A Request for Understanding and Conversation
Janson Thomas, thank you for seeing me. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I was just hoping we– might get a moment to chat in private, away from the others. Well– I won't take up too much of your time. I really only have one question: What do you remember about WCKD? You're not in trouble. We're just having a conversation. I'm just trying to understand.
The Pursuit of a Cure at Any Cost
Ava Paige She's right. This is all just a means to an end. You used to understand that, Thomas. No matter what you think of me, I am not a monster. I'm a doctor. I swore an oath to find a cure! No matter the cost. I just need more time.
Remembering Those We've Lost
Newt I wish Alby could've seen all this.
Thomas And Winston. And Chuck.
Newt He'd be proud of you, you know, Tommy.
Trust and loyalty in difficult times
Newt Thomas, listen to me. I've known Minho for– well, as long as I can remember. So if there is any way we could help him, trust me, I would be up there standing next to you. This, what you're talking about– is impossible.
Restricted Access and Seeking Connection
Guard #1 Whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on. You weren't called.
Thomas Yeah, I know. I'm just gonna be a second.
Guard #1 This is a restricted area, kid.
Thomas Look, I just wanna see my friend. Can you let me through?
[impatient]
Guard #1 Get your ass back in that chair.
[jabs his finger into Thomas's chest]
Guard #1 Hey! Back off!
[shoves Thomas away]
Thomas WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, MAN?! WHAT THE HELL, HUH?! WHY WON'T YOU LET ME SEE HER?!
[aggressively shoves the guard; Newt and the Gladers run over to hold him back]
Guard #1 Back off! You need to control your friend.
[shoves Thomas again; to the Gladers]
Janson What's happening here? Thomas, I thought we could trust each other. You know we're on the same side.
[running over]
Thomas Are we?
Janson Get them to their bunks.
[smiles sadistically]
Longing for the Past in Uncertain Times
Frypan I never thought I'd say it– I miss the Glade.
Loyalty and Betrayal in WCKD's Shadow
Janson Thomas, thank you for seeing me. Sorry for the inconvenience; I was just hoping we could have a few moments to chat in private, away from the others. Well, I won't take up too much of your time. I may only have one question. What do you remember about WCKD? You're not in any trouble; we're just having a conversation. I'm just trying to understand.
Thomas Understand what?
Janson Whose side are you on?
Thomas I remember I used to work for WCKD. I remember that they sent me into the Maze. I remember watching my friends die in front of me. I'm on their side.
Uncertainty About Escape from the Facility
Aris I don't know. This is as far as I've ever gotten. The vents don't even go into that section, but once they go through that door– they don't come back out. I don't think anybody ever really leaves this place.
Questioning a Plan After a Speech
Vince Well, that's a good speech, kid. So what's your plan?
Determined to Stop WCKD's Actions
Thomas Maybe– but I know what I'm supposed to do now. It's not just about Minho, it's about all of us. It's about everyone WCKD's ever taken, everyone they will take. They'll never stop. They'll never stop, so I'm gonna stop them. I'm gonna kill Ava Paige.
Winston's Plea for Responsibility
Winston Thomas– take care of them.
[Last words]
Betrayal and Manipulation in a Dystopian World
Marcus WCKD wants all the Immunes they can get. I help provide that for them. So I lure the kids in, they get drunk, they have a good time. And then– later, WCKD comes in– they separate the wheat from the chaff.
Teresa's Evolved Perspective on the Greater Good
Janson Teresa's always had an evolved appreciation of the greater good. Once we restored her memories– it was only a matter of time.
Jorge's Belief in Safe Haven's Promise
Brenda Trust me, it's not my idea. Jorge seems to think you guys are our ticket to the Safe Haven. You know, paradise. Safe from the sun, free of infection. Supposedly, the Right Arm's been taking kids there for years. Immunes, anyway.
['''Thomas:''' The what?]
