Emmy award-winning, out-of-work actress Kristen Chenoweth can seemingly do no wrong. Even as Mr. Noodle's sister, Ms. Noodle on Sesame Street, Chenoweth makes the most of what she's given to work with. 
While her character here (April Rhodes) is merely a tool to get Rachel back into New Directions, it's quite a tool to have in the shed. Is it any wonder this episode had even more Glee Cast recordings than any other episode prior? Ryan Murphy and music supervisor P.J. Bloom made the most of their time with her in that regard. Singing selections from Cabaret, Heart and Carrie Underwood (in some classy sequin western wear), the big-voiced sprite carried the episode. As far as music choices, The Psychedelic Furs' "Heartbreak Beat" was a nice subtle choice, with the lyric "But a kiss ain't enough / And the world don't stop" coming for Finn and Rachel's kiss.
