MODERATORS
Some surprisingly moving musical numbers! They could have easily taken the cheap and entertaining way out here with a bunch of over the top ensemble numbers (which would have been perfectly acceptable), but they opted for some genuine character growth-through-song instead. As I'm frequently saying this season: this episode had significantly more thought and consideration put into it than was necessary.
