Jeanie spends most of the movie resentful of Ferris's popularity and his seeming ability to get away with anything. She gets her revenge inadvertently, when her mother has to pick her up at the police station. On the way home Mrs. Bueller tells Jeanie that because of her she lost a business deal with "the Vermont People", and that she would've used her commission to buy Ferris a car - a thing he bitterly gripes about not having. This revelation is easy to miss because it unfolds piecemeal, intercut with Ferris's suspenseful dash to beat them home on foot. When the characters run into each other a moment later, a now-empowered Jeanie chooses to cover Ferris's getaway and not rat him out. Ferris never learns how close he came to getting his car, and in the end is blissfully unaware of what his day off cost him.
