It'll pick up where it left, except there's a brand new competition this time. While the students are shown to be pumped about repeating their applaud-worthy performance, West High announces they will work on 'The Little Mermaid'. This puts East High's Miss Jenn on the spot, who then ditches the plan of presenting 'High School Musical 2'. She suggests 'Beauty and the Beast'. Will East High succeed? Only time will tell. Season 2 will have 12 episodes, instead of 10.
