In the first episode of Face Off season 2, titled "Return To Oz," fourteen talented special effects makeup artists are welcomed back to the Face Off competition. Each contestant is introduced with a brief overview of their background in makeup and their motivation for returning to the show. They are also given a crash course on the tools and resources available to them in the competition.

The first challenge of the season is revealed: to create a unique, fantastical character inspired by the classic story of The Wizard of Oz. Contestants are given a short amount of time to sketch and plan out their designs before diving into the workroom to start building their characters.

As the artists get to work, tensions rise and personalities clash. Many of them struggle with the idea of creating a character that is both fantastical and recognizable as an homage to The Wizard of Oz. The judges, including makeup artist Ve Neill, special effects artist Glenn Hetrick, and actor/director Michael Westmore, roam the workroom to ask probing questions and offer guidance.

As the clock ticks down and the artists race to finish their characters, it becomes clear that some are better equipped to handle the pressure of the challenge than others. The judges take note of each artist's strengths and weaknesses, and offer constructive feedback and criticism as they work.

Finally, it's time for the finished characters to be presented on the Face Off stage. The judges assess each creation based on its creativity, execution, and adherence to the challenge. Some artists impress with bold choices and intricate detail, while others fall short with lackluster characters or sloppy application.

After careful consideration, the judges announce the top and bottom looks of the challenge. The top artists are celebrated for their ability to capture the essence of The Wizard of Oz while adding their own unique twist, while the bottom artists are called out for failing to meet the criteria of the challenge.

In the end, one artist is crowned the winner of the challenge and another is sent home, marking the first elimination of the season. The rest of the artists brace themselves for the next challenge, wondering what twists and turns the Face Off competition has in store for them over the coming weeks.
