Brittany's reaction to realizing it was Mr Schue has always been my favorite part that relief in her face 1) knowing she was saved and 2)knowing he wouldn't let anything happen to her
The part that breaks my heart is when she notices the footsteps stopped outside her stall. She goes backwards... like shes accepting shes gonna die. Then the relief when she hears "Brittany". I break down every time.
While Will is often either liked or hated, He is still a good teacher to where he tries to find his missing students when a possible shooter is lurking around. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
he was still stupid to not announce who he was though, surely he would have known that any students hiding in their would assume he is the shooter and be traumatised?
I feel like Tina was very underrated in this scene she only had like 20 seconds of screen time and you could understand the pain she feels with a lot of the people she loves in the school especially Artie this event and many more is why I like season 4 so much
Jaheem Houshakuji Same. Everyone talks about Brittany, Marley, and Sam, but Tina, all of her friends were in there and she couldn’t do anything. At least the Others were together and knew they were all safe. Tina had to probably go hours before hearing anything.
AebreaThing I cannot even imagine what these actors had to go through during the filming of this episode. I feel like after they stopped filming after each scene, they were still emotional and just quiet.
Maria Theresa Francesca Castillo Yeah, that was an amazing detail. Also, when everything is over, Mr. Schue walks up to it and stops it, like stopping the fear of the situation
I think the boy in the stalls is the same person we hear a couple of scenes earlier, desperately trying all the locked doors to the choir room and then running away down the corridor. He was looking for a place to hide and he ended up in the girls bathroom, where Brittany and the other girl were already hiding because they were both already in there when they heard the gunshots.
it fills me with injuries, she is the 3rd member of Quinn friendship group I couldn't bear to see her suffer the trechrilous bullet shot I'm excited snd pleased she was safe and rescued by William.
Ppl I think had the best acting: Sam: his panic was really realistic Britt: her facial expressions when schue entered the bathroom Tina: SUPER underrated, but her 15 seconds were amazing Blaine: the best damn on screen anxiety attack I’ve ever seen
I feel like they should have done more with Tina's scene. I wish she kept on arguing longer to go in and Figgins keeps telling her no while she's yelling and crying uncontrollably
Brittney absolutely broke my heart the most. Not to take away from anyone else’s fear or pain in this episode, but she’s so gullible and alone. When she heard Mr. Shu’s voice and went to hug him I just cried. ❤️😢
I have a major paranoia about being killed, and the fact that it could happen in a somewhat safe place: school, I just freak out. If I was in that situation I would cry my eyes out, or try to muffle my scream of terror. :(
I am afraid of almost every kind of danger situation and I completely understand you, I would freak out completely if I was there, maybe worst, and I hate being afraid of everything
Everybody dies but not everybody gets killed. She means that she fears being violently killed before it's her time. Everybody hopes to die from old age, in bed, surrounded by their loved ones.
MusicalFanatic04 look , I had this exact same paronia but life's to short to be wasting time thinking about it. I had it for like 7 years ... it sucked. There's not a time I couldn't remember not thinking about it !! I'm sry.
Yeah they followed this great episode up with them all acting silly in the next episode and then it’s like all the old glee kids just never find out and eventually it’s like it didn’t happen
right??? this woulda caused extreme ptsd and they probably would been scared for life but they literally never mentioned it again and it’s back to being silly and goofy the next episode
I really wanted Rachel,Santana,Kurt and Finn in this scene. I wonder how the whole scene would've been. And I also wonder of how were their reactions when they have known about what happend . To bad there wasn't a scene like that I would have loved to see everyone and I mean the originals hug and cry together. Especially Brittana.
If you thought Sam fought hard to get to Brittany, Santana would have gone ballistic and actually succeeded to get into the hall to go after her. Whether they were dating or not, we all know that Santana was absolutely head over heels for Brittany. I feel like if she had seen it on the news, she would have called everyone she knew trying to make sure the Glee Club, especially Brittany, was okay. She may act like a bitch, but she’s loyal to her friends through and through.
Somehow I imagine that if Santana were there she would have been in the bathroom with with Brittany. She’d probably have Brittany hide behind her or stay by the door ready to pounce on anyone who enters. Finn would have been protecting Rachel, and hugging her. Kurt would have been in the choir room right beside Blaine. If they were in NY then I imagine Tina calling them or they could see it on the news. Kurt and Santana would be rushing to get to Lima. The entire glee club would be in a panic and texting each other for news.
Heather Morris perfectly portrayed what could happen in the bathroom stall and her acting skills were tested here. The way she stopped breathing, stop moving and started silently crying before she found out it was Mr. Shue is what could happen in a bathroom stall during a school shooting. Not to mention the look on her face and the sigh of relief as she walked out of the stall and gave Mr. Shue a hug was incredible and pure talent😔👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I work at a gym and with the little kids in the kids club and I always worry that someone is gonna come in with a gun. But I was tested on what would happen if someone did
Just remember if it does to stay calm and think rationally as best as you can. When fight or flight kicks in, all that training can go out the window. You never know how you're going to react if it happens but, if you remember those kid's lives and yours is the top priority, don't try and be a hero by attacking the person unless it's the last resort.
