Now I've finally found someone to stand by me

Inquiring Minds Want To Know. . .

At the beginning of "Dirty Dancing," Baby sets us into the story-frame with a voice-over as we watch the family car driving up the turnpike there in Maine.  She says:

That was the summer of 1963 - when everybody called me Baby, and it didn't occur to me to mind. That was before President Kennedy was shot, before the Beatles came, when I couldn't wait to join the Peace Corps, and I thought I'd never find a guy as great as my dad.  That was the summer we went to Kellerman's.

So my question is -- what do Frances and Johnny do, now that they've defied just about everyone?  Does Johnny join the housepainters union?  Does Frances go on to Mount Holyoke?  More important -- does she join the Peace Corps?

What logically proceeds from the ending of "Dirty Dancing?" and!  -- bonus question -- what's the happy ending?

Go.

Oh.  Today's blog title is "The Time of My Life," Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes.  Here's your link.

Wait a minute - where was "Lived happily ever after!" ??

It is implied, silly!

No one ever said the happy ending had to be *joint*
