♪ Watch out! ♪
They didn't hurt you too bad, did they?
No.
Hey, Pony.
Did they pull a blade on you?
Yeah.
Hey, they ain't gonna hurt you no more. Come on.
Walking by yourself! You don't ever think!
All's I did was walk home from the movies.
Movies and books. Movies and books!
You know, I-I wish that you could concentrate on something else just once in a while.
Why don't you concentrate on girls and cars? It works for me!
Look, if you had to go by yourself, you should have carried a blade.
Oh, yeah, that would have been a great excuse for the Socs to cut his neck a little more there!
If I want my kid brother to tell me what to do with my other kid brother, I'll ask you, all right, kid brother!
Geez, Soda. Why's he always gotta be like that?
He's just got more worries than he used to.
How's it, kid?
I'm fine.
What are you doing out of the cooler, Dal?
Yeah? And what are you doing walking by your lonesome on the street, huh?
It's none of your business, Marty.
It is my business! Look at my nose!
It's huge!
Smartass. He is a smartass kid.
Hey, Dally. How you doing?
I'm doing all right, man.
Thought you were in for about 90 days, Dal.
Yeah, I got out early, man. Good behaviour, you know.
Hey, Johnny, man. How you doing, bro?
Things would go a lot better, if the Socs stayed on the southside of town, man.
Don't worry. We're gonna have it out with them sooner or later.
We sure as hell are. They keep coming over to our side of town.
Damn right.
Those the same guys that got you?
No. They were other guys.
Now that I'm out, I'm gonna make it my business to get the guy who did that to your face.
What about me becoming your personal body guard, huh, Ponyboy?
I don't think it's too hot of an idea.
How about you and Sylvia coming over to game with us tomorrow night?
I wanna go.
Oh, we're taking Evie and Sandy.
Which means no kids allowed.
Big deal!
Nah, nah, nah. I'm gonna go hunt some action.
If little kids are allowed.
We'll go with you, won't we, Pony?
I don't know, Dal. I can't get in no trouble with the cops.
Darry says the court will split us up for sure if I do.
Who's looking for police trouble, man?
I wanna see a movie like the good old days, right, Johnny?
All right. Six o'clock.
I was planning on putting down a couple of six packs of Bud, but if I don't get too drunk, I'll join y'all.
Check this out, buddy!
(Laughter)
You guys wanna give me a push-start?
Not really, but we will.
All right! Let's go!
See you guys later!
I see you got your Christopher back, Dal.
Little broad was two-timing me again when I was in jail, man.
It's cool. I'll see you guys later.
All right.
See you later, Dal.
Darrel: Hey, Ponyboy, you got homework.
You going home, Johnny Cade?
I don't know.
See you around.
All right.
(Sighs)
(Dogs barking in the distance)
Soda: Turn off these lights and get to bed.
I got work in the morning.
We leave them alone.
I don't know.
Who can figure it?
Are you cold, Pony?
A little.
Hey, listen, kiddo.
Darry yells at you like that.
He don't mean nothing.
It's just that he got h*t with a lot of responsibilities after Mum and Dad d*ed he ain't used to.
He loves you a lot.
Sure.
Soda?
Hm?
How come you dropped out of school?
Cos I'm dumb.
The only things I was passing was automechanics and gym.
You're not dumb.
Yeah, I am.
Hey, you shut up, and I'll tell you something, though.
You gotta promise me that you're not gonna tell Darry.
All right.
I think I'm gonna marry Sandy.
I'll probably wait till you're out of school, though, so I can help Darry with the bills and stuff.
Soda?
Soda, are you in love with Sandy?
Mm-hm.
What's it like?
What's the time?
It's real nice.

I'm gonna hang you, Two-Bit!

