Response Exemplar: Inferencing
Unlike the other Greasers, who are real brothers, I think
Johnny and Dally have a special friendship.
I know Johnny comes from an abusive family, is neglected, and is quite
anxious. Dally is cold, has a “savage
defiance” towards any law, and is angry at the world. He does, however, have a soft spot for Johnny. Dally actually cares about his well-being and
is angered about him being hurt, both at home and on the streets, and wants to
stand up for him and protect him – this seems out of character for Dally because
it seems he only cares about himself.
Johnny respects and idolizes Dally because he marches to the beat of his
own drum. He’s probably the only one
that sees some kind of good in Dally that the rest of world wouldn’t even
imagine. For these reasons, I feel they
share a special bond.
