The Scorch Trials Chapter 48

By James Dashner

Chapter 48

It turns out that the girls don't know much about WICKED, so Thomas feels like he has some kind of upper hand.
Thomas tells the girls that he thinks the objective of them killing him is just another Variable.He also suggests that WICKED is testing their ability to think rationally.
Or, Harriet says, mayble the girls are being tested to see if they have the guts to kill Thomas. Hmm.
Anyway, the girls disperse, and Harriet decides to talk it over with Teresa—much to Thomas's dismay, as Teresa scares him to death now.
Thomas sees Teresa and Harriet get into some kind of heated debate, after which Teresa storms off.
Harriet cuts Thomas free and tells him that the girls all think he's right about the Variable.
But Teresa is seriously mad at Thomas. She wants him dead.
