      Plot


      Taking place just a few months after the events of the first film, Greg Heffley has just entered seventh grade. One morning before Greg leaves for his first day of school, Frank and Susan, the latter of whom is writing a parenting column in the local newspaper, tell Greg and Rodrick that they need to spend more time together. Susan incentivizes them with play money called "mom bucks" that they can redeem for real money. When Greg returns home, a local talent show is advertised on TV, and Rodrick sees it as the big break for his band, Löded Diper. At church the following Sunday, Rodrick stains Greg's pants with chocolate, making people believe that Greg defecated in his pants, humiliating him, causing an embarrassing public scuffle between the two, and ruining Susan’s reputation.
      As punishment, Susan, Frank, and Manny go on a trip to the water park, Rockin' Rapids without Greg and Rodrick, leaving them home for the weekend to work on their differences; they are also instructed not to invite anyone over. Defying his parents immediately upon their departure, Rodrick throws a wild party which Greg and his best friend Rowley Jefferson end up participating in. The next morning, Greg and Rodrick receive a voicemail from Susan and Frank, informing them that they will be returning early from their trip due to Manny being ill, prompting them to hastily clean up the trashed house. They then find that someone wrote "Rodrick Rules" on the bathroom door in permanent marker. Greg gets the idea to replace it with the door to the basement. However, after their family gets home, they realize that the replacement door does not have a lock on it, whereas the previous one did.
      Rodrick tells Greg to deny everything, but Susan soon realizes the lock is gone and confronts Greg over it, as Rodrick refuses to tell her the truth. Greg confesses that Rodrick had people over, but lies, saying it was only a band practice and begs Susan not to punish Rodrick, suggesting it would ruin their improving relationship. Susan agrees to this, and Rodrick, believing Greg kept their secret, gains respect for him. They start spending more time together, and Rodrick attempts to give Greg advice on school and girls, though most of it backfires.
      One night, when Frank plans to show a slideshow of his civil war figurines to the editors of Susan’s paper, who are visiting the Heffleys, he ends up finding pictures of Rodrick's party. This leads to the
      family arguing in front of Susan’s editors, who refuse to continue editing her column. Greg is grounded for two weeks, while Rodrick is grounded for a month and forbidden from participating in the talent show, which leaves him distraught. Having learned that Greg partially admitted the truth to Susan earlier on, Rodrick tells Greg that they may be brothers, but will never be friends. Greg and Rodrick are punished further by being forced to spend the weekend with their grandfather at his retirement home, much to their dismay. However, Greg runs into Holly Hills, his new classmate whom he has a crush on, who is visiting her grandmother; Greg learns that Holly, like him, is also the middle child between a malicious older sibling and spoiled younger one, so she and Greg become good friends.
      The following week, the family goes to see the talent show anyway, where Rodrick finds out that he has been kicked out of his own band by Bill Walter, a guitarist he recently recruited, while Rowley's magic act is in jeopardy due to his assistant having stage fright. Reluctant because of the potential humiliation it will cause, Greg strikes a deal with Susan that he will stand in as Rowley's assistant if she lets Rodrick perform, which she agrees to. Despite multiple mishaps, "The Remarkable Rowley" and "Greg The Great" are praised by the audience, including Holly, believing the act is actually a comedy skit and that the mistakes are intentional. The audience isn't, however, as impressed by Löded Diper, until Susan starts dancing at the edge of the stage, prompting the crowd to join in. Frank tapes the footage of her dancing and he and Greg agree to keep it a secret. Rodrick kicks Bill out of the band in retaliation and reconciles with Greg.
      Greg and Rowley later upload a video of Löded Diper being upstaged by Susan's dancing onto YouTube, which goes viral, angering Rodrick.
