[[WMG: Bender grows up to become [[Film/TheDarkKnightSaga The Joker]]]]
Both seem to enjoy pushing people over the edge. Both are outsiders. Both carry a hatred for authority figures. Bender's father beats him, and one of the Joker's stories for his scars involve an alcoholic father. The Breakfast Club is set in Sherman Illinois, which is not too far from Chicago, which is what the The Dark Knight Saga's Gotham is supposedly based on. Perhaps after graduation, Bender suffers some sort of traumatic accident that leaves him scarred physically and drives him to insanity.

[[WMG: The ending of the movie is about the teenagers gaining the strength to call out their parents for their mistreatment of them.]]

Firstly, we know that Bender already calls out his parents, and that since by the end of the movie he doesn't seem so isolated anymore what with having friends who actually understand him, this should further embolden him. Let's go through each of the teenagers.

Claire: This actually gets spelt out by Bender near the end of the movie when he and Claire are in the closet together, when he asks her "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?" Cut to the very last scene, and Bender and Claire passionately kiss each other right in front of Claire's dad's car before she leaves. It seems that Bender may well have ended up helping Claire achieve exactly that.

Allison: This is actually the next easiest character to figure out. Her complaint is about how her parents ignore her. By the end of the movie, she's had a makeover, and ends up kissing a popular school sports star before she leaves, which is almost certainly going to be near impossible for her parents to ignore.

Brian: Has contemplated suicide due to bad grades, and at the beginning of the movie we're shown that his parents seem to display no sympathy for his plight and continue to pressure him to study. By the end of the movie, he has the balls to pen a letter on behalf of the group to the school principal calling him out on his condescension towards the teenagers in detention. This should set him up nicely for calling out his parents for their pressure and uncaring attitude towards his suicidal feelings.

Andy: Hates having become the Jerk Jock because of his father's expectations of him. Opening himself up to the others gives him more confidence as does kissing Allison at the end, and when he gets in his dad's car, his face clearly demonstrates he's not going to take his dad's crap anymore.

That leaves on Andy and John. Neither of them outright say, but considering that Andy is a popular boy jock and Bender is a criminal bad-ass, it isn't unlikely

Or possibly half sister. We never see Cameron or Allison's family, and Cameron's dad doesn't seem like the most loyal man, so he could've knocked another woman up, or Cameron's mom had her with another man. Both are weird and don't seem to be the most popular in school. Their home lives are both unsatisfactory, and the way Ferris describes Cameron's house (Like a museum, you can't touch anything and it's cold) was a deleted line from TheBreakfastClub describing Allison's house.

The characters exist in the DCComics universe. They have died, and the entire movie is them gradually passing over and coming to terms with their own deaths. Alternatively, they were all alive and actually in detention, up until the janitor arrived, went nuts and killed the kids (he obviously hates them). Allison is in fact Death of the Endless, acting in her role as a psychopomp.

* It could work if they were forced to surrender their phones to the Principal (Like in the {{Victorious}} parody) or the school's computers were shut down for the weekend. Some schools don't allow kids to bring their tablets or laptops to detention either.

The fact is, Both characters are played by Molly Ringwald and both films are set in the same universe, according to the late John Hughes. So think about it, after the end of Sixteen Candles, Jake Ryan probably said to himself, "Why would I bother to date Samantha knowing I will be graduating in a few months and most likely will be attending college when she still has two years of high school?" Soon after, Jake abruptly broke up with Samantha and got back together with Caroline. Samantha, devastated and enraged, didn't want to be reminded of Jake or the breakup anymore and ran away from home and, along the way, met Mr. and Mrs. Standish, who surprisingly decided to take the distraught young lady in and accepted her as their daughter. After being welcomed into the Standish family, Samantha chose to block out all memories of her real family and Jake Ryan and took on the persona of prissy rich girl, Claire Standish, got enrolled at Shermer High School in Shermer, Illinois, started to skip classes in favor of going shopping, got put in detention on a Saturday with four other students and the rest is history.
