This week, the "American Idol" top four sang inspirational tunes which meant shout-outs to Jesus, tornados and Charlize Theron movies about lesbian serial killers.

STOP.
Haley shouted at America, "What about the earth?!!" and then shouted at the judges, "What about fairness?"
[Clip: Judges critique Haley, a loud "motor" noise plays over it.]
What's that noise?
[Clip: Randy says round one went to everyone but Haley, a giant BUS graphic enters frame and squashes her]
In round two, Lady Gaga showed up to invade their personal space and help them tap into their wild side.
[Gaga says to Haley: "Give them I'm a little crazy and I'm a laugh away from a tear."]
Stephanie, were you not watching the first half of this episode?!
Then Scotty acted like Gaga was the devil yet he was the one who looked positively possessed.
[Clip of Scotty singing "Young Blood" — "Lookie there, lookie there, lookie there, lookie there" with crazy eyes in four different camera angles]
[Jim says, "Oh my F---ing Gaga in four different camera angles, mimicking Scotty]
On Thursday night's results show...

Eek, pitchy!! Omg, I'm so kidding you guys. (whispers) it was a little pitchy.
And results! [Haley joins Lauren in the top three!]

And in the end, we all learned that it wasn't Adam Lambert who James Durbin was copying ... it was Chris Daughtry.
[Ding!]
