It’s speculated that tonight’s episode will have something to do with Kurt and Rachel’s auditions for the New York Academy of The Dramatic Arts. The question is, who chokes? And why?

Whoopie Goldberg guest stars in this episode as Carmen Tibideaux, a “theatrical grand dame” and professor at NYADA who travels to Lima to oversee Rachel and Kurt’s auditions. Whoopie has reportedly signed on for a 3 episode arc and will stick around Lima long enough to deliver a verdict.

Another storyline will introduce Puck’s estranged and troubled father. Played by Thomas Calabro: “A potentially recurring character will enter the show in this episode. His name is James Elliot and he is a man who dropped out of high school, became a young dad and then left his wife and kid. He’s also got a little bit of a sense of danger about him. Certainly an interesting character to be entering Glee.”

After Billie’s miscarriage, Nina worries her brother is being prematurely optimistic but the scan shows a healthy baby and Jimmy is ecstatic.