I came here to see a movie, and I'm gonna see a movie!
I'm freezing, man!
Why didn't you bring a coat, stupid?
I forgot.
(Chuckles)
(Giggles)
Some cute redhead, huh?
Are you a real redhead, huh?
Come on, Dal.
Are you real?
(Laughter)
How can I find out if this is your, your, your real red hair?
If this is the same red hair that you have on your, your...
These eyebrows here. Is it..?
(Scoffs)
(Laughs)
Cut it out, Dal.
Get your feet off my chair, and shut your trap!
Who's gonna make me, huh?
I'm gonna get a Coke.
Who? Your boyfriend?
Leave her alone, Dal.
That's the Greaser who just got out of some jail or something.
Yeah, sure. Whatever you say, honey.
Leave us alone, or I'll call the cops.
Oh, my, my! You got me scared to death(!)
What am I, what am I gonna do now, Pony, huh?
This girl’s making me shake!
Why don't you leave us alone? Be nice and leave us alone!
I'm never nice.
Can I interest you in a Coca-Cola or a 7UP?
(Shouts) Get lost, hood!
Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't...
(Chuckles) I didn't know...
I didn't know you had this problem with... yelling in my face.
OK. All right. I'll go. I know when I'm not wanted.
(Horn honks)
Woo-hoo!
God! Your filthy Greaser!
(Laughs)
Are you gonna start on us now, too?
No.
You don't look the type, anyway. What's your name?
Ponyboy Curtis.
That's an original name.
Yeah, my dad, he was an original person.
I got a brother named Sodapop. It says so on his birth certificate.
My name's Sherry, but my friends call me Cherry cos of my hair.
I know. We go to the same school. You're a cheerleader.
Yeah.
You don't look old enough to be going to high school.
What's a nice boy like you doing hanging around with that trash?
Dally's my buddy. I'm a Greaser, too.
We're all friends.
I'm sorry. l didn't know.
Your brother, Sodapop, he works at the gasoline station, right? At D X.
Yeah, that's him.
Yeah, Soda's the cute one!
I should have known you were brothers!
(Chuckles)
Hey, how come we don't see your brother at school any more?
Has he been working full time since your parents d*ed?
He's a dropout.
Oh, that's too bad.
Here. I thought this might cool you off.
(Horn honks)
Maybe that will cool you off, Greaser!
When you learn to talk and act decent, I might cool off, too!
Fiery, huh? Just the way I like 'em!
Get off of me!
Come on.
Ow!
Look, leave her alone, Dal.
What did you say?
Come on. You heard me. Leave her alone.
What did you say, you little shit? What did you say?
Come on.
You wise ass.
Man #1: Hey, wise guy, cool it, will you?
Man #2: Sit down, punk!
Now you blew it.
Thank you. He had me scared to death.
You sure didn't show it. Nobody talks to Dal like that.
From what I saw, you do.
Why don't y'all come sit here with us so you can protect us?
What do you think, man? Come on.
Might as well.
How old are y'all?
14.
16.
I thought you were both 14!
How come y'all ain't scared of us like you was of Dally?
Oh, you two are too sweet-looking to scare anyone.
Besides, I know about Dallas Winston.
You two don't look mean.
Yeah, right. We're young and innocent.
No. You're just not dirty.
Come on, Dal's OK. I mean, he's tough and all.
But he's a cool old guy, if you get to know him.
He'd leave you alone if he knew who you were.
Well, I'm glad he doesn't know us.
I kind of admire him.
Oi, Greaser! You're d*ad!
What's he doing? Get out of my hair!
Hey, what have you done?
Here, kid, have a beer. It'll settle your nerves.
Well, now, who we got here? Your great-grandmothers, huh?
What are you two young ladies hanging out with these Greasers?
Dal was bothering them.
