Andie (Molly Ringwald) is at a bit of a crossroads, just like Elle when she has to figure out if she should go to Harvard to chase Warner and become a lawyer. For Andie, though, she has to decide if she wants to stick with her not-so-popular group of friends, including Duckie (Jon Cryer) who has a crush on her, or if she should try to pursue something with the new object of her affection Blane (Andrew McCarthy). Despite being tight with Duckie for ages, Andie is intrigued by Blane and his shiny newness. Which way will she go — the reliable friend who loves her or the cute new guy?
