‘Glee’: A sneak peak at two more episodes

Can time pass by any slower? There are still two more months until the Sept. 16 fall premiere of Ryan Murphy’s musical comedy ‘Glee.’

But take solace, ‘Glee’ fans. On Wednesday, Fox held a cloak-and-dagger screening of two more episodes for what the network and studio have termed ‘Friends of Glee’ (otherwise known as TV writers who can’t get enough), and I’ve got the details.

Without giving too much away -- nothing that the video clip above doesn’t -- here’s a hint of what viewers can expect:

-- A side-splitting tribute to Salt N Pepa at the duo’s most randy. Watch for Artie to bring down the auditorium. (To say anything more about the song choice would ruin it, trust me.)

-- Then there’s Mr. Schuester, Mercedes and Kanye West. They do the rapper proud.

-- Coach Sue will earn a regular soapbo...er, spot on the local news where she’ll sound off on topics she feels strongly about. Like caning.

-- McKinley High’s helpless football team will get a lesson in ‘loosening up’ from Kurt, Mr. Schuester ... and Beyonce. (Does it compare to what Justin Timberlake did for unitards on ‘SNL’? It does that -- and then some.)

-- Mrs. Schuester, meanwhile, is going to be keeping a pretty big secret from her husband.

-- Lonesome leading lady Rachel will see some guy-on-girl action, only to follow it up by belting out a kiss-off Rihanna tune that she turns heart-wrenching. Later, she’ll make a big decision that affects the entire show choir -- ahem, enter Kristen Chenoweth -- as a result of the return of Mr. Reyerson.

-- Finn. Performance. Car accident. ‘nuff said.

-- Head cheerleader-president of the celibacy club Quinn will perform a song of her own -- and she can really sing! Ditto Tina, the choir’s resident Asian goth stutterer.
