Jane, we need to talk.

Before you say anything,

I just wanna say

thank you for the best summer

of my short life.

[chuckles] What? No.

I should be the one thanking you.

First, you saved my hide by helping me

plan a pep rally that is gonna knock

- this whole town's socks off. - [laughs]

But I enjoy that sort of thing.

And then this happened.

And--and this--

Has been a dream.

Yeah.

- I need you to know, I am not some naive girl.

You're popular, and I'm not, and those are just the facts.

- Listen, I know it wasn't easy being the new girl

- at Rydell last year. - It wasn't.

But I started to hope that this year, maybe--

Never mind.

No, what?

I had this dumb idea.

I could run for student council.

And I know that popular kids usually win,

but I thought after everyone sees our pep rally,

maybe I'll have a chance.

And if--when you win president again,

we could still be a team.

As friends, of course. [chuckles]

- Wow. That--

that is a dumb idea.

Jane, we're not gonna be friends.

- Oh. - At least--

at least I hope not.

Because I've been trying to ask you to go steady.

- What? - And you should definitely

run for student council, I'll endorse you.

- This--this isn't the end?

Of course not.

It's only the beginning.

Except talk less.

So one day, a boy was teasing me about my voice,

right in the family jewels!

Said only she can talk to me like that.

After that, I walked right on up to her
