Summary of the outsiders (8-10)
After
finished the breakfast, Two-Bit and Ponyboy went to see Johnny and Dally. In the
hospital, Johnny was weak, and asked Ponyboy to finish reading the book called
Gone with the Wind and told him what the book was talking about. At this
moment, his mother came to visit him, but he did not want to see her because she
was a nagging woman. As both of Two-Bit and Ponyboy were leaving, she came to
blame them. On the other hand, Dally was recovering very fast. And, Dally told
Ponyboy that the leader of another gang of greasers called Tim Shepard will be
came to talk about the rumble. Besides, he also asked black-handled switchblade
from Two-Bit for no reason. Afterward, they met Cherry on the way home. She mentioned
that the Socs will be agreed to fight with greasers and without weapons. Also,
she refused to see Johnny as Ponyboy asked her that. It was because she cannot
see the guy that killed Bob. Besides, Ponyboy has mentioned that he can see the
sunset on the East Side as she could see it on the West Side.
Moreover,
the boys, include Ponyboy took a bath and made themselves look tuff before
leaving for the rumble. After this, Ponyboy was having feeling of sinking as
other greasers. He also saw Tim Shepard’s gang was there, and there was
twenty-two Socs were fighting with twenty greasers. At this moment, Dally
started to step up and fight with Paul Holden, who was his friend and football
teammate in the high school. After a long period, the greasers finally won it.
Then, both of Ponyboy and Dally went to the hospital to see Johnny after the
rumble was finished. As Johnny was approaching death, he tried to tell Ponyboy that
fighting was not right and useless, and also ask him to stay gold.
Ponyboy
was staying alone for hours as Johnny died. Then, a man came to him and told
him that his head was bleeding. As returned home, he told the greasers that
Johnny was dead and Dally was broken down because he cannot believe that Johnny
was really dead. At this moment, Dally came and mentioned that he just robbed a
grocery store and escaping from the police. He tried to revolt with a gun as he
realized that the police have already found him out. After a shootout, he was collapsed
by shooting from cops. Moreover, Ponyboy passed out as he sensed that Dally was
died. Besides, he also knew that he got a concussion as he woke up. It was because
his head was kicked by a Soc during the rumble. So, he needed to stay in the
bed for three days.
