On the night of the beach movie, Ponyboy and Johnny wander in the park after Ponyboy and Darry get into an argument, and because Johnny's parents don't care about him in the least. While they are there, they are jumped by Bob and Randy, Cherry and Marcia's boyfriends, because they tried to 'pick up' on their women. Bob begins to drown Pony in a fountain, and, panicking, Johnny uses his switchblade and stabs Bob, immediately killing him. When Ponyboy comes to, they go to Buck Merril's where Dally is sleeping for his help. He gives them a gun and 50 bucks, and tells them to take a freight train in Windrixville to Jay Mountain, so they can hide out and not be caught and convicted for the murder of Bob Sheldon.
