They were drowning you, Pony. They might have killed you.'"

When Ponyboy was in danger, Johnny killed Bob so that he could live. In past confrontations with Socs, Johnny only froze and got nervous, so him killing Bob was based on his friendship with Ponyboy.]]> 2019-03-14 18:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478262 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478286 Before Bob's death, Cherry was friends with the greasers, but wouldn't openly associate with or help them. Afterwards, due to her boyfriend's death, and Ponyboy and Johnny being charged with murder, she finally helps them by testifying in their favor, and becoming a spy for the greasers.]]> 2019-03-14 18:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478286 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478326 2019-03-14 18:12:25 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478326 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478387 2019-03-14 18:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478387 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478421 "I thought of Soda and Steve. What if one of the saw the other killed? Would that make them stop fighting? No, I thought, maybe it would make Soda stop, but not Steve. He'd go on hating and fighting. Maybe that was what Bob would have done if it had been Randy instead of him."

Before Bob's death, Randy enjoyed fighting like all the other Socs, but afterwards, Randy's entire view on fighting changed, so much so that he wanted to leave town. He would not have done this if Bob weren't killed.]]> 2019-03-14 18:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478421 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478734 "Someone should tell their side of the story, and maybe people would understand then and wouldn't be so quick to judge a boy by the amount of hair oil he wore"

This is an example of friendship on Johnny's part, and on Ponyboy. Before Ponyboy read the note from Johnny, he wasn't doing his work, and was doing poorly in school. Afterwards, he finally started his assignment. He also wanted to tell Johhny and Dally's side of the story. ]]> 2019-03-14 18:13:12 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341478734 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341884027 S. E. Hinton develops the theme of friendship in The Outsiders through the sacrifices and actions of the characters. Johnny's main act of friendship towards Ponyboy was saving him by killing Bob. "'I had to. They were drowning you, Pony. They might have killed you.'" If not for Johnny, Ponyboy would have died. Cherry shows friendship by testifying in favor of Johnny and Ponyboy, and by becoming a spy for the greasers. At the end of the novel,Dally's friendship and care towards Johnny caused him to kill himself when Johnny died. ]]> 2019-03-15 18:08:39 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341884027 abigailikeler1 https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341886245 2019-03-15 18:13:32 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailikeler1/4nc8qsi5863i/wish/341886245
