At the beginning of Chapter 3, Two-Bit offers to walk Cherry and Marcia home. However, they live on the west side of town which is twenty miles away. Ponyboy mentions that Cherry and Marcia wanted to call their parents to come pick them up, but Two-Bit convinced them to let him drive them home in his car. Ponyboy, Johnny, Two-Bit, Marcia, and Cherry are walking to Two-Bit's house to pick up his car when the Socs arrive. While they are walking, a blue Mustang pulls up, and two Socs in the front seat get out. The Socs apologize to Cherry and Marcia for getting drunk and then insult Two-Bit, Johnny, and Ponyboy by calling them bums. Two-Bit flicks his switchblade open and hands Ponyboy a broken bottle to threaten the Socs. Before the girls get into the car with their boyfriends, Ponyboy pulls Cherry aside and tells her that he could never cut anyone. Cherry tells Pony that they need to get going and if she ever sees him in school and doesn't say "hi," it's not personal. Cherry then says that she could fall in love with Dallas Winston and hops in the car to leave.
