Episode 7 - Hopelessly Devoted
from Greaseology Hosted by Cassie Newsom
In this episode we will dive into minutes 30:00-35:00 of Grease, in which Rizzo finishes singing “Sandra Dee” just as Sandy comes out of the bathroom and realizes Rizzo is making fun of her. The T-Birds crash the sleepover in Kenicke’s “new” car to Frenchy’s panicked discovery. Rizzo sneaks out through the window to join them and has a raunchy exchange of metaphors with Danny and Kenicke. Annoyed and wanting to be alone, Danny hops out of the car and takes off on foot when Kenicke invites Rizzo in the car to fill the now empty front seat. Wanting to be all alone, Rizzo and Kenicke immediately kick out Doody, Putzie, and Sonny, much to their chagrin. Back in Frenchy’s room, Sandy is wondering what she ever saw in Danny Zuko, but Marty tells her “don’t sweat it honey, have one of mine” meaning one of her many male pen pals. She gives Sandy a few sheets of perfume scented tissue paper just as the first notes of Hopelessly Devoted begin. We get to spend the remainder of the segment with ONJ singing her unforgettable ballad in Frenchy’s backyard.