He was, huh?
Yeah.
Where is old Dal now anyway?
Yeah, where is old Dally?
He left, Tim.
Hey, I know he slashed my tyres!
Look, Tim, he left. He's not here. Really.
You guys seen Dally?
No, no.
Yeah, well, I'll be looking for him.
Dally got a blade?
I don't think so.
Good deal. Tim will fight fair as long as he don't.
You guys don't believe in playing rough, do you?
Well, a fair fight ain't rough.
Yeah, boy. Real simple!
Yeah! If he gets k*lled or something, you just bury him. No sweat!
(Chuckles)
You dig, OK, baby. You want a chew?
Come on, Two-Bit.
Help yourself. Put hair on your chest!
(Chuckles)
Ponyboy, come with me and get some Cokes and popcorn.
Sure.
Y'all want some?
I do.
Yeah, me, too. Get Johnny some, too. I'm buying.
Here you go.
Your friend, the one with the sideburns, is he OK?
Yeah, he ain't dangerous, if that's what you mean.
Hey, what are you doing?
Hey, man!
He sure scared Johnny.
Johnny's a nervous wreck anyway.
He got b*at up a few months ago by some Soc.
Is that how he got his scar?
Yeah, the guy was wearing a few rings.
Oh.
Not all of us are like that.
Sure.
That's like saying all you Greasers are like Dallas Winston.
Leave him, will you?
What you gonna do about it?
Let's take it outside. That's what I'll do.
All right, you two. Why don't you both take it outside?
Well, he's jumped a few people.
Anyway, you think the Socs have it made.
The rich kids. The southside Soc.
Well, I'll tell you something, Ponyboy, and it might come as a surprise, but things are rough all over.
Come on. Let's get out of here.
Or Two-Bit will think we eloped to Mexico!
So, you're from the southside, huh?
Yes.
It must be a nice neighbourhood.
It is. I like it.
Do you?
Mm-hm.
Yeah, I'm... I'm from the other side of town.
(Chuckles) Oh.
(Shouting)
(Horns honk)
Tell me about your oldest brother. You never seem to talk about him.
What's to tell?
He's big and roofs houses.
No, really. I mean, what's he like?
I feel like I know Soda for as much as you talk about him.
Tell me about Darry. Is he wild and reckless like Soda?
Or dreamy like you?
He ain't like Soda, and he sure ain't like me!
He can't stand me!
I bet he wishes he could stick me in some boys' home. Soda won't let him.
What are you talking about?
Come on. You all get along fine.
No, we don't! You shut your trap, cos you ain't wanted at home either!
You shut your mouth, kid!
Ponyboy: I'm sorry. I got a little mad.
Johnny: Don't worry about it.
We couldn't get along without you.
Marcia!
Look who's coming!
What are we gonna do?
Just act normal. Just keep calm.
Who are these clowns?
Cherry, what's going on?
What are you doing?
Just because we got a little drunk...
You call reeling and passing out on the streets " a little"?
Bob, I've told you before, I'm never going out with you when you're drinking!
That's no reason to go walking the streets with these bums!
Who are you calling bums, pal?
You!
Randy!
We got two more in the back seat.
Pity the back seat!
If you're looking for a fight...
I am looking for a fight! Let's go! Come on! Right not!
Come on!
All right! We'll go with you! Just wait a minute!
We ain't scared of these bastards!
I hate fights! I hate 'em!
Cherry: Come here, Ponyboy.
I'm sorry.
Look, I couldn't use this. I could never cut no one.
Bob: Cherry! Come on!
We'd better go with 'em.
If I see you in school and I don't say hi, don't take it personal, OK?
Yeah, I know.
Really. You're a nice boy and everything.
It's OK.
(Chuckles)
I hope I never see Dallas Winston again.
If I do, I'll probably fall in love with him.
Come on, baby.
Don't touch me!

