The Breakfast Club Page #6

We see Allison drawing.

We see Andrew playing paper football. He cheers

silently.

Allison shakes dandruff from her hair onto her picture.

We see everyone fall asleep.

CUT TO:

13. INT. LIBRARY - DAY

Later.

Vernon is standing there staring at the sleeping kids.

VERNON:

Wake up! Who has to go to the

lavatory?

Everyone raises their hands.

CUT TO:

14. INT. LIBRARY - DAY

Later.

We see the clock, it now says 10:22.

We see Andrew stretching. We see Bender tearing pages

out of a book. He is tossing them around.

ANDREW:

That's real intelligent.

BENDER:

You're right...it's wrong to

destroy literature...

He continues to tear pages out.

BENDER:

It's such fun to read...and, Molet

really pumps my nads!

CLAIRE:

(pronouncing it correctly)

Mol-yare.

BRIAN:

I love his work.

Bender tosses the rest of the pages at Brian. He picks

up the card catalogue drawer and begins to take cards

out.

BENDER:

Big deal...nothing to do when you're

locked in a vacancy..

ANDREW:

Speak for yourself...

BENDER:

Do you think I'd speak for you? I

don't even know your language!

Andrew turns to Claire.

ANDREW:

Hey, you grounded tonight?

Claire shrugs.

CLAIRE:

I don't know, my mom said I was but

by dad told me to just blow her off.

ANDREW:

Big party at Stubbies, parents are

in Europe. Should be pretty wild...

CLAIRE:

Yeah?

ANDREW:

Yeah, can you go?

CLAIRE:

I doubt it...

ANDREW:

How come?

CLAIRE:

Well 'cause if I do what my mother

tells me not to do, it's because

because my father says it's okay.

There's like this whole big monster

deal, it's endless and it's a total

drag. It's like any minute...

divorce...

BENDER:

Who do you like better?

CLAIRE:

What?

BENDER:

You like your old man better than

your mom?

CLAIRE:

They're both strict.

BENDER:

No, I mean, if you had to choose

between them.

CLAIRE:

I dunno, I'd probably go live with

my brother. I mean, I don't think

either one of them gives a sh*t

about me...it's like they use me

just to get back at each other.

Suddenly, from the back of the room. Allison speaks.

ALLISON:

(loudly)

Ha!!!

Everyone looks at her shocked. Allison blows her hair

out of her eyes and grins.

CLAIRE:

Shut up!

ANDREW:

You're just feeling sorry for

yourself...

CLAIRE:

Yeah, well if I didn't nobody else

would.

ANDREW:

Aw...you're breaking my heart...

BENDER:

Sporto...

ANDREW:

What?

Bender jumps down and goes next to Andrew.

BENDER:

You get along with your parents?

ANDREW:

Well if I say yes, I'm an idiot,

right?

BENDER:

You're an idiot anyway...But if you

say you get along with your parents

well you're a liar too!

Bender turns and walks away from him. Andrew follows

and pushes Bender.

ANDREW:

You know something, man...If we

weren't in school right now, I'd

waste you!

Bender points his middle finger at the floor.

BENDER:

Can you hear this? Want me to turn

it up?

Bender flips his hand around so he is now giving Andrew

the bird.

Brian comes over and puts a hand on each of the guy's

shoulders.

BRIAN:

Hey fellas, I mean...

Andrew pushes away from Brian.

BRIAN:

...I don't like my parents either,

I don't...I don't get along with

them...their idea of parental

compassion is just, you know, wacko!

Bender turns to Brian.

BENDER:

Dork...

BRIAN:

Yeah?

BENDER:

You are a parent's wet dream, okay?

Bender starts to walk away.

BRIAN:

Well that's a problem!

BENDER:

Look, I can see you getting all

bunged up for them making you wear

these kinda clothes. But face it,

you're a Neo-Maxi-Zoom-Dweebie!

What would you be doing if you

weren't out making yourself a better

citizen?

ANDREW:

Why do you have to insult everybody?

BENDER:

I'm being honest, a**hole! I would

expect you...to know the difference!

ANDREW:

Yeah well, he's gotta name!

BENDER:

Yeah?

ANDREW:

Yeah,

(to Brian)

What's your name?

BRIAN:

Brian...

ANDREW:

See...

BENDER:

(to Brian)

My condolences...

Bender walks away.

CLAIRE:

(to Bender)

What's your name?
