WATCH: The Long Lost Klaine "Box Scene" on GLEE

Ryan Murphy is wasting no time at becoming a Twitter pro. The GLEE creator tweeted on Wednesday, "Gleeks are the best fans in the world. Because you asked for it...here is the long lost Klaine Box Scene." He's referring to last year's Christmas episode of GLEE in which Blaine gave Kurt a box containing a ring he’d made out of gum wrappers. Only we never saw it because the scene was cut.

Murphy has finally released it and you can watch it below:
