In the Lego universe, the wizard Vitruvius attempts to protect a super-weapon called the "Kragle" from the evil Lord Business. He fails to do so, but prophesies that a person called "the Special" will find the Piece of Resistance capable of stopping the Kragle.

Bad cop
Eight and a half years later, a construction worker named Emmet Brickowski sees a woman named Wyldstyle searching for something after hours at Emmet's construction site. When he investigates, Emmet falls into a hole and finds the Piece of Resistance. Compelled to touch it, Emmet experiences vivid visions and passes out. Awakening elsewhere with the Piece of Resistance attached to his back, he is interrogated by Business' lieutenant, Bad Cop. Wyldstyle rescues Emmet, believing him to be the Special, and takes him to meet Vitruvius. Meanwhile, Business explains to Bad Cop that he sees the Lego world as chaotic, and plans to bring peace and perfection using the Kragle. At Vitruvius' hideout, Emmet learns Wyldstyle is one of the Master Builders—people capable of building anything they need without instruction manuals—who oppose Business' attempts to suppress their creativity. Though disappointed to find Emmet is not a Master Builder, Wyldstyle and Vitruvius are convinced of his potential when he recalls visions of a humanoid deity called "the Man Upstairs."

Rescue Reinforcements
Emmet, Wyldstyle, and Vitruvius evade Bad Cop's forces with the aid of Batman. They attend a council of Master Builders, who are unimpressed with Emmet and refuse to fight Business. Bad Cop's forces attack and capture everyone except for Emmet and a few others, and take their prisoners to the Think Tank, where Business has enslaved the Master Builders to think up plans for him. Emmet devises a team plan to infiltrate Business' headquarters and disarm the Kragle. However, he and his allies are captured and imprisoned, and Vitruvius is beheaded by Lord Business, who sets his headquarters to shock the Think Tank and leaves to attack Emmet's city. Vitruvius reveals he made up the prophecy as he dies, but soon reappears to Emmet as a ghost and tells him it is his self-belief that makes him the Special. Strapped to the self-destruct mechanism's battery, Emmet flings himself off the edge of the tower, falling into a vortex and saving the Master Builders. Business begins his attack and, inspired by Emmet's sacrifice, Wyldstyle rallies the people to use whatever creativity they have to build machines and weapons to fight Business' forces.
Bad Cop's Pursuit

Trash Chomper
Emmet finds himself in the real world, where the events of the story are being played out in a basement by a boy named Finn on his father's Lego set. The father—revealed as "the Man Upstairs"—chastises his son for ruining the collection by creating hodgepodges of different playsets. Emmet witnesses Finn's father begin to put the sets back in proper order and glue them together, represented in the Lego world as Business's forces doing the same. Realizing the danger his friends are in, Emmet wills himself to move and gains Finn's attention. Finn returns Emmet and the Piece of Resistance to the set, where Emmet now possesses the powers of a Master Builder and uses his new abilities to enter Business' fortress. Meanwhile, Finn's father looks at his son's creations and realizes that Finn had based the villainous Business on him. Through a speech Emmet gives Business, Finn tells his father that he is special and has the power to change everything. Finn's father reconciles with his son, which plays out as Business having a change of heart, capping the Kragle with the Piece of Resistance, and ungluing his victims with mineral spirits. The Lego inhabitants rejoice in their victory as Finn and his father play together, when Finn's father tells him his sister can play as well. The celebration ends as aliens from the planet Duplo invade the city and announce their plans to destroy
everyone.
