About

Unable to stand by and watch while his best friend is mocked and humiliated, Riff punches Bernardo, trying to defend Tony, and the two gang leaders draw their switchblades (“The Rumble”). Tony tries to stop Riff, but Ice and Tiger hold him back. In the midst of the fight, Bernardo kills Riff.

The Rumble Lyrics

[BERNARDO hits TONY. RIFF turns to BERNARDO, fists at the ready. But TONY grabs RIFF and pushes him back.]

[TONY]
STAY OUT OF THIS!!

[TONY takes a jab at BERNARDO, who ducks, then punches TONY twice. The Jets encourage TONY, while the Sharks encourage BERNARDO. Eventually, TONY gets the upper hand and punches BERNARDO repeatedly. Then, TONY raises his fist...

And he freezes, unable to strike. TONY lets go of BERNARDO and walks towards the door. BERNARDO gets up and sees a switchblade on the floor. BERNARDO pulls out his own knife, while BABY JOHN throws the knife on the floor to RIFF

BERNARDO and RIFF lunge and jab at each other. BERNARDO shoves RIFF away, sending him into TONY'S arms.]

[TONY]
Okay, that’s enough. THAT'S ENOUGH!

[RIFF]
Tony. Tony. Tony!
Lеt go! LET GO!

[RIFF breaks free of TONY and lunges at BERNARDO, impaling himself on BERNARDO'S knifе

TONY pulls the knife out of him as he falls. TONY runs at BERNARDO and plunges the knife in BERNARDO’S chest. BERNARDO dies

All hell breaks loose. Sharks and Jets fall on each other in a murderous frenzy. Then: a siren wails. The Sharks and Jets panic, escaping through doors or up the ventilator windows

ANYBODYS races up to TONY.]

[ANYBODYS]
Tony, c'mon! C'mon! TONY, C'MON!
