Danny
- Danny: Uh, I'm not very hungry; just gimme a double Polar Burger wit' everything and a cherry soda wit' chocolate ice cream.
- Danny: That's cool baby, you know how it is, rockin' and rollin' and what not.
- Sandy: Danny?
- Danny: That's my name, don't wear it out.
- Sandy: What's the matter with you?
- Danny: What's the matter with me, baby, what's the matter with you?
- Sandy: 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.
- Sandy: You're a fake and a phony and I wish I never laid eyes on you!
- Coach Calhoun: [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.
- Coach Calhoun: No, I mean your clothes.
- Danny: Oh.
- Sonny: Geez! Every teacher I got this year has flunked me at least once!
- Doody: Yeah, and if you don't watch it, you're gonna be spending all your time in McGee's office.
- Sonny: Yeah, well, this year, she's gonna wish she's never seen me.
- Doody: Oh yeah? And what are you gonna do?
- Sonny: I just ain't gonna take any of her crap, that's all. I don't take no crap from nobody.
- Principal McGee: Sonny?
- Sonny: Oh, hello, ma'am.
- Principal McGee: Aren't you supposed to be in homeroom right now?
- Sonny: I was just going for a walk.
- Principal McGee: You were just dawdling, weren't you?
- Sonny: Yes, ma'am.
- Principal McGee: That is no way to start a new semester Mr. LaTierre.
- Sonny: [in Italian] Go to Naples, all whores.
- Principal McGee: Perhaps a session of banging erasers after school would put you on the right track.
- Sonny: Yes, ma'am.
- Principal McGee: Are you just going to stand there all day?
- Sonny: Uh no, ma'am. I mean, yes, ma'am. I mean I'm just...
- Principal McGee: Well, which is it? Yes or no?
- Sonny: No, ma'am.
- Principal McGee: Good! Then *move*!
- Sonny: Yes, ma'am.
- Danny: I'm sure glad you didn't take any of her crap, Sonny. You would've really told her off, huh?
- Doody: [imitating McGee] Mr. LaTierre. Yes, ma'am. No, ma'am.
- Rizzo: Hey Zuko! I've got a surprise for you.
- Danny: Oh, Yeah?
- Rizzo: [chuckles] Yeah
- Danny: [throws Sandy in front of him] Sandy!
- Sandy: Danny!
- Danny: Wha-what are you doing here, I thought you were moving back to Australia?
- Sandy: We were but we had a change in plans!
- [His friends stare at Danny with a strange face and he changes moods, pretending like he doesn't care]
- Danny: [singing] I got chills, they're multiplyin', and I'm losing control, cause the power you're supplying, It's electrifyin'!
- Danny: Hey guys, look!
- Kenickie: Ladies and gentlemen! Dingleberries On Parade!
- Sonny: Yeah
- [Tom Chisum the football player gets his foot stuck in his helmet]
- Doody: Hey, look! You really put your foot into it this time, Chisum!
- Putzie: Yeah, try hopscotch, you hot dog!
- Sonny: [laughter] What a gavone!
- Doody: Gumdrops, man.
- Danny: I don't know about these chicks.
- Kenickie: Yeah, they're only good for one thing.
- Sonny: Then what are you suppose to do with them for the other 23 hours and 45 minutes of the day?
- Putzie: [With a serious but confused face] Is that all it takes, 15 minutes?
- [Sonny throws a napkin ball at his face, then Doody pinches his cheek. As Kenickie reaches into Putzie's ice cream dish and steals the cherry out of it]
- Coach Calhoun: [after Danny has failed at wrestling, basketball, and baseball] Well, you know, there are a lot of other sports that don't require any physical contact.
- Danny: Oh, yeah? Like what?
- Coach Calhoun: Like, uh... track!
- Danny: Whaddaya mean, like running?
- Coach Calhoun: Not just running! Something that needs endurance! Something that needs stamina! Like, long-distance running! Cross-country running!
- Danny: That could be cool.
- Sandy: [Danny is trying to make out with Sandy] No, Danny!
- Danny: Sandy, don't worry about it, nobody's watching.
- Sandy: Danny, get off me!
- Danny: Come on, Sandy, what's the matter with you? I thought I meant something to you!
- Sandy: 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!
- [throws his class ring at him and runs away]
- Danny: Sandy, you just can't walk out of a drive-in!
- Danny: Why, this car is Auto-matic. Its System-matic. Its Hyyyyydro-matic. Why, its Greased Lightning!
- [first lines]
- Sandy: I'm going back to Australia; I might never see you again.
- Danny: Don't... don't talk that way, Sandy.
- 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 starts kissing her]
- Sandy: Danny, don't spoil it!
- Danny: It's not spoiling it, Sandy, it's only making it better.
- Sandy: Danny... is this the end?
- Danny: Of course not; it's only the beginning.
