    • Quotes

      Artie Abrams: She slashed the tires on my wheelchair 17 times!

      Mercedes Jones: She swapped out my hair weave glue with mayonnaise

      Kurt Hummel: She made a fake elevator, which she trapped us in, then she pumped airborne drugs through the vents and she built a small robot to try and force us to kiss while it watched and made noises.

      Blaine Anderson: She put a live bear in my house!

      Rachel Berry: Sue Sylvester came all the way to New York City to see me in my opening night on broadway Honey Girl only to get up and leave in the middle of my performance to have sex all over my apartment!

      Joe Hart: She cut my dreads off!

      Geraldo Rivera: Why do you think she hates the Glee Club so much? Do you have an explanation?

      Artie Abrams: She's had it out for the Glee Club from the very beginning. Before we came along the Cheerios were the stars of this school and then we showed up and she's never forgiven us for stealing her thunder!

    Awful.
    I thought it was a joke. I watched the six seasons of Glee, I'm probably not their biggest fan. But yeah, this ep is just stupid and horrible. I mean, I did not even know if it was the characters or the actors talking about their characters during this ep. As the rest of this last season, this episode gave me the impression the show runners decided to f*ck the logic. Becky said that: "I don't even know why, but hurting kids with a burned-down school is my moral limit!". I am soooo sure it was the actress at this moment.

    Sue gave us the perfect summary of this episode: "You know what this is? This is a character assassination."
