Police Academy 3: Back in Training

Here’s the rewritten plot summary: The Governor pits two academies against each other to decide who stays open, and Lassard’s bunch of misfits are roped into a slapstick competition that somehow makes sense. Mauser’s sneaky early plan backfires when his chosen officers defect, leaving everyone to improvise. By the end, the real lesson is that chaos outruns paperwork.
