The directors of this thread would just like to apologize for this post, and let you all know that those responsible have been sacked. To continue.

> [@Marlitharn](#): > > Those who are happy that Andie ended up with Blane, and those who think she should have gone with Ducky. Well, maybe there are 3 types of people in this world–those who are happy that Andie ended up with Blaine, those who think she should have gone with Ducky, and those who have no idea who Andie, Blane, or Ducky are. So…for those of us in the 3rd category–who are Andie, Blane, and Ducky? And why do Andie and Blaine have soap opera names, while Ducky sounds like someone in a bit part in an After School Special? ---

I was wondering the same thing, so I Googled it. Heaven help us all, _Pretty in Pink_. Ducky is Andie’s best friend. Andie is quirky, unpopular girl with aspirations to become a designer. Blane is the most popular boy in school, on whom she has a major crush. I still don’t know how it turned out, as Molly Ringwald gives me hives. ---
