Paramount+’s Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies episode seven opens with Richie (Johnathan Nieves) striding through Frosty Palace, bruised face shocking Rydell students celebrating the play. He stops within inches of Buddy (Jason Schmidt) and it seems like we’re about to witness a fistfight. But, no. Instead, we’re treated to a flashback to yesterday – the day before the play.
The flashback kicks off with Shy Guy (Maximo Salas) working out at a gym, pummeling punching bags, before sliding away from that scene to show Gil (Nicholas McDonough) serving up sandwiches at a deli counter. Gil turns his mom down when she suggests he take a few dollars for himself. He’s a good son and wants to help her out. Aww, how sweet!
Did we know Gil is Betty’s older brother?...

Rydell students are gathered for an assembly to learn what to do in the event of a nuclear bomb as Paramount+’s Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies episode five begins. Some seem to take the topic seriously, but Richie (Johnathan Nieves) is more interested in what’s happening that night. He and the T-Birds plan on setting off fireworks at the drive-in, while Jane (Marisa Davila) confesses she has a feeling of impending doom.
It’s Halloween and the momentum seems to be on Jane’s side. Olivia (Cheyenne Isabel Wells) is sure the election’s in the bag, but Jane knows it’s always calmest right before the storm. And that declaration leads into the episode’s first song. Jane sings about bombs dropping, the calm before chaos,...

Alexis Sides had big dreams when he moved from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Last year they came true. With only a few student films under his belt, Sides was cast as Potato (Pedro), the T-Bird in Paramount+'s prequel series Grease: Rise Of The Pink Ladies.
We caught up with Sides to chat about his experience filming the first season of the nostalgia-infused musical series.
When asked how the response has been from his family back home, Sides says, "Everybody's excited! It's been a long ride."
"Coming from Cabo San Lucas, such a small place, everybody [there] is so excited -- my mom and her boyfriend, my grandma, are all so proud. Everybody's been texting me. I'm ecstatic. It's just amazing to be part of this show."
A theatre kid growing up, Sides was already familiar with Grease. "In Mexico, Grease is a big thing. We call it Vaselina.
