After that policeman named Javert is released him , Jean Valjean meets the Bishop of Digne, who offers him food and shelter. Valjean steals silver from the bishop and the police catch him shortly.

The next scene occurs in an inn at Montfermeil run by the Thénardiers, where Cosette has been living. The Thénardiers have been abusing the little girl, while indulging their own daughter, Éponine. Cosette dreams of a better life ("Castle on a Cloud") before Madame Thénardier sends her to fetch water in the dark. As the inn fills for the evening, the Thénardiers use numerous methods to cheat their customers ("Master of the House"). Valjean finds Cosette fetching water ("The Bargain") and pays the Thénardiers fifteen hundred Francs to let him take Cosette away ("The Waltz of Treachery").

After Nine years, Paris is in upheaval because General Lamarque, the only man in the government who shows mercy to the poor, is ill and may soon die. The young street urchin Gavroche mingles with the prostitutes and beggars on the street, while students Marius Pontmercy and Enjolras discuss the likely demise of the general, Éponine sees Marius, whom she secretly loves, and warns him to stay away, but Marius accidentally bumps into Cosette and immediately falls in love. The Thénardiers' attempt to rob Valjean and Cosette fails, as the result of Javert, who does not recognise Valjean until after he makes his escape.

             The scene shifts to a political meeting in a small café where a group of idealistic students led by Enjolras gathers to prepare for a revolution that they believe will materialize after General Lamarque's death. Marius arrives late and when Gavroche brings the news of the General's death, the students march out into the streets.While  Cosette is infatuated with Marius, and although Valjean realises that his daughter has grown up, he refuses to tell her about his past or her mother. Valjean, convinced that Javert was lurking outside his house,  he tells Cosette that they must prepare to flee the country. Valjean prepares to go into exile;While  Cosette and Marius  were in despair of ever meeting again; Éponine mourns the loss of Marius;  On the other hand Marius decides to join the other students as they prepare for the upcoming conflict. Javert plans to spy the students and learn their secrets; and the Thénardiers look forward to stealing from the corpses of those who will be killed during the battle to come.

Cosette is infatuated with Marius, and although Valjean realises that his daughter has grown up, he refuses to tell her about his past or her mother. ("Rue Plumet – In My Life"). In spite of her own feelings, Éponine leads Marius to Cosette ("A Heart Full of Love"), and then prevents her father's gang from robbing Valjean's house ("The Attack on Rue Plumet"). Valjean, convinced that Javert was lurking outside his house, tells Cosette that they must prepare to flee the country

 As the students begin a barricade , Javert, disguised as one of the rebels, volunteers to "spy" on the government troops. Marius notices that Éponine has disguised herself as a boy and has joined the revolutionaries. He sends her with a letter to deliver to Cosette, which will also serve to get Éponine to safety. Valjean intercepts the letter, promising Éponine he will tell Cosette about the letter. After Éponine leaves, Valjean reads the letter, learning about Marius and Cosette's relationship. While walking the streets of Paris, Éponine decides and  despite  of what he has said to her, she rejoin Marius at the barricade. "At the Barricade" the students defy an army warning them to surrender or die. Javert returns and tells the students that the government will attack ("Javert's Arrival"), but Gavroche exposes him as a spy ("Little People"). Éponine is shot as she returns to the barricades and dies in Marius's arms ("A Little Fall of Rain").
Valjean arrives at the barricades in search of Marius as the first battle erupts, and he saves Enjolras by shooting a sniper As a reward, he  settle down for a night ("Drink with Me"), while Valjean prays to God to save Marius from the onslaught that is to come. The war begin, Enjolras realises that the people have abandoned them. He sends away women and fathers of children, but resolves to continue to fight .With ammunition running low during the second attack, Gavroche moves in front of the barricade to collect more cartridges. As he collects bullets and runs back behind the barricade, he is shot three times. He dies as he returns behind the barricade.Enjolras and the students realize that they will likely die. The army gives a final warning for surrender, but the rebels refuse, and as they continue to fight, they all are killed except Valjean and Marius.

            Carrying a wounded Marius on his back, Valjean escapes through the sewers. Meanwhile, Thénardier is also in the sewers, stealing valuables from bodies, laughing that he is performing a "service to the town. Thénardier takes a ring off Marius's hand as Valjean is resting, and then escapes when he sees Valjean getting up. When Valjean reaches the sewer's issue, he runs into Javert, who has been waiting for him. Valjean begs Javert to give him one more hour to bring Marius to a doctor, and Javert reluctantly agrees. After Valjean leaves, Javert, unable to bear the gift of Valjean's mercy to him, commits suicide by throwing himself in the Seine.

            Back on the streets, several women mourn the deaths of the young students .Marius also mourns for his friends.As he wonders who saved him from the barricades, Cosette comforts him, and she tells him that she will never go away and they reaffirm their love. Valjean then confesses to Marius that he is an escaped convict and tells him that he must go away because his presence puts Cosette in danger .Valjean makes Marius promise never to tell Cosette, and Marius makes only a half-hearted attempt to hold him back.

            Marius and Cosette are married. The Thénardiers crash the wedding reception in disguise as "The Baron and Baroness du Thénard" and tell Marius that Valjean is a murderer, saying that they saw him carrying a corpse in the sewers after the barricades fell. When Thénardier shows him the ring that he took from the corpse, Marius realises that he was the "corpse" and that Valjean saved his life. Marius punches Thénardier, the newlyweds leave, and the Thénardiers enjoy the party and celebrate their survival.Meanwhile, Valjean prepares for his death, having nothing left for which to live. Just as the ghosts of Fantine and Éponine arrive to take him to heaven, Cosette and Marius rush in, in time to bid farewell to Valjean and for Marius to thank him for saving his life.
