Continuing her sabotage, Cady tricks Regina into eating weight-gain bars, under the guise of weight loss bars. When Cady tells Aaron that Regina was unfaithful to him, he and Regina break up again. Norbury encourages her to join the Mathletes, Cady pretends not to understand math so that she can ask Aaron to tutor her, and he agrees. Cady's interest in him prompts Regina to rekindle their relationship directly in front of Cady at a Halloween party, causing Cady to run off to Janis and Damian and jumpstart their plan. Janis, who considers Regina her sworn mortal enemy, devises a plan for Cady to infiltrate The Plastics and exact revenge.Ĭady develops a crush on a fellow math student, Aaron Samuels, but Gretchen explains to her that he is Regina's ex and thus completely off-limits. They invite her to have lunch with them under a long list of conditions: no wearing a ponytail more than once a week, only wearing pink on Wednesdays, etc. Regina and her sidekicks Karen Smith and Gretchen Weiners, known as The Plastics, admire Cady for her innocence and good looks. After a fellow student named Jason tries using innuendo to flirt with Cady, Regina George (the most popular girl in school) embarrasses him into retreating.

With the burn book, United We Dream is also asking people to sign a petition that calls on Congress to cut funding to CBP and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, to pass legislation that protects immigrants, and to hold the immigration agencies that hurt our communities accountable. In a few pages, the book criticizes Stephen Miller’s role in Trump’s administration, the president’s insistence on the border wall, and Customs and Border Protection for putting children in cages – all white sprinkling in many of the quotes we know and love from Mean Girls. “Through this effort, we are continuing to demand Congress reject Trump’s demands for funding the wall and their deportation force.” “Like in Mean Girls, we are asking people to raise their hand if they’ve been personally victimized by the hate from this administration and their deportation force,” according to a press release from the organization. But just this week, United We Dream has decided to turn the snarky burn book into a tool to call out hate.Īs the partial government shutdown continues, UWD released a burn book to demand that Congress not give into President Donald Trump’s threats and refuse to fund the border wall.
