WHY THE HELL IS IT CALLED THE BREAKFAST CLUB?
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BREAKFAST! • They meet in the morning, so the student body as a whole has named it breakfast detention or the breakfast club or somesuch. • Hughes asked a friend’s son what their nickname was for detention. Since it was held on Saturday morning, they called it… well, you know. • In the scene where they’re running around the school and they keep coming across Vernon, how the hell does he not hear five people running? Or the music? Or the glass breaking? • No real explanation for him not hearing the running, but after locking Bender in the storeroom he goes down into the basement and ends up drinking with Carl while hes down there. Presumably he didn’t smell the pot or hear all the noises because he was still in the basement. • On a more trivial note, what the fuck did Allison put on her sandwich? • Sugar/pixie sticks and Captain Crunch cereal. • Yummy! • I always thought that she also dribbled a bit of her soda on it from the straw, to make it less crunchy. •
