As they approached Rawhampton Zoe thought that it was a mess with “derelict” houses and “cracks” in the road with “weeds” Poking through.
Ned stops the car outside the “Bluemoon” club where Zoe tries her first “lobotomiser”.
Zoe had been looking at Daz all evening and then quickly turning around when she saw him look at her.
Zoe nearly got herself killed because of Larry. He saw this chippie girl and “started making signs for her to come over” to join him but the girl just smiled, a while later he shouted at the top of his voice “come on over honey- you know your wasted on that trash”. A fight started and Daz stepped in to help and he got them out of the club.
Zoe kept trying to hatch plans on how she could get to see Daz again.
When she was in her “modern history” class she was looking out the window wishing she was walking “hand in hand” with Daz.
Her teacher Miss Moncrieff was talking about the “Franchise bill” that was introduced so that people who contributed less to society where unable to vote, so that meant that chippies lost their right to vote.
Miss Moncrieff made Zoe write out “forty five” lines each line for each minute she wasted in class.
She did it and at the bottom of the last sheet of paper she scrawled “brainwashing”.
After she handed it in people started calling her chippie lover and no one would speak to her.
After “DS” visited Zoe about the “brainwashing” and the constant arguments with her father she decided to run away.
Zoe manages to find herself in the arms of the man she “loves” but she had to leave her family behind.
The results of Zoes rebellion are a bit drastic and she begins to wonder “have I done the right thing”.
Robert Swindell writes from a strange angle about “Daz 4 Zoe” and it is clear that he doesn’t believe that there should be a divided society.
He uses this strongly in Zoes rebellion when she argues with her teacher over the “franchise bill”
Daz’s life is very different to Zoes, he lives in Rawhampton which has “streets” that are “cracked” and “broken”. Chippies “live in squalor housing” and in “derelict inner cities” and have “poor schools”.
Daz lives in the “tallest” apartment block with his mother. The apartment had “cement” floors and the walls where once “yellow” before the damp had set in. In the lounge were bits of carpet “scattered” over the floor.
Daz first met Zoe in the “blue moon” club where Daz’s friend “Mick” had arranged for him to meet “Cal” who is the leader of “Dred”. Daz wants to join “Dred” because his brother “Del” was in “Dred” and he got killed by the “DS” so Daz wanted to join to get revenge.
When Cal walked in he was a “short” man with “glasses” and he must have seen Daz keep looking at Zoe because after he told Daz to follow him in to the toilet, he said straight out “who’s the girl”.
When the fight broke out because of Larry, Daz stepped in to help and he got them out of the club safe. Then people started calling him “subbie lover” and his friend Mick wasn’t very happy because he had pulled a lot of strings to get Cal to see Daz.
Daz kept thinking about Zoe so he got hold of these “overalls” that chippies have to wear if they work in Silverdale. He took his “doodies” and a ball of twine and set off for the tunnel that “dred” use to get into Silverdale. Daz knew about he tunnel from a friend of “Dels” his name was “Clint” he showed him the tunnel.
As Daz emerged from the tunnel he saw Zoe and they were “clinging” together.
After Daz left Zoe from the tunnel, he went home and to the “tucker” stamps and went down to the “blue moon” when he over heard someone saying about “Wentworths” getting kicked out of Silverdale and that they would bring lots of “good Stuff”.
Daz realises that these guys are probably going to kill the “Wentworths” for some “Peanuts” or anything else they’ve got that chippies can sell so he goes home and gets “Dels gun” and follows the men to somewhere that was half way between “Silverdale and town”.
Daz followed them but they didn’t hear him because they were taking loudly, when they stopped Daz hid behind a wall and waited for the “Wentworths" to come.
Then Daz picked up “Dels gun” and he shoots it at the guy in front of him, the guys “face hit the wall in front of him”. As Daz fired the gun the other guy shouted “Pete wot ya shootin at?” when Pete didn’t answer the other guy ran “souf lyke the clappers”.
When Daz got home his mother found that there were no food stamps so she sent him out to get some food. So Daz took “Dels gun” and traded it to this guy for “hardloaf bred” and “lengf ov sossidge”
Later Daz found out that “Cal” is after him and he knows that it was him who shot Pete. When “cal” caught up with him he was about to blow Daz’s kneecap off when “DS” shot cal and then Daz and Zoe ran.
When Daz and Zoe left Rawhampton they ran out of the “inner citie” in to the “woods” they were “intent on putting as much distance between themselves and the city”.
Daz and Zoe were going to the Wentworths house which Paul Wentworth had built in case anything happened when he was in “FAIR”
Mr James rebelled by hiding Zoe in the attic of the school. When the “DS” came round to the school to see him, he lied to them and told them that he didn’t know where Zoe was.
Mr James is in “fair” that’s why he helped Zoe and delivered the letter that her Grandmother wrote with the directions on, on how to get to the Wentworth place.
Mr James lives in Silverdale and works in Rawhampton. He teaches the chippie kids because he must believe that even the poor kids deserve to get an education and it’s not their fault that they don’t have enough money to live in Silverdale.
Zoe often goes to visit her grandmother, she is the only one who knows what Zoe is going through because she told Zoe that she was “sixteen” and working in a “music shop” in Rawhampton city centre, when a young man by the name of “Gordon Payne” walked in.
Even though her grandmother is “one hundred and four” she has never forgotten his name.
Zoe finds out that her grandmother is “FAIR” and that she “founded” the “unit” after she originally thought that Mr Wentworth was the leader of fair.
This comes a shock to Zoe because she start to think of her Grandmother sweet old face on a wanted poster.
Zoe’s Grandmother often talked to Zoe about how Rawhampton used to be with out the “light and fences and guards” and Zoe finds it hard to imagine it with crowds of people, shops and beautiful scenery.
Zoes Nan lives in the senior citizens apartment block in another part of Silverdale, the apartments were built by Paul Wentworth.
Mr Wentworth rebelled by being in “fair” because he was so successful at being an estate agent no body would have even dreamt of him being in “fair”.
When “DS” found out he was in “Fair” they made him and his family move out of Silverdale into Rawhampton and become chippies.
With the Wentworths being involved in “fair” it meant that they supported chippies and didn’t think that it was fair in the way that they were being treated.
