swatkatGeneral observations:
1. I did like Celeste and Alicia hanging out, drinking, but I want Alicia to be friends with Kalinda again.
2. Celeste's offer to Will to gamble takes a particularly vicious angle in hindsight. (I like her.)
3. Dear Will, you are in deep shit, and if you don't stop lying to Alicia you'll be in deeper shit. Because you'll end up doing the same thing Peter did - hurting her. A lot. PS: lashing out at Peter is juvenile and unwarranted.
4. I love that Alicia's journey this season involves learning deal with moral complexities and wonky moral compasses, including her own.
5. Diane is the BEST. I love that she's the fixer - she asked Alicia and Kalinda to make it better, she confronted Will and told him to make it go away, she showed Eli Gold who the real boss is.
6. I have NO idea what's going on between Cary/Kalinda/Dana. NO idea. Still don't ship Cary/Kalinda, would appreciate if people stop breaking Kalinda's heart.
7. Will and Kalinda, oh my heart. I had hearts in my eyes throughout their conversation in the previous episode. ♥__♥

Oh my poor bb Santana ;___; I hear there's a 'she deserved it' argument going around in fandom, which, what. Santana is a ridiculous OTT bitch who does indeed require some attitude adjustment, but OUTING =/= comeuppance. For ANYONE, regardless of their crimes. Finn, of course, being a clueless, straight, white boy secure in his privilege does not realise that. In fact, given that it came about in the heat of the moment - after being thoroughly poked by Santana at a very vulnerable point re. his body image, after witnessing Santana using dodgeball as an excuse to physically assault Rory (aka. the guy who tried to creepily take advantage of Brittany) - I wouldn't be surprised if Finn truly didn't care at that moment who heard him, or whether Santana suffered from its fallout. He wanted to hurt Santana, and he - as Brittany pointed out a couple of episodes ago - can be the biggest bully of them all when he wants to be. After the moment passed it would be easy to rationalize - who in McKinley would dare antagonize Santana Lopez? After all, she isn't Kurt, she's the one who protected Kurt, and anyway, no one cares. That's precisely the kind of thing Finn would think, but I'm disappointed that some parts of fandom seem to think the same way.
Also, I realise now why Santana always goes so viciously after Finn - he's everything she's not and so desperately wishes she were.

I'm also quite charmed by Pan Am, and willing to be so by Once Upon A Time.
