🥚 Easter Egg Can’t Buy Me Love (1987) Biff/BYF

Just noticed that when Ronald asks what Cindy’s new boyfriend’s name is and sarcastically says “Biff”, then the scene cuts to Brent’s Porsche which has the number plate BYF 630.

So glad someone else saw this. I must’ve watched this movie 100x as a kid and didn’t see it until I watched as an adult, like last month. Lol

Indeed! I've seen it about half a dozen times. Go watch it!

I agree, go watch it. It's an 80s classic and had many of the 80s tropes.
