The Glee season 4 finale is right around the corner. Which means it’s time for us to reflect back and pick our top ten most unforgettable scenes of the year.
10). The Rachel and Kurt Reunion
“I lied. I’m not ok. I miss you and I miss everything.” Anyone who has ever moved away and tried to take on a new place by themselves will know this feel. If your heart didn’t clench a little when these two best friends ran into each others arms, you’re an unfeeling person who needs to show yourself to the door. Because this moment is very special for the Kurt and Rachel friendship and if you’ve been watching since the beginning you should understand how long this has been building. This isn’t just a reunion between two high school friends. This is the beginning of a new life for them both. Here they are, in New York City – the place they’ve been dreaming of since forever – ready to chase their dreams together. There’s really nothing more special or magical than that.
9). Leave Brittney Alone!
Brittany’s in a pretty dark place after Santana moves away to college and she gets kicked off the Cheerios for being a disgrace to the team. This frustration and depression leads her to a downward spiral that will never be forgotten. Her reenactment of the Britney Spears meltdown of 2007 was so perfectly Glee that it was hard to imagine them NOT doing this in some fashion. Plus, you can’t really feel bad watching Brittany pummel Jacob Ben Israel as she takes out her frustrations out on him with her flying green umbrella. The entire glee club has wanted to take him down at one time or another. He sort of had it coming all along.
8). Vapo-Rape
Maybe we should call this the best most awkward scene of the season. Whether you were drowning in secondhand embarrassment or screaming profanities as Tina meets her low point – we know you were freaking out in some capacity. Poor Tina has been nursing pretty strong feelings for her “best gay” but that in no way makes her nonconsensual touching appropriate. Luckily though, the scene just ends before it could go to a really bad place and Tina does admit to her serious moment of misbehavior later in the season. So for the most part we can look back on the moment with uncomfortable laughter and a burning glare of side-eye.
7). Quinn and Santana Get Busy
There are some of you out there who have been waiting for this moment since the very early days of Glee. So it’s not an overstatement to say that in certain circles, joy literally erupted from the mountain tops when Santana and Quinn made a love connection at Mr. Shuester’s fake wedding reception. Quinntana fans around the world rejoiced as they finally got to see queen-B1 and queen-B2 finally get their freak on. Though that’s not to say that the moment wasn’t pretty spectacular for the rest of us too.
6). Blaine’s Crush Confession
This moment is not only what BLAM dreams are made of, it’s kind of a big reason as to why we watch Glee in the first place. It’s not every day that we get to see a gay boy admit his romantic feelings toward a straight boy and for them to resolve the encounter by bro-7ing it up like nothing ever happened. Sam’s “I trust you” touched people’s hearts and that understanding and empathy is something the world needs a little more of. Thanks Glee, for filling in the void.
