pony is really close to his older brother soda then he is to his oldest brother darry. He feels he can talk to soda about anything and not get a harsh or mean comment thrown back at him. At the beginning of the book Darry and Pony were not at all close, but by the end of the book they get kind of close, but not to close like what pony is with soda.
The Judge asked everyone but Pony about the death of Bob and stuff like that. He asked Pony if he liked school, what his grades were and if he like living with Darry. The judge dismissed the case and Soda and Pony got to live with Darry

If you are asking about the time Darry reacted when Ponyboy came home after falling asleep in the empty lot. Then your answer is that Darry acted out of fear and anger. He shoved Ponyboy, thus making Ponyboy flee. If you are asking about the time he came home after the rumble and from the hospital. Then Darry acted out in concern because he saw from Ponyboy's expression that something bad had happened.
