‘Glee': ‘Silly Love Songs’ Recap – Season 2, Episode 12

Love clouded the air at McKinley High in tonight's 'Silly Love Songs' Valentine's Day episode of 'Glee' -- and PopCrush has your recap right here.

Cupid was most certainly present in Season 2, Episode 12 -- but some of his arrows left more burns than love potions. Puck learns that "you can't choose love, love chooses you," as he finds himself falling for the new glee club member, Lauren. But, she makes it clear that he's got to 'woo' her to win her. Per usual, Finn finds himself fighting off the ladies, but who will he choose? Quinn is after his heart and she makes no attempt to hide it -- despite the fact that she's dating Sam. As for Kurt, Blaine is ready to lay things on the line and express his hidden feelings -- but who is he really crushing on?

In the spirit of the holiday, Will instructs New Directions to partner up and sing the world's greatest love song -- whatever love means to them, anyway. And as we've learned, when you give the 'Glee' kids an inch, they take a mile.

Much to Kurt's dismay, Blaine spills that he's after the heart of a Gap manager and presses the Warblers to perform a "Gap attack" in the store to secure his Valentine's date. Meanwhile, Finn volunteers to set up a kissing booth to "earn money for the glee club" -- which, as Mercedes points out, is just an excuse to make out with all of McKinley High. One please!

In order to capture the heart of his large lady, Puck leads the 'Glee' boys in a choir room performance of Queen's 'Fat Bottomed Girls' -- because compliments are the best way to show a girl how you feel. But Lauren isn't a fan of the off-handed flattery, and she shoots him down. Suddenly, Santana has her stink-eye set on Lauren. When Rachel shows up at Finn's kissing booth and expresses her loving feelings, he surprises her with a leftover Christmas present and terms of endearment -- but he's still not ready to take her back.

Mike and Artie, in all of their awesomeness, lay down a hip hallway rendition of 'P.Y.T.' -- the second Michael Jackson song to be performed on 'Glee' in just two episodes -- which sends Tina and Brittany into a flurry of lust. Things get hairy when Lauren takes Santana out in the hallway, which proves the ultimate turn-on for Puck, and Quinn sees fireworks after kissing Finn at his $1 booth (in front of Sam). This makes us wonder -- what game is Cupid playing here?

Despite being head over heels for the team captain, Kurt encourages his leading man to sing for the big-haired Gap dude, and Blaine and the Warblers make a very public scene of 'When I Get You Alone' (Robin Thicke). It's one of the most dynamite takes on a pop song we've seen on 'Glee,' but the mop-headed Gap employee isn't feeling it -- he gets fired and blows Blaine off, because, as he puts it: "You can't just bust a groove in the middle of somebody's workplace." Ouch! In the wake of his pain, Kurt lets his feelings be known -- and despite being new to romance, they decide to give things a go (finally)!

Tina chooses to perform the Babes in Arms classic, 'My Funny Valentine,' for Mike Chang -- and by perform we mean that she doubles over, wailing with emotion. As Will puts it, it's just too much. Elsewhere, Finn and Quinn rendezvous in the auditorium and heat things up center-stage, which puts them both in the nurse's office with the kissing disease.

The spark between Finn and Quinn inspires Rachel's solo performance of Katy Perry's 'Firework' -- complete with fireworks -- and the Warblers close out the show with the title song, Paul McCartney's 'Silly Love Songs.'

The 'Silly Love Songs' episode of 'Glee' was a heartache rollercoaster that made us reminiscent for the days when we brought enough candy for everyone in order to spare hurt feelings. Tune in to PopCrush next week -- and for the rest of the season -- as we recap the rest of 'Glee' Season 2.
