ROBIN: Thank you, thank you very much. This must be the most enthusiastic, most outrageous, and best-looking studio audience on television! (pointing to a female audience member) Especially you, little doll—I dig those bobby socks.
KIDS: (getting him back on track) Robin!
ROBIN: Let’s kick off tonight’s show by meeting our featured Bandstand Kids!
(The Kids applaud and cheer.)
ROBIN: First up—she’s America’s sweetheart, and a black belt in Tae Kwon Do … Betty Jo Riley!
(As Robin introduces each Kid, they run downstage and wave.)
BETTY JO: I break wood, not hearts!
CINDY: (commenting on the show) She seems nice.
ROBIN: Next—our resident motor head, and a drag race champion … Brock McGreggor!
BROCK: (cheerfully) I failed my driver’s test twelve times!
PEGGY: That’s better than you, Laverne.
LAVERNE: Hey!
ROBIN: She’s the girl next door … for real, she’s my neighbor … Janice Hopkins!
JANICE: (smiling) My mom says we should move.
JUDY: (talking to the TV) Move to my street, Janice!
ROBIN: This guy’s the quarterback of the football team, and vice-president of the knitting club … Carl St. Clair!
CARL: (bragging) I made this sweater myself.
BARB: Is that cashmere?
ROBIN: A world-class yodeler, and three-time winner of the hog calling contest at the county fair … Evelyn Finklestein!

EVELYN: (yodels) Oh-de-lay-ee, oh-de-lay-ee, oh-de-lay-ee hoo! (calls) Suey!
SKIPPYPAWS: Meow.
DARLENE: Quiet down, Skippypaws.
ROBIN: Our very own dynamic duo … I can hardly tell them apart ... the Miller twins!
MICHAEL: (not amused) We look nothing alike.
MARK: (confused) We’re not even related.
LAVERNE: (clueless) It’s like I’m seeing double.
ROBIN: At the Bandstandʼs dance captain, and resident comedienne … Patty Pokowski!
PATTY: (performing) How many TV show hosts does it take to change a light bulb? …
ROBIN: (interrupting) … And everyone’s favorite heartthrob, a crooner with a voice of gold and eyes of blue … it’s Jumpin’ Johnny James!
JOHNNY: (with a wink) Hi.
(Cindy, Barb, Judy, Peggy, and Laverne go crazy for Johnny. Cheering, screaming, swooning, etc.)
BARB: Be still my heart.
CINDY: He’s the most!
ROBIN: Now it’s time to board the train to Coolsville, and get this show on the road. What d’ya say, kids?
(The Kids applaud and cheer.)

ROBIN: What a blast! You Bandstand Kids sure know how to rock!
KIDS: (ad lib.) Thanks, Robin. You know it. Back at ya, daddy-o!
ROBIN: (to camera) And there’s a lot more of that to come, including a special announcement for our viewers at home.
JUDY: Neat-o! I wonder what it is.
PEGGY: Don’t keep us in suspense, Robin.
ROBIN: But before we get to all that, let’s bring out the last member of our cast. This little lady’s a prima ballerina at Miss Vicky’s School of Dance, and everyone’s favorite roller-skating waitress … Wanda Jean Hannigan!
(Wanda enters, on crutches. The Kids applaud.)
WANDA: (dejected) Hey, everyone.
CINDY: Oh, no! That’s Johnny’s partner.
ROBIN: Gosh Wanda, looks like you’ve suffered an unfortunate mishap. Can you give us the scoop?
WANDA: Well, I was working the lunch shift over at Bob’s Burger Palace on Rt. 55, delivering an extra large order of big burgers with a side of Bob’s cheesy fries.
LAVERNE: Mmm, Bob’s cheesy fries.
WANDA: So just as I was picking up some speed, the new girl, Polly Sue, spilled her tray of chocolate malts. Now normally, I can maneuver on a pair of roller skates like nobody’s business, but let me tell you, when my wheels hit that puddle of chocolate syrup and ice cream, I was a goner!
39959 16
ROBIN: Ooo, bummer.
WANDA: Yeah, I really wiped out. Like … splatsville!
DARLENE: What a klutz.
SKIPPYPAWS: (laughing) Sss.
ROBIN: So what’s the story, morning glory? How long do you expect to be on those crutches?
WANDA: Dr. Goldberg said it’ll be ten weeks ’til I can put on my dancing shoes and return to the show.
ROBIN: Tough break, kid.
WANDA: Yeah, it’s no fun being on these crutches. But the insurance settlement is super swell!
CINDY: I wonder who will dance with Johnny.
BARB: (teasing) Bet’cha wish it were you, don’t ya, Cindy?
CINDY: Who wouldn’t?
ROBIN: Listen up, ladies—now that Wanda’s out, Johnny needs a new partner. Isn’t that right, Johnny?
JOHNNY: (moving downstage) That’s right, Robin. Goin’ stag is a drag!

