Before this episode I was guessing Will would be back with ND, and now he is. Taking it one step further, I predict Rachel will be back on Broadway or at NYADA, Kurt will return to NYADA at the end of the term and Blaine will move back to NY with him - maybe returning to NYADA, and Will will take over the ND.

About this episode -
Transitioning was a good title because of the four main storylines:
- Kurt and Blaine's transitioning relationship
- Rachel transitioning from her childhood home and memories into adulthood
- Coach Bieste transitioning from female to male
- Will transitioning from what he thought he wanted to what he truly wants

1. We didn't see a lot of Kurt and Blaine together but most of it was promising. Kurt manipulating the wheel was cute and guaranteed a song for us. The talk at Rachel's house began very casual but Blaine's sudden kiss - WOW! However, Blaine made that move, not Kurt, who I was hoping would be that bold. Blaine's breakup with Dave was very amicable and seeing Blaine excitedly running to tell Kurt was such a happy moment - then to have it crushed by Kurt was devastating. I felt so bad for Blaine.

2. Rachel's transition was relatable, we all go through changes in our lives, and ND just used it as an excuse to have a party. After all, Rachel and Sam ducked out in the middle of the party which was held in her honor.

3. Physically we know Shannon is now Sheldon but other than that the character was the same. That's not a bad thing, just an observation. It was touching to see Spencer and Sam so concerned.

4. I'm glad Will got away from those selfish, cruel VA kids. Since he wasn't able to help them recognize their horrible attitudes, it's good he left them in the lurch. I was reminded of the time Dustin Goolsby (former VA coach) said he hated his kids, I now see why. Yeah for Sue for sic'ing her hounds on VA!

We now know Dave is out of the picture but we have to wait until next week for Kurt to find out. I'm so looking forward to that episode and all the spoilers we'll get before then!

Your welcome Marty

Shelley I agree with all that

I am going to take a page out of Steffi's book and add some gifs into my review of the episode I went from cloud 9 to hell seeing my bb so sad at the end broke my heart But we did get lots.


First of all I love that Blaine was there to help Rachel with her transition from child to adult about her childhood home. I wonder about his Warblers though we haven't seen him coach them since the beginning of the series.

I also love that Kurt rigged the wheel so he got to sing with Blaine and we got their awesome duet This is one little thing he has done since vowing to win back Blaine!

However we got all the looks from Blaine who is the King of loving and flirty looks He loves so openly and unconditionally it breaks my heart when he hurts





And being all flirty with the feather boa in the song too! I love this man






The many beautiful looks of Blaine this episode





I love Klaine's talk at the end of their song and them talking about their past and then Blaine cuts him off with a kiss!!



This just shows me that again its Blaine who is being more proactive about pursuing what he wants which is Kurt so much so that after their kiss he goes and breaks up with Dave as he knows that his heart truly lies with Kurt.





This scene was handled well and like the adults they are becoming

Then we got Blaine literally running to tell Kurt the news only to get there and see Kurt with Walter and them going on a double date with Samchel! Couldn't anyone see the pain he was in it was so clear bb got heartbroken yet again









But next week looks promising It better be Kurts doing though Blaine has done so much chasing over the years!

Those are fantastic gifs you chose to illustrate your points!
My favorite is of the two of them kissing. Their body language says so much.

stylelocket: How we got our EGGing on! #glee

[soulmatejunkee]

Well, you know something went completely wrong when you're more touched by the Blainofsky break up than by the actual Klaine scenes! And once more it's clear: Spoilers are missleading!!

Where was my intense scene?
It can't be that "O remember our first duet, yeah, cute times, wanted to bang you back than - so hard" moment, because that was not intense at all. And it was also not a huge movement.

AS IF I NEED ANY PROVE THAT BLAINE LOVES KURT!
Kurt has to do something!
This is so frustrating. God, even I could write this couple more decent than the Glee writers do!

"First I get your forgiveness and then I'll get your heart back!" ... "I'm doing all this without even apologizing or anything else, I'm just here waiting for you to pining over me again, so that I can crush you again, because hey, I'm Kurt Hummel!! O, and do you wanna meet Walter? He's the guy I'm dating while I get your forgiveness and your heart back! Isn't he amazing? Just a little old, but whatever."

^This is what I thought after watching that episode.

My expectations were way too high. And as result I'm not the slightest excited for next week anymore. Well done, Glee.

Bringing Walter into that storyline is what ruined it IMO.

I'm also not getting into the Samchel stuff tbh.

I remember back in 5x06 when we got the first hint of them, I did like it. It came as a surprise and I liked their chemistry. It was unexpected but it was cute and yes, if they would've given them a build up during the NY-arc I would've been totally into it.

But they didn't, they brought Samcedes back and not just as a fling, but as a serious relationship, with deep talkings and meaningful conversations and they even lived together. And now... none of that means anything anymore and instead suddenly Samchel is the big deal?! Am I supposed to forget 5x14-5x20?

I mean, it's not that I don't like their scenes, it was cute, yes. But NOW I want them to be friends and Samcedes to be the couple. Because this is what happened in Season 5.

Rachel sabotaging the house selling was hilarious

I also think it's very impressive that she has so so many memories on her picture wall - even stuff she just dreamed about and not to mention all the stuff no one was around to take a picture. O, the logic.

The Newbies were cuties.
All of them, I really like all of them.

The Beiste stuff, well it was expectable that not everyone would accept her/him. I think it was well done, it wasn't bad. Sheldon looked amazing, knowing that it was a woman behind it, really well done make-up-department. I kinda like the Sue/Beiste relationship - already back in Season 3, unfortunately they never truly developed that into a friendship.

Spencer and Sam being so concerned was adorable and also the end with the big choir, it was nice. But all in all it was a B-Plot.

Vocal Adrenaline are .... how is it even possible that this group is still allowed on competitions? They're criminals. And there are witnesses. It should be easy to get them disqualified. But it's Glee and so I guess in the end we have to beat them in a competition.

So... I loved the music.

Somebody loves you was wonderful.
All about that bass was good too.

[ces't moi]

I really enjoyed the episode, maybe that's because I stayed away from spoilers. I only knew there would be Klaine. Didn't even know about the kiss so
I'm happy with what we got, of course it would be better to see more from Kurt but oh well, I'm not that emotionally invested in glee at this point so I will take what I can get


Their duet was awesome, it was so cute that Kurt manipulated the wheel.
The old guy being around is so so so creepy though

[kindness is free]

I think that's my problem I am still too emotionally invested

I just want Blaine to be happy

I love Mason he is my favourite newbie

[soulmatejunkee]

I just wanted Kurt to go after Blaine, to fight for him.
Just for once.
Clearly we won't get that so...

[kindness is free]

I was so hoping for that too since that we said to Blaine at the beginning

[soulmatejunkee]

Yes.
And it's not going to happen.
Well, I can't change that, of course.
But I don't have to like it.
And I don't.

[MarieSD]

Love the flirting
