‘American Idol’: See all the performances from ‘The Comeback’ episode, how to vote Updated 9:57 AM; Last night’s “American Idol” episode didn’t actually include anyone from this season. The singing competition brought back 10 finalists from the previous season to compete for one second-chance spot on this season. On Sunday night, the show narrowed down the competition to the top 9, allowing for one extra spot. Two Berklee College of Music students were part of the show but Brennan ‘Beane’ Hepler was eliminated. Grace Kinstler, however, got enough fan votes to continue. Fans also have a chance to vote for the contestant from The Comeback episode. Fans can vote up to 10 times per voting platform.