CINDY: Robin said to get dolled up. I can’t go like this.
JUDY: What do you mean, Cindy? You look nice.
CINDY: I want to look PERFECT.
BARB: Here, put on my necklace. It really matches your outfit.
PEGGY: And take my cardigan.
JUDY: Tie this scarf in your hair. It’s just right!
LAVERNE: Wanna wear my lucky ring? I had it on when I aced that geometry test.
PEGGY: You got a C, Einstein.
LAVERNE: (proudly) I know!
(They huddle around Cindy, helping her dress. When they finish, Cindy steps out and does a twirl.)
CINDY: How do I look?
BARB: Beautiful!
PEGGY: Like a winner.
JUDY: Johnny will love it.
(The girls exit stage left, headed to the show.)
ROBIN: … but before the dance-off begins, a word from our sponsor.
(The Bandstand Kids overact as they perform the stylized commercial.)
EVELYN: Gosh Patty, your hair sure does glisten in the sunlight!
39959 36
BETTY JO: Yeah. What’s the secret behind those shiny locks?
PATTY: Thanks, girls. Why, it must be my new Ultra-Shine Shampoo, with luscious lathering lotion.
(Brock and Johnny hold up an official logo sign as the group responds in unison.)
KIDS: … by Splish Splash Bath Products!
MARK: (holding a toothbrush) Aw nuts, looks like I’ve run outta toothpaste. How will I ever get Patty to notice my smile?
MICHAEL: (handing Mark a tube) Here, try my Minty Mouth Foaming Toothpaste. It’s how I keep THESE pearly whites bright.
(Brock and Johnny hold the sign up again.)
KIDS: … by Splish Splash Bath Products!
CARL: (dancing awkwardly with Janice, as if at a prom) I don’t think I’ve ever smelled a sweeter perfume than yours, Janice. What is that terrific floral scent?
JANICE: (flattered) Oh, Carl. You must be referring to my Buds to Suds Bath Soap, now available in five fragrances.

ROBIN: Thank you, Kids! And thank YOU, Splish Splash Bath Products. Don't touch that dial folks, the dance-off is next after a quick word from some of our other, (to Worthington) less important, sponsors. (after a beat, off camera) Okay, we’ve got three minutes to get set people. Let’s move!
(During the next lines, the cast and/or stage crew prepares for the competition, removing furniture from Darleneʼs room and Cindyʼs house, and setting up a judges table with two chairs. At some point, Worthington and Wanda take their seats at the table. But first, the girls enter, an excited gaggle.)
JUDY: We’re here! We’re really here!
BARB: Can you believe it?
PEGGY: Somebody pinch me.
(Laverne pinches Peggy.)
PEGGY: Ouch! It’s just an expression, Laverne.
LAVERNE: Sorry.
CINDY: Look! Robin is coming over here!
ROBIN: Hey, what’s buzzin’, cousin? Are you girls dancing in the competition?
BARB: (pointing at Cindy) She is.
ROBIN: (addressing Cindy) And what’s your name, doll?
JUDY: (interrupting before Cindy can answer, talking fast and shaking Robinʼs hand the whole time) That’s Cindy Sullivan, she’s our friend, we watch your show every week, I can’t believe I’m actually meeting you, I’m Judy, I’m your biggest fan!!
ROBIN: It’s a kick to meet you, Judy. Now, how ’bout givin’ me my hand back?
PEGGY: (stepping in to pull them apart) Don’t mind her, she doesn’t get out much.
ROBIN: Nice of you to make an exception for me. Good luck, Cindy. Enjoy the show, girls. (He walks away.)
JUDY: (swooning) I think I’m gonna faint!
LAVERNE: Just relax and breathe. (demonstrating a breathing exercise) In and out … in and out …

