Subject: My goodness, I'm in the minority. I've only seen Glee once and it was nothing like this episode. I though Glee was cheesy, but as I said, I found GA very sad. I thought the music choices were great, and my heart broke for Callie, Arizona, and Mark, and for all the doctors fighting to save Callie's life. I don't know what I was missing but I didn't have the desire to laugh. I just thought that anyone who has lost or nearly lost a loved one would relate. I know when I've been in sad situations, music is too painful, but it's what goes through my mind.
In reply to: Rena 's message, "Some of the scenes felt out of place. I must confess I laughed at some of them when it was meant to be emotional.It was different and good but nothing special. Many thought they are trying to be Glee now." on 12:49:34 04/02/11 Sat

[> [> [> It worked for me! I haven't been on the board talking about it because I have been watching the episode over and over! It's better on my computer without any commercials. Better the second third and fourth time around! Arizona made me cry! Meredith made me cry! Everyone else was just impressive! Except for Mark who I wanted to punch in the face! He has a vested interest in the baby, but has no say over what happens to Callie. He's not her partner! Arizona is! Get over yourself you douche bag! -- Theresa, 14:41:47 04/03/11 Sun [1]

[> [> [> [> I don't agree about Mark. Mark has been Callie's friend and lover before Arizona was on the scene. He loves Callie as a friend, and gave her the baby that Arizona adamantly refused her. He didn't abandon Callie to go off on his own. He was there to pick up the pieces when Arizona selfishly went to Africa. Don't get me wrong...I love Arizona. (inside) -- Cece, 17:00:19 04/03/11 Sun [1]

But Callie had a hard time forgiving her the pain she'd caused. Mark apologised to Arizona for the things he said in the depths of despair. Arizona has been jealous of, and mean to Mark because he means so much to Callie. Why forgive one and not the other?

This shows that people say mean things at times when they are in pain. Mark has, Arizona has. It doesn't make it right, and sincere apologies are always in order. But just as Arizona is not "nobody", neither is Mark. He is the baby's father, and fathers are equally important as mothers in a child's life. It is offensive to think of a human being as just a sperm or egg donor, particularly when they don't think of themselves that way. Calling him a douche bag is simply not fair. It would be like calling Arizona selfish cow. Nasty name calling makes no sense when both M an A love Callie, and she loves them in return.

[> [> [> [> [> I called him a douche bag for him blatantly telling Arizona that he's going to screw her girlfriend again. That was uncalled for. He can be in th baby's life, but he's NOT Callie's partner. He proposed to Callie, she said no, and chose Arizona instead. If they're making decisions about Callie and her life, those choices should fall to Arizona, not Mark. He's not her mate. She didn't choose him in that role. -- Theresa, 17:51:53 04/03/11 Sun [1]

He's chosen to not just be the sperm donor, that's fine. That doesn't mean that he doesn't have any boundaries when it comes to intruding on Callie's romantic relationship with Arizona. That relationship has nothing to do with him. It's not his "family", it's his Baby. It's Arizona's family unit as she'll raise the baby with Callie, and Callie chose her as a mate and not Mark. Arizona wasn't jealous of his importance to Callie, but rather his placing himself in the center of their relationship and Callie not setting the line with him. He's a father, not a husband. He's part of the babies life, not part of their relationship. Just as millions of fathers are co-raising their kids with mom's who are in a separate relationship.
