PLOT OF MEAN GIRLS 2

Jo Mitchell, an 18-year-old high school senior from Ohio, attends North Shore High School with the
hopes of attending Carnegie Mellon University, her late mother's alma mater. On her first day,
however, she encounters a clique called "The Plastics", composed of Mandi Weatherly, the self-
proclaimed leader; Chastity Meyer, the ditzy girl with a raging libido; and Hope Plotkin,
a hypochondriac. Jo also meets Abby Hanover, whom Mandi perceives to be a rival. Despite Jo's
attempts to avoid the Plastics, conflict develops between them and Abby.

Jo's father is a mechanic who rebuilds engines for NASCAR. As a result, she becomes quite a good
mechanic herself and ends up taking an advanced shop class, where she meets Tyler (Diego Boneta)
and falls in love with him. Her principal means of transportation is a Vespa motor scooter. A voice-
over reveals that Jo's mother died before she was one year old.

After Jo gives Abby a ride home, she meets Abby's father, a successful infomercial entrepreneur who
offers to pay Jo's college tuition in exchange for her maintaining good friends with Abby. Jo reluctantly
accepts, motivated by her desire to attend Carnegie Mellon. Jo, Tyler and Abby become close friends,
while Jo learns that Tyler is Mandi's stepbrother. Mandi also escalates her war of pranks, which
includes using artificial sweetener and coffee to ruin an engine being repaired by Jo's father.

When Jo and Abby discover that Mandi is going to throw a birthday party, Jo decides that Abby
should throw a party herself; Abby's party is the "all invited" kind, unlike Mandi's "invite only" party.
After the Plastics see no one at Mandi's house but hears Abby's party's music, they have Hope
put ipecac into the pizza that is ordered there. After Jo notices that it smells funny, she then sees
Hope also paying the pizza delivery guy and so she stashes it away. When the Plastics go to that
party, they don't see anyone puking. Just as Nick, Mandi's boyfriend, doesn't see any food, Jo gives
him the injected pizza to eat; after Mandi kisses him for Jo to see, he vomits on her.

Jo, Abby and another outcast girl, school newspaper reporter Quinn, start a new clique called the
"Anti-Plastics" and enact a series of pranks against Chastity and Hope. Jo runs against Mandi for
Homecoming Court and their campaign threatens Tyler and Jo's relationship. When Jo tries to give
back the money Sidney Hanover had given her for her friendship with Abby, Mandi overhears while
running and uses this information against her. This leads to Tyler and the "Anti-Plastics" going against
her as she is turning towards Mandi's personality.

Mandi and Nick steal the homecoming court charity money, which is to be donated to an animal
welfare group. Mandi plants the money in Jo's shed, then gives an anonymous note to Principal
Duvall stating that the money is there. Thanks to an unwitting betrayal by Quinn, Jo is expelled, but
not before she finds Mandi and challenges her to a game of flag football. Mandi refuses until she
realizes that she needs to win to remain popular, and then reluctantly agrees.

Tyler and the other Anti-Plastics try to help Jo prove her innocence with the help of the school's tech
boy, Elliott. After the Anti-Plastics beat the Plastics at flag football, Mandi and Nick are arrested after
Elliott finds images of them planting the money in Jo's home and texts them to all of the cell phones in
the audience at the game. Principal Duvall apologizes to Jo for the mix-up. At the school's
Homecoming Dance, Abby and Elliott are elected King and Queen (thanks to Jo dropping out of the
competition), and Jo and Tyler share a kiss.

The film ends with Jo and Abby deciding to attend Carnegie Mellon University together, while Tyler
attends Penn State University (presumably on a soccer scholarship), which is a short drive from
Carnegie Mellon, and Quinn assuming the position she has long coveted — the leader of the Plastics.
Although Mandi and Nick both got community service and were allowed to graduate (thanks in some
part to their parents for donating a new library for the school), they lost their popularity for their cruel
actions, earning Mandi a bad reputation. Chastity learns the meaning of her name, and Hope begins
working on overcoming her fear of germs.
