Two-Bit then offers them "a weed" (2.94).They don't use knives, guns (called "heaters" in this book), chains, or anything like that. He explains to the girls that there's nothing wrong with fair fights, or rumbles, between Greasers.Two-Bit tells them that Dally is probably fighting the guy (another Greaser) whose tires he slashed.Two-Bit realizes his mistake and apologizes to Johnny.Johnny is still really traumatized by the beating he got from the Socs. Johnny looks like he's on the verge of freaking out.Luckily it's just Two-Bit, impersonating a Soc.

The four of them are watching the movie in silence, when they hear someone say, "Okay, greasers, you've had it" (2.72).Pony and Johnny also learn that the girls are at the movies without a car because they'd sent their boyfriends away when they started drinking.But Cherry says, very quietly, that she "kind of admire him" (2.69). Pony says Dally would be nice to the girls if he knew them better.Johnny and Pony defend him, because you have to stick up for the guys in your gang, otherwise it's not a gang, but rather "a snarling, distrustful, bickering pact" (2.66).She's says she's heard about how mean Dally is. Dally leaves, and the girls invite Johnny and Pony to sit with them.Nobody can get away with talking to Dally like that-except Johnny, "the gang's pet" (2.47).He tries to put his arm around her, but Johnny tells him to stop.Dallas comes back with sodas, and hands one to each girl.The word makes him imagine "some poor dumb-looking hoodlum wandering the streets breaking out street lights" (2.39). Pony is embarrassed and says he's a "dropout" (2.39).The other girl, Marcia, asks why Soda is never in school anymore.She says she's seen Soda and thinks he's really cute.She tells him that her name is Sherri Valance, but that everybody calls her "Cherry.".He tells her that his father "was an original person" (2.25) and that his brother's name, Sodapop, is even the one on his birth certificate.But the redhead says, "That's an original and lovely name" (2.24).He doesn't like telling people his name because they usually make some comment. She asks Pony his name, and he tells her, Ponyboy Curtis.When Dallas is gone, the redhead starts talking to the other two boys.Dally gets up to go get some sodas and asks the girls if they want one.She asks him to leave them alone, but he keeps on. When Dally refuses to move his feet, she talks back to him. Now Pony recognizes her-a cheerleader.When Dally puts his feet up on the redhead's seat, she tells him to put them back down.They're probably sixteen or seventeen, and one of them has red hair.These girls are Soc girls, nicely dressed and hot.Pony can't stand it-especially because these aren't "greasey girls" (1.5).Dally starts talking really dirty to the girls.Of course, Dally sits down in the row behind the girls. The seats for people without cars are empty, except for two girls in the front.It's only twenty-five cents to get in if you aren't in a car they have the money, but Dally just likes breaking the rules.The next night, Pony, Dally, and Johnny sneak into the Nightly Double drive-in.
