They stay there for a few days, during which time Ponyboy reads Gone with the Wind to Johnny and recites the poem " Nothing Gold Can Stay" by Robert Frost. Ponyboy and Johnny find Dally, who gives them money and a loaded gun and tells them to hide in an abandoned church. After the Socs nearly drowns Ponyboy in a fountain, a terrified Johnny stabs Bob, accidentally killing him, causing the other Socs to flee. As they wander around the neighborhood, Bob, Randy, and three other drunk Socs confront them. Ponyboy runs away and meets up with Johnny. When Ponyboy comes home very late, Darry gets angry and hits him. Cherry and Marcia prevent a fight by leaving with Bob and Randy willingly. The Greasers walk Cherry and Marcia home, and Socs Bob Sheldon and Randy Adderson see them and think the boys are trying to pick up their girlfriends. Ponyboy realizes that Cherry is nothing like the Socs he has met before. The next night, Ponyboy and his friends Dally and Johnny meet Cherry Valance and Marcia at a drive-in movie theatre. His gang, including his older brothers Darry (who is the de facto leader of the gang) and Sodapop, saves him. Ponyboy, a young member of a small gang of Greasers, is leaving a movie theater when a group of Socs jumps him.
