The 5th Wave Chapter 80 Summary

  • Cassie's still scooting through the ductwork. The siren's so loud she can barely think straight.
  • A piece of luck: she runs into the armory. She kicks in the grate and drops into the room.
  • First, she puts together a costume, trading in her jumpsuit for fatigues. Then she loads up on guns. Lots and lots of guns.
  • Cassie's feeling a little more confident. She knows that Evan's in the building somewhere.
  • Dressed as a soldier, she marches out into the hall. Almost immediately a couple of bombs go off.
  • She hears screams, and tries to follow them down the corridor. Cassie has found the kids' room.
  • On her way, she's questioned by a real (alien) soldier. She shoots him in the head and drags him into a different corridor.
  • Now Cassie's in the room of kids, searching for Sammy.
  • Instead, Sammy finds her. It's a super sweet family reunion.
