Aah!
[SCREAMING]
It's the cops! We gotta go!
If you would just pick
a side, pick a boy,
none of this would have happened.
The longer this goes
on, the less likely it is
the Pink Ladies will get back together.
Maybe I'm done being a Pink Lady.
[UPBEAT MUSIC]
- What happened?
- I don't wanna talk about it.
I always thought I would have
to change the way I am
for a boy to like me.
How is it that you're always so right?
I think I just know you.
You really do.
- So you're with Wally now?
- Yeah.
Wally's a great guy.
He's the greatest.
Maybe I should stop worrying so much
about why I feel
something and just feel it.
We can figure this out.
I don't need your help.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
They're both in there getting expelled.
- So where am I headed next?
- My alma mater.
That's in Connecticut.
I demand an assistant.
- We could get married.
- My parents

- I'll talk to them.
You can't be married
and go to high school.
- What is he doing here?
- Where's Richie?
There's no way he's for this.
My parents put him on
a bus this afternoon.
He's gone, Jane.
You're Jane Facciano.
