For those who may need a refresher, Ted 2 picks up where the original left off. John Bennett (Mark Wahlberg) and his beloved teddy bear, Ted (voiced by Seth MacFarlane), are living together in a Boston apartment. However, their carefree existence is disrupted when Ted is taken into custody by the authorities, who deem him a menace to society. As John and his girlfriend, Samantha (Amanda Seyfried), work to clear Ted's name, they discover a surprising twist: Ted has been declared a person and is now entitled to certain rights. This sets off a series of events as Ted and John navigate the complexities of the law and confront a host of eccentric characters.
