God, remember the prom?|You got so thin by then.

Oh, I know. I was so lucky, getting|mono. That was, like, the best diet ever.

I wonder, if I had gotten my brace off|sooner, if somebody would have invited me.

I mean, other|than Sandy Frink.

Well, nobody|invited me either.

Well, at least we looked fantastic,|and that is the most important thing.

- We were cool on craze|- Oh, gee. Nice outfits. Really.

- Oh, I know. This town is like so unhip.|- Ecch.

- I can't wait till we move to L.A.|- Me too!

Everything's gonna happen for us there,|Michele, and we'll never look back.

- Okay.|- Dance hall days

- Dance hall days|- Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

That hurt.|But it looked really good.

Dance hall days

Oh, everybody!

- Dance hall, dance hall days|- Okay, everyone.

Uh, it's the moment|we've all been waiting for.

It's time to announce|the king and queen of the prom.

- Ahh!|- And the winners are...

Billy Christianson|and Christie Masters!

Ohh! Ohh!

- Duh.|- Oh, it's me!

Boo-hoo!|I'm so surprised!

Thank you. Thank you.

God, Billy looks|cute in his tux.

- He does look cute.|- Really cute.

Do you think, since it's the last night of|school and I might never see him again...

that maybe he would|dance with me?

I bet he would.|I mean, it's senior prom.

Nobody's going to say "no"|to anyone tonight.

Michele, since this is the|last night of school and all...

would you care|to dance with me once?

No.

I'll dance with you.

Nah. It's no fun unless|you really love the person.

Thanks, anyway.
