Obvious Glee spoilers.

This part was quite obvious, but still made me happy.

Idina Menzel's Shelby is Rachel's mother. Yeah. OBVIOUS, BUT AWESOME.

Anyway, we find out that at least one of the reasons Jesse was sent to infiltrate New Directions was because SHELBY IS RACHEL'S MOTHER.

Shelby made a deal with Rachel's dads to give up the baby in exchange for money that would help her get started with a showbiz career in New York. That obviously did not pan out, and throughout everything, she still longs to get close to the daughter she gave up. Unfortunately, under the terms of the deal, she cannot approach Rachel until she turns 18 (and we find out Rachel was born in 1994--which is all kinds of ridiculous), so she needs to make Rachel seek her out.

I knoooww. Otherwise it would be illegal for us to salivate over how awesome Puck's arms are. (I doubt it though.)

The funny thing is I'm so used to adults playing teens, I never even stopped to consider all of this before, lol.

(But going to bed now! Perhaps to dream of Puck. ;))
