Fruitcake, you got it on backwards.
- What car did you swipe it from? - Your mother's.
Can you believe it? Nationwide television!
- How you doing? - Still gonna go to the dance?
Man, I'm gonna have the hottest date there.
Biggest thing to happen to Rydell and we don't have dates.
- Maybe Rudi from the Capri Lounge? - Get serious.
- It's a suggestion. - I already called him.
Relax. I think our Iuck is changing.
Do you know what you're doing?
What we're doing. Come on.
Marty. Lookin' good.
Would you just excuse me one second?
Feelin' good, too, huh?
Sonny. There he is. Vince Fontaine.
I seen better heads on a mug of beer.
- Grow up. He's the Iiving end. - Yeah, if you Iike older guys.
Danny, this is so exciting.
You gotta make friends with the cameraman.
- You know him? - His name's Ted.
Doody, how do I Iook?
Like a beautiful blonde pineapple.
You're Iate, fellas. Where you been?
- The gym never Iooked so good. - You bring the provisions?
AIright, kids. I want a big circle.
Come on, boys and girls, we are going on the air very shortly.
But first, some warm-up numbers with Johnny Casino and the Gamblers.
Oh, baby, rock'n'roll is here to stay, it will never die
It was meant to be that way, though I don't know why
I don't care what people say Rock'n'roll is here to stay
We don't care what people say Rock'n'roll is here to stay
Everybody rock, everybody rock
Come on
Everybody rock
If you don't like rock'n'roll, think what you'd be missin'
If you like to bop and stroll, come on down and listen
Let's all start to have a ball
Everybody rock'n'roll
- What are their names? - Fred and Ginger.
Fred and Ginger.
- I hope I don't get camera fright. - Don't worry, we'II be cool.
- Yeah? - Don't worry?
Good. Come on, Iet's go.
What's that playing on the radio?
Why do I start swaying to and fro?
I have never heard that song before
But if I don't hear it any more...
Why not Iet me Iead for a change?
I can't help it. I'm used to Ieadin'.
OK.
Doody, can't you turn me around or something?
Don't talk, Frenchy. I'm trying to count.
A melody
That's never the same
A melody that's calling your name...
Have you thought of singing professionally?
Come back to me
- Please... - Hey, Zuko!
I want you to meet Cha Cha DiGregorio.
- How you doing, baby? - Fine.
Who is she?
They call me Cha Cha, cos I'm the best dancer at St Bernadette's.
With the worst reputation.
Let's go, Sandy.
- Who's that girl? - Just a girl I know, that's all.
Hi.
I'm Vince Fontaine.
Do your folks know I come into your room every night?
Over KZAZ, that is.
I'm judging the dance contest.
I don't think I'm entered.
A knockout Iike you? What's your name?
- Marty. - Marty what?
Maraschino. You know, Iike in cherry.
- What are you doing? - Washing my hands.
You don't remember me
But I remember you
It was not so long ago
You broke my heart in two
Tears on my pillow
Pain in my heart
Caused by you...
How do you know her?
She's an old friend of the family, that's all.
Love is not a toy
When you find the one you love...
- Aren't you glad to be back? - Yeah.
Besides, blondes do have more fun.
If we could start anew
I wouldn't hesitate...
When I hear music, I can't make my feet behave.
- Thinks she's Tinker Bell. - Hush, Sonny.
Pain in my heart
Caused by you
The Rydell fight song!
When you are finished...
You will be happy to know that I am not judging the dance contest.
I think we all owe a round of applause
to Patty Simcox and Eugene Felznik and committee
for their beautiful decorations.
Let's hear it for the toilet paper.
In a few moments, the entire nation will be watching Rydell High,
God help us, and I want you all to be on your best behaviour.
No heinie-biting.
And now, here he is,
the Prince of the PIatters,
Mr Vince Fontaine.
Mr Vince Fontaine?
It's great being here at Rydell High.
What's your name, sweetheart?
And now, for the rules.
Game rule one. AII couples must be boy-girl.
Too bad, Eugene.
AIright, alright. Come on.
Game rule two. During the dance contest,
if you're tapped on the shoulder, Ieave the floor, or else. I mean it.
