To preparefor Face the Music , the best thing to do would be to rewatch 1989 ’s Bill & Ted’sExcellent Adventureand 1991’sBill & Ted ’s Bogus Journey . But , if you do n’t have the fourth dimension , you could either get in a time - traveling phone booth and make the time or keep reading . We did just that ( the rewatch , not the fourth dimension change of location ) and , though we haven’tseen the newfangled filmyet , we have a good theme of all the important choice morsel you ’ll need to know before face the music .

Bill S. Preston , Esq . , and Ted “ Theodore ” Logan are two adolescent living in 1989 San Dimas , California . The twosome are inseparable right Friend who love rock medicine , “ sister , ” and water slide , and shoot for to one Clarence Shepard Day Jr. be huge star with their stripe , Wyld Stallyns . However , they do n’t know how to act as instruments or read medicine . Also , the band is in risk of breaking up because Ted is exit to be sent to military schoolhouse if he flunks account , which he ( and Bill ) are almost certainly proceed to .

That ca n’t happen though . You see , 700 age in the time to come , society is built around the principal and euphony of Wyld Stallyns — Bill and Ted ’s euphony turns out to be so unspoiled it actually alter the universe . To check that the band stays together and that materialise , a human being from that future named Rufus ( George Carlin ) impose Bill and Ted a gives them a prison term - traveling phone booth . His thinking is they can use it to learn about account by going there and seeing it for themselves then hopefully go along the concluding test .

Bill and Ted are convinced to go on this diachronic journey thanks to their future ego distinguish them to trust Rufus . So off they go and instead of merely learning about people from the past , they decide to lend the past back with them . The duet kidnaps Napoleon , Billy the Kid , Socrates , Joan of Arc , Genghis Khan , Sigmund Freud , Beethoven , and Abraham Lincoln , who all come to 1989 San Dimas and serve Bill and Ted pass off the final . Along the way , the duet also meet two princesses , Elizabeth ( Kimberley LaBelle ) and Joanna ( Diane Franklin ) , from mediaeval England , who Rufus bring back to San Dimas to join the band . They still ca n’t recreate music but Rufus assure the audience that they will , eventually , fulfill their portion .

Also of importance from the first movie is that Ted ’s pappa ( Hal Landon Jr. ) is a very strict police officer and Bill’sdad wed a woman name Missy(Amy Stoch ) who is only three years aged than Bill and Ted .

Fast forward a few years and the Wyld Stallyns still have n’t become famous . They hope to exchange that at an upcoming battle of the bands , but another succeeding fellow named Chuck De Nomolos ( Joss Ackland ) creates robot versions of Bill and Ted to down them and sabotage the peaceable future . Everything in Bogus Journey is super duper weird from there but here are the most important bits .

foremost , Bill and Ted propose to Elizabeth and Joanna . Also , the robots are successful in murdering Bill and Ted but while in the afterlife , they befriend the Grim Reaper , aka Death ( William Sadler ) . He get together them on their quest back to spirit and to save the world from the evil golem . Which they do at the aforementioned San Dimas struggle of the bands that becomes a global effect .

You see , after the evil robot are defeated by good Bill and Ted golem that an extraterrestrial named Station create for them , De Nomolos reappear hoping to kill Bill and Ted on his own . To document his victory , he sets every TV channel in the world to this picky battle of the bands . Bill and Ted defeat him , of course , and then metre travel for 16 months so they can eventually find out to play instrumental role . When they rejoin ( which happen in an instant because , you have intercourse , sentence travel ) , Wyld Stallyns — which includes Elizabeth , Joanna , Death , and Station — play an heroic execution that ’s simultaneously pass around all over the Earth . This is what eventually leads them to fame and stardom . Over the picture ’s mention , headline from various magazine and newspapers reveal that Wyld Stallyns have help add peace treaty to the world , saved the environment , had a flick made about them and , eventually , execute a concert on Mars .

Also of note , when they return from their trip to learn to play music , Bill and Ted have both become Padre . Bill has a son he named Ted , and Ted has a son he named Bill .

Which , for 30 years , we all thought was the end . The destiny of the first flick had been fulfilled . And yet , somehow , it has n’t . Bill & Ted Face the Music seems to act like none of what happens during the credits of Bogus Journey happened . The yoke also now have daughters(Brigette Lundy - Paine and Samara Weaving ) instead of sons . How that all connect together , what cosmic event made everything change trend , we do n’t know . But we ’ll all find out very , very before long .
