3.5 For the First Time, 3.6 Mashoff, & 3.7 I Kissed a Girl

Glee is a show about underdogs, the people that we cant resist rooting for. In addition to that it's about giving a voice to the voiceless and chase after your dreams no matter what may stand in your way. Most importantly it's about be your true self.

Episode 5 of the season, For the first time is about more than losing your virginity it's about growing up and taking the time to be adventurous when your young. In this spirit Kurt and Blaine visit a gay bar and Rachel attempts to lose her virginity. Of course of this ignited by their drives to be best Maria and Tony. Of course Rachel's big mouth rats her out to Finn and he in turn is hurt that she's using it as drive for her career.

Mike and farther come to head once he discovers that his mother has been lying for him. In the end they both end up disowning one another. Also featured in this episode are the Werboler's. I knew I would miss their charm and amazing blazers. It was nice to see them. In the end the show goes on without either of the stars losing their V cards but the show is still a success because they find another way to tap into the necessary emotions. The show also gave Arty the chance to take charge as director and make decisions without being held back by the limitations of his chair. It was great for Arty to have a grown up moment.

No big surprise though in the end after Sebastian has left and Finn doesn't receive a football scholarship, both Hummel/Hudson boys spend the night in memories of first loves.

Mashoff

It's the first annual Mashoff at McKinley High, from the brains of Mr. Schue and Shelby of course in an attempt to get their kids geared for Sectional but more importantly to remember in the end that they're all friends.
Of course in the spirit of this and the crazy amazing talent of the Troubletones Santana takes it to a whole new level of mean and ends up slapping Finn. She slaps Finn because something he said in the hallway to shut her up, had to do with her sexuality, ends up in a political campaign commercial. The main issue is that she hasn't had the chance to tell her family.

Shelby finds out the truth about Quinn, that she has been trying to get to be deemed an unfit mother. Also in a state of panic at the hospital Shelby calls Puck. This of course ends in a bad decision, because all bad decisions start with Puck. Shelby sleeps with Puck and he takes it to mean more than it should, and falls even harder for her. Also during the delivery of their speeches Rachel withdraws from the race and backs Kurt. In the end I felt that this episode produced the best performance yet: an Adele mash-up of Cold Shoulder/Someone Like You

I Kissed a Girl

This episode centers around Santana's rage and her need to accept who she is. Further her friends from both New Directions and Troubletones try to give her the courage she needs to tell her family. So they team up in the old choir room and spend the week singing "Lady Music" after Finn saves her from suspension. In the end she finally thanks him and tells her family; her parents accept it but her Grandma disowns her.

Oh and Rachel stuffs the ballot box, in an attempt to help Kurt win the election. This leads to Kurt being in trouble but Rachel steps up and takes her punishment.
