Christine Page #5

Synopsis: In 1957, in Detroit, a red Plymouth Fury is built and is the cause of two accidents, one of them fatal, still in the assembly line. Twenty-one years later, the outcast and bullied nerd Arnold "Arnie" Cunningham is getting a ride with his best and only friend Dennis Guilder and he sees the wrecked car for sale in a garden. Arnie immediately falls in love with the car. The car was given the name Christine by it's first owner. He brings the car to a repair shop of the despicable Will Darnell and works hard to restore the classic car. While he works in the restoration, he changes his personality to a cocky teenager and he dates the most beautiful girl in the high-school, Leigh Cabot.

Looks like they cleaned out

the whole place.

Down there.

Yeah.

You better get started.

Yeah!

What do you think?

Lets try it.

Christines gonna come

You better get in the office

and stay out of sight.

Once she gets inside, hit the button

and bring the door down.

Then well have her trapped.

What if he doesnt come?

It will never die

It was meant to be that way

Though I dont know why

I dont care what people say

Rock and roll is here to stay

We dont care what people say

Rock and roll will always be

I dig it to the end

Itll go down in history

Just you watch, my friend

Rock and roll will always be
