"Glee" - "The First Time"

In “The First Time,” McKinley High is putting on a school play, “West Side Story.” Artie finds his calling, which is bossing people around,which is also know as directing, as he puts it. He pressures the two leads in the play, Rachel and Blaine, to go out and experience deeper relationships with their significant others because they won’t be able to convey real emotions to the audience if they have not experienced these emotions in real life. Blaine visits his old school and walks into a Warblers rendition of “Uptown Girl” by Billy Joel. This is where he meets Sebastian, a new student who clearly likes him. Kurt sees Blaine and Sebastian chatting and feels threatened, but accepts Sebastian’s invitation to Scandalous, a gay bar. Kurt sees Karrovsky here. He has transferred to a new school, but is doing fine. Mike Chang’s father overhears Mike and his mother talking about Mike following his heart and continuing to dance even though his father told him that he has to quit. They decided to keep Mike’s dancing a secret and not tell Mike’s father not knowing that he heard everything. Mike’s father comes to McKinley and tells Mike that he must quit or he won’t have a son, so Mike says “I guess I don’t have a father anymore” and that’s the last we see of them for this episode. McKinley High premieres its first performance of “West Side Story” and it’s a success. In one scene, the cast sings “America” from the play with horrible “Puerto Rican” accents, but the singing is great as always.