Hey, Johnny! Fancy...Fancy meeting you here!
You're acting more like Two-Bit every day, huh?
Who's acting? What did you get?
Let's go inside, man. Dally told us to stay inside.
Right, I got a loaf of bread, and a week's supply of baloney here.
Peanut butter.
"Gone With The Wind"?
How did you know I always wanted "Gone With The Wind"
I remember you saying something about it once.
Me and you went to see that movie, remember?
I thought maybe you could read it out loud. Help k*ll time.
Thanks a lot, Johnny.
Cigarettes.
A deck of cards.
Peroxide?
You ain't thinking...
We're gonna cut our hair, Ponyboy.
You're gonna bleach yours.
We can't fit descriptions in the newspaper.
No, sir. You ain't gonna touch my hair.
You have to anyway, if we got caught.
The first thing the judge does is make you get a haircut.
I don't see why.
I don't either.
It's just the way they're trying to break us.
I'm gonna cut mine off, too, and wash all the grease out.
No, you ain't touching my hair.
Ponyboy, it's gonna grow back, man.
It's not that it won't.
Go ahead.
Ow!
Sorry, man.

Well, it ain't that.
It's just...
I don't know. I'm all mixed up!
Yeah, I know.
Things have been happening so fast, huh?
(Sobs)
Man, you know that one-horse store this morning?
Two-Bit, he could have walked out with half of that thing.
Old Two-Bit, huh?
Remember how he was wisecracking last night?
Just last night we was walking Cherry and Marcia home from the movies.
Just last night we was laying up in the lot looking at the stars.
Stop it, man! Will you shut up about last night?
Johnny!
I k*lled a kid last night.
He couldn't have been more than 1 7, maybe 1 8 years old, and I k*lled him!
How would you like to live with that, huh?
I didn't mean to.
They was drowning you, and I didn't know what to do.
(Sobbing)
There sure is a lot of blood inside of people.
What are we gonna do?
Oh, man! It's all my fault, bringing a 1 3-year-old kid along!
You ought to go home, Ponyboy!
You can't get into any trouble. You didn't go k*ll him!
No! I'm 1 4 and I've been 1 4 for a month!
And I'm in this just as much as you are!
I'll stop crying in a minute. I can't help it.
I didn't mean it like that, Ponyboy.
Hey, don't cry.
Don't cry, man.
It'll be all right.
It'll be fine.
Let's just... Let's go by the f*re, all right?
(Hoots)
Johnny, are you awake?
Yeah.
There's a monster outside.
What?
We're gonna be OK, Ponyboy.
(♪ ELVIS PRESLEY: "Milky White Way")
♪ Yes, I'm gonna walk on that milky white way...♪
"Lying in the pit of the sun, shoulder to shoulder, head to feet, were hundreds of wounded men lying in the tracks, the sidewalks, stretched out in endless rows, under the car shed. Some lay stiff and still, but many withered in the hot sun. Everywhere swarms of flies hovered over the men crawling and buzzing in their faces."
Man, that's gross!
"Everywhere was blood, dirty bandages, groans, screamed curses of pain. But for four years, she had seen others who had refused to recognise defeat. Men who rode gaily into sure disaster, because they were gallant."
Pretty cool, huh?
Gallant.
The cool old guys remind me of Dally.
Dally? sh**t, he ain't got no more manners than I do.
Soda's more like them southern boys.
Yeah, the manners bit.
Charm, too, I guess, but...
Dallas...
Dallas so really scares me.
Come on. Read on.
Watch your smoke, Johnny.
Ponyboy: 'One morning, I woke up earlier than usual. The church was colder than ever.'
Golly. That was sure pretty, huh?
Yeah.
It's like the mist is what's pretty, you know.
All gold and silver.
Mm-hm.
Too bad it can't stay like that all the time.
"Nothing Gold Can Stay".
Huh?
"Nature's first green is gold Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf So Eden sank to grief So dawn goes down today Nothing gold can stay."
Where did you learn that? That's what I meant.
Robert Frost wrote it.
I remembered it, cos I never quite knew what he meant by it.
Hm.
You know, I never noticed colours, clouds and stuff until you kept reminding me about them.
It's kind of like they were never there before.
Yeah.
I don't think I could ever tell Steve or Two-Bit or even Darry about the clouds and sunset.
Just you and Sodapop.
Maybe Cherry Valance.
I guess we're different, huh?
sh**t, kid. Maybe they are.
Maybe you're right.
(Owl hoots)
(Car approaches)
(Car engine stops)
(Door creaks)
Hey, blondie! (Chuckles)
Hey, Dal.
Wake up.
How you been?
Hey, Johnny, rise and shine, man!
How's Soda doing?
Hey, Dallas! How are you?
Is he upset?
Are the fuzz after us?
Wait. One thing at a time. Are you guys hungry? I'm starving, man.
