In Stranger Things Season 4, Episode 6, Eden, Suzie's sister, is modeled after Allison Reynolds from The Breakfast Club. Eden's appearance with stringy dark hair and dark eye makeup reflects Allison's "basket case" look from the iconic John Hughes film. This reference is one of the many ways The Breakfast Club is celebrated throughout the series. Eden's character design and demeanor are direct nods to Allison, making the homage unmistakable and perfect for '80s fans.
