It’s finally time for the Vince Fontaine Dance! All of the T-Birds and Pink Ladies arrive in their pairs, except for Rizzo and Kenickie. Rizzo arrives along with Kenickie’s rival from the Scorpions and Kenickie arrives along with ChaCha from St. Bernadette’s higher school. The dance kicks off along with Joe Jonas and his band DNCE. They front “Rock ‘N Roll,” their single “Cake by the Ocean,” “Maybe (Baby),” “Born to Hand Jive,” and “Mooning.” Everybody dances and Sandy asks Danny to promise not to let her be seen on camera. He wonders exactly how they’ll gain if she doesn’t wish to be seen, and tells her not to be scared. Mario Lopez likewise doubles as the iconic Vince Fontaine that tries to move in on Marty that thinks much better of it after realizing that he’s a nasty old man. I truly chance that Mario Lopez got paid for two jobs as opposed to one here — don’t be stingy, FOX!!
When the dance goes live, these children hand jive for their lives! Dramatization ensues, though, Once Rizzo and their partners ultimately get hold of kicked from the competition for their suggestive moves, and Once Danny betrays Sandy Once he forces her in to the camera. She runs off and Danny keeps up his dancing along with Cha Cha; the two ultimately gain the competition.

Even though the sound cut out for regarding 30 seconds, this hand jive competition was very higher energy! Danny couldn’t take off his dancing shoes for even a moment so he could look after his date! My GOD! After Sandy runs off, she heads residence to vocally cleanse her sorrows while singing “Hopelessly Devoted,” on Spencer Hastings’s porch.
Even though Danny betrayed her a week ago at the dance, she still went to the drive-in theatre along with him. She’s upset that he forced her on camera, and likewise upset that he “went together” along with Cha Cha. Okay, so stop dating him? Sandy after that explains that she couldn’t be seen on camera due to the fact that her parents don’t enable her to go to dances. Danny understands, and they reconcile. He after that gives her his class ring. After making up, Danny thinks it’s higher time to get hold of fresh along with her. Sandy thinks otherwise and bolts, throwing his ring spine at him. This prompts Danny to have actually his little heartfelt moment and sing “Sandy.”
On the others edge of the drive-in Rizzo tells Marty that she’s pregnant. She likewise tells Marty not to tell anyone, and Marty immediately tells people. The news travels remarkably fast to Kenickie. Rizzo assures your man that the baby isn’t his.
At school the next day, the T-Birds talk regarding making some a lot more adjustments to Kenickie’s automobile so he can easily race the Scorpions on Thunderroad. They enlist the suggestions of the Rocket Club Nerd, and Danny agrees to drive Kenickie’s 2nd at Thunder Road. In the halls, Patty Simcox and her crew laugh at Rizzo for being knocked up along with a child whose father she doesn’t know. Sandy overhears and sticks up for her friend by ripping Patty and brand-new one and telling her to “mind her business for a change,” and to be “kind.” Ohhh, get hold of ’em! Rizzo appreciates Sandy’s help, then goes immediately in to “There Are Worse Points I Could I Do.” Vanessa is surely a lot more impressive here compared to she was throughout “Check out Me I’m Sandra Dee.”
That night at Thunder Road, the T-Birds gear up race the Scorpions. The Pink Ladies arrive to meet their men, and Danny decided to drive for Kenickie after he backs out after seeing Rizzo seeing Rizzo carrying his feasible child. due to the fact that he’s such a good friend, Danny knocks Kenickie out along with the automobile door so it doesn’t look enjoy his friend chickened out. Now, just what happens next is an impressive yet poor attempt to use loud music, fast lights, fog, and dodgey camera angles to mimic the look of racing cars. They could as well have pushed some hot wheels across the studio lot and used SnapChat’s fastword feature to get hold of a a lot more realistic look!
Danny of road wins the race after forcing fire to come from engine. Sandy is so impressed that she sings a short “Sandra Dee (reprise)” to say goodbye to Sandra Dee.
At long last, it’s the last day of school for our beloved higher schoolers! Miracles abound, Rizzo’s pregnancy was merely a scare and she’s free to move regarding sans child. Danny wears a letterman sweater. Most impressively, Sandy arrives pulled and plucked to the Gawds in black leather, teased hair, and red heels, nails, and lips. She and Danny engage in a sexually charged rendition of “You’re the One That I Want.” After the song, the entire casts loads themselves in to golf carts, that they foolishly drive themselves while singing “We Go Together.” On the wet pavement, the golf carts round corners and at least on nearly hints over! Aside from the near-death experience for ensemble members, this number is the very best of the night. Full of pure, organized chaos, fun, and carnival rides!

Wow! Grease Live! changed my life!! Not only did it continue to be true to the original movie and musical, yet it chopped up the musical number for a excellent story that rang true in 2016. Even along with the brand-new addition of Carly Rae Jepsen’s song, “All I Necessity Is An Angel,” nothing truly seemd from place. Sure, Aaron Tveit and Julianne Hough’s turns as Danny and Sandy were quite one-note and stereotypical, but they both could sing and brought a sweet innocence to the roles. I’m likewise beyond impressed by Vanessa Hudgens’s strength in performing merely hours after her father passed away. I do believe that they could have actually dramatically cut the script down, due to the fact that the soundtrack is so minimal compared to others musicals. yet overall, Grease Live! brought good ole wholesome sexual innuendo enjoyable spine to musical theatre TV — and Jordan Fisher in to our lives, so I truly can’t complain!