This episode really shows how great of a teacher Mr. Schue is and how much he loves these kids. The fact that he risked his life to find Brittany and give Sam and the others some peace of mind that she was safe is incredible. He’s an amazing teacher for that.
Heather Morris, Jenna Ushkowitz, Chord Overstreet, Matthew Morrison, and Melissa Benoist could all get emmys off their brief moments in this scene alone
I really wish that they would have done this with all the original glee kids because I have such a bigger connection with them. I honestly really dislike the newbie characters but really like the school shooter storyline for an episode.
Amilia I would've loved to see Santana and Brittany in this situation? Like Santana is always seen as this tough girl but then whenever it's about Brittany she's different so I really would've LOVED to see that.
It would have been so powerful if this happened while the old cast was still there. Mercedes and her faith along with Quinn and Sam. Had Santana still been there but separated from Brittany it would have been intense. Brittany's innocence must have been shattered in that moment. While Sam loved her and had a bit of a naivety about him Brittany radiated an innocence that was a direct contrast to how Santana viewed the world. Which was part of the reason Santana always took on that role of being Brittany's protector. Reminds me of the time she let Rory have it and described Britt to him or the time she didn't want to leave Britt behind and join the Troubletones. She always wanted to be close enough to look out for her, so imagine how intense it would have been if she were so close and yet so far.
Brittany’s acting was on point here. The minute she heard someone walk into the bathroom, her face just froze in terror and when she heard that it was Mr. Shue, she let her breath go and eased up. Man this whole episode deserved like all the best awards.
what a very caring teacher. something i always love to remember is that even though a teacher may seem to hate you, if this was to ever happen at your school that teacher would do anything they possibly could to make sure your alright.
i’m actually sobbing bc there was a school shooting in my school once and everyone was apologizing for everything they’ve done and everyone was crying and i’m so grateful that we all made it out alive and that no lives were taken away
I wish Blaine would have recorded a message addressed to Kurt, I mean it would have made me cry more but I think it was something that should have happened. 🥺
0:56 seemed so similar to the one kid that recorded in his class while his school was on lock down.. The mass shooting in Florida 😭 Rip everyone that didn’t make it out
Omg, Blaine's face reminded me of when I had a school lock down because two men stole money from a bank near my school. I was crying so much, I had to be told to be quiet multiple times. Blaine's face was like my friend's, she was in a corner of the class room and was sobbing. Oh god, it took an hour until we were let out... let me stop
I was in a similar situation, there was a man with a gun outside my school, we went into full lock down, all the doors were locked the the lights were turned off everything, it was the scariest moment of my life
This happened to me a few months ago and I was in the exact situation Tina was in. It’s terrifying being on the outside not knowing what’s gonna happen to your friends...
Yeah, I feel like at least everyone was together in the choir room and had an idea of how they were doing but Tina and Britney had no idea. I definitely would be a Tina in this situation and beg to go back in no matter how dumb it is.
someone brought a gun to my school last year (no one was killed but a couple people were hurt) and i was in the bathroom snapchatting people to make sure they were safe and my friend was in the same bathroom as me so at least i had somebody i couldn't imagine brittany's situation, being alone like that
I love when will hugs brittney it reminds me of the time when he kissed beastie he always genuinly cared about people and i hate it when people say hes creepy yeah in real life he wouldnt be able to do and say the things he dose but you wouldnt be able to anything this show dose in school in real life so i say just enjoy the fun of what this show provides
Seeing Brittany alone crying broke me to pieces. I'd literally take the shots for her. She's the sweetest and purest and most innocent soul there ever lived 😭♥️
Knight artorias the abyss walker some guy in my highschool brought a fake gun to school it looked realistic. So they had to lock down the school because of it.
sarah mcleod same happened at my school a few weeks ago. I wasn't scared though, the classroom I was in was in a building that if you didn't have that class, you didn't know there was a classroom in that building. A lot of people think it's for maintenance. My school was locked down for 5 hours, and about half of the school was evacuated before they let us be picked up
This happened to me too. A guy apparently prank called our school saying he was going to do a school shooting. We had to sit under our desks for about 5 hours.
This episode was so good that it made my dad cry. I’ve never seen him cry. This is the only show I know that took something so serious and set it free to the world. ❤️❤️Glee❤️❤️
Like someone said in another comment, he was probably the one trying to get into the Glee room and then the girls bathroom was the nearest place. No hate.
He probably just happened to be close to the girls' bathroom when the shot was heard. In that situation you need to take cover quickly in the nearest possible place.
I really feel so sad and feels that Marley and her mom, Britanny and Tina are the best in this episode, because you can have a touch with differents scenes that can happen in a situation like that. Britanny been alone and scared just a kid needing help, Marley been scared and sad without knowing how her mom is doing and also Marley's mom in a danger scene without help and themnTina, she is saved, yes but she didn't know what happen with her friends and have that angst in her is so sad
the worst part about this is how they literally treated it as a single episode plot, like if this were real life it would have been talked about for ATLEAST 1 month(so atleast 2-4 episodes) and everyone probably woulda had some form of ptsd, but they literally had it happen, they talked about it for the first few seconds of the next episode, and it was literally NEVER brought up again
