Grease

Esta é aquela cena do filme "Grease" onde o Danny e a Sandy se reencontram. A princípio ele age espontaneamente, mas depois, diante do olhar inquisidor dos amigos, ele disfarça e a trata com indiferença. Vamos rever esta cena e é claro... aprimorar a língua inglesa.

RIZZO - Yeah!

DANNY - Sandy!

SANDY - Danny?

DANNY - What are you... what are you doing here? I, I thought you were going back to Australia.

SANDY - We had a change of plan.

DANNY - I can't... that's cool, baby. I mean you know how it is. Rockin’ and rollin’ and whatnot!

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 - I do not know. I mean, maybe, uh, maybe there's two of us, right? Why don't you take out a missing-persons ad or try the yellow pages? I don’t know.

FRENCHY - Listen, Sandy, men are rats. Listen to me. They're, they’re fleas on rats. Worse than that. They're amoebas on fleas on rats. I mean, they are too low for even the dogs to bite. The only man a girl can depend on is her daddy. You know what you need?

SANDY - What?

FRENCHY - A night out with the girls. Huh? We're having a sleepover at my house tonight. Wanna come? Good. You'll love it. Come on.
