ultimately very Christian - but her words seem to leave Mercedes feeling anxious.
When Sam gives Mercedes a Valentine’s gift, she reveals that that she’s told Shane about their
situation, and he was very sad to hear it. At first Sam thinks they can finally be together out in
the open, but Mercedes feels guilty about lying and cheating. Being Sam will only remind her of
how badly she behaved, she says. She also tells him that she doesn’t know who she is when it
comes to love, and until she finds out she can’t be with anyone.
As Sam walks off, dejected, Mercedes envisions herself singing ”I Will Always Love You,” the
Dolly Parton-penned song made famous by Whitney Houston. She continues the emotional performance
in front of the glee club, and the song hits Sam so powerfully that he has to leave the
music room.
While hosting the Hummel/Hudson clan, the Berrys sing around the piano to Cole Porter’s
”You’re the Top” before settling in to dinner. Finn asks Hiram and Leroy how they met, and they
reveal that it was while touring in Up With People and have been together ever since (Hiram also
pointedly notes that they were in their late twenties at the time). The Berrys toast to the happy
couple, but Rachel and Finn are taken aback when Hiram announces that the party will end and
move into the ”teenage lovemaking” portion.
Burt and Carol are in on the plan as well: all the parents have arranged for Finn and Rachel
to spend the night together as adults. Though freaked out, Finn and Rachel are also excited and
go through with the plan, but agree to ”no monkey business” in deference to the presence of
Rachel’s dads in the house.
Rachel sets about her elaborate bedtime rituals, but Finn’s need to use the bathroom in
the middle of her routine upsets her: she’d concocted a bizarre vision of the future where their
opposite schedules would allow them to maintain some mystery. The discussion devolves into an
argument that prompts Finn to storm off. Rachel’s dads overhear and clink Champagne glasses
triumphantly - their plan appears to be working.
Kurt shows up early at BreadStix per the instructions of the latest Valentine from his secret
admirer, but he discovers the Gorilla Gram delivery person waiting for him instead of Blaine. The
gorilla hands him another note that ends with, ”I think I love you,” and he pulls off the mask to
reveal Dave Karofsky underneath. Since they last saw each other in the gay bar Scandals, Dave’s
been trying to come to terms with how he really feels. He previously took his self-loathing out on
Kurt because Kurt was so out and proud, and now Dave thinks that he has genuine feelings for
him.
Kurt tells him that he’s flattered but doesn’t believe that Dave is really in love with him. He
wants him to be happy and believes he will be. But they can’t be a couple: Kurt’s with Blaine,
and he likes Dave only as a friend. Embarrassed and hurt, Dave begins to leave, but not before
he’s spotted by a student from his new school who reads between the lines of Dave and Kurt’s
meeting. Humiliated, Dave dashes out of the restaurant.
Having kissed and made up, Finn and Rachel snuggle in bed together and talk through the
difficulties they face, both agreeing that they can make their relationship work. They’re about to
go to bed but realize it’s only 7:15. So they decide to hit Sugar’s party at BreadStix.
Meanwhile, Hiram realizes that their plan may be falling apart, but Leroy wants to stick to
the reverse psychology plot - until they discover that Finn and Rachel still plan to get married in
May, right after nationals.
At her party, Sugar showers her guests with sponsored gifts, then she introduces the God
Squad. Joe admits that after thinking and praying about the right answer to Santana’s request,
he’s decided that love is love and he’s happy to join his group members in singing for Brittany a
mashup of The Association’s ”Cherish” and Madonna’s song of the same name.
Meanwhile, Sugar tells Rory that she’ll miss him when he gets deported; he tells her not
to worry about it and focus on tonight. She then introduces a surprise appearance by Blaine,
wearing a heart-shaped eye patch. Blaine sings the B-52s ”Love Shack” with Mercedes and the
God Squad, with Kurt eventually joining in as well.