You're starving? Try baloney for four days!
(Chuckles)
You got a cancer stick, Johnny?
Yeah.
I got a special delivery for...a Ponyboy Curtis.
For you, man.
Who's this from?
The president of the United States of America.
Yeah, right!
I'm serious, man.
From your brother, Sodapop.
How did he know I was here?
I told him where you were, but he didn't believe me.
He really wanted me to give that to you, man.
Sodapop: 'I guess you got into some trouble, huh? Darry's awfully sorry he h*t you. You know he didn't mean it. Dallas got hauled into the station, and scared us something awful. And I wish you'd come back and turn yourselves in. We miss you. Say hi to Johnny for us. Sodapop Curtis.'
Dal, what's going on with the cops? Did you hear anything?
How come you got hauled in?
Those boys down at the station know me by now.
While I was there, they b*at it out of me that you guys were...
Get this one. That you guys were headed for Texas, man.
They think you guys are in Texas.
Texas, man! God!
Look at this guy with his hair, man. I can't believe that.
Blondie, man.
I know I look lousy, but don't rub it in.
You guys wanna get something to eat?
Hey, you better believe it! Let's get out of here.
Johnny: Where did you get this car? Huh?
It's Buck's.
Ponyboy: Dal, don't!
Watch it!
I got it.
What are you doing?
Don't, Dal! Watch it!
I hope you guys are in the mood for barbecue, man.
Jerk!
Trying to k*ll us?
Can we have three barbecue sandwiches, three Cokes and a...?
You guys really are hungry, huh?
That kid you k*lled had plenty of friends.
It's all over town - Soc against Grease.
Look, I started carrying a heater.
Dal, you k*ll people with heaters.
Don't worry. It ain't loaded.
Hey, mister, do you have 1 5 cents?
Nah, I don't have any money, man.
Are you sure?
Could you go away? We're busy here.
Do you have a dime?
Could you go away?
Do you have a dime?
Go away! Get out of here!
That was a close call.
Tim Shepard's g*ng and our outfit are gonna have it out with the Socs in a vacant lot tomorrow night.
Hey, I didn't tell you we got a spy.
A spy? Who?
Remember that good-looking broad I tried to pick up the night you wasted that kid?
What's her name? Uh, Cherry something...The redhead?
Cherry Valance!
Johnny: Cherry, the Soc. Yeah.
Yeah, we were hanging out down at a vacant lot, and she pulls up in a little old Stinger, right?
I thought that took a lot of nerve.
Yeah.
She said that she'd testify that the Socs were drunk, and they were the ones looking for the fight.
And you guys just fought back strictly on self-defence.
So, it's cool.
Man, that little broad sure does hate me.
I offered to take her for a Coke, and she told me to go to hell.
I don't know.
Yeah.
So you think she might like me a little bit?
Huh? I think she's kinda cute.
No?
Right.
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.
What? What?
I got a good chance of being let off easy.
It was self-defence. You just said. Pony and Cherry could testify.
We won't say you helped us.
I'll give you back that g*n. You won't get into any trouble, Dal.
Are you sure this is what you want?
Yeah.
It ain't fair for Darry and Soda to worry about Ponyboy all the time.
I guess my folks aren't worrying.
Hey, man, the boys are worried!
Two-Bit wanted to go to Texas to hunt for you!
Dallas, I asked if my parents asked about me.
No, they didn't! So what?
Do you think my old man gives a hang if I'm d*ad in a car wreck or drunk 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 this hideout. I get you a hangout, man, a hideout.
And look at this. You wanna split. This is just terrific.
Johnny, you don't know what a few months in jail can do to you.
You get mean in jail.
I just don't want to see it happen to you like it happened to me.
(Exhales)
(Shouting)
What's going on?
I wonder how that started?
Jesus Christ!
Pony, where are you going?
Get over here, man!
Gerry, some children are missing!
No, they're not, Theresa.
I'm sure of it. Some have been gone for half an hour!
(Shouting)
Get a hold of yourself!
Come back! Come back! Don't go in there! You'll get hurt.
Come here, man! Get over here!
You're gonna get him?
Pony!
Go back before you get hurt.
(Coughs)
Whoa!
(Sobbing)
What was that?
Is that guy coming?
No.
How come? Too scared?
No. He's too fat.
(Sobbing)
Come on, man! I n here!
(Coughing)
Hey, Dal! Take this kid, man! Take him!
Are you OK?
Ow!
Pony, give them to Dallas!
Get 'em and get out!
Johnny!
Come on, Johnny! Move!
Johnny! Come on! Are you crazy?
You're burning!
Come on, Johnny!
No!
Johnny!
Jesus Christ! Stupid kid!

