In the spring of 1974, nearly two years following the events of the first film, Vada Sultenfuss sets out on a quest to learn more about her deceased biological mother. She has matured from the spunky eleven-year-old hypochondriac she once was to a more serious teenager seeking independence. Her father Harry and his new wife Shelly DeVoto, whom he dated in the first film and eventually married, are expecting a baby. They still live in the Sultenfuss funeral parlour in Madison, Pennsylvania, while Harry's brother Phil has moved to Los Angeles, where he works as a mechanic. Vada's paternal grandmother, Gramoo, has since died. Vada still has her mood ring from two years earlier and wears it in memory of her late best friend Thomas J., who died from an allergic reaction to bee stings, inflicted while retrieving the ring for her after she had lost it.
