This week’s episode of Glee
was a real dark one and different to the usual show filled with happy
musical numbers. Episode 18 focus on the drama for once and Ryan
Murphy had the students of Mckinely High face the reality of gun
violence in American schools.
The episode began with Mr Shue
announcing the competitors for regionals and Brittany claimed an
asteroid was coming towards the earth to kill them all. She says
“hide your kids, Hide your wife and hide your wife.”
Mr Shue took this opportunity to use
the idea for Glee Club to get in touch with their feelings and
sing their last song ever?
Ryder is in love more than ever with an
anonymous girl he has been chatting with online and believes he saw
walking down the hall while he was in class. Ryder puts together a
romantic piece and sweeps the girl (Marissa) off her feet only to
find out she was not the one he has been searching for.
Brittany is in a bit of a predicament
as she wants to show her affections towards Lord Tubbington (her cat)
and Sam suggests they do a song with the club for him. While Coach
Beast has a little confession she wants to share with Mr Shue and
Becky tells Brittany that she’s not ready to leave high school just
yet.
From then on the episode turns sour as
gun shots are let off in the school and the Glee Club is trapped in
the choir room. It is the most intense episode of Glee that will make
you tear up and fear for the safety of all the lovable students in
Mckinely. “Shooting Star” also has a brilliant twist and includes
classic songs like Extreme’s ‘More Than Words’ and Elton
John’s ‘Your Song’.
