In Which Episode of Glee does Finn Die?
The fifth season’s third episode of the American musical tv show Glee, “The Quarterback,” marks the series’ ninety-first overall episode. The episode depicts the passing of the character Finn Hudson and pays respect to both Finn and the late artist Cory Monteith, who began portraying Finn in the pilot episode of the show and passed away on July 13, 2013. Three weeks have passed after Finn’s burial when the fifth season’s third episode, “The Quarterback,” debuts.
There is no mention of a cause of death. Kurt says in a voiceover that what matters most is how Finn spent his life rather than the specifics of his passing. The main focus of the episode’s narrative is how Finn’s passing affects the characters.
Critics gave the episode high reviews, but some expressed displeasure that the program did not explain the exact cause of Finn’s passing. In Season five of Glee, Cory Monteith, who portrayed Finn, was scheduled to make a comeback. He had missed the final few scenes of Season 4 while receiving treatment for drug addiction from late March to late April of that year. The season would include a lot of Finn, per Monteith’s desire. Several planned season plot arcs had to be altered or changed as a result of his passing.
