* How the heck did Sebastien figure the obviously photoshopped picture of Finn would be good blackmail? Couldn't [[Idiot Ball|Rachel]] and [[Idiot Ball|Kurt]] potentially just have done the same thing to one of his pictures? [[Wall Banger ~~(Darth Wiki)~~|Shouldn't they have known and countered with that?!"]]

** Everyone in this show who isn't Will Schuester or Santana Lopez sucks at blackmail. Fact. My question is what's the point of the blackmail thing if it's just going to get called off ten minutes later? I mean, I get why Sebastian's doing it but I'm not sure why it's in the episode. Is it to provoke yet another Finchel fight?

** Probably [[Rule of Drama|that]] in addition to giving Sebastian another opportunity to [[For the Evulz|twirl his moustache]].

*** But both the fight and the mustache twirling were summarily dropped not even ten minutes into the episode, so once again, pointless.

** Speaking as a former teenager and product of the public high school system it usually doesn't matter how badly the photo is doctored so long as it's embarrassing enough. Hell, this even came up in an episode of [[Great Teacher Onizuka]], no one cared that the picture wasn't real because it was so completely over-the-top humiliating.

** Except that in this instance, Sebastian's telling them to their faces that he's going to post the picture. That gives them the opportunity to suggest that should the picture ever see the light of day, Sebastian may find his head perched atop some of the worst debauchery on the internet. That's called a stalemate. Their response certainly shouldn't have been [[Wall Banger ~~(Darth Wiki)~~|"Ok, What do you want?"]] as though the internet was some magical place to which only Sebastian had access. What makes this even ''worse'' is that the two characters in question: Kurt and Rachel, have both been specifically shown to be as vicious as Sebastian when it serves their purposes - so there's no argument to be made that they're not devious enough to have thought of the retort.

*** And we've recently got a new continuity, where Kurt and Rachel would never stoop to below their opponents level. We haven't dealt with Crack-house Rachel since she decided Finn was God.

*** It's entirely possible that Kurt and Rachel have actually ''matured'' since then.
