## Plot

Taking place after the events of the first film, the Radcliffe family and their 101 ***Dalmatians*** are preparing to move to their "Dalmatian Plantation", a home in the countryside with plenty of room for all of them. However, one of the puppies, Patch, feels ignored and wishes to be unique like his television hero, Thunderbolt. While watching *The Thunderbolt Adventure Hour*, Patch hears about a chance to appear on the show. Patch is accidentally left behind when his family leaves for the plantation, so he decides to head for the audition to meet his hero and win a guest spot on the show. Patch fails to impress the producers. Meanwhile, Thunderbolt's jealous sidekick Lil' Lightning tricks Thunderbolt into believing that he would be replaced and convinces him to go to make "real-life heroic deeds" so he would manipulate the producers into making himself the hero of his own show. Seeing how much Patch knows about his adventures, Thunderbolt decides to ask him for help.

Elsewhere in ***London***, ***Cruella de Vil***, unable to purchase furs due to being on ***probation*** and a ***restraining order*** for her previous crimes, attempts to soothe her fixation on spots with the help of Lars, a French ***beatnik*** artist. In order to inspire him, she restarts her hunt for the Dalmatians, using a newspaper picture of Patch to find their new address. Patch's family finally becomes aware that he is missing and returns to London to search for him. Cruella bails her former henchmen, Horace and Jasper Badun, out of prison. She sends them in a stolen ***dog food*** truck to steal the remaining puppies. The Baduns succeed after dealing with Nanny, and they take the puppies to Lars. When Cruella requests she be made a masterpiece from the puppies' fur, Lars refuses, not wanting to harm the puppies. Enraged, Cruella has him bound and gagged and returns to her original plan of making a Dalmatian ***fur coat***.

The imprisoned puppies use the *Twilight Bark* to send a distress signal, which is picked up by Patch and Thunderbolt, and they set out to save Patch's family. Lightning follows them and convinces Thunderbolt not to use Patch's stealth plan, but to openly attack. Cruella knocks Thunderbolt unconscious and has the Baduns lock Patch and Thunderbolt in a cage. Lightning then tells Patch that Thunderbolt is just an actor as well as his plot to upstage him. Patch falls into despair, but Lucky reminds him that Thunderbolt escaped a similar predicament in one of the TV episodes. Patch breaks out and releases his family, but Thunderbolt remains behind, ashamed of himself for disappointing Patch. The Dalmatians escape through the building's roof to a ***double-decker bus***. Meanwhile, Thunderbolt escapes from his cage and frees Lars.

Cruella and the Baduns discover the escape, and a chase ensues through the streets of London, crashing through the filming of Lil' Lightning's new show in the process. Cruella and the Baduns finally corner the puppies in an alley. Patch tries to hold them off while the others escape, but they are undaunted. Luckily, Thunderbolt arrives, having been driven to the scene by Lars, and fakes a heart attack, distracting Cruella and causing her to knock out Jasper and Horace and incapacitate herself. Patch puts the bus into reverse, sending Cruella, the Baduns, their stolen truck, and Lightning scrambling into the ***River Thames***. The police arrest the Baduns and have two ***English mastiffs*** arrest Lightning. Cruella, now driven completely insane, is sent to a mental institution. The Radcliffes and Nanny arrive, along with Patch's parents Pongo and Perdita, who thank Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt dismisses himself as just an actor, but says that Patch is "a real, one of a kind wonder-dog".

Roger and Anita Radcliffe and their canine clan are packing for the big move to Dalmatian Plantation, a home in the country with plenty of room for Pongo, Perdita, and the 99 puppies and far from the clutches of Cruella De Vil. The feistiest puppy, Patch, feels lost in a sea of spots and longs to be a one-of-a-kind wonder dog like his TV hero, Thunderbolt. While watching the ***The Thunderbolt Adventure Hour*** he constantly tries to tell everyone what's going to happen next much to their annoyance, and when he tries to bark like Thunderbolt the puppies laugh at Patch and even call him a "squeaky toy" which saddens him. As they head off to bed, Patch hears about a chance to appear on the show while it is bring filmed in ***London***. However, the move will interfere with his opportunity, late that night while everyone is asleep Patch is awake as is annoyed with everyone's sleep movements. He talks to his sleeping dad and asks if he is one of a kind or just one hundred and one, however Pongo who was sleeping says he is one hundred and one. Patch decides to sleep in the kitchen in the bag of K9 Crunchies However the next morning when he wakes up Patch is accidentally left behind in the commotion and after seeing the truck leave, Patch thinks that they don't miss him. After seeing a K9 Crunchies truck drive by he runs away and heads for the audition to meet his hero. Meanwhile the family arrives at the farm, the puppies run out of the truck so fast that Pongo is not able to count correctly and does not realize that Patch is gone. The puppies love their new home, Roger Anita and Nanny unpack and Roger finds a place for his music. Back in London, Patch makes it to the park and gets to see Thunderbolt and his "trusty" sidekick, Lil' Lightning. While Lightning tries to impress the ladies, they just turn him down as they are not interested in sidekicks. The announcers tells the audience to let their dogs come on stage and show everyone their strong bark. When Patch gets on stage he is in shock and gets stage fright resulting in him making a puppy bark which causes everyone to laugh at him and get pictures taken of him. After the show, Lil' Lightning tells Thunderbolt the producers want to replace him with a younger dog. In order to save his job, he decides he will go into the real world and perform an act of true heroism to prove himself. A veritable reference book to Thunderbolt's many adventures, Patch after seeing through his disguise provides the perfect guide for him in his attempts at real-life heroics.

