Doody
Hey, Rump, I'll trade ya a sardine for a liver sausage. For real? He never tried nothin' with me!
Marty
Huh. You want my coleslaw?

What's all the racket out here?

Sonny
No, Ma'am.
Doody
No, Ma'am.
Miss Lynch
Then move!
Sonny
Yes, Ma'am.
(Miss Lynch exits.)
Roger

Grease
I'm sure glad she didn't give you no crap, Son.
You would have really told her off, right?
Sonny
Shaddup.
(Lights fade on steps, come up again on Girls in the cafeteria.)
Marty
(Squinting and putting her rhinestone glasses on.) Hey, Jan, who's that chick with Frenchy? Is she the one you were tellin' me about?
Jan
Yeah, her name's Sandy She seems pretty cool.
Maybe we could let her in the Pink Ladies.

Marty
Don't mind her, Sandy Some of us like to show off and use scurvy words.

Some of us? Check out Miss Toiletmouth over here. Marty
Up yours, Rizzo!

Rizzo
Hey, look who's comin'. Patty Simcox, the Little
Lulu of Rydell High.
Marty
Yeah. Wonder what she's doin' back here with us slobs? Jan

Rizzo

(Trying to change the subject.)

Maybe they’re fumigating the library again.

How do ya like the school so far, Sandy?

(Patty enters.)

Sandy
Oh, it seems real nice. I was going to go to
Immaculata, but my father had a fight with the
Mother Superior over my patent leather shoes.

Patty
Well, don't say hello.
Rizzo
We won't.

Grease
Patty
Is there room at your table?
Marty
(Surprised.) Oh, yeah, move over, French.
Patty
Oh, I just love the first day of school, don't you?
Rizzo
It's the biggest thrill of my life. (Frenchy starts doing Rizzo's hair.)
Patty
You'll never guess what happened this morning.
Rizzo
Prob'ly not.
Patty
Well, they announced this year's nominees for the
Student Council, and guess who's up for VicePresident?

Scene 4
A pajama party in Marty's bedroom. Marty,
Frenchy, Jan and Rizzo are in pastel baby doll pajamas. Sandy in a quilted robe buttoned all the way up to the neck. The WAXX jingle for the
Vince Fontaine Show is playing on the radio.
Vince's Voice
Hey, hey, this is the main-brain, Vince Fontaine, at Big Fifteen! Spinnin' the stacks of wax, here at the House of Wax— W-A-X-X. (OOO-ga horn sound.) Cruisin time, 10:46. (Sound of ricocheting bullet.) Sharpshooter pick hit of the week. A brand new one shootin' up the charts like

Grease a rock-et by "The Vel-doo Rays — goin' out to
Ronnie and Sheila, the kids down at Morn's school store, and especially to Little Joe and the
LaDons — listen in while I give it a spin!
(Radio fades. Frenchy is looking at a fan magazine that has a big picture of Fabian on the cover.) Frenchy
Hey, it says here that Fabian is in love with some
Swedish movie star and might be gettin' married.
Jan
Oh, no!
Marty
Who cares, as long as they don't get their hooks into Brando.
Rizzo
Jeez, you guys I almost forgot! (She removes a gallon of wine from her overnight bag.) A little
Sneaky Pete to get the party goin'.
Jan
Italian Swiss Colony. Wow, it's imported!
(Rizzo passes bottle to MARTY)
Frenchy
Hey, we need some glasses.
Rizzo

– 75 –

Grease
Just drink it out of the bottle, we ain't got cooties.
Marty
It's kind of sweet - I think I like Thunderbird better. Rizzo
Okay, Princess Grace. (Takes bottle away from
MARTY)
Marty
(Grabbing bottle back.) I didn't say I didn't want any, it just don't taste very strong, that's all.
(Marty passes bottle to Sandy, who quickly passes it to Jan)
Jan
Hey, I brought some Twinkies, anybody want one? Marty
Twinkies and wine? That's real class, Jan
Jan
(Pointing to label on bottle.) It says right here,
It's a dessert wine! (Passes wine to Frenchy)
Rizzo
Hey, Sandy didn't get any wine. (Hands bottle to
Sandy)
Sandy
Oh, that's okay. I don't mind.

Grease

Grease

– 77 –

Rizzo
Hey, I’ll bet you never had a drink before, either...
Sandy
Sure I did. I had some champagne at my cousins wedding once.
Rizzo
Oh Ring-a-ding-ding. (Hands her wine. Sandy sips wine cautiously.) Hey, no! Ya gotta chug it.
Like this! (Rizzo takes a big slug from, the bottle.) Otherwise you swallow air bubbles and that's what makes you throw up.