I'm coming, Johnny!

Johnny, Dallas...
They're all right.
They're behind us. They're in another ambulance.
Anyway, you guys are the bravest kids I've seen in a long time.
What, are you guys professional heroes or something?
We're Greasers.
Are...are you kidding me?
No, I ain't kidding you.
Take me to town. You'll find out pretty fast.
(Clears throat)
You know, you shouldn't be smoking, son.
Why not?
Cos you're a young man, that's why. It's a bad habit to get into.
You're smoking.
I'm older than you. I've been smoking for a long time, too.
(Clears throat)
Pull another stunt like that again, I'm gonna k*ll you.
Ponyboy!
Oh, look at your tough hair.

Darry, I'm sorry!

You sure look fine!

Your friend, the one with the sideburns, is he OK?
Yeah, he ain't dangerous, if that's what you mean.
Hey, what are you doing?
Hey, man!
He sure scared Johnny.
Johnny's a nervous wreck anyway.
He got b*at up a few months ago by some Soc.
Is that how he got his scar?
Yeah, the guy was wearing a few rings.
Oh.
Not all of us are like that.
Sure.
That's like saying all you Greasers are like Dallas Winston.
Leave him, will you?
What you gonna do about it?
Let's take it outside. That's what I'll do.
All right, you two. Why don't you both take it outside?
Well, he's jumped a few people.
Anyway, you think the Socs have it made.
The rich kids. The southside Soc.
Well, I'll tell you something, Ponyboy, and it might come as a surprise, but things are rough all over.
Come on. Let's get out of here.
Or Two-Bit will think we eloped to Mexico!
So, you're from the southside, huh?
Yes.
It must be a nice neighbourhood.
It is. I like it.
Do you?
Mm-hm.
Yeah, I'm... I'm from the other side of town.
(Chuckles) Oh.
(Shouting)
(Horns honk)
Tell me about your oldest brother. You never seem to talk about him.
What's to tell?
He's big and roofs houses.
No, really. I mean, what's he like?
I feel like I know Soda for as much as you talk about him.
Tell me about Darry. Is he wild and reckless like Soda?
Or dreamy like you?
He ain't like Soda, and he sure ain't like me!
He can't stand me!
I bet he wishes he could stick me in some boys' home. Soda won't let him.
What are you talking about?
Come on. You all get along fine.
No, we don't! You shut your trap, cos you ain't wanted at home either!
You shut your mouth, kid!
Ponyboy: I'm sorry. I got a little mad.
Johnny: Don't worry about it.
We couldn't get along without you.
Marcia!
Look who's coming!
What are we gonna do?
Just act normal. Just keep calm.
Who are these clowns?
Cherry, what's going on?
What are you doing?
Just because we got a little drunk...
You call reeling and passing out on the streets " a little"?
Bob, I've told you before, I'm never going out with you when you're drinking!
That's no reason to go walking the streets with these bums!
Who are you calling bums, pal?
You!
Randy!
We got two more in the back seat.
Pity the back seat!
If you're looking for a fight...
I am looking for a fight! Let's go! Come on! Right not!
Come on!
All right! We'll go with you! Just wait a minute!
We ain't scared of these bastards!
I hate fights! I hate 'em!
Cherry: Come here, Ponyboy.
I'm sorry.
Look, I couldn't use this. I could never cut no one.
Bob: Cherry! Come on!
We'd better go with 'em.
If I see you in school and I don't say hi, don't take it personal, OK?
Yeah, I know.
Really. You're a nice boy and everything.
It's OK.
(Chuckles)
I hope I never see Dallas Winston again.
If I do, I'll probably fall in love with him.
Come on, baby.
Don't touch me!

Yeah, it's Darry.
Yeah. Bye.
Where the hell have you been? Do you know what time it is?
It's two o'clock in the morning, kiddo.
Where have you been?
I feel asleep in the lot.
You what?!
I was talking to Johnny.
And I fell asleep in the lot. I didn't mean to.
And I can't even call the cops because you two would be thrown in boys' home so fast, it would make your head spin!
Come on, Pony. Let's go to bed now.
Look, I said I didn't mean to!
"I didn't mean to!" "I forgot." That's all I ever hear from you.
Come on, Darry...
Tired of you sticking up for him!
Don't you yell at him!
Ponyboy! I didn't mean to!

Take it easy, Pony. It will be all right. You just have to cool it, man.
Got a cigarette, Johnny? I'm scared to death.
Well, don't be, man. You're scaring me.
What happened?
Darry h*t me!
I swear we used to get along fine until Mum and Dad d*ed.
Now he can't stand me!
I think I like it better when the old man's hitting me.
At least he knows I'm there.
Let's walk to the park and back.
Maybe I'll cool off enough to go home.
Yeah, all right. Ain't you about to freeze to death?
You're ain't a' woofin'.
Pony!
Pony, got a light?
Found this butt, man.
Yeah, here you go, Johnny.
Uh-oh. Look what's coming.
This is our territory.
Johnny: I bet they're looking for us.
Wanna split?
Stay cool.
Well, well, well. What do you guys know?
They're drunk.
It's that guy with the rings, man.
Aren't these the Greasers who tried to pick up our women?
You guys are out of your territory. You better watch it.
No, pal. You better watch it.
You guys know what Greasers are?
White trash with long greasy hair.

What?
White trash with Mustangs and madras.

I... I... I k*lled him.
I k*lled that boy.
(Whispers) I k*lled him.
Johnny, I think I'm gonna be sick!
Go ahead, man. I ain't... I ain't gonna look at you.
(Whispers) Ain't gonna look at you.
(Vomits)
Pony, are you all right?
You really did k*ll 'em, huh, Johnny?
(Shivers)
Yeah.
I had to.
They, they were drowning you, and they might have k*lled you!
They were gonna b*at me up!
What happened to the other guys?
Huh?
They... they all ran. They all ran off.
When I s*ab him, they all ran.

Come on!

