- Hi, kids.

- (all groan)

Patty Simcox,

the bad seed of Rydell. Hi.

- I love the first day of school.

- The biggest thrill of my life.

- You won't guess what's happened.

- Probably not.

The nominees for Student Council

are out.

- Guess who's up for Vice President?

- Who?

Me. Isn't that the most?

- To say the least.

- The very least.

I hope I don't make a poor showing.

We wish you the best of luck,

don't we, girls?

I've got my fingers crossed.

Oh, you must think I'm a clod

for not introducing myself.

Hi, I'm Patty Simcox.

Welcome to Rydell. (squeals)

Will you be at cheerleader tryouts?

We'll be lifelong friends.

You guys, how do you like Sandy?

Do you think we can

let her in the Pink Ladies?

- She looks too pure to be pink.

- Ohh, double do-do!

What's up, doc?

One of my diamonds

just fell in the macaroni.

Kenickie, want a piece of salami?

Are you kidding?

If I eat that, I'll smell like you.

What a stink!

Hey, guys, look.

Ladies and gentlemen,

dingleberries on parade.

Look! You really put

your foot into it this time.

Try hopscotch, you hot dog.

What a gavone! Gumdrops, man.

Any of you guys see

that new chick in registration?

Sure beats

the foam domes round here.

Jugs bigger than Annette's?

Nobody's jugs

are bigger than Annette's.

Hey, guys. Hey!

Hi, girls.

You're a sick man, Putz.

Hey, I wanna hear about

what Danny did at the beach.

- It was nothing.

- Sure, nothing, Zuko. Right?

- You got in her drawers, right?

- Come on, tell us.

What did you do this summer?

I spent most of it at the beach.

I met a boy there.

You hauled your cookies

to the beach for a guy?

- He was sorta special.

- There ain't no such thing.

It was really romantic.

Everything about it.

You don't want to hear

the horny details.

Alright, I'll tell you.

# Summer lovin', had me a blast

# Summer lovin', happened so fast

# I met a girl, crazy for me

# Met a boy, cute as can be

# Summer days, drifting away

# To uh, oh, those summer nights

# Wella, wella, wella, huh

# Tell me more, tell me more

Did you get very far?

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # Like does he have a car?

- # Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

- # Do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do

# She swam by me, she got a cramp

# He ran by me, got my suit damp

# I saved her life,

she nearly drowned

# He showed off, splashing around

# Summer sun, something's begun

# But uh, oh, those summer nights

# Wella, wella, wella, huh

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # Was it love at first sight?

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # Did she put up a fight?

# Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

# Doobie-doo, doobie-doo, doobie-dum

# Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh

# Doobie-doo, doobie-doo, doobie-dum

# Took her bowling in the arcade

# We went strolling, drank lemonade

# We made out, under the dock

# We stayed out till ten o'clock

# Summer fling, don't mean a thing

# But uh, oh, those summer nights

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # But you don't gotta brag

# Tell me more, tell me more

# Cos he sounds like a drag

# Shuda-bop-bop, shuda-bop-bop

Shuda-bop-bop, shuda-bop-bop

# Shuda-bop-bop, shuda-bop-bop

Shuda-bop-bop, yeah!

# He got friendly, holding my hand

# She got friendly, down in sand

# He was sweet, just turned 1 8

# Well, she was good,

you know what I mean

# Summer heat, boy and girl meet

# But uh, oh, those summer nights

# Whoa, whoa, whoa

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # How much dough did he spend?

- # Tell me more, tell me more

- # Could she get me a friend?

# It turned colder,

that's where it ends

# So I told her we'd still be friends

# Then we made our true love vow

# Wonder what she's doing now

# Summer dreams

# Ripped at the seams

# But

# Oh

# Those summer

# Nights

# Tell me more, tell me more

He sounds real nice.

True love and he didn't lay

a hand on you? Sounds like a creep.

He wasn't. He was a gentleman.

What was his name?

Danny. Danny Zuko.

(all giggle)

Well, I think he sounds peachy keen.

Maybe, if you believe in miracles,

Prince Charming will show up again

someday.

Somewhere unexpected.

See you later. Come on, girls.

- Do you really think so, Frenchy?

- Sure.

Erm, ... Sandy, I think

we oughta get to class.

(all) Do the splits, give a yell

Show a little spirit for old Rydell

Way to go, red and white

Go Rydell, fight, fight, fight!

(fanfare)

And now...

Quiet, please.

Quiet, everyone. Now, boys and girls,

the man of the hour.

The coach we're all depending on

to pull Rydell out of

a seven-season slump,

our very own Coach Calhoun.

(cheering)

- Who's the best?

- (all) Rydell!

Give 'em hell, Rydell!

I just wanna tell you students

that we have a banner year coming up.

Because my boys are primed,

really primed,

because I primed 'em.

Not only primed, they're honed.

Honed to a sharp razor-edge.

We're not just going out there

to win.

We're going out there for glory.

And when we get out there,

we're gonna yank 'em and tear 'em

and rip 'em.

We'll take 'em and roll 'em around

and rip 'em up to pieces!

Then we're gonna slaughter 'em.

And after the slaughter is over,

we're gonna come back here

and ring that victory bell.

Like we always wanted to.

Watch this.

Nyik-nyak, nyik-nyak

Brrr, nyik-nyak

Do a split, give a yell

Shake a tit for old Rydell!

Guys.

Be cool, huh?

Hey, watch out, pinhead!

Well, what do you think?

What a hunk of junk.

Wait till I give it a paint job,

soup up the engine.

She'll run like a champ.

I'm racing her at Thunder Road.

- Thunder Road?

- Yeah. Wanna make something of it?

I wanna see you

make something of this heap.

You're cruisin' for a bruisin'.

What are Scorpions doing here?

It ain't their turf.

- Think they wanna rumble?

- If they do, we'll be ready.

Alright, gang. Let's go get 'em!

- Hey, chicken.

- Whoo-hoo!

What you doing?

- Thanks, Frenchy.

- That's alright.

- You were great out there.

- I messed up, I was so nervous.

- Your split was divoon.

- Hi, Sandy.

- Hi, Rizz. Hi, girls.

- We got a surprise for you.

- What is it?

- You'll see.

Right, Rizz?

Let me comb your hair down.

Where are we going?

Want a little lipstick?

If you fix up this car,

it could be make-out city.

A chick is gonna have to put out

before she even gets in.

You'd better believe it.

Hey, Zuko. I got a surprise for you.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

- Sandy!

- Danny?

What are you doing here?

I thought you were back in Australia.

We had a change of plan.

I can't...

That's cool, baby. You know how it

is. Rockin' and rollin' and whatnot.

- Danny?

- That's my name, don't wear it out.

- What's the matter with you?

- What's the matter with me?

What's the matter with you?

What happened to the Danny Zuko

I met at the beach?

Well, I do not know.

Maybe there's two of us, right?

Why don't you take out

a missing-persons ad or...

...try the Yellow Pages?

I don't know.

You're a fake and a phoney.

I wish I'd never laid eyes on you.

(all) Ooohhh...
