Be prepared to discuss why you feel that you are an even better candidate this time. They may ask you what you might have done differently in interview number one. Unless you are aware of something obvious or can use this opening to inject mild humor into the process, I would focus on describing the strengths you feel that you possess that perhaps did not come across well in interview one. You want them to grasp that you consider the first interview a positive experience even though you were not hired. You also want to emphasize that you like their company enough to keep trying.

Best of Luck!
