A scene from The Breakfast Club 1985
Brian

Do you always carry this much shit in your bag?

Allison

Yeah, I always carry this much shit in my bag. You never know when you may have to jam.

Brian

Are you gonna be like a shopping bag lady? You know like, sit in alleyways and like talk to buildings and wear men's shoes and that kinda thing?

Allison

I'll do what I have to do.

Brian

Why do you have to do anything?

Allison

My home life is un-satisfying...

Brian

So you're saying you'd subject yourself to the violent dangers of the Chicago streets because your home life is unsatisfying?

Allison

I don't have to run away and live in the street; I can run away and, go to the ocean, I can go to the country, I can go to the mountains. I can go to Israel, Africa, Afghanistan...

Brian

Andy...you wanna get in on this? Allison here says, she wants to run away, because her home life is unsatisfying.

Andrew

Well everyone's home lives are unsatisfying. If it wasn't, people would live with there parents forever.

Brian

Yeah, yeah I understand. But I think that hers goes beyond, you know, what guys like you and me consider normal unsatisfying.

Allison

Never mind, forget it, everything's cool.

Andrew

What's the deal?

Allison

No! There's no deal, Sporto. Forget it, leave me alone.

Andrew

Wait a minute, now you're carrying all that crap around in your purse. Either you really wanna run away or you want people to think you wanna run away.

Allison

Eat shit!

Brian

The girl is an island, with herself.
