Another group are the Socs and they are enemies. One day Ponyboy and his friend Johnny find themselves in trouble with the Socs. While they are fighting, Johnny takes out his knife and stabs Bob, fatally killing him. They run away to an abandoned church, where they stay a couple of days. Soon, Dally picks them up and they see that the church is up in flames and some kids are trapped in there. They go rescue them but a giant piece of wood falls on Johnny and is sent to the hospital.
