Walker's ability to shed a single tear excites all the girls. One mean solar day after school, Allison Vernon-Williams, a beautiful girl tired of beingness a "foursquare", approaches him, and the 2 fall in love. That same day, Weep-Babe approaches the "square" part of boondocks to a talent bear witness at the recreation center where Allison'southward grandmother hosts events, and introduces himself to her, who doubts his motives. Cry-Baby invites Allison to a political party at Turkey Indicate, a local hangout spot for the drapes.
Despite her grandmother's skepticism, Allison accompanies Cry-Baby to Turkey Betoken and sings with the drapes. As Weep-Baby and Allison hash out their orphan lives (Cry-Baby'due south father was sent to the electric chair later on beingness the "Alphabet Bomber" – a killer who bombed places in alphabetical order ― and his female parent tried to finish him, but also got sent to the electric chair, while Allison'south parents took separate flights to avoid orphaning her if they crashed, but one day, both their planes went down), Allison'southward jealous square boyfriend, Baldwin, ignites a riot. Cry-Baby is wrongfully blamed for the fight and sent to a penitentiary, outraging all his friends and even Allison'southward grandmother, who is impressed by Cry-Baby's posture, manners, and musical talent.
When Lenora Frigid, a loose girl with an unrequited vanquish on Cry-Babe, claims to exist significant with his child, Allison feels betrayed and returns to Baldwin and the squares, though her grandmother warns her confronting rushing into a decision. Meanwhile, in the penitentiary, Weep-Babe gets a teardrop tattoo from fellow drape Dupree (Robert Tyree), telling him: "I've been hurt all my life, just existent tears launder abroad. This one's for Allison, and I want information technology to last forever!".
Eventually later on performing with Baldwin and the Whiffles, Allison is persuaded past the newly established brotherhood between the Drapes and her grandmother to stand by Cry-Baby and join the entrada for his release.
