Shooting Star's messages about Blaine
I can’t help but feel like the writers were trying to send us several messages about Blaine in this episode. While there wasn’t a particular focus on Blaine during the shooting, the camera cut to him an awful lot of times, recording the changes in his reaction which mirrored the change in his emotions. It was little moments that came together to form a big picture that not only addressed the common fanon theory that Blaine’s parents aren’t accepting, but also divulged subtly the impact Sadie Hawkins had on Blaine’s psyche while staying true to who Blaine is as a person.
