The Glee Project season 2 episode 5, titled "Adaptability," begins with the remaining contestants facing a new challenge. This week, they will be tasked with showing off their adaptability skills by performing a unique version of a popular song. The contestants' adaptability will also be put to the test in a variety of scenarios designed to push them out of their comfort zones.
In the first challenge, the contestants must perform a rendition of Katy Perry's hit song "Teenage Dream." However, there's a catch: they must sing the song in a completely different style than the original. Some of the contestants choose to perform the song as a ballad, while others opt for a rock or country twist. The judges, including Glee's own Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, and Darren Criss, are impressed by the contestants' creativity and ability to adapt to new situations.
Next, the contestants must perform a group number set in the 1920s. The theme of the performance is prohibition, and the contestants' outfits, hair, and makeup reflect the time period. The contestants must also perform choreography that is reminiscent of the 1920s era. The judges pay close attention to the contestants' adaptability in both their style and performance.
As the episode continues, the contestants are put through a number of other tests to assess their adaptability. They must learn a dance routine in just one hour, audition for a commercial with no preparation, and perform an impromptu scene with one of the judges.
At the end of the episode, the judges deliberate over who exhibited the most adaptability throughout the challenges. Ultimately, one contestant is chosen to receive a callback for the next week, while another is sent home. The remaining contestants are one step closer to their dream of landing a guest spot on Glee.
Overall, The Glee Project season 2 episode 5 is a thrilling and entertaining episode that showcases the contestants' adaptability skills. The challenges are diverse and engaging, and the judges' feedback is both constructive and insightful. Fans of the show will undoubtedly be on the edge of their seats as they watch the contestants fight for their chance to star on Glee.
