* ComingOutStory

to:

* ComingOutStoryComingOutStory: Through seasons 2 and 3, Santana has to come to terms with her sexuality. First she realizes that her flings with Brittany are more than just that, then pushes her away when she doesn't break up with Artie to be with her and retreats further into the closet. Just as she starts getting her confidence back in the third season and is more comfortable with Brittany she gets [[spoiler: publicly outted by Finn, the fallout of which also causes her grandmother to disown her]].



* TransparentCloset: Apparently. Finn says "everyone already knows" and there's this little exchange:
-->'''Rachel:''' Look at the [newspaper rumours column].
--> '''Finn:''' 'Which prom queen candidate has been spending a lot of time in her closet lately?' That's wrong, Quinn's claustrophobic.
--> '''Rachel:''' (without missing a {{beat}}) No, that's Santana.

** However, around the same time Santana does become keenly aware of the rumours about her and recruits Karofsky to be her [[TheBeard beard]]. Then in season 3 [[spoiler: Finn publicly outs her]], and when confronted about it claims that everyone already knows - and while it may not have been a surprise to the student body, the confirmation was enough to [[spoiler: get her used as ammunition against Sue's congressional camapign and in turn outing her to the entire state]], thus showing the clear difference between this trope and actually living openly as a lesbian.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* AmbiguouslyBi: Debate raged on about Sam's sexual orientation, in-universe and out. In "Rumours," when he appears to be close to both Kurt and Quinn, the Glee kids are far more shocked by Kurt and Quinn's possible infidelity than the idea of Sam swinging both ways. It turns out to not be what they thought; Quinn and Kurt were just being good friends to Sam rather than having an affair with him. Taken UpToEleven in Season 4, as despite being in a relationship with Brittany, he also became best friends with Blaine and gleeks thought they had the better chemistry, to the point of [[PortmanteauCoupleName Blam]] becoming a FanPreferredCouple over [[NoYay Bram]]. The fact that it's very likely he was intended to be Kurt's love interest at his conception, but then it was changed when Ryan saw chemistry between him and Quinn, probably plays in to this as well.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: His AscendedExtra status from a Warbler to the male lead doesn't help, especially when you consider that he gets ''far'' more screentime than even the original characters.

Who has never been seen, or even ''mentioned'' before this episode. [[TheGhost Or after, for that matter.]]
