Grease is the word on an upcoming episode of ABC's The Neighbors! TVGuide.com gives an exclusive first at the November 15th airing which features an alien's take on the hit Broadway musical (and later John Travolta film) 'Grease.' Check it out below!

In the episode, "Larry (Simon Templeman) and Jackie (Toks Olagundoye) will do their best Danny and Sandy impressions when they dress up as the iconic Grease characters. But it's not for some late Halloween celebration - they crash a party Reggie (Tim Jo) is hosting to help him "rule the school" over the popular kids."

The Neighbors airs Fridays at 8:30/7:30c on ABC.

About THE NEIGHBORS:

Marty Weaver (Lenny Venito) just wanted the best for his wife, Debbie (Jami Gertz), and their three kids, and moving from an apartment in Bayonne to Hidden Hills, New Jersey -- a gated community complete with its own golf course -- was a step in the right direction. Of course the fact that the entire community is comprised of aliens from the planet Zabvron, and that the Weavers are the first humans who have lived amongst them, presents some challenges. But as the Weavers and the aliens face the struggles of everyday life together, they discover that some things - the ups and downs of marriage, the desire to be a good parent and connect with your children - are universal... intergalactic even. Despite the fact that they're not even the same species, both humans and Zabvronians had a lot to learn from each other. The Weavers realize they've found an ally in the family next door.

"The Neighbors" stars Jami Gertz as Debbie Weaver, Lenny Venito as Marty Weaver, Simon Templeman as Larry Bird, Toks Olagundoye as Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Clara Mamet as Amber Weaver, Tim Jo as Reggie Jackson, Ian Patrick as Dick Butkus, Max Charles as Max Weaver and Isabella Cramp as Abby Weaver.
