The greasers were sitting around inside on a cold, rainy day. Darry was making supper while Soda set the table. Dally came in drenched and shook his hair getting Two-Bit and Steve wet.
"Hey! Watch it!" Steve yelled moving next to Two-Bit. Two-Bit cussed Dally out. Dally grinned. Pony was let coming home as usual. He was walking from the movies with Johnny. They fell asleep in the lot and then woke up and 2 am. Pony went home and Darry jumped up.
"Where the hell have you been? Do you have any idea what time it is? We were gonna call the cops to go look for you." Darry yelled. Pony went into the bathroom.
"We were worried sick."
"Johnny and I fell asleep in the lot." Pony said. Darry growled.
"You what?!" Soda but it.
"Darry, come on, you know he didn't-" he started

"No, you stay out of this. I am sick of you taking up for him!" Darry yelled at Soda.
"No! don't yell at him!" Pony screamed as Darry pushed him to the floor. Darry looked at Pony who then took off out the front door not looking back. Darry ran out.
"PONY! I DIDN'T MEAN IT!" Darry yelled. But Pony was too far off. He stopped next to Johnny and calmly explained what had happened. They went to the park and the socs decided to show up. They walked up to Pony and Johnny.
"You know what a greaser is? A greased trashed freaks." Bob said drunk.
"You know what socs are? White trashed with madras." Pony snapped back. They wrestled with Pony and Johnny and David had Pony's head in the water. Dally was walking by and saw the commotion. He went to the gang who came running out and ran to the park grabbing the socs. Darry grabbed David off Pony who was passed out and wet. He beat the soc's head in. Dally beat Bob and Randy half to death and Johnny stabbed Bob who was gonna shoot Dally. Two-Bit went over to Pony was unconscious and yelled for Darry. The remaining socs ran off. Darry picked up Pony and took him to the house and got him in some dry clothes. Dally was hugging Johnny whole explaining to the cops what had happened. They were not arresting Johnny since it was self-defense. They went and arrested Bob and David and many of the other socs and took them to jail for assault. Later on, Johnny testified in court against the socs. Pony did the same as Darry and Dally testified as well. The greasers won and the socs were sentenced to 24 months in jail.
