Well, here's the basic rundown of the film:

Shortly after Simba dethrones Scar, he banishes the lionesses still loyal to him to the outlands. He and Nala have Kiara, the cub seen at the end of TLK 1. As a cub, she meets Kovu, an outsider cub who was chosen and raised by Scar before his death to be Scar's successor. The two try to become friends, but their parents quickly get in between that.

Kiara grows up learning to hunt/be a princess/ect. Kovu grows up under Zira's training and his entire being is centered around killing Simba. During Kiara's first hunt, the Outsiders set the pride lands on fire and then have Kovu save Kiara whilst she is in the midst of it. Because he saved her, the Kingdom owes him a debt and he demands entry to the pride. The next morning, Kovu wakes up and stalks the King. He hides, planning to kill Simba while unseen, but before he can attack Kiara interrupts him.

From then on, Kovu's redemptions arc begins.
