After scientist Flint Lockwood saved the world from his invention, the Flint Lockwood Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator (aka the FLDSMDFR), Chester V, the CEO of Live Corp and Flint's childhood idol, offers his company's services to help clean the food off the island. He hires Flint, but during his short tenure at Live Corp, Flint enters a competition for a promotion, only to publicly humiliate himself by accident. Chester informs Flint that the FLDSMDFR is still functioning and creating sentient food creatures known as foodimals, one of which attacked his employees stationed on Swallow Falls. Chester tells Flint that he needs to travel alone to the island, find the FLDSMDFR, and insert a USB flash drive-like device known as the BS-USB to shut it down. However, Flint takes a team of friends; his pet monkey Steve; his meteorologist girlfriend Sam Sparks; her cameraman Manny; police officer Earl Devereaux; and reformed bully “Chicken” Brent McHale. Flint also grudgingly accepts the help of Tim, his widowed father, who takes them to the island using his fishing boat. When Chester learns that Flint is not alone, he and his much-abused orangutan assistant Barb gather some of their employees and follow.
