In chapter one we are introduced to our narrator, Ponyboy. Ponyboy is raised by his two older brothers Darry and Soda. They’re all apart of a gang called the “greasers” which is joined by Dally, Johnny, Two-bit, and Steve. There is another group called “ socs” which stands for socials, and everyone in that group is very wealthy.

He tells us that Steve is "cocky and smart" ( Hinton 9). Two-Bit can 't stop joking around and goes to school for "kicks" (Hinton 10) rather than to learn.

The opening scene of the film portrays Mazur in a bowling alley during a drug bust. The operation was going smoothly until the wire taped to his chest malfunctioned and started to burn right through his flesh, potentially being able to compromise the entire operation. Cranston was given the opportunity for early retirement with full benefits but was determined to keep fighting against the war on drugs, trafficking, and money laundering.
