The plot of the film centers around Paul Blart. He resides in West Orange, New Jersey, with his teenage daughter, Maya, and mother, Margaret. He is employed as a security guard at the fictional West Orange Pavilion Mall. Blart constantly patrols the mall on a Segway to assure safety and cleanliness. As he continues with his duties he becomes acquainted with Amy Anderson, the vendor of a new kiosk.
Two days later, on the night of Black Friday, an organized gang of criminals disguised as Santa’s Village employees start what appears to be a bank heist inside the mall. Simms has revealed as the gang’s leader whose mall security job was a ploy to gather intelligence. The criminals force shoppers to exit the mall and strategically place motion sensors around each entrance to detect any attempt to come in or leave the building.
Blart realizes Amy is still inside after spotting her car in the parking lot and decides to return to the mall to look for her. A former classmate and bully from Blart’s childhood known as Kent take control of the police units and orders Blart to let them handle the situation. Maya, unaware of what is going on, shows up at the mall on her way to bring Blart some food, but Simms’ remaining crew capture her and puts her together with the hostage group.
