I was surprised at first that Glee would do a story on alcohol, but in hindsight it is pretty tame compared to some of the storylines they have tackled! And let's be honest, all high school kids want to try alcohol, even the Gleeks!
Some OK performances in this episode which is also directed by Eric Stoltz, his second this season. I must be getting old. I only knew one song this time "Don't You Want Me" which Rachel and Blaine sing together at a drunken party she has when her parents are away. Blaine is confused if he is gay or not and thinks about a romance with Rachel. Poor Kurt. Will he ever get his man?
Not sure if the message that drinking is bad got through as they ended up drinking before a performance about not drinking and consequently there was vomiting. This would have been punishment, except the principal thought they were acting and used special effects to highlight their message, so they got away with it.
Not a great episode.
