Police Academy

In an unnamed city, the mayor orders the Metropolitan Police to accept all willing applicants for training, regardless of suitability. Hundreds apply, including social misfit Carey Mahoney, who's forced to sign up after being offered a deal by Captain Reed to avoid jail. As Mahoney navigates the challenges of police academy, he finds himself at odds with the tough but lovable Lieutenant Thaddeus Harris, while developing a mutual attraction to classmate Karen Thompson. Alongside a motley crew of fellow recruits, including Moses Hightower and Eugene Tackleberry, Mahoney must balance his desire to learn and prove himself with his mischievous streak and penchant for getting into trouble.
