Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home is the 1995 sequel to Free Willy, directed by Dwight Little and featuring most of the main cast from the first film.Two years have passed since Jesse helped release Willy back into the wild, and he and his adoptive parents are prepared to go on a camping trip to San Juan Island. Before they can go, Jesse is informed that his mother has died and has left behind Jesse's half-brother Elvis. The two do not get along, but that doesn't stop the vacation. Once there, Jesse reunites with Willy, who has been happily reunited with his family. But when an oil tanker ruptures and spills its contents out into the bay, Willy's sister Luna gets sick and beaches herself. With Luna's life in the balance, Jesse must help her recover and reunite Willy's siblings with the rest of his family. | |

Annoying Younger Sibling | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_130436b9 | comment |
Annoying Younger Sibling: When Jesse meets his younger brother Elvis, he instantly hates him. They continue to antagonize each other throughout the movie, but begin to develop a genuine bond as the story goes on, and by the end their animosity has turned to more playful teasing than genuine conflict. According to the novelization, Willy also feels this way about his little brother Littlespot, who's always following him around and copying his actions, but it's indicated to be because the younger whale looks up to him. | |

| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: Jesse's mom. At the beginning of the film, it's revealed that she passed away. Elvis later tells Jesse that before she died, she told Elvis that giving Jesse up was the hardest choice she ever had to make. | |

Artifact Title | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_2b7d29e1 | comment |
Artifact Title: There isn't a whole lot of literal freeing in this movie. Unless the "free" there is supposed to be an adjective describing Willy, it doesn't really make sense. Getting Willy and his family from the cove and the oil spill could be considered setting him free, in addition to the fact that the owner of the oil tanker intends to capture and sell Willy and his family. This was actually going to be averted as the film was originally called Willy 2: The Adventure Home (early trailers carry this title). Warner Bros probably feared people not getting the connection to Free Willy. | |

Deceased Parents Are the Best | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_3866ab91 | comment |
Deceased Parents Are the Best: Jesse's defensiveness of his mom (which was already seemingly undeserved given her actions) only becomes more fervent than ever after he learns that she's died. Subverted with Elvis, whose grief at one point comes out as resentment towards his mother for "leaving" him. | |

Magical Native American: While Randolph averted this trope in the first movie, it's played much more straight here. It's Randolph's traditional medicine that makes Luna better. | |

Happily Adopted | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_48e8fe57 | comment |
Happily Adopted: Though he's technically still a foster kid rather than formally adoptednote potentially because there were still legal roadblocks relating to Jesse's biological mother, it's clear pretty much from the first scene that Glen and Annie have become Jesse's true parents in every way except legally. The end of the episode suggests that the same may soon be true of Elvis, though we never find out how this played out in the long run. | |

| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_66dfe36a | comment |
Missing Mom: The film begins with Jesse learning that his mom — who he hasn't seen since he was six — has died. He also learns that before her death, his mother had another son, leaving that boy (Elvis) now without a mother as well. | |

One Dialogue, Two Conversations | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_71152dd | comment |
One Dialogue, Two Conversations: Among the lies that Elvis tells is that he saw Jesse kissing Nadine. In light of this, Glen attempts to give Jesse The Talk, but he doesn't specify what he's talking about first, so Jesse thinks Glen is trying to warn him about playing with the whales. It's not until Glen says "it" can lead to sex that Jesse figures out they're not on the same page. (Although given that he does kiss Nadine a few scenes later anyway — albeit it's a single kiss rather than the full-blown make-out session that Elvis had implied — giving him The Talk might not have been the worst idea in retrospect.) | |

Crying Wolf: Elvis has a habit of doing this. Consequently, Glen and Annie don't believe him at first about the crashed oil tanker, until they actually hear Willy calling. And he really does know martial arts. | |

Sour Outside, Sad Inside | |
| Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home / int_838748cb | comment |
Sour Outside, Sad Inside: At first, Elvis acts rude and dismissive towards Jesse and the Greenwoods, and is smug with his constant lies. Later, when Jesse asks him about their deceased mother, Elvis breaks down as he denies this (which is revealed to be yet another lie at the end), openly expressing his resentment towards her for "leaving" him. | |