(The girls huddle around Judy. Darlene and Skippypaws enter and cross to the judges table.)
DARLENE: Hello, Daddy.
WORTHINGTON: Hello, kitten. So glad you made it.
SKIPPYPAWS: Meow.
WORTHINGTON: (baby talk) Aw, Miss Maisie Skippypaws.
SKIPPYPAWS: (hissing) Hhhh.
DARLENE: (privately) Is all of this really necessary, Daddy? Do I actually have to audition?
WORTHINGTON: It’s just a formality, sweetheart. Play along.
ROBIN: Here we go, gang. We’re back in three, two, (gestures one). Welcome back, home viewers! Do you know what time it is?

ROBIN: And contestant number two, a girl whose closest friend is feline … Darlene Worthington.
(Everyone applauds politely.)
ROBIN: Okay, take your places everyone. And away we go!

ROBIN: Way to go, girls! You nearly blew the top off this joint. Now let’s see what the judges have to say. Mr. Worthington?
WORTHINGTON: Well Robin, I think it’s obvious—Darlene was born to be a Bandstand Kid!
(Everyone reacts with whispers.)
ROBIN: Okay. (sarcastically) Thank you for that … fair and impartial vote. And who do you pick, Wanda?
WANDA: I’m voting for Cindy. She’s the best dancer.
(More reactions.)
ROBIN: (thrown off a bit) Um, looks like we’ve got a tie, folks. I’m not sure how to handle this.
PEGGY: I’ll choose the winner!
BARB: Let us decide.
DARLENE: That’s not fair!
WORTHINGTON: Perhaps Skippypaws should choose!
SKIPPYPAWS: (agreeing) Meow.
LAVERNE: Cats can’t vote!
JUDY: Let the home viewers call in.
JOHNNY: Well, she’ll be my dance partner. Can I pick?
ROBIN: That’s actually not a bad idea. What do you think, Kids? Should we let Johnny decide?
KIDS: (ad lib.) Yes! Of course. Sure! You bet. Why not?
ROBIN: Alrighty then. Looks like it’s up to you, Johnny. Whaddaya say?
(Johnny thinks for a moment and then breaks into song, the staging of which makes it clear that he has chosen Cindy.)

CINDY: Wow, what an honor! This is just so cool. I’d like to thank my friends Judy, Barb, Peggy, and Laverne.

CINDY: And I promise to do my very best to fill Wanda’s shoes. Her dancing shoes, that is!
ROBIN: Let’s introduce you to your Bandstand partner. Johnny, come over here and say hello.
JOHNNY: Hey, Cindy. Your dancing was really swell.
CINDY: Aw, gee. Thanks.
DARLENE: Ew! Can you believe this, Skippypaws?
SKIPPYPAWS: (shrugging) Meow.
ROBIN: And we haven’t forgotten about you, Darlene. As first runner-up, you’re going home with a year’s supply of Splish Splash Bath Products!
DARLENE: (disgusted) Oh please! We don’t actually use that stuff!
WORTHINGTON: Darlene!
DARLENE: It’s true, Daddy. I wouldn’t even use it on Skippypaws.

ROBIN: (trying to get the show back on track) Let’s thank our judges, Wanda Jean Hannigan and Raymond C. Worthington!

ALL: (ad lib.) Oh no! What’ll we do? That’s horrible. No show?
WANDA: Don’t count on it, Mr. Worthington. I have a new sponsor.
WORTHINGTON: Who?
WANDA: Me.
ROBIN: (genuine) Oh, that’s very nice, Wanda, but this is an expensive operation. Where will you get the money?
WANDA: Remember that generous insurance settlement I mentioned from Bob’s Burger Palace?
KIDS: Yeah?
WANDA: Well, how does this sound? … At the Bandstand, presented by Wanda’s Burger Palace.
ROBIN: (delighted) Sounds like we have a new sponsor!
