After being totally MIA for virtually the first three episodes of Glee Season 4, leading man Finn (Cory Monteith) made a shocking reappearance at the end of Season 4, Episode 3: “Makeover.”  

If you didn't notice the Glee star's physical transformation during the few short seconds he appeared on screen, you'll definitely see it in this week's episode.

After filming wrapped for Glee Season 3 this spring, Cory immediately hit the gym to work on making over his image for Season 4. "I'm doing extra stuff this summer — CrossFit and fewer Snickers bars," he said back in June. So, if we cut back on our intake of Snickers bars, could we start looking like that? Because Cory is looking quite fine these days.

The Glee star has already shed a noticeable amount of weight in the time since Season 1, but now that Finn was headed for army boot camp, Cory wanted to make an even bigger change.

As a result, the Finn of Season 4 is leaner and trimmer than we've ever seen him before. Better keep doing those pushups, Brody. Finn Hudson is back in Rachel's life, and he's looking hotter than ever. (Oh, and Finn, if that thing with Rachel ever doesn't work out — call us, maybe?)
