Mercedes JonesShe swapped out my weave glue with MAYONAISE.
MercedesHave you ever kissed anybody?
Yes. If by somebody you mean the tender crook of my elbow.
We need to have a gayvention, that's a GAY intervention.
It's K-K-Kurt. He's lady fabulous.
MercedesLook, just because he wears nice clothes doesn't mean he's on the down low.
He wore a corset to second period today.
MercedesWhy do we have to go all vanilla on this song? See, what we need is my chocolate thunder.
We don't have time to rearrange the song for you, Mercedes. But don't worry; we'll find something else for you to dip in chocolate.
Artie [to Tina who is in non-Goth clothes] It's so weird.
This so isn't you.
I feel like an Asian Branch Davidian.
Tina, are there any other looks you can try?
Biker chick?
Cowgirl?
MercedesHoodrat.
Computer programmer?
Cross-country skier.
Catholic schoolgirl?
Happy Meal, no onions. Or a chicken.
Wait, where's Rachel? I mean, I only noticed because, like, five minutes have gone by without her saying something totally obnoxious.
MercedesRachel got some intense news yesterday.
We were spying on Vocal Adrenaline when-
Guys! It's not right to spy...but what did you find out?
MercedesOkay, y'all ready? Ms. Corcoran, the Vocal Adrenaline coach... she's Rachel's mom.
Are you serious?
We're screwed. Rachel's going to jump ship for Vocal Adrenaline.
(Rachel walks in)
Guys, we have a serious problem. You know how I've been doing some deep background on Vocal Adrenaline?
Isn't that against the rules?
No, not at all. Or…probably. Whatever! Anyway, what I figured out: I rooted through the dumpsters behind the auditorium and I found eighteen empty boxes of Christmas lights!
Oh, no.
Which led me to the fabric store. I asked about red Chantilly lace; they were sold out.
MercedesOh, sweet Jesus.
Oh, my.
What?
They're doing Gaga.
MercedesThat's it; it's over.
Exactly!
We should have guessed it. They're going for full-out theatricality. They know it's the easiest way to beat us. Damn them!
What's up with this Gaga dude? He just, like, dresses weird, right? Like Bowie?
Lady Gaga is a woman! She's only the biggest pop act to come along in decades. She's boundary-pushing, the most theatrical performer of our generation, and she changes her look faster than Brit changes sexual partners.
It's true.
MercedesIs that a men's sweater?
Fashion has no gender
I don't want to do Britney.
Why no Britney, Brittany?
Because my name is also Britney Spears.
[Everyone looks at her.]
Wait, what?
MercedesWhat the hell is she talking about?
My middle name is Susan. My last name is Pierce, which makes me Brittany S. Pierce. Brittany Spierce.
I'd like to dedicate this song to my boyfriend, Finn. I was wrong, I shouldn't try to control you. I've just, I've never been this happy before. And I realize that I was trying to hold on to how you were making me feel so much that I was strangling you in my hands like a little bird. I get now that in order for this relationship to work, I have to open up my hands and let you fly free.
Finn can fly?
Really?
Wait, I thought I was the only one getting the solos from now on. Next week I'm going to be performing a musical number by Ke$ha.
Mercedes[to Brittany] Shh!
Kurt, I'm done talking about this!
Geesh! Loose a little, would you? STOP BEING SO FREAKIN' UPTIGHT ALL THE TIME!!!!
Kurt, I'll see you in the principal's office.
MercedesUh-oh.
MercedesI don't see what's wrong with getting a little church in here.
I agree. I've had a really hard year, and I've turned to God a lot for help. I, for one, wouldn't mind saying thanks.
Thanks for what? That it didn't come out a lizard-baby?
Whenever I pray, I fall asleep.
You got a problem with Jesus?
Oh, I got no problem with the guy. I'm a total Jew for Jesus. He's my number one Heb. What I don't like seeing is people using J-Money to cramp everyone else's style 'cause it seems to me that true spirituality or whatever you want to call it is about enjoying the life that you've been given. I mean, I see God every time I make out with a new chick.
Thank you Mercedes. Your voice is stunning but I don't believe in God... You've all professed your beliefs, I'm just stating mine. I think God is kind of like Santa Claus for adults. Otherwise, God is kind of a jerk, isn't he? I mean, he makes me gay and then he has his followers going around telling me it's something that I chose. As if someone would choose to be mocked every single day of their life. And right now I don't want a heavenly father, I want my real one back.
MercedesLook, Kurt, how do you know for sure? I mean, you can't prove that there's no God.
You can't prove that there isn't a magic tea pot floating around on the dark side of the moon, with a dwarf inside of it that reads romance novels and shoots lightning out of its boobs, but it seems pretty unlikely, doesn't it?
Is God an evil dwarf?
We shouldn't be talking like this. It's not right.
I'm sorry Quinn. But all you can believe whatever you want to, but I can't believe something I don't. I appreciate your thought, but I don't want?your prayers.
I hope you're happy, Kurt.
Having the week of my life, actually.
Guys, back off Kurt, okay? He had every right to speak his mind.
MercedesLook, Kurt, we're sympathetic to what you're going through but siding with Miss Sylvester isn't gonna do anyone any good.
It's doing me some good. Now I don't have to sit around listening to all you mental patients talk about how's there's a God when I know there isn't one.
Mercedes...You get to wear a fabulous hat.
You had me at fabulous hat.
