Happy Death Day 2U Plot

The movie follows the story of college student Ryan Phan, who wakes up in his car on September 19. He discovers that he is stuck in a time loop, reliving the same day over and over again. Ryan is working on an experimental quantum reactor project with his friends Samar and Dre, trying to slow down time. However, their project gets shut down by the school dean, Bronson, due to power outages and lack of practical applications.

One day, Ryan is murdered by someone dressed as the school mascot, Babyface. But to his surprise, he wakes up again on September 19. He learns from his roommate Carter and Carter's girlfriend, Tree, that they have also experienced the time loop. Together, they try to figure out why the loop is happening and how to stop it.

They discover that the quantum reactor they were working on is responsible for creating the loop. They are then pursued by the masked killer, who turns out to be another version of Ryan. He warns them that the original Ryan must die for the loop to close. Terrified, Ryan activates the reactor, causing everyone to lose consciousness.

Tree wakes up in a different reality on September 18, where her mother is still alive. She decides to stay in this reality, but soon realizes that there is another killer on the loose. She tries to stop him but fails, eventually falling to her death. However, she wakes up again at the beginning of the loop and seeks help from Ryan and his team to escape it.

They conduct numerous tests and eventually find the correct algorithm to break the loop. But Tree is faced with a difficult choice of which reality she wants to be in when both loops close. She decides to return to her original dimension and make things right. With the help of her friends, Tree confronts the killers and saves her loved ones.

In the end, Tree and Carter share a kiss, and she is sent back to September 19 in her original dimension. Later, Tree and her friends are taken to a laboratory to continue experimenting with the quantum reactor. They suggest using Danielle, Carter's girlfriend, as the next test subject, hinting at the possibility of another time loop. The movie ends with Danielle waking up in horror, implying that the time loop may continue.
