Character: Stephanie Zinone.
Best scene: Cool Rider. The untouchable camp high of her career.

General Response & Career Impact: The movie is generally considered blasphemous because the original (only 4 years prior) was so enthusiastically received and the sequel considered to be so uninspired. Travolta and Olivia were nowhere in sight. Pfeiffer's career was jeopardized in much the same way that Jessica Lange's was after King Kong.

-She has a sullen quality that is more fitting to a Grease character than Miss Newton-John's sunniness was. Also, though she is a relative screen newcomer, Miss Pfeiffer manages to look much more insouciant and comfortable than anyone else in the cast. *Janet Maslin -The New York Times*

-It's her utter lack of mind-body coordination that makes "Cool Rider" one of the high-lowlights of the entire film. *Michael Dequinda* !!?
