Sam and Quinn get a little close and steamy and when Sam needs to put his mind in a different place he pictures coach Beiste in lingerie cutting meat and, when Quinn tells him to say her name he pictures Beiste in a cheerleading outfit and says Beiste’s name instead of Quinn. Uh oh that is never good in any situation. Quinn tell Sue about the incident with Sam and convinces her to make the story public so they can bring Beiste down.
Puck shows Artie that cash is kind and pulls out his guitar and starts singing “One love” with Artie and walks around the grounds showing people that they should pay up. A little demanding don’t you think? Puck offers to help Artie with his Brittany situation and take the money they just got and take the girls out for dinner and put his skills to work.

While the girls are discussing last years competition Puck and Artie walk in and offer Brittany and Santana a deal for dinner, If they show up at breadsticks and they don’t find hot dates that night they might show up. Of course them being…well…dumb they fell for it. Later Puck and Artie are at dinner with the girls and Puck is sharing a lovely story about his “waffles” while Artie is playing hard to get with Brittany. When the check comes to the table Puck wants to bail without paying the check but Artie can’t bail so he stays behind to pay and Puck gets upset that he paid and leaves Artie behind and takes the girls back to his house.
The girls perform Start me up/ Livin on a prayer with full out leather outfits and rocker hair and makeup. Was it just me or did this look make them look their actual age? Hmm Sue tells will about Coach Beiste quitting but shooting off confetti cannons and gives thanks to his glee kids for finally kicking her out. When Kurt gets pushed into the lockers by Dave he builds up the courage to go after him and stand up for himself. He shouts to Dave “What is his problem” and Dave keeps threatening to hit him Kurt tells him to go ahead and hit him Dave kisses him instead. When Dave pulls away and goes in for another one Kurt pulls back, Dave then runs out mad at what he just did. So many questions got answered when this happened it’s like oh that’s why he was beings so mean especially to Kurt. Talk about shocker of the season!
Mr. Schuester tells the boys about Coach quitting and they are shocked and he tells them to find a way to bring her back and they should be ashamed of themselves. He is then called into the office with Puck when his probation officer finds out he isn’t doing proper community service she threatens to put him back in Juvenile jail if he doesn’t find another community service and raise his geometry grade. Blaine comes to McKinley high to help confront Dave about what he did and he comepletely denies everything and starts to threaten Blaine for bringing it to attention. Kurt gets really upset and tells blaine he was never kissed before yesterday. How horrible for Dave to take something so precious away from Kurt he’s such a bully! Arrrg!
Will goes to Shannon to talk her into staying, Shannon tells Will that she is just a who wants to be treated like one sometimes. She confesses she’s never been kissed and Will consoles her by saying she is beautiful and gives Shannon her first kiss.

Artie convinces Puck to stay after he catches Puck getting ready to run and confessing that Juvenile jail was horrible. Artie offers to tutor him in geometry while he picks up garbage on side streets and Puck apologizes for everything he did and accepts Arties offer. Kurt continues to be bullied.
The boys perform Stop in the name of love/ free your mind as an apology to coach and compliments her on how pretty she looks.
I thought the episode was fabulous because it shows the troubles of bullying it is not fun at all! Nor is it funny to watch! I think the show had a good idea in the message of bullying but didn’t fully go into it too much. Oh one more thing did anyone feel like in the girls performance Rachel and Brittany weren’t Rachel and Brittany? I felt like I was watching Lea Michelle and Heather Morris perform. Which is not a good thing…but I still loved it. :)