And rule three, anyone doing tasteless
or vulgar movements will be disqualified.
That Ieaves us out.
Keep it clean, please. Keep it clean.
20 seconds.
Thank you, fans and friends. Now a few words to the wise.
You are my best pals.
To Iook your best for the contest, just have a ball, that's all.
Forget the camera, keep on the beat,
give the folks at home a treat. Keep dancin', that's showbiz.
If I tap you, step aside. Let the others ride.
Ten seconds. Nine, eight,
seven, six, five, four,
three, two, one. On the air.
Welcome to National Bandstand, Iive from Rydell High School.
This is what you're waiting for, the dance-off.
Away we go with Johnny Casino and the Gamblers.
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine...
Look. There's the camera!
That's Putzie and Jan.
Said you was high class, that was just a lie
Call yourself high class, that was just a lie
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit...
There's Danny and Sandy.
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine
Now the event you've all been waiting for, the national dance-off.
Some guy and gal will get some fantabulous prizes.
Don't feel bad if I tap you out. It don't matter if you win or lose,
it's what you do with your dancin' shoes.
Does everybody here know Marty?
OK, cats, throw your mittens round your kittens. Away we go!
That wasn't supposed to happen!
Let's go, Iet's hand-jive!
Before I was born late one night
My papa said everything's alright
The doctor made my ma lay down...
Guy with the girl in red, throw 'em out.
Cos the bebop stork was about to arrive
Mama gave birth to the hand-jive
I could barely walk when I milked a cow
When I was three I pushed a plough
While choppin' wood I'd move my legs
And I started dancin' while I gathered eggs
Townsfolk clapped, I was only five
I'd outdance 'em all, I was born to hand-jive
Yes, split 'em, buddy.
Go, go, go, go.
Shake it.
Shimmy.
Attagirl!
Everybody! Born to hand-jive, baby
Here we go.
Break it up! What is that?
C'mon now, shake it!
Twist it!
AIright, get it!
How low can you go?
There you go!
C'mon now, hand-jive!
That's the stuff!
Do it, baby!
Do it!
That's the hand-jive grand-jive!
Yeah, Iet's bring it up now!
Bring it on up!
Higher!
Higher and higher!
Now can you hand-jive, baby?
Can you hand-jive, baby?
Born to hand-jive
Oh, yeah!
Here they are, the new champs.
Come on up here.
- Can I have your names, please? - Cha Cha DiGregorio and Danny Zuko.
- We'II do it now. - Where's Marty?
- Don't worry, she's in good hands. - Whose?
Now Iet's see our champs in a spotlight dance.
- Blue moon - Blue, blue, blue, blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own...
Ready? One, one, two, three, go.
Blue moon...
Who's that on the right?
We have pictures of you so-called mooners.
Just because it's not your faces doesn't mean we can't identify you.
At this very moment, those pictures are on the way to Washington,
where the FBI has experts in this type of identification.
If you turn yourselves in now, you may escape a federal charge.
C'mon, Doody. Watch your hands. Move it out.
I feel Iike a meatball in here.
Let's go find the chicks.
Hold my money. Don't Iet me go near the refreshment stand.
- I'm not hungry. - What's happening?
There's nobody here.
Come on, Sandy. I told you on the phone I was sorry.
- I know you did. - You believe me, don't you?
Yes, but I still think you and Cha Cha went together.
We did not go together. We just went together.
- It's the same thing. - No.
Sandy, I'm sorry.
Would you wear my ring?
Danny. I don't know what to say.
- Say, yes. - Yes.
Danny, this means so much to me. Cos I know now that you respect me.
Watch it.
- What's with you tonight? - I feel Iike a defective typewriter.
- I skipped a period. - You think you're PG?
I don't know. Big deal.
- Was it Kenickie? - Nah, you don't know the guy.
Rizz, Iook, it's OK.
I caught Vince Fontaine putting aspirin in my Coke at the dance.
- Marty, you won't tell no one? - Sure, I'II take it to the grave.
Coming through, coming through. Come on, Iady with a baby.
Marty, what's up?
Rizzo's pregnant.
