The pilots are in, and Giada De Laurentiis and Bobby Flay determine the fates of the three finalists. Watch what happens behind the scenes and find out who will join the Food Network family and become a Food Network Star!
A previously eliminated competitor re-enters the competition thanks to a win on "Star Salvation"; eliminated finalists serve as sous chefs in the battle to determine which three competitors will get a chance to shoot their own pilot.
In the first challenge, the remaining finalists update their family favorites with a culinary twist; the finalists then head to the aquarium to cater a five-course, VIP dinner in celebration of the 20th anniversary of Shark Night.
The six finalists whip up dishes inspired by characters from the movie "Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation"; special guest Fran Drescher, who voices the character Eunice in the film, joins Giada De Laurentiis and Bobby Flay at the judging table.
The tables are turned on the contestants when they learn they must judge themselves; People magazine editor-in-chief Jess Cagle splits the finalists into two teams to judge and evaluate mentors Bobby Flay and Giada De Laurentiis on their own dishes.
