Brad Falchuk, Glee co-creator, tells The New York Post, "We've always explored from the pilot, this idea of the conflict of these two worlds: the glee club and the cool, popular jocky kids at the school.

So, what can we expect from the special episode that cost $3.5 million (yes, million) to make? Big production numbers and a compelling story arc. As in huge like Katy Perry's "California Gurls" and the late Michael Jackson's "Thriller." Brad adds, "It feels similar to the pilot -- a lot of heart."
