Lazy Son Of A Millionaire Must Repeat Grades 1-12 To Inherit The Money - YouTube

Hi, Mystery Recapped here. Today I am  going to explain an American comedy film  

called “Billy Madison”.  Watch out and take care!  

Billy Madison is a spoiled 27-year-old man-child.  All he does is drink, play silly pranks with his  

friends, and stare at nude magazines for hours.  He hasn’t grown a day since middle school,  

much to his father Brian’s annoyance. Brian is the  founder of one of the largest chain of restaurants  

in the US. He always had the wish  to pass down his fortune to his son,  

but because of Billy’s lifestyle, he is rethinking  the decision. One day, Brain invites his business  

associates for dinner at his house. Two of the  guests at the dinner are the company’s executive  

vice president Eric and operations manager Carl.  Eric and Carl are close to Brain and help him make  

all the important decisions about the company. Brian wants to officially announce his retirement  

but Billy interrupts him every time he starts to  talk. Eric doesn’t like Billy and does everything  

he can to keep him childish so he wouldn’t be  appointed as the chairman of the company. He makes  

faces at Billy, making him yell gibberish. In the  end, Brian yells at Billy to get out. Following  

that, he goes out with his friends to a fast-food  restaurant. As usual, they talk like kids and  

prank older people. Back in the mansion, Eric lays  down all the childish things that Billy has said  

and done and convinces Brian he isn’t eligible to  take over the business. Carl, on the other hand,  

claims that there is still hope for Billy but Eric  dismisses him. In reality, he wants to be promoted  

as the president, so he is doing everything in  his power to remove his biggest competition.  

Later at night, Brian calls Billy to his study  room to inform him of something big. He reveals  

that he has decided to hand the business over  to Eric who he thinks is the most competent  

of being a president. Billy is in shock because  his father has never denied to give him something,  

let alone their family business. He argues that  Eric is cruel and uncaring but Brian is adamant  

about his decision. He reveals that back when  Billy was in high school, he had bribed the  

high school teachers to give him passing grades.  Not just that but every grade Billy ever passed  

was because Brian somehow bribed the teacher.  Including the second grade where he spelled  

Back as B-a-k and still passed. Since Billy  isn’t even a high school graduate, there is  

no room for him to go against the decision. Desperate to be heard, Billy proposes a deal  

to his father. He promises to study in each  grade of school for two weeks and pass them all.  

If he manages to do so, Brian will be sure of his  worthiness and hand the company to him. But if he  

doesn’t, Eric will be named the president. Brian  likes the idea and makes some calls to get his son  

into the first grade. The next day, the housemaid  Juanita makes Billy a lunch box and sends him  

off to catch the school bus. He waits for it  but the bus passes by him without stopping.  

When he reaches the school with his father, the  first person he sees is the third-grade teacher,  

Veronica. She recognizes Billy as the spoiled  rich kid and instantly dislikes him. Following  

the brief encounter, Billy goes to his  class and meets his new little friends.  

He gets along with them pretty quickly because  even though he is older, his personality is not  

different from theirs. They listen to stories,  play dodgeball, sleep during naptime, and do  

the regular things that first graders do. After school, a kid's mother comes to pick him up  

and flirts with Billy. She is even more intrigued  when her son informs her that he is his classmate.  

The next two weeks are fun for Billy. He  makes friends with everyone in the class  

and is well-liked by his teacher Miss Lippy.  Although he sometimes accidentally eats glue,  

fights with the kids about video games, and  has problems using the children’s urinals,  

he is overall happy. After drawing a blue duck on  a drawing test, he passes first grade and throws  

a huge graduation party for his friends. The  party has a pinata stuffed with Rolex watches and  

expensive chocolates. His father, who had no faith  in Billy, is pleasantly surprised that he passed.  

The only person not pleased about him passing  the grade is Eric. He has even appointed the  

school’s janitor to keep an eye on Billy. The second grade is more difficult than he had  

thought, especially because of the spelling  tests. Billy goes against a little girl  

in a spelling competition which he wins after  spelling the word “couch” correctly. Because  

of the win, he passes third grade and throws  an even bigger party. He invites all of his  

friends and plays with them on water slides.  Eric is also at the party and is planning to  

do something big to make Billy fail. The second grade is more difficult than he  

had thought, especially because of the spelling  tests. Billy goes against a little girl in a  

spelling competition which he wins after spelling  the word “couch” correctly. Because of the win,  

he passes third grade and throws an even  bigger party. He invites all of his friends  

and plays with them on water slides. Eric  is also at the party and is planning to  

do something big to make Billy fail. Finally, in the third grade, Veronica turns  

out to be his teacher. Although she picks on him  and doesn’t really like him, Billy is motivated to  

go to school just to see her. He creates trouble  in her class simply to be noticed, making it clear  

that he likes her. One day, she finds him drawing  pictures of a half-naked girl in his notebook.  

To teach him a lesson, she asks him to write a  few words on the board in cursive handwriting.  

He does pretty well for the first few words, but  cannot seem to write the letter “z” correctly.  

