if we don’t delivery your baby in 30 minutes or less, it’s free.

ok guys you may or may not know this already, but i heart glee. it’s more than a tiny bit ridiculous and overdramatic but MAN do i love me some glee.

josh and his brother chris were patient enough to sit through the season finale with me last night and there’s just a couple of things that uhhh… left me confused and a tiny bit freaked out.

at the end of the episode, it’s the big finale competition – all our little gleekazoids are singing their hearts out. they do great, and are super-pumped as they leave the stage. as they’re walking backstage, prego teen quinn’s estranged mom shows up. she tells her how she just wanted to hear her sing, and how good she did, and how she left quinn’s two-timing father, and please move back home. and then POW with almost no warning or contractions or anything (she did look a little pained leaving the stage, i’ll give her that) quinn’s water breaks.

so EVERYONE rushes quinn to the hospital as the glee competition continues, and the other group is performing “bohemian rhapsody”. here’s where it got weird (awesome?) for me – in the timeline of the show, they got quinn to the hospital, admitted her, parked the car, got her in her hospital gown and on the stirrups table, and she pushed out her kid all within queen’s 5 minute, 55 second 1970′s masterpiece. AND there was time enough for everyone (except quinn who may have been recovering but who knows) to get back to the competition after the song to find out they lost.

wah wah wahhhhhhhhhhhh (trumpet noise!)

ok so here’s my question – is bohemian rhapsody a universally accepted method of quick delivery? like in september, when i start having labor pains, can i pop in my night at the opera cd and blast that shit and POW A BABY! or do i have to go through 14 some-odd hours of labor like my sister did? the glee method, though it didn’t seem to involve any painkillers, seems much easier. someone get freddie mercury on the line and find out if i can cut the delivery time down to 3 minutes if the band is actually playing in the delivery room.
