Upcoming episode: Glee – “Tested” (Spoilers)

Drowning their sorrows in chocolate…

Things aren’t slowing down in this week’s episode of Glee. Blaine struggles to find his footing at NYADA (and sugar just might be his downfall), Mercedes grapples with a decision about taking her relationship with Sam to another level, and Artie finds that being the big man on campus isn’t all it’s cracked up to be!

AN ALL-NEW “GLEE” TUESDAY, APRIL 8, ON FOX!

Blaine discovers that his newfound love of “cronuts” has the residual side-effect of weight gain – namely, the dreaded “Freshman Fifteen.” Combined with witnessing a more physically fit and self-confident Kurt’s star rapidly rising at NYADA while his simultaneously wanes, the increasingly pudgy former dreamboat begins to suffer a crisis in confidence… leading to some uncharacteristic behavior. As “Film School Artie” enjoys a success with the ladies that “High School Artie” never could have hoped for, he is quick to avail himself of all opportunities presented him. However, he soon discovers that his Casanova ways come at a price, one which may preclude him from making the one special connection he truly desires. As roommates Sam and Mercedes explore being a couple, she confesses that she is still a virgin and is not sure when (or if) she will be ready for them to make love for the first time. While the smitten Sam agrees to wait as long as she wants, he nevertheless tries to do everything he can to prove his worthiness and expedite the process… while she seeks outside advice from several sources, in “Tested,” an all-new episode of GLEE airing Tuesday, April 8 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