Jan
I never knew that.
Marty
Sure, Rudy from the Capri Lounge told me the same thing (Sandy takes a slug from the bottle and holds it in her mouth trying to swallow it.)
Jan
Hey, Sandy, you ever wear earrings? I think they'd keep your face from lookin' so skinny.
Marty
Hey! Yeah! I got some big round ones made out of real mink, They'd look great on you.
Frenchy
Wouldja like me to pierce your ears for ya,
Sandy? I'm gonna be a beautician, y'know.
Jan
Yeah, she's real good. She did mine for me.
Sandy
Oh no, my father'd probably kill me.
Marty
You still worry about what your old man thinks?
Sandy
Well... no. But isn't it awfully dangerous?
Rizzo

Grease

Grease

(Leans down to Sandy) You ain't afraid are ya?
Sandy

Jan
Forget it, Marty, I was just teasing ya'.

Of course not!

Marty
Frenchy

Good! Hey, Marty, you got a needle around?
(Frenchy rummages in dresser for needle.)

Yeah, well, tease somebody else. Its my house.
(Frenchy begins to pierce Sandy's ears. Sandy yelps.) Frenchy

Marty
Hey, how about my purity pin! (Marty reaches for her Pink Ladies jacket and takes off "circle pin" handing it to Frenchy)
Jan
Nice to know it's good for somethin'.

Hey, would ya hold still!
Marty
(To the rescue.) Hey, French... why don't you take Sandy in the john? My old lady'd kill me if we got blood all over the rug.
Sandy

Marty
What's that crack supposed to mean?

Huh?
Frenchy
It only bleeds for a second. Come on.
Jan
Aaaww! We miss all the fun! (Jan opens a second package of Twinkies as Frenchy begins to lead Sandy off.)
Frenchy
Hey, Marty, I need some ice to numb her earlobes, Marty

Grease
(Exasperated.) Ahh... look, why don'tcha just let the cold water run for a little while, then stick her ear under the faucet?
Sandy
Listen, I'm sorry, but I'm not feeling too well, and
I...
Rizzo
Look, Sandy, if you think you're gonna be hangin' around with the Pink Ladies - you gotta get with it! Otherwise, forget it... and go back to your hot cocoa and Girl Scout cookies!
Sandy
Okay, come on... Frenchy

– 81 –

Grease
Yeah, well, how long are we supposed to play babysitter for her? (Suddenly a loud "urp" sound is heard offstage.) What was that? (The girls all look at each other, bewildered for a couple of seconds, then Frenchy runs back into the room.) '
Frenchy
Hey, Marty, Sandy's sick. She's heavin' all over the place!
Jan
D’ja do her ears already?
Frenchy
Nah. I only did one. As soon as she saw the blood she went BLEUGH!

Jan

Rizzo

Hey, Sandy, don't sweat it. If she screws up, she can always fix your hair so your ears won't show.

God! What a Party Poop! (Marty pulls out a gaudy kimono. She makes a big show of putting it on.) Frenchy

Marty

Har-dee-har-har!
Rizzo
That chick's gettin' to be a real nerd.
Jan
Ah, lay off, Rizzo
Marty
Yeah, she can't help it if she ain't been around.
Rizzo

Jeez, it's gettin' kinda chilly. I think I'll put my robe on.
Jan
Hey, Marty, where'dja' get that thing?
Marty
Oh, you like it? It's from Japan.
Rizzo

Grease

Grease

– 83 –

Yeah, everything's made in Japan these days.;
Marty

Jan
You never told us you knew any Marines.

No, this guy I know sent it to me.
Frenchy

Rizzo
How long you known this guy?

No kiddin'

Marty
Jan

You goin' with a Japanese?
Marty
He ain't a Japanese, stupid. He's a Marine. And, a real doll, too.
Frenchy
Oh, wow! Hey, Marty, can he get me one of those things?

Oh ... just a couple of months. I met him on a blind date at the roller rink… and the next thing I know, he joins up. Anyway, right off the bat he starts sendin' me things—and then today I got this kimono. (Trying to be cool.) Oh yeah, look what else! (Marty takes a ring out of her cleavage.) Frenchy
Oh, neat!
Marty
It's just a tiny bit too big. So I gotta get some angora for it.
Frenchy
Jeez! Engaged to a Marine!
Rizzo
(Sarcastically.) Endsville.
Jan
What's this guy look like, Marty?
Frenchy
You got a picture?

Grease
Marty
Yeah, but it's not too good. He ain't in uniform.

A police station, what a laugh! They don’t use these kinda hubcaps on cop cars.

Sonny
Hey, here comes that car we just hit? Let's make tracks! Ditch the evidence. (Guys run, dropping hubcaps. Sonny tries to scoop them up as

Kenickie
Okay, Rizzo, if that's how you feel, why don'tcha go back to the pajama party? Plenty of chicks would kiss my feet to ride around in this little number. Rizzo
Sure they would! Out! What do ya think this is, a frat party? (Rizzo opens the passenger door, shoving Guys out.)

