Breakfast Club

Bender:
Don't you want to hear my excuse?

Richard Vernon:
Out!

Bender:
I'm thinkin' of tryin' out for a scholarship.

Richard Vernon:
You're not fooling anyone Bender. The next screw that falls out will be you.

Bender:
Eat my shorts.

Richard Vernon:
What was that?

Bender:
Eat... My... Shorts!

Richard Vernon:
You just bought yourself another Saturday.

Bender:
Ooh I'm crushed.

Richard Vernon:
You just bought one more.

Bender:
Well I'm free the Saturday after that. Beyond that, I'm going to have to check my calendar.

Richard Vernon:
Good, cause it's going to be filled. We'll keep going. You want another one? Just say the word say it. Instead of going to prison you'll come here. Are you through?

Bender:
No.

Andrew:
You say one more word and I'm beating the sh*t out of you.

Richard Vernon:
Why is that door closed? WHY IS THAT DOOR CLOSED?

Richard Vernon:
That's the last time, Bender. That the last time you ever make me look bad in front of those kids, you hear me? I make $31,000 a yaer and I have a home and I'm not throwing it all away on some punk like you. But someday when you're outta here and forgotten about this place and they forgotten about you, and you're wrpped up in your own pathetic life, I'm gonna be there. That's right. And I'm gonna kick the living sh*t out of you. I'm gonna knock your balls in the dirt.

Bender:
You threating me?

Richard Vernon:
What are you gonna do about it? You think anyone's gonna believe you? You think anyone gonna take your word over mine? I'm a man of respect around here. They love me. I'm a swell guy. You're a lying sack of monkey sh*t, and everyone knows about it. Oh, you're a tough guy. Hey c'mon. Get on your feet pal! Let's find out how tough you are. I wanna know how tough you are. Let's go. C'mon man, just take the first shot. I'm begging you, take the first shot. Just take one good swing...

Richard Vernon:
Yeah, that's what I thought. You're a gutless turd.

Richard Vernon:
That's the last time, Bender. That the last time you ever make me look bad in front of those kids, you hear me? I make $31,000 a year and I have a home and I'm not throwing it all away on some punk like you. But someday when you're outta here and forgotten about this place and they forgotten about you, and you're wrpped up in your own pathetic life, I'm gonna be there. That's right. And I'm gonna kick the living sh*t out of you. I'm gonna knock your balls in the dirt.

Bender:
You threating me?

Richard Vernon:
What are you gonna do about it? You think anyone's gonna believe you? You think anyone gonna take your word over mine? I'm a man of respect around here. They love me. I'm a swell guy. You're a lying sack of monkey sh*t, and everyone knows about it. Oh, you're a tough guy. Hey c'mon. Get on your feet pal! Let's find out how tough you are. I wanna know how tough you are. Let's go. C'mon man, just take the first shot. I'm begging you, take the first shot. Just take one good swing...

Richard Vernon:
Yeah, that's what I thought. You're a gutless turd.

Andrew:
Speak for yourself.

Bender:
Do you think I'd speak for you? I don't even know your language.

Bender:
Naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm, and a two-foot salami under the other. The bartender says, I guess you won't be needing a drink. Naked lady says...

Bender:
oh sh*t.

Bender:
You know how you said before, how your parents use you to get back at each other? Wouldn't I be outstanding in that capacity?

John Bender:
Screws just fall out all the time, the world is an imperfect place.

Claire:
You know, you look a lot better without all that black sh*t under your eyes.

Allison Reynolds:
Hey, I like all that black sh*t... Why are you being so nice to me?

Claire:
Because you're letting me.

Claire Standish:
You know why guys like you knock everything?

John Bender:
Oh, this should be stunning.

Claire Standish:
It's because you're afraid.

John Bender:
Oh God, you richies are so smart, that's exactly why I'm not heavy into activities.

Claire Standish:
You're a big coward.

Brian Johnson:
I'm in a math club.

Claire Standish:
See, you're afraid that they won't take you, you don't belong, so you have to just dump all over it.

John Bender:
Well, it wouldn't have anything to do with you activities people being a**holes, now would it?

