Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who is the leader of the Burger Palace Boys?

Answer: Danny

This is made clear by Cha-Cha at the dance when she says, "Danny Zuko, the big rod of the Burger Palace boys? I didn't think he saw me here." In the movie, the Burger Palace Boys are called the T-Birds.

2. Who primarily sings "Greased Lightning"?

Answer: Kenickie

Again, this was changed in the movie because John Travolta (Danny) mostly sang this song, but in the show Kenickie sings it with the other boys backing him up.

3. Which character is the Pink Lady who is nicest to Sandy?

Answer: Frenchy

Frenchy is generally the nicest of the Pink Ladies. She is also Sandy's new next-door neighbor.

4. Who is the teacher who busts Sonny early in the show?

Answer: Miss Lynch

Miss Lynch seems to have it in for Sonny: "Mr. Latierri, aren't you supposed to be in detention right now?"

5. Which Burger Palace Boy is young, naive, and the 'little brother' of the group?

Answer: Doody

Doody sings my favorite song in the whole show, "Those Magic Changes". He also provides some great comedic moments by just being completely ignorant of what's really going on around him.

6. Which character has a crush on Patty Simcox?

Answer: Eugene

Eugene has a crush on Patty even though she has a crush on Danny.

7. Which character is running for Student Council Vice-President?

Answer: Patty

Patty is oblivious to the fact that the Pink Ladies cannot stand her.

8. Whose nickname is Rump?

Answer: Roger

The name comes from the fact that Roger's favorite hobby is mooning. He sings the song "Mooning" with Jan. Although it is a song about "showing your bare behind to people", it also reveals the crush that they have on each other.

9. Who sings the main song featured during the Pink Ladies' slumber party?

Answer: Marty

In the movie, Rizzo sings "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee" at the slumber party, but in the show that song is sung in the park. Instead, Marty sings "Freddy, My Love".

10. Who goes to the dance with Danny?

Answer: Rizzo

Danny asks Rizzo to go only because he has just gotten into a fight with Sandy and she has gotten into one with Kenickie. However, at the dance Rizzo and Kenickie make up, so Danny ends up dancing with Cha-Cha and eventually wins the Hand-Jive contest with her.

11. In the stage musical, who is the only character not at the dance?

Answer: Sandy

Sandy is the only character in the whole show not in the dance scene. Instead, she sits at home and sings "It's Raining on Prom Night" along with the radio.

12. Which character sings "Born to Hand-Jive"?

Answer: Johnny Casino

Danny and Cha-Cha win the Hand-Jive contest.

13. Who goes to the dance with Kenickie?

Answer: Cha-Cha

Kenickie dumps her on Danny the minute he and Rizzo make up.

14. Which Burger Palace Boy does not have a date at the dance?

Answer: Sonny

Sonny decides to get drunk at the dance instead. Danny goes with Rizzo, Kenickie with Cha-Cha, and Roger with Jan. Doody and Frenchy actually don't come as a date because there's a cute moment in the park scene where Doody tries to ask her but he gets too nervous. They do end up dancing together, however.

15. Who is the DJ who hits on Marty at the dance?

Answer: Vince Fontaine

Like Sonny, Marty doesn't have a date for the dance, but she ends up flirting with Vince Fontaine the whole time.

16. When dancing, what girl is used to leading?

Answer: Jan

Jan is the loud-mouthed tomboy of the Pink Ladies. She goes to the dance with Roger, but he doesn't like that she is the one leading him around the dance floor.

17. Which character sings "Beauty School Dropout"?

Answer: Teen Angel

This is one of the few songs that is in both the show and the movie. The difference is that in the show Frenchy rejects the Teen Angel's advice and doesn't go back to high school.

18. By the end of the show all the couples who are supposed to be together, are. Name the girls that match these boys by the end of the show: Danny, Kenickie, Sonny, Doody, Roger, Eugene.

Answer: Sandy, Rizzo, Marty, Frenchy, Jan, Patty

That's why "Grease" is such a popular classic musical, because it ends so perfectly.

19. In the movie, Danny and Sandy sing "The One That I Want" after Sandy reveals her new bad self. What is the name of the song they sing in the show?

Answer: All Choked Up

I actually like this song a lot better. Also, the chorus has more to sing in "All Choked Up".

20. In the show, Danny sings "Alone at a Drive-In Movie." This was replaced by what song in the movie?

Answer: Sandy

The rumor is that the song was changed for the movie because the original song was too high for John Travolta to sing.

21. Which of these songs is in the movie, but the setting is different?

Answer: Greased Lightnin'

In the movie, "Greased Lightnin'" is sung in shop class, but in the show it is sung in a deserted alley.

22. The song "Grease" is in the show.

Answer: False

Nope! "Grease" was written to play during the credits in the movie, but was not in the original production. The stage version opens with the "Rydell High Alma Mater."

23. Rizzo sings the song "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee," in the show.

Answer: True

Although she does not sing it at the slumber party as is the case in the movie, she does sing the song in the park later in an attempt to annoy Danny. Unfortunately, Sandy overhears and ends up fighting with both Danny and Rizzo.

24. Who does Rizzo sing "There Are Worse Things I Could Do" to, according to the script of the show?

Answer: Sandy

In the movie she sings this song to Kenickie. She doesn't sing it directly at him, but at the end of the song she sees him in the distance which lets us know that she was singing to him. This was an interesting choice by the director because in the show she sings it directly at Sandy, trying to let the girl know that she isn't as tough as she seems.

25. How many songs are in both the stage musical and the movie, including reprises?

Answer: 8

These songs are "Summer Nights", "Greased Lightnin'", "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee", "We Go Together", "Born to Hand-Jive", "Beauty School Dropout", "There are Worse Things I Could Do", and "Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee (reprise)".
