Plot (Story)
In the beginning of the movie after seeing Maggie Dunlop was away to her solo business trip, we see George (Frank Welker) and his guardian; Ted (Jeff Bennett) to the city park to fly a kite on a very windy day. But however after Ted lets go of the kite string, and George was flying high above meeting the other people, children and animals, not noticing causing trouble in the city park, not much to Ted's amuse. When George meets Ted right at to the popcorn stand, Ted gave the anger people the payment cards and took George to the museum to get himself clean up while George plays around with the statues.

One moment later, Hal Houston (voiced by John Goodman) and his assistant; Andrew (voiced by Alexander Polinsky) came by, and he asks George to help completing the very important space mission (which is putting the RDS control to locate the satellite tower to the leaky dam in Central Africa). Ted then accepts Houston's request and lets George completes his training in the GSA "without a hitch".

After the training, before blasting off, Ted gave George his yellow hat, as a token to remember him, as George's company since he couldn't come with him. In outer space, "Space Monkey" George had manage to grab the RSD control from the inside of the space satellite. Everyone (except the nervous Ted, who's watching George on screen) was full of good cheer as Andrew located the capsule back to earth bringing George back home.

During on break, George goes monkeying around with a water squirter and accidentally squirted on the controls, causing the capsule into a "free fall". This shocks and freaks out Ted, and he and Andrew both ordered George to immediately hit the eject button to escape, and George was suddenly parachuted onto a branch in his current home of Africa and swung over the animals (inspired from the 2006 film) to have explore and have fun. Meanwhile, Ted, refusing to lose his sight of his monkey, goes on his own to find and retrieve George while Houston and Andrew were both stand put.

Ted anxiously learns how to fly a plane, but afterwards he crashes between both boulders on a shore and started to find George. Back in Africa, George, while wearing Ted's yellow hat, was having fun with the animals, rescuing a baby rhino from a large puddle of mud and swinging vines. The next day, George rode off with the giraffes as the zebras rode on, while an exhausted Ted sat underneath a cliff. After few seconds, George and Ted were finally together again at last and started heading back to the headquarters with Houston and Andrew.

But, George however tries to show Ted his animal friends and has being playing around in the jungle, but a furious Ted, sending him over the edge, tells his monkey in his fit of anger and first time scolding "Bad George!", making George feel hurtful, unaware that Houston and Andrew were standing (while on a search to find George) behind Ted and overhears the secret and the whole thing. Upset and angry by Ted not been honesty right before George was been sent to the capsule, Houston announced the mission is now been cancelled because of Ted's secret, much to George's anger, who stops befriends with him, angrily started turning and walking away.

But just as almost grabbing Houston's arm to stop him and tries again to tell him the reason, Ted suddenly heard a gorilla growling voice and a female voice, calling out an animal poacher. Scared and nervous, Ted ran so fast, without looking, tripping a rock and accidentally sprain his ankle, thus a gorilla named Seymour; who caught up to him, scaring him with his loud roar, and a woman named [https://curious-george.wikia.com/wiki/Dr. Naja Kulinda] (voiced by Angela Bassett); who is an female African doctor and strongly mistakenly Ted as a animal prevent, not trusting or believing him as a museum director.

She took him and an enraged George (after she finds him, unnoticed about George's name) to her tree-house filled with animals, where Ted, sitting with Seymour while been tied up and his ankle being bandaged, tries to clear-out-talk about the situation to Dr. Kulinda after she shows up with George in her arms and disguising her real name to "Dr. African Scientist Worker Lady", and she refused to listen and tells Ted that all the phones are out.

That night, after managing to untied the ropes, Ted, shown in his long night shirt and a night cap, came upstairs to apologize to a fierce George for calling him "bad", using his actions, saying that he is "the best George in the whole world" and also tells him he doesn't like when George turn away on him and been ignored, just because he was angery before, refusing to let George do the same. George, feeling calm and now understood, happily forgives Ted with a huge hug. Soon after, Dr. Kulinda, after hearing George happy chatters and along with Seymour, came by, realizing that George was really "a monkey astronaut" and Ted was the museum director and was George's guardian, and she feels completely understand and owes Ted her apology for being misunderstanding and wants to show him and George the meaning of an African Lifetime. Soon enough, both Dr. Kulinda and Ted both saw George's space capsule and the dam from the tower treetop.

The next day, Dr. Kulinda and Seymour were preparing for the arrival of the storm, while Ted and George rode off to find the capsule, where George grabs the RDS control and Ted puts in the location to the leaky dam on his cellphone on a map in Central Africa. Afterwards, Ted and George rode on a log flow to the big river (noticing that they heading the wrong path after water slide down to the river). Then, George, while playing a jungle rhyme ("Welcome to Paradise"), seeks in the help of the group of the animals to push out Ted's plane out of the boulders.

After finally arrived to the bridge and the tower, Ted, refusing to let George gave up on his mission and deciding to throw cautions in the wind, creates a kite out of his map and George placed the control to the satellite tower and involves the dam. Ted announced that he'll go on the adventure with George any time as his token of his gratitude reward.

Back home to Chicago, at the GSA, Houston awards George and Ted as heroes with their metals, but Ted attempts to give his heroic metal back to Hal Houston for not telling the truth. Then, a redeemed Hal Houston kindly lets Ted keep the medal by saying, "Every men sometimes makes mistakes, and was given a second chance.", much to Ted's joyful. Andrew later gifted him and George with two pairs of rocket boasters, where the scene shows Ted and George start up their boasters and started flying high in the sky, have an incredible flight, while Ted said to George that he will never call him bad ever again. The last scene shows George taking out Ted's cellphone and takes a photo of himself and Ted with a "click".
