Plot
Following its predecessor, the film places the 1970s Brady Bunch
family in a contemporary 1990s setting, where much of humor is
derived from the resulting culture clash and the utter lack of
awareness the Bradys show towards their unusual lifestyle.
One evening, a man claiming to be Carol Brady's long-lost first
husband, Roy Martin, shows up at the suburban Brady residence. The
man is actually an impostor named Trevor Thomas, and is there to
steal the Bradys' familiar horse statue which is actually a $20
million ancient artifact. The Bradys, portrayed as naive, believe
Trevor's story about suffering from amnesia and having plastic
surgery after being injured. Throughout "Roy's" stay at the Bradys,
he is openly hostile to them, his sarcasm and insults completely
going over his hosts' heads. Eventually, Trevor's ruse is uncovered
by Bobby and Cindy; in retaliation, Trevor kidnaps Carol and takes
her and the artifact to a buyer in Hawaii. The remaining Brady
family travels to Hawaii to save Carol and foil Trevor's plans.
Besides the main storyline, the children have their own sub-plots in
the film. Greg and Marcia both want to move out of their shared
rooms, and when neither wants to back down, they have to share the
attic together. When Roy's arrival suggests that Carol and Mike
might not be married, Greg and Marcia realise they might not be
brother and sister anymore, leading to sexual tensions rising
between them. Jan's sub-plot involves her making up a pretend
boyfriend named George Glass in order to make herself seem more
popular. Peter, who is trying to decide what career path to choose,
starts idolizing and emulating Roy. The youngest, Bobby and Cindy,
start a "Detective Agency" hunting down Cindy's missing doll, an act
that unexpectedly leads them to discover Roy's true intentions.
