Answer 2

Answer:

Johnny Cade:

He is labeled “a puppy that was kicked around too much” and he was the gangs pet. He adores dally, and he is sensitive, sweet, and kind. He barely speaks throughout chapters 1-5 because he was attacked by socs. He carries a switchblade, to protect himself. His family doesn’t care “if he is alive or dead” as described in the passage.

Two-Bit Matthews known as “Two-Bit”: (ALSO CALLED KEITH)

He is very tall, and he is very proud of his sideburns/appearance. He has grey eyes, and is labeled for conformity. He has a special switchblade, which means so much to him. He is nicknamed Two-Bit since he always needs to get his two bits in, (he speaks a lot). He is a wise cracker, who often breaks the law for “fun”.

Dallas Winston (Dallas):

Dallas is a friend of the brothers, but has always seem them as family, since his own doesn’t care. He has been in and out of jail since he was younger, (10). He cares a whole lot for Johnny Cade, more than anyone else. He is described to be a cool, smart, and attractive person, with a big wit, and often confused/hopeless romantic. This often type of behavior gets him in trouble. He can be known to beat up or even kill socs, and he is seen colder, tougher and meaner.
