Andie lives on the [[Wrong Side of the Tracks]] with her unemployed, divorced father (played by Harry Dean Stanton), who she cares for, almost like a mother. Her best friend Duckie (Jon Cryer) is in love with her, but plays it off as a joke to maintain their friendship. The two of them are harassed by the "richie" kids, Steff (James Spader), and Benny (Kate Vernon). Andie works for her older friend Iona (Annie Potts) at TRAX, a New Wave music store in Chinatown. Iona urges her to go to the prom. One of the [[Brat Pack]] movies. Written (but not directed) by [[John Hughes]].

* [[Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends]]: One of the more [[Egregious]] examples.
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Ducky, to Andie.
* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Two -- a guy named "Steff" (usually a diminutive for "Stephanie") and a girl named "Benny".
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: When Blaine cancels his prom date with Andie, saying that he already asked someone else and forgot about it, she calls him a "filthy, fucking, no-good liar". This is the only time the word is used in the film.
