Grease

After Danny wins the dance-off with Cha-Cha, during which Sandy leaves, heartbroken, he tries to make it up to her by bringing her to the Drive-In. Danny consoles an unenthusiastic Sandy, who's hesitant to forgive him. Danny attempts to remove his class ring from his finger, but it's stuck on his finger. He lubricates the ring with the grease from his hair, and he does get it off his finger, and accidentally elbows Sandy's chest in the process. After quietly snickering to himself, Danny gives Sandy his class ring, and her mood changes from unenthusiastic to happy. She tells Danny that it means so much to her because she now knows that he respects her, leaving Danny wondering what he had just done. Danny makes a pass on Sandy and she angrily leaves Danny, gives him back his class ring, and runs out of the drive in. Danny tearfully regrets what he's done and sings how he truly feels about Sandy, (Sandy (song).

Meanwhile, Rizzo fears that she might be pregnant, and when she tells Marty, she makes her promise not to tell anyone. That didn't last long. As soon as she told Sonny, the story spread like wildfire. When it reaches Kenickie, he talks to Rizzo about it, saying he's more than willing to help her, but she brushes him off saying that it's not his child. Kinickie tries to laugh it off, but angrily rebuffs her saying, "Thanks a lot, kid." and leaves Rizzo in regret at what she'd just said.

Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies

In "We're Gonna Rule the School", Buddy and Jane arrived at the drive-in theatre where Jane sang, “Grease is the Word”. Gossip erupted around her about Jane wearing Buddy's letterman jacket. She passed the social girls who instantly questioned how Jane got the jacket. Rosemary mused what Susan would think about it, and couldn't wait to tell her. The student body joined Jane in song. Inside a parked car, Nancy Nakagawa tried to tell her friends about the new fashion line. They were more interested in making out with their boyfriends, so Nancy snuck out the back and joined the song. Olivia Valdovinos honked her way into a parking spot and then signaled for the T-Birds to get out. The gang emerged from the trunk and backseat in spades. She talked to her brother Richie who assured her no one remembered last year. Olivia was then harassed by the boys on her way to the café and joined the song. Cynthia drove up on her dirt bike and joined the T-Birds in song.

Jane was accosted in the bathroom by Susan and her friends who were protective over Susan as she used to go together with Buddy. Susan feigned happiness over the coupling and then sobbed into her friends, who guided her outside. The girls tried to cheer up Susan, who latched onto Richie across the lot. Dot didn't think she would go for the JDs, but Susan sauntered over. Cynthia waved around a bottle of alcohol and offered to ditch the passion pit for real fun, but the gang shot her down. They wanted to prowl for girls; the first to get a girl won the keys to the car. Susan arrived and asked Richie to buy her a soda. Gil dropped the keys into Richie's expectant hand. The gang left to patrol, but Shy Guy stayed back with Cynthia and offered her his T-Bird jacket to keep her warm. He wanted to see it on her more often, though she mistook the gesture for his endorsement for her to join the gang.

Jane walked to the concessions where Buddy introduced her to his friend group. There were Susan's friends Rosemary, Lucille and Dot, then Rydell football players Wally and Neil. The latter of whom believed Buddy dated Jane so she would do his homework. Wally told her to ignore Neil and welcomed Jane to the crew. Across the lot, Richie shared his plans for the future with a clueless Susan, who then noticed Buddy and laughed dramatically at Richie's words. Jane and Buddy headed to a car where they made out. She worried someone would see them, but he quelled her fears. Richie and Susan made out in his car but he stopped her so they could watch the romantic part of the movie. Rosemary and the other girls told Dot a boy made eyes at her, only to show her a young boy instead. Dot laughed awkwardly then stormed off to get popcorn. She passed Olivia who focused on the part in the movie where a woman was dressed in a risqué outfit and was applauded. Dot tearfully called her mom to pick her up, but saw Jane and Buddy in the car. She made a single call and rumors viciously spread across Rydell.

In "You Can't Just Walk Out of a Drive-In",

Behind the Scenes

The Drive-In movie scenes were all shot at the Pickwick Drive-In, in Burbank, California. Unfortunately, the Pickwick Drive-In was closed down in 1989, torn down, and a suburban shopping center was built on the site, where it continues to stand to this day.
