What happens in Bayside Shakedown 2 from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Five years have passed since the events of the previous film, and the fictional Wangan Station of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has transformed into something almost unrecognizable. The once-dormant space within Wangan’s jurisdiction—derisively nicknamed the “empty space station”—has become a bustling tourist magnet, and the officers now juggle a constant stream of tourist-related issues while trying to keep order. The contrast between old policing habits and new foot traffic creates a fresh backdrop for the city’s undercover feel of routine and risk.
