They're multiplyin'
And I'm losing control
Cause the power you're supplying.
It's electrifyin'!

I'm going back to Australia and I might never see you again.
Danny Don't... don't talk that way, Sandy.
But it's true! I've just had the best summer of my life, and now I have to go away. It isn't fair.
Danny It's not spoiling it, Sandy, it's only making it better.
Danny... is this the end?
Danny Of course not. It's only the beginning.
Geez! Every teacher I got flunked me at least once! [about Principal McGee] Well, I ain't taking no crap off her this year! If she crosses me, she's gonna find out who's boss!
I was just going for a walk.
You were just dawdling weren't you?
Yes, ma'am
That is no way to start a new semester, Mr. LaTierri!
[mumbles]
Perhaps a session of banging erasers after school would put you on the right track.
Yes, ma'am [laughs nervously]
Well? Are you just going to stand there all day?
No, ma'am. I mean, yes, ma'am, I mean...
Which is it, yes or no?
No ma'am
Good, then MOVE!
Danny [Principal McGee walks away]
I'm sure glad you didn't take no crap off her, Sonny.
Danny Well you know, these girls are only good for one thing.
Yeah, what are you suppose to do with them the rest of the 23 hours and 45 minutes of the day?
Hey Zuko! I've got a surprise for you.
Danny Oh, Yeah?
Danny Sandy!
Danny!
Danny Wha-what are you doing here, I thought you were moving back to Australia?
We were but we had a change in plans!
Danny [His friends stare at Danny with a strange face and he changes moods, pretending like he doesn't care]
That's cool baby, you know how it is, rockin' and rollin' and what not.
Danny?
Danny That's my name, don't wear it out.
What's the matter with you?
Danny What's the matter with me, baby, what's the matter with you?
What happened to the Danny Zuko I met at the beach?
Danny Well I do not know. Maybe there's two of us. Why don't you take out a missing person's ad? Or try the yellow pages, I don't know.
You're a fake and a phony and I wish I never laid eyes on you!
Danny You're looking good, Riz.
Eat your heart out.
Danny But sloppy seconds ain't my style.
Danny Oh, bite the weenie, Riz.
With relish.
Where are you goin'? To flog your log?
Danny Much better then hanging around here with you dorks.
My parents want to invite you over for tea on Sunday.
Danny [the gang freezes, listening in]
I don't like tea.
Danny I don't like parents.
Danny Sandy, don't worry about it, nobody's watching.
Danny, get off me!
Danny Come on, Sandy, what's the matter with you? I thought I meant something to you!
Meant something to you?! You think I'm going to stay here with you in this? This sin wagon? You can take this piece of tin!
Danny [throws his class ring at him and runs away]
Sandy, you just can't walk out of a drive-in!
Well, just watch me!
[Danny is trying out for wrestling and smoking a cigarette]
All right, let's trying cutting it to two packs a day. Now, you have to change.
Danny Well, yeah. That's why I'm here, ya know? To change.
No, I mean your clothes.
Danny Oh.
[after Danny has failed at wrestling, basketball, and baseball, getting in fights each time]
Well, you know, there are a lot of other sports that don't require any physical contact.
Danny Oh, yeah? Like what?
Like, uh... track!
Danny What do you mean, like running?
Not just running! Something that needs endurance! Something that needs stamina! Like, long-distance running! Cross-country running!
Danny That could be cool.
Somebody snaking you, Danny?
Danny Oh, bite the weenie, Rizz.
With relish.
Jeez! Every teacher I got this year has flunked me at least once!
If you don't watch it, you're going to be spending all you time in McGee's office.
Yeah, well, this year she's going to wish she's never seen me.
Oh yeah? And what are you going to do?
I just ain't going to take any of her crap. That's all. I don't take no crap off nobody.
Sonny?
Oh Hello, ma'am.
Aren't you supposed to be in homeroom right now?
I was just going for a walk.
You were just dawdling, weren't you?
Yes, ma'am.
That is no way to start a new semester, Mr. Latierre.
Perhaps a session of banging erasers after school would put you on the right track?
Yes, ma'am.
Are you just going to stand there all day?
No, ma'am. I mean, Yes, ma'am. I mean--
Well which is it? Yes or No?
No, ma'am.
Good. Then move! [walks away]
Yes, ma'am.
Danny I'm sure glad you didn't take any of her crap, Sonny. You would have really told her off, huh?
Hey Eugene! How you doing?
Eugene Hi Fellas!
Did you have a nice summer? Shake, buddy. [buzzes Eugene]
Eugene Ow!
Hey, what's wrong? You're wearing glasses. [Putzie messes with Eugene's bow-tie]
Eugene I got astigmatism.
Aw, too bad.
Come on! Let's go!
Sorry, Eugene. [T-Birds go upstairs]
Hey, Eugene, I'll get that. [picks up bow-tie hands it to eugene] There you go, Eugene.
Eugene Thanks, Sonny.
See you, Fruit boots. [goes upstairs]
Swell bunch you are rushing here to help a lady
Lady? i don't see a lady? [T-birds laughs]
Shut up, shut Up!
What's up, Kenick?
One guess.
You got a lot to offer a girl.
Yeah, you know it
What say you, Zuke?
Danny You're looking good, Rizz.
Eat your heart out.
Danny Well, sloppy seconds ain't my style. [jumps out of the car]
Where you going? to flog your log?
Danny What's better than hanging out with, you dorks.
T-birds
Danny!
Your chariot, my lady.
You know, Danny, I'm kind of worried about this Dance off. Maybe they dance differently the way we do back home.
Its okay, Sandy, maybe we'll invent the Kangaroo bop [Kenickie laughs sarcastically]
Danny Come on, Sandy, let's get out of here
