Well, the entire episode was a takeoff of two John Hughes movies, Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller. That line was just one reference to The Breakfast Club among many. The episode even originally ended with the song "Don't You Forget About Me", but it has been changed in the reruns.
Lizzie and her crowd were in detention and were the Lunch Bunch instead of the Breakfast Club.
Matt & Lanny were stranded in the city by the bus when they were on a field trip and Matt was seen by his parents on TV catching a home run ball at a baseball game and riding on a float in a parade when they both should have been back in school. His mother was downtown and even thought she glimpsed Matt and Lanny once, just like Ferris' father glimpsed Ferris and Sloane, but thought he was imagining it.
This show had a lot of movie references. In an episode just before He Said, She Said titled Party Over Here, there was a 14th birthday party at Kate's house when her parents weren't home and a bunch of older kids were invited by Kate's 18 year old cousin (played by Hayley Duff) and they started trashing her house. This was an homage to Risky Business. They even had a scene where the party-goers at Kate's picked up a crystal egg off the mantelpiece and started tossing it around.
There was also a Freaky Friday episodes titled Those Freaky McGuires.
I don't know what they have to say. It makes no difference anyway. Whatever it is, I'm against it.
