(CBS) "Glee" paid tribute to Lady Gaga last season, and now the show is honoring her and her music again - in an extra-large episode.

The show's April 26 installment, inspired by Gaga's self-acceptance anthem "Born This Way," will be expanded to 90 minutes - half an hour longer than usual.

TVLine.com has some of the plot details, so skip this part if you want to be spoiler-free:

According to the report, Lauren (Ashley Fink) will battle cheerleader Quinn (Dianna Agron) for prom queen, and Rachel (Lea Michele) considers getting a nose job.

And, of course, they'll perform the Gaga hit - and learn a lesson about accepting what makes them unique.

"Glee" returns from hiatus on April 19. The show airs on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EDT.
