"Marge on the Lam"
|
Marge and Ruth Powers become friends and eventually drive off in a car to escape from the law. The scene where Marge is intimidated by a group of men who tell her that they "always get what they want" is a direct parody, as is the scene where Marge has the opportunity to leave Ruth behind, but decides not to do so, because good friends stick together. The final scene where they head for a cliff is also lifted from the movie.