Meanwhile, Cruella is back and more obsessed with dalmatians than ever however do to her probation agreement, Cruella is banned from visiting her fur shop. At first, she is able to calm her frenzy through an affiliation with a spot-fixated French artist named Lars. Meanwhile, Thunderbolt makes several attempts at "heroism", telling Patch he is giving him a "Junior Deputy Test" and will let him be on the show if he can pass. This "test" involves him unwittingly giving instructions on how Thunderbolt, who has no idea how to act without a script, should save the day. Back at his trailer, Lightning's mean nature is revealed, he is fed up with being second best, so he cons the producer, who is both desperate and frantic over Thunderbolt going missing, into recasting him as the hero. Cruella soon discovers that Lars, despite his best efforts, is unable to recreate the look she desires.

In order to inspire him, she begins hunting for the dalmatian puppies, but is angry to find Anita's house empty and that she didn't give Cruella a forwarding address. However, using a newspaper picture of Patch at the audition, she reads their new address off his ID tag. Meanwhile, he and Thunderbolt bond over their mutual fear of being "just another dog" and Thunderbolt begins teaching him how to bark properly. The Radcliffes finally become aware that he is missing as Cruella posts bail for her former cronies, Jasper and Horace, and sends them to the farm to steal the remaining 98 puppies by locking them in a stolen ***Kanine Krunchies*** truck. Lars becomes enamored with them and is inspired to paint, but Cruella announces that he going to make a masterpiece out of puppy fur. He refuses, but she simply ties him up and goes back to her original plan of making a puppy fur coat.

The imprisoned puppies use the Twilight Bark to send an SOS, which is picked up by Patch and Thunderbolt, and they set out to save Patch's family. Lightning is horrified when he discovers Thunderbolt might become a hero and hurries to the warehouse where the puppies are being held. He convinces Thunderbolt not to use Patch's stealth plan but to openly attack. However, Cruella knocks Thunderbolt unconscious with a can of paint, much to Patch's horror. When Patch runs up to Thunderbolt, Cruella spots him, shows him the newspaper photo of him and Thunderbolt, then picks him up as she explains that if it wasn't for him, she never would've found his brothers and sisters and is glad that she now has them all, then gives an evil laugh. Jasper and Horace then lock Thunderbolt and Patch in a cage. Lightning sneaks in and reveals that Thunderbolt is a fraud. Poor Patch begins to cry and is deeply hurt that Thunderbolt would lie, but soon realizes that their current situation was covered in one of the TV episodes and manages to escape. He releases his family, but Thunderbolt stays in his open cage. When Jasper and Horace wake up, they discover the puppies have escaped. They search all over while the puppies hide together on poster board to make themselves look like spot art. When Cruella notices Jasper and Horace seem to be looking for something, she asks them what they're looking for. Jasper says nothing, but Horace ill-contrivedly confesses that they haven't lost the puppies which tells Cruella that they are in fact missing. Patch then tricks them into going downstairs while the dogs escape via the roof window and get onto a double-decker bus, which they accidentally start.

Cruella follows in hot pursuit as they race through the streets of London, crashing through the filming of the new "Lil' Lightning" show. She finally corners the puppies in an alley. Patch tries to hold off the trio as the others escape, but they are undaunted. Luckily, Thunderbolt arrives (having hitched a lift with Lars) and apologizes to Patch, saying he is not a hero, but can act like one. He fakes a heart attack, distracting Cruella (and managing to have her accidentally knock out Jasper and Horace) while the puppies escape before collapsing. Patch puts the bus into reverse, forcing Cruella, Jasper, Horace, and Lil' Lightning into the Thames River.

Patch and Thunderbolt survey the scene, both letting out deep, heroic barks. Lightning is arrested, along with Jasper and Horace (who confess that Cruella forced them to commit their crimes), while Cruella, who has now driven completely insane, is sent to a mental institute. Pongo and Perdita arrive and tell Patch how proud they are of him. Thunderbolt confesses that he is just an actor, but Patch is "a real, one-of-a-kind wonder dog." A newspaper montage reveals the characters' fates: Lars, using a painting Patch accidentally made by throwing paint at Jasper and Horace, finally receives credit for his "genius"; Jasper and Horace open up a ladies' boutique with the motto: "Fur Bad, Nylon Good"; Roger's new song, "Seeing Spots", becomes a smash hit and Cruella is featured in an issue of "The Institution". A post-credits scene shows Thunderbolt, with his new sidekick Patch, in his TV show, with the other puppies serving as extras.