Claire Standish:
Well, you wouldn't know, you don't even know any of us.

John Bender:
Well, I don't know any lepers, but I'm not going to run out and join one of their f***ing clubs.

Andrew Clark:
Hey. Let's watch the mouth, huh?

Brian Johnson:
I'm in the physics club too.

John Bender:
Excuse me a sec. What are you babbling about?

Brian Johnson:
Well, what I had said was I'm in the math club, uh, the latin, and the physics club... physics club.

John Bender:
Hey, Cherry. Do you belong to the physics club?

Claire Standish:
That's an academic club.

John Bender:
So?

Claire Standish:
So academic clubs aren't the same as other kinds of clubs.

John Bender:
Ah... but to dorks like him, they are. What do you guys do in your club?

Brian Johnson:
Well, in physics we... we talk about physics, properties of physics.

John Bender:
So it's sorta social, demented and sad, but social. Right?

Allison Reynolds:
Your middle name is Ralph, as in puke, your birth date's March 12th, you're 5'9 and a half, you weigh 130 pounds and your social security number is 049380913.

Andrew Clark:
Wow. Are you psychic?

Allison Reynolds:
No.

Brian Johnson:
Well, would you mind telling me how you know all this about me?

Allison Reynolds:
I stole your wallet.

Claire Standish:
He's just doing it to get a rise out of you. Just ignore him.

John Bender:
Sweets. You couldn't ignore me if you tried. So... so. Are you guys like boyfriend-girlfriend? Steady dates? Lovers? Come on, sporto, level with me. Do you slip her the hot beef injection?

Claire Standish:
Go to HELL!

Andrew:
Enough!

Richard Vernon:
Hey! What's the hell's goin in there? Spoiled brats.

Andrew Clark:
If I lose my temper you're totaled, man.

John Bender:
Totally?

Andrew Clark:
Totally.

Claire Standish:
I hate it. I hate having to go along with everything my friends say.

John Bender:
Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe?

John Bender:
Don't you ever talk about my friends. You don't know any of my friends. You don't look at any of my friends. And you certainly wouldn't condescend to speak to any of my friends. So you just stick to the things you know: shopping, nail polish, your father's BMW, and your poor, rich drunk mother in the Caribbean.

Claire Standish:
Shut up.

John Bender:
And as far as being concerned about what's gonna happen when you and I walk down the hallways of school together, you can forget it cuz it's never gonna happen. Just bury your head in the sand and wait for your f***ing prom.

Allison Reynolds:
I don't have to runaway and live in the street. I can runaway and I can go to the ocean, I can go to the country, I can go to the mountains. I could go to Israel, Africa, Afghanistan.

Brian Johnson:
I'm a f***ing idiot because I can't make a lamp?

John Bender:
No. You're a genius because you can't make a lamp.

Allison Reynolds:
I'll do anything sexual. I don't need a million dollars to do it either.

Claire Standish:
You're lying.

Allison Reynolds:
I already have. I've done just about everything there is except a few things that are illegal. I'm a nymphomaniac.

Claire Standish:
Lie.

Brian Johnson:
Are your parents aware of this?

Allison Reynolds:
The only person I told was my shrink.

Andrew Clark:
And what did he do when you told him?

Allison Reynolds:
He nailed me.

Claire Standish:
Very nice.

Allison Reynolds:
I don't think that from a legal standpoint what he did can be construed as rape, since I paid him.

Claire Standish:
He's an adult.

Allison Reynolds:
Yeah, he's married too.

Claire Standish:
Do you have any idea how completely gross that is?

Allison Reynolds:
Well, the first few times...

Claire Standish:
The first few times? You mean you did it more than once?

Allison Reynolds:
Sure.

Claire Standish:
Are you crazy?

Brian Johnson:
Obviously she's crazy if she's screwing a shrink.

Allison Reynolds:
Have you ever done it?

Claire Standish:
I don't even have a psychiatrist.

Allison Reynolds:
Have you ever done it with a normal person?

Claire Standish:
Didn't we already cover this?

John Bender:
You never answered the question.

Claire Standish:
Look, I'm not going to discuss my private life with total strangers.

Allison Reynolds:
It's kind of a double edged sword isn't it?

