The Death Cure

Thomas dreams once more. Teresa is there. “Thomas is there but isn’t there. He doesn’t remember the details of what happened, but he knows his insides feel like rot and filth. He and Teresa had done something terrible, but his dreaming self can’t quite grasp what it was. A ghastly thing that is no less repulsive because they were told to do it by the people they did it to” (135). Dreaming Thomas tries to understand the thoughts of the younger Thomas in the dream. “It’s all there for the taking. For the remembering. But then he changes his mind, turns his back on it all. The past is the past. There is only the future now” (135).

He wakes up. He and Minho are fixed. Brenda, Jorge, and Hans come in, and Hans says goodbye to Thomas. Brenda asks Thomas what is next, and he says they have to find the others and join Gally and the Right Arm to stop WICKED.

They go to a coffee shop for some food. When they walk in, Thomas notices a man near the door who is staring across the café.
