Former finalists return to the kitchen for a second shot at stardom!

Finalists shoot 30-second screen tests explaining what they're all about and show them at a VIP event in Hollywood. Then the finalists get a rude surprise when an eliminated contestant from a previous season joins the competition.

The finalists join forces to create a five-course meal composed of nothing but indulgent, over-the-top dishes. Each finalist presents their course, describing its uniqueness to guest judges Alex Guarnaschelli and Trisha Yearwood.

Finalists deliver a trendy remote food report for ET hosts Kevin Frazier and Nancy O'Dell. Then, they prepare a special tableside dining experience and get a few curve balls thrown at them by Hannah Hart and Jesse Tyler Ferguson.

Chef Robert Irvine shows his love of NASCAR and challenges the finalists to create a dish worthy of a world-class tailgate party. Then, Robert and Katie Lee help Giada De Laurentiis and Bobby Flay decide who is sent home.
