For those wishing to have seen a sequel to "Ferris Bueller's
Day off" - let me fill you in:
Cameron, Ferris' best friend, gets beaten half to death by
his dad for destroying a beloved, irreplaceable classic car. Ferris ducks out,
denying any involvement in the offense. He was "sick at home" the
entire time.
Cameron's dad is in prison, not only for his crimes of abuse,
but insurance fraud due to suspicious circumstances surrounding destruction of
a costly collector vehicle. He loses his home to foreclosure because of legal
expenses, home repairs and lack of income (due to being incarcerated). Cameron
is forced to move in with his mom in her small apartment. Cameron is not only
dealing with injuries sustained by abuse, but a drawn-out legal battle against
Abe Frohman (The Sausage King of Chicago) due to a foolish prank at a high
class restaurant that cost him a lucrative deal with a client that he was
supposed to meet that day. Ferris would have opened up about his involvement in
the prank, but Cameron didn’t want to drag his friend into it. “No use two
people taking the heat for it.”
Jeanie follows the influence of her newfound crush, starts
doing drugs and drops out of school. Her boyfriend lands in prison and she
visits him as often as she can. She turns to petty crime and drug dealing to
survive because her parents have kicked her out.
The principal Edward R. Rooney is doing prison time for
abuse against children, breaking and entering and a plethora of other crimes
and civil infractions. His secretary (Grace) opens up and tells everything in
exchange for clemency - to avoid jail time for being a willing accessory.
Grace, the secretary steps up to become the principal,
harassing juvenile delinquents like Ferris, but learning from and not making
past mistakes of her predecessor.
Ferris marries Sloane, right out of high school. He works as
a con-man, swindling and making shady deals - making millions. It is rumored
that he took the thousands of dollars collected on his behalf (for him to get a
new kidney) and used it as “seed money” to start a Ponzi scheme, but nobody can
prove any wrongdoing or that any money was ever collected and subsequently
disbursed. He spends a lot of time traveling for work, with different women in
every city. Each one of them believes she is his only... special one. He and
Sloane move around a lot to escape disgruntled clients - and the law. Sloane
believes it's because he is taking a promotion ever time. Ferris' parents are
proud of their successful son, but wonder where they went wrong with their
wayward daughter.
The girl on the bus with the gummy bears graduated
valedictorian, got a full ride scholarship to an Ivy League university, and is
working on a graduate degree in organic chemistry. Rumor has it, she had
something to do with taking down an abusive and corrupt faculty member.
The two valets still work at the same place, taking good
care of the cars they are entrusted with... occasionally taking joyrides in
exquisite sports cars.
The economics teacher is still teaching and still as boring
as ever.
