The Rat Man begins listing those who are not immune. When Thomas hears Newt’s name called, he becomes upset and deaf to the other names called. He realizes how important Newt is to him. After the Rat Man completes the list, he explains how the procedures will work: a mask will send wires into the patient’s ear canals, which will remove the equipment in their brains that is causing the memory loss. He further explains that there are many rooms similar to the one they are standing in and that they will be split into groups.
The Rat Man leaves the room to allow them to decide whether they want their memories back or not. Thomas, Minho, Newt, and Frypan discuss the options along with Teresa, who goes to ask Aris his opinion as well. Teresa believes the right option is to accept the procedure, but no one trusts her or WICKED. After Teresa and Aris vote for the procedure, Thomas and the boys decide against it. Thomas notices Teresa appears to have expected him to choose her side.
Thomas, Minho, Newt, and Frypan agree to work together to fight their way out of the place the first chance they get.