Desire for Revenge in the Scorch Trials
Harriet I have to admit– I'd like some revenge.
A Clear Conscience Amidst Chaos
Mary At least my conscience is clear.
[Last words]
Questions of Origin, Destination, and Profit
Jorge Three questions: Where did you come from? Where are you going? How can I profit?
Missing Person Inquiry in The Scorch Trials
Jorge Where's Bertha?
Marcus Not Bertha.
[Realizes that they are going to take his car]
Conflict Over Survival in the Scorch
Thomas Open this door, Janson!
Janson You really don't want me to.
Thomas OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR!
Janson Listen to me! I'm trying to save your life! The Maze was one thing, but you kids wouldn't last one day out in the Scorch. If the elements don't kill you, the Cranks will. Thomas, you have to believe me. I only want what's best for you.
Thomas Yeah, lemme guess– WCKD is good?
The Search for a Cure Explained
Mary You know, at first, we had the best intentions: Find a cure, save the world. It was clear you kids were the key, because you were immune. But why? Eventually, we found an answer. An enzyme produced by the brains of the immune. Once separated from the bloodstream, it can serve as a powerful agent to slow the spread of the virus.
Skepticism Towards Thomas's Leadership Plan
Minho Good plan, Thomas. "Just hear what the man has to say." Really working out for us.
The Impact of Suffering and Memory
Teresa I remember mine. She was a beautiful woman. Everybody loved her. And before WCKD, she was all I had. When she got sick– I didn't know what to do. I just kept her locked up, hidden. I thought she'd get better. Every night, she'd make these awful sounds, like screaming. And then, one night– she just stopped. She was finally quiet. I went down to her room– and there was blood everywhere. But she was just sat there, calm. She said she was feeling better. The visions were gone. She'd taken care of them. She took her eyes out, Thomas. There are millions of people suffering out there. Millions of stories, just like mine. We can't turn our backs on them. I won't.
Feeling of Isolation in Adversity
Jorge Do you ever get the feeling the whole world's against you?
Urgent Changes in Experiment Protocols
Janson Good evening, Dr. Paige. Lovely to see you again. Although, I admit, I-I wasn't expecting to hear from you quite so soon.
Dr. Ava Paige Change in plans, Janson. I'll be arriving a little sooner than expected; first thing tomorrow.
Janson Oh, we'll be delighted to have you. I think you'll be pleased with the progress we've made. As you can see, early results have been extremely promising. Whatever it is you've been doing to them in there, it's working.
Dr. Ava Paige Not well enough. I've just received Board approval. I want all of the remaining subjects sedated and prepped for harvest by the time I arrive.
Janson Dr. Paige, we're going as fast as we can. We are still running tests–
Dr. Ava Paige Try something faster. Until I can guarantee their security, this is the best plan.
Janson Ma'am, security is my job; we're on 24-hour lockdown here. I can assure you, the assets are secure.
Dr. Ava Paige Have you found the Right Arm?
Janson Not yet. We've tracked them as far as the mountains–
Dr. Ava Paige So they're still out there. And they've already hit two of our installations. They want these kids as badly as we do. And I cannot– I cannot afford another loss. Not now, when I'm so close to a cure. If you are not up to the task, I will find someone who is.
Janson That won't be necessary. May I suggest we start with the most recent arrivals–
Dr. Ava Paige Just get it done. Janson. I don't want them to feel any pain.
[Janson starts to leave]
Janson They won't feel a thing.
A Plan for Survival and Renewal
Vince Well, we pick up what's left of us. We stick to the plan. We get you kids to the Safe Haven. Then we start over, I guess.
New Arrivals Every Night in Scorch Trials
Aris They bring in new ones every night like clockwork.
A Warning About Survival in the Scorch
Janson Listen to me! I'm trying to save your life. The Maze is one thing, but you kids wouldn't last one day out in the Scorch. If the elements don't kill you, the Cranks will. Thomas, you have to believe me. I only want what's best for you.