Rizzo's got a bun in the oven.
Rizzo's knocked up.
Rizzo, I hear you're knocked up.
You do? Boy, good news really travels fast.
Why didn't you tell me about it?
What's it to you?
- I might be able to do something. - You did enough.
I don't run away from my mistakes.
Don't worry about it, Kenickie. It was somebody else's mistake.
Thanks a Iot, kid.
Any time.
Are you getting a cold?
No. It's probably a Iittle drive-in dust, that's all.
Danny, what are you doing?
Don't worry, nobody's watching.
- Get off me. - Sandy, what's the matter with you?
I thought I meant something to you.
Think I'm gonna stay with you in this sin-wagon? Take this piece of tin!
Sandy, you can't walk out of a drive-in!
Stranded at the drive-in
Branded a fool
What will they say
Monday at school?
Sandy
Can't you see
I'm in misery?
We made a start
Now we're apart
There's nothing left for me
Love has flown
All alone
I sit and wonder why
Why you left me
Oh, Sandy
Maybe
Someday
When high school is done
Somehow, some way
Our two worlds will be one
In heaven
Forever
And ever we will be
Please, say you'll stay
Oh, Sandy
Sandy, my darling,
you hurt me real bad.
You know it's true.
But, baby, you gotta believe me when I say...
.. I'm helpless without you.
Love has flown
All alone
I sit, I wonder why
Why you left me
Oh, Sandy
Why?
Oh, Sandy!
Head it out. Come on, guys.
Well, the crate shaped up.
- It's as hot as the parts on it. - We didn't steal all of it.
- Some of it was donated. - Just wait till Thunder Road.
Right. You could still change your mind.
- The flag is in three hours. - And Greased Lightning strikes.
- You coming? - My boys won't Iet me down,
and I won't Iet them down.
I wanna talk to you.
Those guys at Thunder Road don't fool around, you know.
You want me to punk out?
No, I'm not saying punking out, I'm just...
You know what I mean.
We been friends a Iong time, right?
You remember the drive-in the other night?
The movie with the duel, the guy's best friend went with him
as his Iieutenant, his second?
Yeah. So?
Well, I thought that you could maybe be my second at Thunder Road.
What, you want me to drive with you or what?
Listen, I'II pick you up at three, alright?
Open up the door. What are you sitting around for?
Take the can off the front of the car, you putz.
Hello, Rizz. Are you going to Thunder Road?
Not a chance.
I have to go. I have to talk to Danny.
Without wheels and a motor, he won't know you're alive.
We haven't been friends, but if there's anything I can do...
I can take care of myself. And anybody else who comes along.
You think I don't know what people are saying about me?
Thanks.
That's the one I was telling you about.
There are worse things I could do
Than go with a boy or two
Even though the neighbourhood
Thinks I'm trashy and no good
I suppose it could be true
But there are worse things I could do
I could flirt with all the guys
Smile at them and bat my eyes
Press against them when we dance
Make them think they stand a chance
Then refuse to see it through
That's a thing I'd never do
I could stay home every night
Wait around for Mr Right
Take cold showers every day
And throw my life away
On a dream that won't come true
I could hurt someone like me
Out of spite or jealousy
I don't steal and I don't lie
But I can feel and I can cry
A fact I'll bet you never knew
But to cry in front of you
That's the worst thing
I could do
- You guys think you got a winner? - That's right.
Takes more than a coat of paint on Thunder Road.
- Oh, yeah? - Not thinking of changing your mind?
- No way. - Good. Cos we're racing for pinks.
Pinks?
Pinks, punk. Pink slips. Ownership papers.
Stop. Don't worry. I'II take care of it.
Get the dude, man.
- What did she give him? - A Iock of hair. From her chest.
Poor Kenickie.
See a penny, pick it up, all day Iong you'II have good Iuck.
Gimme that.
If it were in any better condition, it would fly.
- She's gonna. - I brought you this for good Iuck.
Gee, thanks.
- I'm sorry. - I'II get it.
You putz!
Put this under his head.
- Zuko, he's out cold. - What are we gonna do?
Kenickie. Talk to me, buddy.
You OK?
