As Ponyboy gets ready to take part in the rumble, he swallows five aspirins to ease off his sickness and takes a bath to make him look ‘tuff’. The boys head off to the rumble excitedly. Shortly afterwards, twenty two socs arrive and Darry steps forward to be the first fighter. As a challenge, Paul Holden steps forward as well. Darry is amazed to see his high school friend and football teammate challenge him. As they challenge each other, Dally joins the fight and this causes the fight to become stronger with other members joining. After such a struggle, the greasers finally win.
Ponyboy and Dally rush to the hospital to take a look at Johnny’s condition. Due to them speeding, a police officer stops their car.

The greasers go outside to assist him and Dally pulls out his unloaded gun which causes the police to shoot him. Dally dies and Ponyboy thinks that he had done this on purpose.

After a while, Randy arrives and wishes to talk to Ponyboy. Incredibly, he reveals that he has been worried as they have to be present before the judge the next day. Ponyboy, being protective, says that he was the one who killed Bob instead of Johnny.

During the hearing, Ponyboy doesn’t say much. The judge asks a few questions about his life and then allows him to return and stay with his brothers. However, Ponyboy is still depressed as his grades are dropping and he easily loses his focus and coordination. Mr. Syme, his English teacher, says the he can still improve if he can write an good theme.
That same night, Sodapop runs outside crying as he’s upset that Sandy returned his letter, unopened. He reveals that their arguments are causing this to happen.
They all go back home and Ponyboy takes a close looks at Gone with the Wind. He finds a note from Johnny which send him the same message: ‘Stay Gold’. Ponyboy finally knows what he wants to write as his theme. He starts with the novel The Outsiders: “When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home.”