Huh? (She covers her ear with her hand, answers coldly.) Oh, nothing. Just an accident.
Danny
Hey, look, uh, I hope you're not bugged about that first day at school. I mean, couldn't ya tell I was glad to see ya?
Sandy
Well, you could've been a little nicer to me in front of your friends.
Danny
Are you kidding? Hey, you don't know those guys. They just see ya talkin' to a chick and right away they think she puts... well, you know what I mean. Sandy
I'm not sure. It looked to me like maybe you had a new girl friend or something.
Danny
Are you kiddin'? Listen, if it was up to me, I'd never even look at any other chick but you.
(Sandy blushes.) Hey, tellya what. We're throwin' a party in the park tomorrow night for Frenchy.

Grease
She's gonna quit school before she flunks again and go to Beauty School. How'dja like to make it on down there with me?

Danny
Yeah, sure, right.

Sandy
Big talk.

Sandy
Okay, what have you ever done?

Aaah, you don't even know what I'm talking about. Danny

But you'd rather spend your time copying other people's homework.
Danny
Listen, the next time they have tryouts for any of those teams I'll show you what I can do.

You think so, huh. Hey, Patty, when'dja say those tryouts were?

Vince
(Grabbing mike back.) And don't forget, only ten more minutes 'til the big Hand-Jive Contest.
(Cheers and excited murmurs from the Crowd.)
So, if you've got a steady get her ready.

Maybe, if nothing better comes along.

Roger
Why don'tcha let me lead, for a change?
Jan
I can't help it. I'm used to leading.

Hey, Zuko, I think she's tryin' to tell ya somethin'! (Patty's pantomime becomes more desperate as

You ain't doin' me no good.

Rizzo thinks you look like Pat Boone.
Eugene
Oh? (Eugene walks over and stands near Rizzo, staring. He polishes his white bucks on the backs of his pants legs. Danny dances with Patty)
Rizzo
Whataya say Fruit Boots?

Danny
Yeah, that's my name, don't wear it out.
Patty
How did the track tryouts go?
Danny
(Nonchalantly.) I made the team.
Patty
Oh, wonderful! (Patty starts signaling in pantomime for Danny to cut in.)

Eugene
I understand you were asking about me?
Rizzo
Yeah! I was wondering where you parked your hearse. (Eugene sits next to Rizzo and Rizzo offers him
Sonny's half-pint. Sonny grabs it back. Patty and

Kenickie
Where'd ya think you were goin', American

Neat. They probably didn't have a bingo game that night. (Kenickie walks away from her and she trails behind him.)
Vince
(Coming up to Marty) Pardon me, weren't you a contestant in the Miss Rock 'N' Roll Universe
Pageant?

Okay, here's a little tune called "Anything"!

Frenchy, Vince, Roger and Doody form lines as
Danny and Patty come through center.)
Patty
I can't imagine you ever having danced with
Sandy like this.
Danny
Whattaya mean?
Patty
I mean her being so clumsy and all. She can't even twirl a baton right. In fact, I've been thinking of having a little talk with the coach about her.
Danny

Why? Whattayou care?

Do your folks know I come into your room every night? Over WAXX, that is! I'm gonna judge the dance contest. Are you gonna be in it?
Marty
I guess not. I ain't got a date.
Vince
What? A knockout like you? Things sure have changed since I went to school... last year. HaHa! (Marty stares at him dumbly for a few seconds, then starts laughing. Doody, Sonny,
Roger and Danny are drinking and smoking in

Miss Lynch.
Thank you, Clarence. (All the kids break up.")

They shoulda got real coconuts!
Miss Lynch
Now, I'm sure you'll be glad to know that I'm not judging this dance contest. (A few kids cheer.) All right. All right. I'd like to present Mr, Vince

Three: If Mr. Fontaine taps you on the shoulder, you must clear the dance floor immediately ...

(Grabbing the mike from Miss Lynch.) I just wanna say, truly in all sincerity, Miss Lynch, that you're doing a really, really terrific job here, terrific. And I'll sure bet these kids are lucky to have you for a teacher, 'cause I’ll bet in all sincerity that you're really terrific. IS SHE
TERRIFIC, KIDS? (The kids cheer.) Only thing I wanna say, in all sincerity, is enjoy your- selves, have a ball, 'cause like we always say at "BIG

Palace window: "Counter Girl Wanted” After a few moments Sonny, Kenickie and Doody enter with weapons: Doody with a baseball bat, Sonny with a zip-gun, Kenickie with a lead pipe and chain. They wear leather jackets and engineer boots. Kenickie
Hey, Sonny, what cracker-jack box ja' get that zip gun out of, anyway?
Sonny
What do ya mean - I made it in shop. (Seeing
Frenchy) Hey, what's shakin', French? You get out of Beauty School already?

