This week, we hit Glee’s big reset button as the show abandons Lima for New York — and immediately forgets how the big city works. In 5x14, "New New York," Rachel Berry gets chauffeured through Manhattan like she’s allergic to the subway, Kurt and Blaine enters their domestic sitcom era (complete with cursed pajamas and a SodaStream), and Artie learns that accessibility in NYC is a myth.

This episode we break down:

🛋️ Blaine’s fatal mistake: bringing home a couch from the street (never pick up fabric furniture)
💅 Rachel’s ongoing campaign to be truly insufferable
🎸 Elliot “Starchild” Gilbert, gone too soon sweet prince
🚇 Artie vs. the subway, round two (and somehow he wins with pepper spray??)

We also talk the Klaine divorce era, Darren and Adam Lambert’s glitter-rock detour, and why every Glee character should be sentenced to “straight to jail” for crimes against New York.

So join us for bedbugs, bad geography, and Blaine’s unholy Gelmet—because if Glee can survive this New York transition, so can we (do we survive? so they? we find out).
