One morning in 1985, five high school students were forced to give up their Saturday to sit in detention, where they learned about themselves and became friends. Unfortunately, this was the last day of the world, as WorldWarIII caused TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, leaving the five kids and the janitor as probably the last people on earth.
''The Last Breakfast Club'' is a JukeboxMusical sequel to ''Film/TheBreakfastClub''. Allison, Andrew, Bender, Brian, and Claire have been stuck in the library at their high school for years, as the stress of prolonged lockdown and the awareness that everyone they've ever known is probably dead weighs on them. When visitors from the future let them know they must leave the library in order to restart civilization, the central teens, the school Janitor, and their zombified Principal must face truths about themselves and discover how to create a new, better world.
Years of lockdown have fundamentally altered the characters. Claire, Bender, and Andrew have forgotten their development from the movie, as she returned to her AlphaBitch ways, while Bender and Andrew spend their days tormenting each other and [[BelligerentSexualTension fighting a growing attraction.]] Allison has become [[SoapboxSadie more politically engaged,]] while Brian remains TheHeart of the group.
The Janitor has gone from the VoiceOfReason to TheFundamentalist, believing that the apocalypse is God punishing the world for its sinfulness. Vice Principal Vernon, in an effort to save the students, has turned into a FriendlyZombie.
Old relationships end and new ones are formed, the characters learn about themselves, and they all must face what their lives would look like outside the library.

!!Don't you forget about these tropes:
* AbusiveParents: Bender recalls the physical and emotional abuse from his parents. Both Vernon and Andrew try to combat the lasting trauma the abuse has left on him.
