This sequel to Disney's 1997 hit film finds the clumsy ape man from Jay Ward's 1967 television cartoon perfectly content after having married the beautiful Ursula and fathering a child. However, all is not well in George's jungle kingdom because Ursula's scheming mother, Beatrice, has hatched a plan designed to induce Ursula to leave the klutzy George. Rounding up Ursula's still smitten ex-fiance, Beatrice plots to hypnotise Ursula and steal the jungle out from under George's feet.