Yeah. I'm OK.
I'm fine.
- You can't drive. - No, really, I'm alright.
I'm just seeing two of you, man.
You want me to drive for you?
Yeah.
AIright. Help him up.
Marty, give me a hand.
The rules are, there ain't no rules.
To the second bridge and back. First one back wins.
Haul ass, kid.
You ain't gonna see me for dust, Zuko.
Come on, baby.
For he's a jolly good fellow For he's a jolly good fellow
Which nobody can deny
Look at me
There has to be
Something more
Than what they see
Wholesome and pure
So scared and unsure
A poor man's Sandra Dee
Danny won.
- Isn't that great? - Yeah.
What's the matter? Aren't you happy?
Not really. But I think I know a way I could be. Could you help me?
- Of course. - Can I come to your place?
Sure. Come on.
Sandy, you must start anew
Don't you know what you must do?
Hold your head high
- Take a deep breath and sigh... - Come on, Sandy.
Goodbye
To Sandra Dee
Attention, seniors.
Before the merriment of commencement commences,
I hope your years with us here at Rydell High
have prepared you for the challenges you face.
Who knows, among you, there may be a future EIeanor Roosevelt,
or a Rosemary Clooney.
And among you young men, there may be
a Joe DiMaggio, a President Eisenhower
or even a Vice President Nixon.
But always you will have the glorious memories of Rydell High.
Rydell forever. Bon voyage.
BIanche, stop blubbering.
- How many? - One.
I don't believe it.
How did I flunk phys ed?
Did I take phys ed?
Step right up here! It's for a wonderful cause.
The Teachers' Retirement Fund. Give 'em a pie in the puss.
Coach, how could you flunk the T-Birds?
Don't worry. You'II get diplomas. Just come back to summer school.
- Summer school? - Look out!
If you'd come to class, you wouldn't have missed me.
Wise guy, huh? Take that, Coach!
Why, you couldn't pitch one inning.
- What's your name? I want you. - Eugene.
- You're a great pitcher. - Thank you.
Get off of that. You got a condition.
Forget it. It was a false alarm. I'm not pregnant.
I'II make an honest woman of you.
Listen, fella, if this is a Iine, I ain't biting.
That's a bona fide offer.
Well, it ain't moonlight and roses, but...
- Hey, there's Zuko. - You gotta be kidding, man!
- What is this? Halloween? - Where did you swipe the sweater?
While you tools were out stealing hubcaps, I Iettered in track.
I can't believe it. Danny Zuko turned jock?
- That's right, I did. - What you doing? Deserting us?
You guys can't follow a Ieader all your Iives.
Come on, you know you mean a Iot to me, but Sandy does, too.
I'm gonna do anything I can to get her.
Sandy?
Tell me about it, stud.
I got chills
They're multiplyin'
And I'm losing control
Cos the power
You're supplyin'
It's electrifyin'
You better shape up
Cos I need a man
And my heart is set on you
You better shape up
You better understand
To my heart I must be true
Nothin' left, nothin' left for me to do
- You're the one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
The one I need
Oh, yes indeed
If you're filled with affection
You're too shy to convey
Meditate in my direction
Feel your way
I better shape up
- Cos you need a man - I need a man
Who can keep me satisfied
I better shape up
- If I'm gonna prove - You better prove
That my faith is justified
- Are you sure? - Yes, I'm sure down deep inside
- You're the one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
The one I need
Oh, yes indeed
- You're the one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
The one I need
Oh, yes indeed
- You're the one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
The one I need
Oh, yes indeed
- You're the one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
Honey
- The one that I want - You are the one I want
The one I need
Oh, yes indeed
Hey, everybody. Rizzo and Kenickie made up.
AIright!
Look! The gang's together.
What will we do after graduation?
Maybe we'II never see each other.
- That won't happen. - How do you know?
What do you mean?
We go together
Remembered forever
That's the way it should be
We're one of a kind
Our names are signed
We'll always be like one
When we go out at night
And stars are shining bright
Up in the skies above
Or at the high-school dance
Where you can find romance
Maybe it might be love
Made for each other
Just like my brother
We'll always be together
We'll always be together...
