When the operation is completed, Brenda, Jorge, Minho, and Thomas go into a coffee shop to eat. As Thomas is held down by the others, Hans manages to perform an operation on Thomas, removing the implant in his brain that allows him to telepathically talk with Teresa and Aris and that lets WICKED monitor where he is. While they are on their trip, a mysterious man hands them a note which reveals an address where they meet up with Gally, a previous Glader who tried to kill Thomas, but killed Chuck instead, and also a member of the Right Arm, an underground organization dedicated to destroying WICKED.Īfter which, at Hans', WICKED finds a way to control Thomas with the implant still in his brain, to kill Hans and prevent him from removing the implant in Thomas's brain. Upon arriving at Denver, Newt is left behind in the Berg as he is the only one who is not immune to the Flare. The Swipe allows WICKED to control them, therefore they have to remove them as soon as possible. They pretend to be people looking for a job when they are there to see Hans, a former WICKED neurologist who has escaped, to get him to help them remove the Swipe in Minho and Thomas' brains. They fly to Denver, where Teresa and the others have escaped to. Although Brenda empathizes with Thomas, she reasons that Teresa's reason behind her betrayal was that she did it because they threatened to kill him if she didn't do what they wanted, and by doing so, she saved his life. Thomas tells her about Chuck's death and Teresa's betrayal against him and uses them as the two main reasons why he hates WICKED they used them, they constantly lied to them, and they never bear the consequences, instead always claiming it's for the greater good. After their escape, Brenda tells Thomas, after his realization that she is a WICKED employee, (He had learned this upon first seeing her in the facility and was dismayed to learn this) However, she says only joined WICKED for survival reasons, as she agrees with Janson that the alternative is a literal death sentence with more cranks popping up all the time. Jorge manages to get all of them into the air, but both Thomas and Brenda are struck by Launcher grenades. Some guards break into the hangar, wielding Launchers (which fire electrical stun grenades), and pistols. Jorge reveals himself to be a skilled pilot, and that Teresa, Aris, Frypan, and the other test subjects had knocked him out and have escaped on one of the other 3 Bergs. Shortly after that, Thomas, Minho, Newt, and Brenda escape onto a Berg, a massive airship while under fire from WICKED guards. Before leaving, Newt gives Thomas a note, telling him that he must not read it until the time is right. He had attacked Rat Man before, and, in the weapons depot, starts a petty argument with Minho, resulting in a brawl. The gang raids the armoury and gather guns and ammunition. They discover the test subjects who received their memories were also able to escape, thinking that the other Gladers had abandoned them (it is revealed later on that the other Gladers had instead thought that they had already escaped before them). Luckily, Brenda, who manages to convince him to let her help sedate Thomas, helps them escape before they are given their memories back. Even though Minho, Newt, and Thomas say no to it, they are eventually forced to get their memories back the next day, as Janson (or Rat Man) thinks that they would be of no help to finding the cure without their memories. As a result, while everyone gets their memories back, Newt, Minho, and Thomas are kept in confinement under the watch of guards and more cameras. Janson then gives the Gladers a chance to get their memories back and everyone, except for Newt, Minho, and Thomas, agree to get their memories restored, especially Teresa, who still believes "WICKED is good". He also warns them that many people in the outside world hate them because of their unnatural resistance to the Flare and that if they escape they will most likely be in more danger. Janson then announces that some people, including Newt, are not immune to the Flare. He is then released, and Assistant Director Janson (aka "Rat Man") reveals to him and the other subjects (including Group B) that there is no cure for the Flare but that most of the Gladers and Group B are immune. But the truth might be what ends it all.Īfter the events in The Scorch Trials, Thomas is locked up in solitary confinement for four weeks. And it's enough to prove that he can't believe a word of what they say. What WICKED doesn't know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. The trials are complete, after one final test. WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends-the Gladers.