Veronica makes fun of him in front of the  entire class and humiliates him. Billy bursts  

out shouting that he hates all of them and runs  home. The next morning, he pretends to be sick  

so he wouldn’t have to go to school again. But  maid Juanita tells him that he will have to help  

her shave her armpit if he stays home. Billy  reluctantly goes to school, not wanting to face  

Veronica again. To his luck, she calls in sick  that very day. In her place, the principal of  

the school, Mr. Anderson takes the class. During  recess, Billy receives several cards since it is  

also valentine’s day. He is the coolest guy  in the class and is liked by many girls.  

After school, Billy and his third-grade friend  Ernie hang out at his house. Billy misses Veronica  

and asks Ernie to call her to see if she likes him  too. Earnie talks to her normally before asking  

her if she would date anyone from their class.  Veronica calls Billy immature and ends the phone  

call. The next day is the school field trip. On  their way to the location, some guys dare Billy  

to touch Veronica’s chest. He happily accepts  the challenge and pretends to fall on top of her.  

Veronica, on the other hand, playfully calls  him out for it as the kids laugh at him.  

Later, Billy apologizes to her for what happened  and she forgives him. Then, he notices Ernie  

standing alone in a corner and finds out that he  has wet his pants. To help his friend, Billy also  

wets his crotch and claims that peeing yourself  is cool. All the children follow his lead and wet  

their pants one after another. After seeing him  help Earnie, Veronica starts to like Billy.  

In the following scene, Billy throws a third  party on passing the third grade. This one is  

even bigger than the former two parties combined.  Kids run around the huge weather park that he has  

arranged in front of his mansion. Veronica also  comes to the party and gives him snack packs as  

a graduation gift. Billy shows her around as they  talk about different things. They eventually end  

up inside a tent and are about to kiss when  Carl interrupts them. He warns Billy of Eric  

who is planning something for his downfall. Billy  thanks him for the warning but doesn’t think much  

of it. Starting that day, he studies hard and  passes the next four grades without any problem.  

It has been a while since he met Veronica, so he  kisses her picture when he misses her. He is still  

best friends with the third-grade students and  hangs out with them during the lunch break. They  

often invite him to play soccer but the more he is  promoted to upper grades, the busier he gets.  

When he passes the eighth grade, he organizes  yet another party to celebrate his entry to high  

school. The school’s principal, Mr. Anderson meets  Eric in private during the party. Eric has done  

some digging and found out about Anderson’s double  life. It turns out that he used to be a wrestler  

who accidentally killed a man by sitting on him  for too long. If people find out about this,  

he will lose his job as the principal. Eric takes  advantage of his situation and blackmails him.  

He wants Anderson to spread a rumor that Billy  bribed him to pass the tests. With no other way  

out, Mr. Anderson agrees to lie. The next day  is Billy’s first day at high school. The last  

time he was in high school, Billy was one of the  popular guys. He had thought that it would be the  

same this time around as well, but in contrast, no  one pays attention to him. During chemistry class,  

he makes obnoxious jokes about the teacher but no  one laughs. A girl even asks him to not talk to  

her because he is a loser and she doesn’t want to  be made fun of. One of the cool kids drops curry  

on top of his head. Billy misses his third-grader  friends and goes to meet them during recess.  

When asked about high school, he  lies and claims that everyone is  

nice to him and he is having a great time. At home, he realizes that when he was popular,  

he also bullied the introverted kids. He calls  one of them named Danny and apologizes to him.  

While on the phone, Danny simply forgives him  but after the call, he crosses out Billy’s name  

from the “people to kill” list. Later that day,  principal Andrews publicly announces that he  

was bribed by Billy to give him passing grades. A  disappointed Brian hands over the company to Eric  

and doesn’t believe Billy when he tries to  explain himself. Billy loses all hope and  

returns to his old lifestyle; partying all  the time and pranking people. Veronica knows  

that he worked hard for the grades, hence she  picks him up one day and beats him brutally,  

trying to motivate him to not give up without  a fight. Meanwhile, Billy’s third-grade friends  

protest outside the principal’s house, making him  come clean about Billy’s grade and his lies.  

After finding out the truth, Brian is ready to  give his son a second chance to continue high  

school. However, Eric protests and claims  that since Billy didn’t complete the ninth  

grade in two weeks, he isn’t eligible for the  company’s presidency. When Brian still doesn’t  

side with him, Eric threatens to sue him. Billy  challenges him to an academic decathlon to finally  

settle their feud with the winner  getting to take over the business.  

The next Friday, they gather at school for the  competition. While Eric wins the math test,  

Billy does great in the pie cooking competition.  Similarly, both of them win in some tests and  

lose in others. By the end of it, Billy is  winning by a single point. The next day,  

everyone gathers at the auditorium for the final  round that will determine the winner. Billy is  

asked a question about the industrial revolution  and replies with a completely idiotic answer.  

Then, Eric is asked a question regarding business  ethics. Eric being an unethical businessman has  

no answer to the question. On realizing that he is  about to lose, he brings out a revolver, ready to  

shoot Billy dead. He is saved when Anderson,  in his wrestling gear, tackles Eric. After  

recovering from the attack, he attempts to shoot  Veronica, but before he can, he is shot by Danny,  

whom Billy apologized to earlier for bullying. In the following scene, Billy is at his graduation  

ceremony. He announces that he wants to pass the  responsibility of his father’s business onto Carl,  

who is more deserving than him. Billy also  reveals that he plans to attend college  

in order to become a teacher. In the last scene,  we see Eric, walking away from the ceremony in  

crutches while the others celebrate. Subscribe for more videos like this,
