"It scared us when Dallas was taken

into the police station.

"I wish you'd come back

and turn yourselves in.

"We miss you.

"Say hi to Johnny for us. Sodapop Curtis."

What's going on with the cops?

Did you hear anything?

How come you got hauled in?

Those boys at the station

know me by now.

While I was there,

they beat it out of me that...

...you guys were headed for Texas.

They think you're in Texas.

Texas! God!

Look at this guy with his hair.

I can't believe that.

Blondie.

I know I look lousy, but don't rub it in.

-Want to get something to eat?

-Yeah. Let's get out of here.

Where did you get this car?

It's Buck's.

-What are you doing?

-Don't, Dal!

Watch it!

I hope you're in the mood for Bar-B-Que.

-Jerk!

-Are you trying to kill us?

Three Bar-B-Que sandwiches

and three Cokes.

You guys really are hungry.

That kid you killed had plenty of friends.

It's all over town, "Soc against Grease."

-Look, I started carrying a heater.

-You kill people with heaters.

Don't worry, it ain't loaded.

-Do you have cents?

-I don't have any money.

-Do you have a dime?

-Go away. We're busy here.

Go away! Get out of here!

That was a close call.

Tim Shepard's gang and our gang are going

to fight the Socs tomorrow night.

I didn't tell you we got a spy.

Who?

Remember that good-looking broad I tried

to pick up the night you wasted that kid?

What's her name?

Cherry something? The redhead?

-Cherry Valance.

-Cherry the Soc. Yeah.

We were at the vacant lot and she pulls up.

I thought that took a lot of nerve.

Yeah.

She said she'd...

...testify that the Socs were drunk

and they were looking for the fight.

And you just fought back

strictly on self-defense.

So, it's cool.

That little broad sure does hate me.

I offered to take her for a Coke,

and she told me to go to hell.

So you think she might like me a little bit?

I think she's kind of cute.

What do they do for kicks around here?

Play checkers?

This place is out of it.

-I've never been to the country before.

-We're gonna turn ourselves in.

I got a good chance of being let off easy.

It was self-defense, like you said.

Pony and Cherry could testify.

We won't say you helped us.

I'll give you back that gun,

so you won't get into any trouble.

Are you sure this is what you want?

It ain't fair for Darry and Soda

to worry about Ponyboy.

-I guess my folks aren't worrying.

-The boys are worried.

Two-Bit wanted to go to Texas

to hunt for you.

-I asked if my parents asked about me?

-No, they didn't.

Do you think my old man gives a damn...

...if I'm dead in a car wreck

or in jail or something?

He doesn't care.

But that doesn't bother me none.

Come on. You're not going anywhere.

I get you a hideout, I get you a hangout,

a hideout.

And now you want to split. This is terrific.

You don't know what a few months in jail

can do to you.

You get mean. I just don't want to see it

happen to you like it did to me.

-What's going on?

-I wonder how that started?

Where are you going?

Get over here!

Some of the children are missing.

I'm sure of it.

Get ahold of yourself.

Come back.

Don't go in there, you'll get hurt.

Come here, man.

You're gonna get him?

Move back before you get hurt.

What was that?

-ls that guy coming?

-No.

-How come? Too scared?

-No. Too fat.

Johnny, watch out!

We'll get you out of here.

Help me! Over here!

Move it! Get out!

Look, man!

In here.

Hey, Dal, take this kid.

Get out of here, Johnny.

Are you okay?

Take them to Dallas.

Get them and get out!

Come on!

Are you crazy?

You're burning!

Get him!

Jesus Christ! Stupid kid.

Help!

I'm coming, Johnny!

Johnny? Dallas?

They're all right. They're behind us.

They're in another ambulance.

You three are the bravest kids

I've seen in a long time.

Are you professional heroes or something?

We're Greasers.

-Are you kidding me?

-No, I'm not.

Take me to town and you'll find out fast.
