Ponyboy and johnny saved some kids from a burning church where they made the accident of alighting the fire with a cigarette butt. Ponyboy only had dirt around his face but johnny got a plank collapse on him and screwed up his spine. he died.
The person that runs into the church first is Ponyboy, however, he is closely followed by Johnny. It doesn't make Pony a better person. In fact, personally, I like Johnny better!
