- Quotes
Burt Hummel: Hey! What did you just call him?
Finn Hudson: Oh, no, I didn't call him anything. I was just talking to the blanket.
Burt Hummel: You use that word, you're talking about him.
Kurt Hummel: Relax, dad, I didn't take it that way.
Burt Hummel: Yeah, that's because you're 16 and you still assume the best in people. You live a few years, you start seeing the hate in people's hearts. Even the best people.
[to Finn]
Burt Hummel: You use the N word?
Finn Hudson: Of course not.
Burt Hummel: How about "retard"? You call that nice girl on the Cheerios with Kurt, you call her a retard?
Finn Hudson: Becky? No, she's my friend. She's got Down's Syndrome. I'd never call her that, that's cruel.
Burt Hummel: But you think it's okay to come in my house and say "faggy"?
Finn Hudson: But that's not what I meant.
Burt Hummel: I know what you meant! What, you think I didn't use that word when I was your age? You know, some kid gets clocked in practice we tell him to stop being such a fag, shake it off. We meant it exactly the way you meant it. That being gay is wrong. That's some kind of punishable offense. I really thought you were different, Finn. You know, I thought that being in Glee Club, and being raised by your mom, meant that you were some, you know, new generation of dude who saw things differently. Who just kinda, you know, came into the world knowing what it's taken me years of struggling to figure out. I guess I was wrong. I'm sorry Finn, but you can't, you can't stay here.
Kurt Hummel: Dad.
Burt Hummel: I love your mom and maybe this is gonna cost me her, but my family comes first. I can't have that kind of poison around.
[turns to Kurt]
Burt Hummel: This is our home, Kurt.
[turns back to Finn]
Burt Hummel: He is my son. Out in the world you do what you want; not under my roof.

Kurt's a kid and however he's behaved (which so far has been purer than many of the rest of the cast) didn't deserve the homosexual panic that Finn displayed and the father rightly jumped on him.
In my family, whatever you thought of homosexuals, you didn't call them names, even behind their backs, so I'm comfortable with the lesson here, and uncomfortable with the high horse this episode has put everyone on.
I'll be looking for all the posters' outrage on Santana's bedding Finn and trying to ruin the Glee club by taking away his virginity.