What do you guys want?
Johnny k*lled the Socs.
What?
All right. Good for you. Let's go.
We figured you could get us out, if anyone could, Dal. l...I'm sorry I got you away from this party and all, but I just don't know what to do, man.
I was just trying to get some sleep.
I got into a fight with Shepard tonight.
Let's see what we can do about this mess. Get in.
Ponyboy, are you wet?
Yeah, I'm OK.
Hey, hey! Pony, come on, man.
You'll die of pneumonia before the cops ever get to you!
Come on.
Hey, stupid, take the sweatshirt off, will you, man?
You'll freeze to death.
Man, I wish I had a weed now.
Here. Don't point the thing at me, will you?
It's loaded. Come on.
Here you go. That's 50 bucks.
Look, I'm not gonna tell your brother and get my head kicked in, man.
Then don't tell him!
Here. It's Buck's. It's big on you, but it's dry. Come here.
Get the 3.15 train to Windrixville. It's a freight.
There's an abandoned church on top of Jay Mountain.
There's a pump in the back, so you don't have to worry about water.
Get a week's supply of food, as soon as you get there, before the story gets out.
And then don't so much as stick your noses out the door. Am I clear?
Yeah.
I'll be up there as soon as I think everything's cool.
Hey, relax, buddy. Come on, man. It'll work out.
All right.
Man, I thought New York was the only place I'd end up in a m*rder wrap.
Jesus Christ!
OK, you take care, kid. Good luck.

Peanut butter.
"Gone With The Wind"?
How did you know I always wanted "Gone With The Wind"
I remember you saying something about it once.
Me and you went to see that movie, remember?
I thought maybe you could read it out loud. Help k*ll time.
Thanks a lot, Johnny.
Cigarettes.
A deck of cards.

You're gonna bleach yours.

Two-Bit, he could have walked out with half of that thing.
Old Two-Bit, huh?
Remember how he was wisecracking last night?
Just last night we was walking Cherry and Marcia home from the movies.
Just last night we was laying up in the lot looking at the stars.
Stop it, man! Will you shut up about last night?
Johnny!
I k*lled a kid last night.
He couldn't have been more than 1 7, maybe 1 8 years old, and I k*lled him!
How would you like to live with that, huh?
I didn't mean to.
They was drowning you, and I didn't know what to do.
(Sobbing)
There sure is a lot of blood inside of people.

No! I'm 1 4 and I've been 1 4 for a month!
And I'm in this just as much as you are!
I'll stop crying in a minute. I can't help it.
I didn't mean it like that, Ponyboy.
Hey, don't cry.
Don't cry, man.

(♪ ELVIS PRESLEY: "Milky White Way")
♪ Yes, I'm gonna walk on that milky white way...♪
"Lying in the pit of the sun, shoulder to shoulder, head to feet, were hundreds of wounded men lying in the tracks, the sidewalks, stretched out in endless rows, under the car shed. Some lay stiff and still, but many withered in the hot sun. Everywhere swarms of flies hovered over the men crawling and buzzing in their faces."
Man, that's gross!
"Everywhere was blood, dirty bandages, groans, screamed curses of pain. But for four years, she had seen others who had refused to recognise defeat. Men who rode gaily into sure disaster, because they were gallant."
Pretty cool, huh?
Gallant.
The cool old guys remind me of Dally.
Dally? sh**t, he ain't got no more manners than I do.
Soda's more like them southern boys.
Yeah, the manners bit.
Charm, too, I guess, but...
Dallas...
Dallas so really scares me.
Come on. Read on.
Watch your smoke, Johnny.
Ponyboy: 'One morning, I woke up earlier than usual. The church was colder than ever.'
Golly. That was sure pretty, huh?
Yeah.
It's like the mist is what's pretty, you know.
All gold and silver.
Mm-hm.
Too bad it can't stay like that all the time.
"Nothing Gold Can Stay".
Huh?
"Nature's first green is gold Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf So Eden sank to grief So dawn goes down today Nothing gold can stay."
Where did you learn that? That's what I meant.
Robert Frost wrote it.
I remembered it, cos I never quite knew what he meant by it.
Hm.
You know, I never noticed colours, clouds and stuff until you kept reminding me about them.
It's kind of like they were never there before.
Yeah.
I don't think I could ever tell Steve or Two-Bit or even Darry about the clouds and sunset.
Just you and Sodapop.
Maybe Cherry Valance.
I guess we're different, huh?
sh**t, kid. Maybe they are.
Maybe you're right.

