mzminola:Tina “Why are you lying to me? After everybody left I went back for my bookbag and something stopped me.”Artie “That was supposed to be private.”Tina “I don’t understand you. You’re always talking about wanting to get with me, but you won’t be honest with me about your hopes and dreams?”Artie “I’m in a wheelchair but I’m still a guy. What’s the difference? I’m never actually gonna become a dancer. My legs are never gonna work again. It was stupid.”Tina slides over. “I was thinking. Mr. Schue was so busy dealing with Bryan Ryan that he didn’t give us an assignment for the week. So…why don’t we do one on our own? A dance number?”Artie “You wanna dance with me?”Tina nods and bumps his arm. “You were pretty hot in Proud Mary. Why don’t we try and kick it up a few notches?”Artie smiles.~Okay, so, what did Artie mean by “I’m still a guy”? Was it in reference to the dancing? Was it in reference to not sharing his innermost thoughts with Tina? Our problematic gender-role-shit that says guys Don’t Talk About Stuff Like That?Also, Tina. Damn, girl. Kind of manipulative here; get called out on violating privacy, make it about him “not being honest” with you instead.[slightly more subtle than Mr. Kurt “I’M GOING TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT NOW” Hummel, though]So I think this episode is really tight and useful and well done, but wow, I’d forgotten how angry Tina makes me in it. :/ -- source link
