Quote #7

SANDY, singing: Wholesome and pure, oh, so scared and unsure. A poor man's Sandra Dee.

Sandy is beginning to care what other people think of her too. She's unhappy being the wholesome "Sandra Dee" namesake. But the real question is why. Is Sandy intrinsically unhappy, or is she caving to peer pressure from Rizzo and others to be more "edgy"?

Quote #8

DANNY: Oh come on, guys, you know you mean a lot to me. It's just that Sandy does too, and I'm gonna do anything I can to get her, that's all.

Danny is also changing himself—and the way he relates to his friends—in order to get Sandy, so we have to ask the same question. Is Danny caving to pressure, or are the two compromising to be who they feel like they should be for the other person?

Quote #9

SANDY: Tell me about it, stud.

This line marks the debut of Sandy's new makeover. She has big hair, a leather jacket, tight pants, and high heels, basically the complete opposite of her "wholesome" wardrobe. And while she's really good at walking in those sky high heels, she doesn't seem too sure yet of how she should act. Will the makeover stick, or is it just temporary?
