He observed that the only self-identified Christian is the shiny blond Quinn, cheerleading president of the celibacy club, who is pregnant by one classmate but pretending the father is another. (To make matters more complicated, in a heartbreaking scene, she begs her parents' forgiveness; in righteous fury, they throw her out of the house.)

...everyone is coping, and where performances are an escape. Yet with all the underlying sadness and frustration, the show achieves hilarity. The slapstick montage of the students getting used to their wheelchairs comes to mind, and this angsty episode saves room for some quiet, simple moments of joy, like Quinn and Puck’s adorable food fight...
