Two-Bit freaked out cause he was convinced it was rabid and he broke a window trying to get away, causing Darry to forget about the food, which caught on fire. Soda soaked the kitchen, and Steve, trying to put it out, resulting in a water battle. But Super Darry cleaned it all up in time for Pony to come home. Unfortunaley, he didn't have time, nor the supplies to redo the birthday. A beat went past. What are you doing here? Johnny awkwardly stood there. Maya entered the house, holding a large box.
She put the box on the table. Steve frowned. The gang looked at each before sprinting towards the kitchen. Soda was the first to fall. He lolled his tongue out, eyes shut. Darry handed him a slice of cake. He shoved it in his mouthg. For the first time, Pony realizes that Darry does care about him, and that he's only strict on him because he wants Pony to have a good future.
The next day, as Ponyboy is cooking eggs, Two-Bit and Steve arrive, Two-Bit grabbing him by the waist and spinning him in the air, causing him to instinctively grab the pan, and drop the eggs on the floor. Steve refers to him as a "blonde-headed monkey", and asks what it's like to be a hero, showing him the newspaper article about how he, Johnny and Dally saved the kids, and how the Curtis brothers didn't deserve to be split up after everything they'd been through to stay together.
They later see the dreaded blue Mustang following them, and several Socs, including Randy, exit - but this time, the Socs aren't looking for a fight. Two-Bit insults the Socs while Ponyboy talks with Randy - the insults are so loud that they interfere with the conversation and force the two to talk inside the quietness of the Mustang. Randy reveals that he's finally had an epiphany on how pointless the fighting is, and how he doesn't have a good feeling about the rumble.
This provokes a rather interesting thought within Ponyboy - he thinks about how Bob probably would have just kept on fighting if Randy died, and whether Steve would be like Randy or Bob if Soda died. He realizes what Cherry meant when she told him that "things are rough all over", and has a realization that the greasers and Socs face similar problems, despite their differences in economic and social class. Later, Two-Bit and Pony visit Johnny in the hospital. He asks for another copy of Gone With The Wind.
Two-Bit runs down to the gift shop downstairs to buy it, and Johnny passes out shortly after the nurse says that his mother was there to see him - he angrily states that "she probably just wants to come down here and tell me about all the trouble I'm causin'! He passed out soon after, and the nurse is given the book by Two-Bit who asks her to make sure he gets it. Johnny's mother is outside, angry that her son would rather see "these no-good punks" instead of his own mother - a furious Two-Bit begins to berate the small woman, before being pulled away by Ponyboy.
They visit Dally, and he asks how Johnny's doing - upon being told that he isn't doing well, he asks for Two-Bit's switchblade, and says that they have to win the rumble for Johnny. They see Cherry, who confirms that the Socs will fight fair as long as the greasers do - no weapons. Two-Bit thanks her, and Pony talks with her - she says that she couldn't visit Johnny when Pony asks her if she would, because he killed Bob.
She knows that Bob asked for it, but she reveals that there was another side to him, like Randy said - he was sweet, and he was different from the others. Pony is angered by this, and says that they don't need her "charity" - but realizes when he's about to walk away that she was about to cry.
He stops, and Cherry says that she just wanted to help, and asks if he would help her if he could. He asks if she can see the sunset real good from her side of town - she says that she can, and he says he can see it from his side of town too.
The greasers go home, and prepare for the rumble. After leaving the house, Darry warns Pony and Soda to flee from the scene if the police showed up - he and the older greasers will get jail time, but Pony and Soda will get sent to a boys' home.
Dally arrives suddenly at the rumble, causing the greasers to be distracted and allowing the Socs to land the first blows. Pony is outnumbered and knocked to the ground, being beaten by multiple Socs. Dally takes him to the hospital following the defeat of the Socs, and Johnny dies after telling Ponyboy to "stay gold". A crying Pony is left alone in the room after Dallas storms out after pleading for Johnny not to die.
Pony gets home. Darry immediately asks, "Where you been? Pony informs the gang of Johnny's death, and says that Dally couldn't take it, and that he's "gonna blow". Dally soon calls the Curtis phone, and tells Darry that he's just robbed a store, and that the cops are looking for him. How old was ponyboys father when he died? Who came to ponyboys rescue and chased the socs away? Why did johnny purchase peroxide?