How you been?
Hey, Johnny, rise and shine, man!
How's Soda doing?
Hey, Dallas! How are you?
Is he upset?
Are the fuzz after us?
Wait. One thing at a time. Are you guys hungry? I'm starving, man.
You're starving? Try baloney for four days!
(Chuckles)
You got a cancer stick, Johnny?
Yeah.
I got a special delivery for...a Ponyboy Curtis.
For you, man.
Who's this from?
The president of the United States of America.
Yeah, right!
I'm serious, man.
From your brother, Sodapop.
How did he know I was here?
I told him where you were, but he didn't believe me.
He really wanted me to give that to you, man.
Sodapop: 'I guess you got into some trouble, huh? Darry's awfully sorry he h*t you. You know he didn't mean it. Dallas got hauled into the station, and scared us something awful. And I wish you'd come back and turn yourselves in. We miss you. Say hi to Johnny for us. Sodapop Curtis.'
Dal, what's going on with the cops? Did you hear anything?
How come you got hauled in?
Those boys down at the station know me by now.
While I was there, they b*at it out of me that you guys were...
Get this one. That you guys were headed for Texas, man.
They think you guys are in Texas.
Texas, man! God!
Look at this guy with his hair, man. I can't believe that.
Blondie, man.
I know I look lousy, but don't rub it in.
You guys wanna get something to eat?
Hey, you better believe it! Let's get out of here.
Johnny: Where did you get this car? Huh?
It's Buck's.
Ponyboy: Dal, don't!
Watch it!
I got it.
What are you doing?
Don't, Dal! Watch it!
I hope you guys are in the mood for barbecue, man.
Jerk!
Trying to k*ll us?
Can we have three barbecue sandwiches, three Cokes and a...?
You guys really are hungry, huh?
That kid you k*lled had plenty of friends.
It's all over town - Soc against Grease.
Look, I started carrying a heater.
Dal, you k*ll people with heaters.
Don't worry. It ain't loaded.
Hey, mister, do you have 1 5 cents?
Nah, I don't have any money, man.
Are you sure?
Could you go away? We're busy here.
Do you have a dime?
Could you go away?
Do you have a dime?
Go away! Get out of here!
That was a close call.
Tim Shepard's g*ng and our outfit are gonna have it out with the Socs in a vacant lot tomorrow night.
Hey, I didn't tell you we got a spy.
A spy? Who?
Remember that good-looking broad I tried to pick up the night you wasted that kid?
What's her name? Uh, Cherry something...The redhead?
Cherry Valance!
Johnny: Cherry, the Soc. Yeah.
Yeah, we were hanging out down at a vacant lot, and she pulls up in a little old Stinger, right?
I thought that took a lot of nerve.
Yeah.
She said that she'd testify that the Socs were drunk, and they were the ones looking for the fight.
And you guys just fought back strictly on self-defence.
So, it's cool.
Man, that little broad sure does hate me.
I offered to take her for a Coke, and she told me to go to hell.
I don't know.
Yeah.
So you think she might like me a little bit?
Huh? I think she's kinda cute.
No?
Right.
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.
What? What?
I got a good chance of being let off easy.
It was self-defence. You just said. Pony and Cherry could testify.
We won't say you helped us.
I'll give you back that g*n. You won't get into any trouble, Dal.
Are you sure this is what you want?
Yeah.
It ain't fair for Darry and Soda to worry about Ponyboy all the time.
I guess my folks aren't worrying.
Hey, man, the boys are worried!
Two-Bit wanted to go to Texas to hunt for you!
Dallas, I asked if my parents asked about me.
No, they didn't! So what?
Do you think my old man gives a hang if I'm d*ad in a car wreck or drunk 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 this hideout. I get you a hangout, man, a hideout.
And look at this. You wanna split. This is just terrific.
Johnny, you don't know what a few months in jail can do to you.
You get mean in jail.
I just don't want to see it happen to you like it happened to me.
(Exhales)

What's going on?
I wonder how that started?

Gerry, some children are missing!
No, they're not, Theresa.

No.
How come? Too scared?
No. He's too fat.

Hey, Dal! Take this kid, man! Take him!
Are you OK?
Ow!

Come on, Johnny! Move!
Johnny! Come on! Are you crazy?

Come on, Johnny!
No!
Johnny!

I'm coming, Johnny!

Johnny, Dallas...
They're all right.
They're behind us. They're in another ambulance.
Anyway, you guys are the bravest kids I've seen in a long time.
What, are you guys professional heroes or something?
We're Greasers.
Are...are you kidding me?
No, I ain't kidding you.
Take me to town. You'll find out pretty fast.
(Clears throat)
You know, you shouldn't be smoking, son.
Why not?
Cos you're a young man, that's why. It's a bad habit to get into.
You're smoking.
I'm older than you. I've been smoking for a long time, too.
(Clears throat)
Pull another stunt like that again, I'm gonna k*ll you.
Ponyboy!
Oh, look at your tough hair.
Pony.
Darry, I'm sorry!

You sure look fine!
