Guess Who's Getting a "Makeover"? - Glee Recap

Blaine decides to up his status this senior year by becoming more active on school clubs and functions. He joins various school clubs to fill the void that he has in his life after Kurt left for New York. Blaine also signs up for Senior Class President against Brittany.


Kurt applies for internship at Vogue.com. He meets with the magazine's editor-in-chief, Isabelle Wright (guest star Sarah Jessica Parker) and finds out they're both from Ohio--Kurt from Lima and Isabelle from Columbus. Isabelle is impressed with Kurt's online resume and style that she hires him on the spot.

Later on, Mr. Schuester consults with Sue this year's set list for regionals. He feels like he's all dried up with good ideas for the glee club that he has come up with nothing for their set list this year. Sue explains to him that because he was too busy last year of chasing his dream of winning the Glee Club National Championship. He has nothing to look forward to, now that he has finally reached that goal. She tells Will to move on, probably to find a new job. While on a meeting with the committee, he found out that the budget for the Arts at schools are depleting. Will thinks that representing show choirs will be the way to go, so he could have something new to do.

Brittany asks Artie to become her Senior Class Vice-President and agrees to it. She announces to the club her intentions on running again for Senior Class President, with Artie as her running mate. Sam confronts Brittany at the school's hallway about why she chose Artie, instead of him as running mate. Brittany says that the reason why she didn't do it is because she doesn't wanna ruin her friendship with Sam. She then enlists him as Blaine's running mate so he could still run as VP, just like he wanted in the first place. Blaine says yes and Brittany immediately challenges Blaine and Sam to a debate.


Brittany feels bad for the coming debate due to the 90% of the senior class thinks she's stupid. So Artie thought he's going to make her over so people would change their mind. Blaine does the same thing to Sam so he could seem less-stupid. Come the debate, Artie babbles about a LOT of issues at school.  Sam was asked about his stripper past and if he's ashamed of it. He replies that he's not and does a Magic Mike number. President Senior Class Debate, Blaine offers to change things at McKinley if he gets elected. Brittany, on the other hand, gives a simple speech about her love for McKinley. She proposes to abolish summer vacation so that they can all be together at school all year long. She also proposes to remove weekends at McKinley so that they can also hang out even on Saturdays and Sundays.


Kurt and Rachel talks about her life in NYADA. She fills like she's still reliving her high school days when people at school still making fun of her fashion choices. Kurt makes her over so she could look better at school, and Kurt might make a good impression at work. Kurt and Rachel were seen at the cameras of the office breaking in the couture vault, therefore alarming Isabelle to come to Vogue.com offices. There, Isabelle caught the two inside the vault and Kurt explains that he's planning to do a make over on Rachel. Upon knowing their intentions, Isabelle joins them. They made a fashion video of it and Kurt is planning to put it on Vogue.com if Isabelle says yes.

Isabelle talks to Kurt about the video they made. She informs Kurt that Anna (Wintour) loved the idea and they are planning to re-shoot it with Carolina Kurkova, with all credits of the idea to Kurt. Isabelle tells Kurt that she hopes that Kurt's "unbridled, wide-eyed Lima, Ohio optimism" won't rub off by his life in New York. Isabelle advises him that he should use his very high fashion aptitude someday instead of going to NYADA. She tosses the leather idea for Vogue.com, tells her assistant that they'll start from scratch and lets Kurt join for the meeting later on.

Will talks to Emma about his plans on joining a blue ribbon panel to improve Arts education nationwide. He tells her that if he does this, he might leave McKinley for a few months. She advices him to follow his dreams, assuring him that nothing will change between them and no matter what, they'll still get married.


After Rachel's makeover, she goes to school with a new look. She looks so fascinating that Brody instantly was in awe of her new image. She asked Brody if they can sing "A Change Would Do You Good" together. The number was so intense that she got carried away and asked Brody to dinner.

The results are in and their Senior Student Council President is Blaine, with Sam as his VP. He calls Kurt to tell the good news, but Kurt ignores his call as he is celebrating with the staff of Vogue and Isabelle. Blaine was so bummed that he just realized that the reason why he moved to McKinley is Kurt, but now that he's gone, he feels so alone. Sam comforts Blaine and tells him that little did he know, he made change happen to McKinley by just moving there. He went on by saying that because of him, he now gets Bravo jokes, that Blaine is now the first gay president at McKinley and that he made him feel that it's great having a gay bro. Brittany congratulates Blaine as he leaves the table from a talk with Sam. She approaches Sam and he admits to voting for her at the elections. Brittany and Sam hugs and tells him how he'd always seem to have the right things to say.


Will comes to Sue to tell her that he's taking her advice and has mailed his application for the blue ribbon committee on Arts education. He asks for Sue's help on a letter of recommendation from a colleague and she gives him a written recommendation on the spot, saying that she's already way ahead of him on that department.

Rachel cooks dinner and sets the kitchen on fire. Brody comes in and instead of cooking dinner, Rachel instead just bought pizza for Brody since the duck she was supposed to cook got burnt. They talked about their secrets--how Brody used to be obsessed with Ace of Base and about the time Rachel corrected all the grammatical and spelling errors from a guy who sent her love letters when she was 8. The two kissed when they heard a knock on the door. IT. WAS. FINN!!!

Quotes:

Britanny: I think that by bridging the human-slash-robot divide we'll ensure that both students and vending machines will be voting for us.

Artie: What is your favorite color?
Britanny: Filipino. They're very hard workers and family's very important to them.

Sue: I'm one step ahead of ya, butt chin. I took the liberty of composing a letter to the Arts Governing Board, outlining your astonishing accomplishments.
Will: Not only is William a direct descendant of Harriet Tubman, he delivered my infant child with his bare hands...