Frenchy
(Uncertain.) Yeah... yeah, sure. (Doody smiles and, depositing his baseball bat in the same oil can, exits into the Burger Palace. To her movie magazine.) Jeez! What am I gonna do? I mean, I can't just tell everybody I dropped out of beauty school. I can't go in the Palace for a job... with all the guys sittin' around. Boy, I wish I had one of those Guardian Angel things like in that Debbie

Jan
It's getting late, anyway—I guess it might be better if everybody just went home. C'mon let's go! (JAN pushes SONNY DOODY and

Sandy
No. But doesn't it bother you that you're pregnant? Rizzo
Look, that's my business. It's nobody else's problem Sandy
Do you really believe that? Didn't you see
Kenickie's face when he left here? (Rizzo turns away.) It's Kenickie isn't it. (Awkward pause.)

THERE ARE WORSE THINGS I COULD DO
THAN GO WITH A BOY OR TWO
EVEN THOUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD
THINKS I'M TRASHY AND.NO GOOD

BUT THERE'S 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 MISTER RIGHT
TAKE COLD SHOWERS EVERY DAY
AND THROW MY LIFE AWAY
FOR A DREAM THAT WON'T COME TRUE.
I COULD HURT SOMEONE LIKE ME
OUT OF SPITE OR JEALOUSY
I DONT STEAL AND I DONT LIE

Grease
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.

Kenicky.

Marty, Frenchy, Rizzo and Jan in Pink Ladies jackets enter silently, gesturing the guys to "be cool' as they take up defiant positions. Sandy enters, now a Greasers' Dream Girl! A wild new hair style, black leather motorcycle jacket with silver studs on the back that spell "BIG D," skin light slacks, gold hoop earrings. Yet, she actually looks prettier and more alive than she ever has.
She is chewing gum.)
Rizzo

Danny, what's gotten into you? You couldn't possibly be interested in that... that floozy.

Rizzo, Frenchy, Marty and Jan
YAA-AAY!
Patty
Oh, my God, I'm going to have a black eye:

Grease Analysis

...explode. Grease, generally considered a trivial little musical about The Fabulous Fifties, is really the story of America’s tumultuous crossing over from the 50s to the 60s, throwing over repression and tradition for freedom and adventure (and a generous helping of cultural chaos), a time when the styles and culture of the disengaged and disenfranchised became overpowering symbols of teenage power and autonomy. Originally a rowdy, dangerous, over-sexed, and insightful piece of alternative theatre, Grease was inspired by the rule-busting success of Hair and shows like it, rejecting the trappings of other Broadway musicals for a more authentic, more visceral, more radical theatre experience that revealed great cultural truths about America. An experience largely forgotten by most productions of the show today. Like Hair before it and The Rocky Horror Show which would come a year later, Grease is a show about repression versus freedom in American sexuality, about the clumsy, tentative, but clearly emerging sexual freedom of the late 1950s, seen through the lens of the middle of the Sexual Revolution in the 1970s. It’s about the near carnal passion 1950s teenagers felt for their rock and roll, the first art form that actually changed human sexuality. (The phrase rock and roll was originally African American urban slang for sexual intercourse, going as far back as the 1920s, and it made its way onto many rhythm and blues recordings before the 1950s.) As theatre, Grease finds its...

When you don’t have enough success, it’s hard to feel very good about who we are, especially when other people around you seem to be having plenty of success.”(Levine1990). Genuine, lasting success is never been an accident. It is the result of personal character. Winners always have a sense of mission. They know where they are headed and have figured out how to get there. They are focused. They plan their work and work their plan. They realize that time is more valuable than money. They work smarter, not harder. High achievers usually have one obvious thing in common: personal discipline. Successful people are willing to do things that average people are unwilling to do. The researcher wants to give attention and signify that these high school student workers were venerated by their much appreciated sacrifices.

Moreover, study is made to reach out and unlock possibilities to student workers, in which if given an opportunity to study and be given attention in the society will become successful. Thus, they can have even more than what they have now. These young individuals were forced to work so they can able to uphold with the intention to study and reach their goals.

Blood Sweat and Tears or Just a Little Elbow Grease?

...Blood, Sweat, and Tears or Just a Little Elbow Grease? Abstract While many complain about the ill effects of unemployment, little is being done to prevent it from occurring in the future. This paper uses research from several employment training programs to help investigate what can be done to prevent teenagers and young adults from behaving unprofessionally in early jobs which could result in lack of desire to hire them in the future. Many of these studies have shown that a great deal of the issues that arise in employees are due to a lack of respect and a bad attitude. This paper proposes a set of courses be provided in the community to help better prepare teenagers and young adults for the workplace by teaching not only basic work skills but social skills as well. Blood, Sweat, and Tears or Just Little Elbow Grease? Bob gathers his courage and takes a deep breath. This is the big “make-it or break-it” moment.
