‘Glee’ season 5 spoilers: Lea Michele’s Rachel clearly worried in ‘Opening Night’

“Glee” has already done the funny (parts of “New New York”) and the emotional (“Bash”) since making the move over to New York City, so what is the crew planning to do next? That shall be the focus of “Opening Night,” the new episode airing on April 22. We’re not going to say that it will be the most important episode of the season (mostly because it won’t), it still should be a heck of an interesting hour to watch.

This is a story that has been in the making for longer than we can really say, and one thing that you really have to remember is that there’s going to be a ton of pressure on here to make her dreams into a reality. Too much pressure, in fact. It would not even remotely shock us if Rachel ends up at some point falling on her face. This entire process has to this point come very easy for her: She’s gone to New York, got into the right school, and is set to open her dream musical on her dream stage.

The good news about life is that the best things can sometimes happen at the most unusual times and in the most unusual ways, and that is what we’re hoping to see from Rachel in the end. We want to see her succeed, but it is infinitely more interesting to us if she finds a way to do it without having everything come to her exactly as planned.

What do you think about these photos? Is Rachel going to experience a crash landing on Broadway? Why are we asking so many questions?
