is something going on between the two of them. Brittany says that that can't happen because they are both girls and that's not cheating because it's friends talking with their tongues super close and Santana reassures her that that is not cheating. Artie says that Santana is just manipulating her and that if there is anyone else out there that is giving her something that he should be but can't, then that is too much for him to take. He goes on to say that Santana is aware of this and is using it to break them up. Brittany defends Santana by saying she's not this bad person that everyone thinks she is and then Artie says probably the worst thing he couldn't ever said and asks Brittany why she is so stupid? Brittany runs off crying because he was the only person at the school that had never called her that. Offensive. GTFO Artie.

During Artie's song, we see a little bit of Santana comforting Brittany in the hallway after she's telling her that Artie called her stupid.

Next up in their story: Songbird. This song leaked last week and we here at Trouty Mouth have been listening to it nonstop because Naya Rivera's voice is friggin' outstanding and we want her to get every solo. Anyways, she sings "Songbird" to Brittany alone in a room. Well, alone plus Brad. This solo is very intimate and heartfelt. I'm pretty sure I might've stopped breathing during this performance because it was so emotional. 





















After it's finished, Brittany asks Santana why she couldn't sing it in front of everyone since her and Artie are broken up. She says that she's not ready for that yet and that people are already starting to treat her differently ever since her "playing for the other team" rumor was circulating (i.e. she was asked to join the golf team). Brittany asks if Santana will tell everyone about it if she goes first. She tells Santana to come onto "Fondue for Two" and Brittany will tell everyone her feelings for Santana, ask her to Prom and all Santana has to do is say yes. Santana says that she will do it. 

Well, the next episode of "Fondue for Two" airs and Brittany says that her guest was supposed to be Santana, however, she got a text from Santana that just said, "I can't." Brittany recovers nicely though, continuing the show with her cat, Lord Tubbington. PS - Lord Tubbington, please quit smoking, it's not good for you.

In the final Brittana scene of the evening, it's back to heartbreak for all of us. Jacob Ben Israel is questioning Santana about rumors of her and Karofsky doing it in a parked car in the cemetery. Santana says she has no comments about that rumor. Jacob then asks for comments about how after he looked up the IP address that that rumor was posted from how come it turned out to be hers and she says that her computer was stolen. Obviously this whole episode is happening near the lockers (where all Brittana heartbreak goes on) and Brittany can hear all of it. Santana tells Jacob that her and Karofsky are going strong in their king and queen campaign and to vote Santofsky. Jacob asks her if they are in love and soulmates, and when he does, Santana just looks at Brittany and says, "Yea..I'd say that was accurate."

That is the end of the Brittana drama from this episode. Next week is the Prom episode and then there are only two more episodes after that (depression!) so I'm sure some crazy things will be happening and I can't wait!
