While Beiste took a leave of absence at the end of last week's episode to have a surgery done to remove her breasts, Jones reveals it won't be a long one. I come back in episode six and it's a big difference," she teases. As for the response Beiste, who will go by the name Sheldon, will receive at McKinley, Jones says, "It's awesome, it's very positive."

And Jones reveals she will perform on the series for the first time in episode 11. Declining to reveal the song she'll be tackling, Jones says, "I'm performing with a bunch of the kids. All I know is I'm a hot mess out there!"

Currently filming episode 11, Jones says the cast are receiving scripts as they are written, so she has no idea how Beiste's journey will end. But  she hopes Beiste ends the series "happy, she's been through enough."

Glee airs tonight at 9 p.m. on Fox.