Claire Standish:
A what?

Allison Reynolds:
Well, if you say you haven't, you're a prude. If you say you have you're a slut. It's a trap. You want to but you can't, and when you do you wish you didn't, right?

Claire Standish:
Wrong.

Allison Reynolds:
Or are you a tease?

Andrew Clark:
She's a tease.

Claire Standish:
I'm sure. Why don't you just forget it.

Andrew Clark:
Oh, you're a tease and you know it. All girls are teases.

John Bender:
She's only a tease if what she does gets you hot.

Claire Standish:
I don't do anything.

Allison Reynolds:
That's why you're a tease.

Claire Standish:
OK, let me ask you a few questions.

Allison Reynolds:
I already told you everything.

Claire Standish:
No. Doesn't it bother you to sleep around without being in love. I mean, don't you want any respect?

Allison Reynolds:
I don't screw to get respect. That's the difference between you and me.

Claire Standish:
It's not the only difference I hope.

John Bender:
Face it, you're a tease.

Claire Standish:
I'm NOT a tease.

John Bender:
Sure you are. Sex is your weapon. You said it yourself. You use it to get respect.

Claire Standish:
No, I never said that she twisted my words around.

John Bender:
What do you use it for then?

Claire Standish:
I don't use it period.

John Bender:
Oh, are you medically frigid or is it psychological?

Claire Standish:
I didn't mean it that way. You guys are putting words into my mouth.

John Bender:
Well, if you'd just answer the question.

Brian Johnson:
Why don't you just answer the question?

Andrew Clark:
Be honest.

John Bender:
No big deal.

Brian Johnson:
Yeah answer it.

Andrew Clark:
Answer the question, Claire.

John Bender:
Talk to us. Every one: C'mon, answer the question. Come on. Answer it.

John Bender:
C'mon, it's easy. It's only one question.

Claire Standish:
NO I NEVER DID IT.

Allison Reynolds:
I never did it either. I'm not a nymphomaniac. I'm a compulsive liar.

John Bender:
Being bad feels pretty good, huh?

John:
Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up, we'll all get up, it'll be anarchy.

Brian Johnson:
Chicks cannot hold their smoke, dat's what it is.

John:
I just wanna know how one becomes a janitor because Andrew here is very interested in pursuing a career in the custodial arts.

John Bender:
Well, Brian, this is a very nutritious lunch. All the food groups are represented. Did your mom marry Mr. Rogers?

Brian Johnson:
Uh, no. Mr. Johnson.

Andrew Clark:
You don't have any goals.

John Bender:
Oh but I do.

Andrew Clark:
Yeah?

John Bender:
I wanna be just like you. I figure all I need, is a lobotomy and some tights.

Brian Johnson:
You wear tights?

Andrew Clark:
No I don't wear tights. I wear the required uniform.

Brian Johnson:
Tights.

Andrew Clark:
Shut up.

John Bender:
Sporto.

Andrew Clark:
What?

John Bender:
You get along with your parents?

Andrew Clark:
Well, if I say yes I'm an idiot, right?

John Bender:
You're an idiot anyway. But if you say you get along with your parents, well, you're a liar too.

Richard Vernon:
Don't mess with the bull, young man. You'll get the horns.

Richard Vernon:
What if your home... what if your family... what if your *dope* was on fire?

John Bender:
Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's underwear.

John Bender:
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:
What do you need a fake I.D. for?

Brian:
So I can vote.

Brian Johnson:
Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it is we did wrong, but we think you're crazy for making us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, The Breakfast Club.

John Bender:
Excuse me, Dick. I mean, Rich, will milk be made available to us?

Claire Standish:
I have a really low tolerance for dehydration.

Andrew Clark:
I've seen her dehydrate, sir, it's pretty gross.

Allison Reynolds:
When you grow up, your heart dies.

Richard Vernon:
You think about this: when you get old, these kids - when *I* get old - they're going to be running the country.

Carl:
Yeah.

Richard Vernon:
Now this is the thought that wakes me up in the middle of the night. That when I get older, these kids are going to take care of me.

Carl:
I wouldn't count on it.

Claire Standish:
What's your name?

