Commandant Lassard and (most of) his favorite Academy graduates head down to a police convention in Miami Beach, where Lassard is set to be honored as the Police Officer of the Decade. But, after a mix-up at the airport, Lassard gets kidnapped by some jewel thieves. Can our favorite cops rescue Lassard and stop the crooks or will Proctor and Captain Harris just mess things up again? The gags are bigger and more cartoonish in
Police Academy 5 but the change in scenery keeps things from getting too stale. Tab Thacker returns as Officer House from
Citizens on Patrol and, in this installment, we're introduced to Commandant Lassard's nephew, Sergeant Nick Lassard. Nick is played by Matt McCoy, who does a good job, but, let's be honest, he's no Steve Guttenberg.

Fun Fact: The jewel thieves include René Auberjonois from
Deep Space Nine, Archie Hahn from
Meatballs Part II (and several
Joe Dante movies) and Ruben Rabasa from the focus group sketch in
I Think You Should Leave.
