Near the end of the movie, when Gretchen is conversing with some other Oriental girls, does anyone know what she is saying? Is Cady taking two math classes? She is in the same classroom twice. Once with Damian and Janice, the next in 8th period with Aaron Samuels. [The first time she goes in with Damian and Janice is their homeroom and when she is with Aaron it is the actual class.] Answered by Movieman123 When the Plastics and Aaron are walking through the hall, I can't tell if Cady really does fall into the trashcan, or if it's in her imagination. Is this answered anywhere? [We can assume that it really did happen, because in the scenes of her imagination, it then jumps back to show what really happened, and in this case it doesn't.] Answered by Christina What is the name of the song they put on the radio in Regina's bedroom when they ask Cady who sings the song? ["Overdrive," by Katy Rose and Kim Bullard.] Answered by Hamster Does it ever specify whether it is the first day of school for everybody or just for Cady? [It doesn't specify, but it seems as if she is the only one who doesn't know where to sit or which class to go to and no books are passed out or any other first day activities seem to go on, so I would say that it is just Cady and everyone else has already been in school for a while.] Answered by Myridon When Janis is explaining the Cliques to Cady, she mentions the "Preps". Aren't the Plastics preps? [Not necessarily. "Preps" usually consist of a huge group of both boys and girls (at least in my high school expierence!). The plastics were just three really mean girls that thought they were above all other cliques.] When the four girls are at the mall and they see Jason with the girl by the fountain, Regina asks for Gretchen's phone and calls the mother of the girl with Jason. How on earth could Regina have known the phone number? [As soon as Regina gets the phone, she dials 411 and they connect her to the girl's mother. It is right before Regina talks to the mother that this is blatantly stated.] What are "Burnouts" [A burnout is a pot-head smoker who is so "burnt out" (because of smoking way too much marajuana) that they never get anything done....no school, work, etc.] Answered by shortdanzr This may be ignorant but what exactly does half-a-virgin mean? [Many girls will consider themselves half virgins if they have performed/recieved oral sex but not traditional sex. Or that they had penetration but not orgasm. Some girls also consider themselves half-virgins if it has been an extremely LONG time since they have had sex (meaning that they might as well be virgins again).] Answered by shortdanzr What are ROTC guys? [ROTC is the Reserve Officers Training Corps. It's a program for people who would like to join the military when they get out of school. They wear uniforms and do military training exercises after school. In high school, they are often (but not always) people who are not going to college and think they are tough.] Answered by Myridon When Cady gives the kalteen bars to Regina, she says that there's an ingredient that is not legal in the US yet. Right after she says that, Regina suggests some ingredients. Does anyone actually know what the ingredients are, or are they just made up? [I'm pretty sure those bars were made up just for the film.] What is the scary film that Damian and Janis are watching at Halloween? [Friday the 13th Part 2.] Answered by Myridon The theme at the end of the movie sounds so familiar, but I cant seem to remember where its from. Can anyone refresh me? [The song is "dancing with myself" by Billy Idol. For the movie, the girl band The Donnas are singing it.] Why does the principal (Mr. Duvall I believe) have a cast on his right hand? I don't recall seeing him fracture or injure it. Was there something I might have missed? [He has carpal tunnel syndrome. He mentions it when he's talking to Tina Fey after she gets coffee spilled on her and she talks about how she got a divorce.]You may also like: Juno | Titanic | I Am Legend | Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets | Friends