John Bender:
What's yours?

Claire Standish:
Claire.

John Bender:
Claire?

Claire Standish:
Claire. It's a family name.

John Bender:
Oh, it's a fat girl's name.

Claire Standish:
Oh, thank you.

John Bender:
You're welcome.

Claire Standish:
I'm not fat.

John Bender:
Well not at present, but I can see you really pushing maximum density. See I'm not sure if you know this, but there are two kinds of fat people: there's fat people that were born to be fat, and there's fat people that were once thin but became fat... so when you look at 'em you can sorta see that thin person inside. You see, you're gonna get married, you're gonna squeeze out a few puppies and then, uh...

Andrew Clark:
That's real intelligent.

John Bender:
You're right. It's wrong to destroy literature. It's such fun to read. And

John Bender:
Moe-Lay really pumps my nads.

Claire Standish:
Moliere.

John Bender:
Stupid, worthless, no good, goddamn, freeloading son of a b*tch. Retarded, big mouth, know-it-all, a**hole, jerk. You forgot ugly, lazy and disrespectful. Shut up b*tch. Go fix me a turkey pot pie. No dad, what about you? F*** you. No dad, what about you? F*** you. Dad, what about you? F*** you.

Brian Johnson:
Is that for real?

John Bender:
Wanna come over sometime?

Richard Vernon:
What was that ruckus?

Andrew Clark:
Uh, what ruckus?

Richard Vernon:
I was just in my office and I heard a ruckus.

Brian Johnson:
Could you describe the ruckus, sir?

Andrew:
Yo wastoid, you're not gonna blaze up in here.

Andrew Clark:
Hey, you're not urinating in here, man.

John Bender:
Don't talk. Don't talk. It makes it crawl back up.

John Bender:
YOU ARE A B*TCH.

Claire Standish:
Why? 'Cause I'm telling the truth, that makes me a b*tch?

John Bender:
NO. 'Cause you know how shitty that is to do someone, if you don't got the balls to stand up to who you like.

John Bender:
Hey, homeboy, what do you say we close that door, we'll get the prom queen impregnated.

John Bender:
So... So, are you guys boyfriend/girlfriend? Steady Dates? Lov-ers? Come on, Sporto, level with me. Do you slip her the hot beef injection?

Claire Standish:
GO TO HELL.

Andrew Clark:
ENOUGH.

Richard Vernon:
Hey. What's going on in there?

Richard Vernon:
Spoiled little pricks.

John Bender:
You know what I got for Christmas this year? It was a banner f***in' year at the old Bender family. I got a carton of cigarettes. The old man grabbed me and said "Hey. Smoke up Johnny."

Brian's mom:
Now is this the first time or the last time we do this?

Brian Johnson:
Last.

Brian's mom:
Good. Now use the time to your advantage.

Brian Johnson:
Mom, we're not supposed to study, we just have to sit there and do nothing.

Brian's mom:
Well mister, you better figure out a way to study.

Brian's sister:
Yeah.

John Bender:
I wanna be an airborne ranger, I wanna be put in danger.

John Bender:
That's very clever, sir. But what if there's a fire? I think violating fire codes and endangering the lives of children would be unwise at this juncture in your career, sir.

Principal Richard Vernon:
The next time I have to come in here I'm crackin' skulls.

Claire Standish:
Why didn't you want me to know that you are a virgin?

Brian Johnson:
Because it's my business - my personal business!

John Bender:
Actually, Brian, it doesn't sound like you're doing any business...

Richard Vernon:
What did you wanna be when you grew up?

Carl:
When I was a kid, I wanted to be John Lennon.

Richard Vernon:
Carl, don't be a goof.

Bender:
Claire, you wanna see a picture of a guy with elephantitis of the nuts? It's pretty tasty.

Claire:
No thank you.

Bender:
Oh Claire, would you ever consider dating a guy who looked like this?

Claire:
Can't you just leave me alone?

Bender:
I mean even if he had a nice personality and a cool car... although you'd probably have to ride in the backseat because his nuts would ride shotgun

What was that? What was what Sir? That rukkus? Uh what rukkus? I heard a rukkus? Can you explain the rukkus?
