Why are they here?

We need to get into WICKED.

Gally said you can get us

through the walls.

Gally should know better

than to make promises

that he can't keep.

Besides, that wall

is only half your problem.

Getting inside WICKED

is impossible.

There might be a way now.

But it doesn't work

without Thomas.

Is that so?

Do you know what I am...

Thomas?

I am a businessman.

Which means that I don't

take unnecessary risks.

Why should I trust you?

'Cause I can help you.

You see, if you can get me

through those walls...

I can get you what you need.

What is it

that you think I need?

Time.

Every last drop.

Is that what I need?

WICKED has something

we both want.

I'll tell you what.

Two can go for now.

The rest stay down here

with me.

Just a little insurance

to make sure

you find your way back.

We have a deal?

Gally, show him the way.

Be careful, Thomas.

Gally, take care of these two.

Yeah.

This is gross.

Jesus.

Yeah, this is great.

Stay with me.

We got a ways to go.

We're ready.

Shai?

Hi, Miss Teresa.

Hi.

Hey.

How are you feeling?

Okay.

Is that gonna make me better?

I hope so.

Do you remember the story

you were telling me?

About the house

you grew up in?

I don't remember.

The one by the lake?

It burns.

I know, I know.

There we go. All done.

You're so brave.

Oh,

that is incredible.

How soon can you administer

to the infected?

You show a lot of compassion

for someone who just

opened fire on a crowd.

You told me to do my job.

I had a shot. I took it.

And missed, apparently.

The patrols

never found a body.

Thomas is still out there.

What about her?

Does she know?

No.

She can't.

I need her to stay focused.

Elevate security levels

throughout the city.

I'm counting on you

to handle this, Janson.

Red zone,

departing the station

in five minutes.

Thank you.

This is a long way

from the Glade.

Fifteen

minutes to mandatory curfew.

Please proceed home

in an orderly fashion.

Remember,

this is for your safety.

Thank you for your compliance.

Yeah, we better

get off these streets.

And I know it's hard, but act

like you've seen it before.

They've definitely

upped security.

I'm guessing you shanks have

something to do with that.

All right,

let's get outta here.

All right, Newt, you're up.

I got it.

There it is.

If WICKED's got Minho,

that's where

they'll be keeping him.

Lawrence has been trying

to find a way in for years.

Place is crawling

with soldiers.

They got

surveillance everywhere.

Scanners on every floor.

Sounds like a bloody fortress.

Yeah, I thought you said

you had a way in.

I might.

You might?

What the hell

do you mean "might"?

Take a look.

I said I had a way in.

I didn't say

you were gonna like it.

No. There's gotta be

another way.

Like what?

You've seen the building.

She is our only way in.

You really think

she's gonna help us?

I don't plan on

asking for her permission.

Am I missing something here?

This is the same girl

who betrayed us, correct?

Same dick?

I like her.

What's going on?

What, are you afraid

your little girlfriend's

gonna get hurt?

Hmm?

Because this has

obviously never been

just about rescuing Minho.

Has it?

Wait, what are you

talking about?

Teresa.

She's the only reason

that Minho's even missing

in the first place.

Now we finally have an

opportunity to get him back.

And what? You don't want to

because of her?

Because deep down inside

you still care about her,

don't you?

Just admit it.

- Newt, I...

- Don't lie to me!

Don't lie to me!

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Sorry about that. Back there.

I guess I can't

hide this anymore.

Why didn't you tell me?

Didn't think it would

make any difference.

All I know is that WICKED

must have put me

in that maze for a reason.

Maybe it was literally

just so they could tell

the difference

between immunes like you

and people like me.

You know we can

still fix this, Newt.

Okay? We can.

Don't worry about me.

This is about Minho.

Now he needs us.

So if there is even

the slightest chance

that we can save him,

we can get him out of there,

then we have to take that.

No matter what the cost.

Okay. I hear you.

Let's get him up.

Minho.

Can you hear me?

There's a little girl here.

Her name is Shai Lun.

She's been infected

for three weeks now.

But, Minho,

you're going to save her.

And you can save

so many others.

Everything we're doing here,

it's working.

Do you understand?

That's why

this is so important.

I just wanted you to know.

Teresa.

Minho?

Minho?

You're a traitor!

We trusted you!

- Get off!

- Hey, let her go!

Get off me! Get off me!

I'll kill you! You traitor!

You killed them all!

Teresa, they need you

in the med lab.

It sounds serious.

I'm sorry, Teresa.

It's not your fault.

You did everything you could.

This is an alert.

Curfew is now in effect.

Anyone caught

in violation of curfew

will be subject

to immediate deportation.

Thomas?

Thomas.

Hey, Teresa.

You shouldn't be here.

If Janson finds out

you're here...

I'm not staying.

It's just, uh...

I had to see you.

I have to ask you something.

Do you regret it?

What you did to us?

Sometimes.

But I did

what I thought was right.

I'd do it again.

Good.

Taking

the edge off, I see.

Beautiful, isn't it?

Yes.

- It's a lovely city.

- Hmm.

The walls.

It's amazing what people

can accomplish

when their survival's

at stake.

Squeeze them hard enough,

there's nothing they can't do.

No line they won't cross.

You've had a bit of a setback.

It's nothing

we're not used to.

Not this time.

The virus is airborne.

It's inside the walls.

That serum

was our last chance.

Anyone not already infected

will be inside of a month.

Okay.

We can handle this.

We just need to evacuate

essential personnel,

set up at another safe zone

farther north.

We've still got 28 immunes

right inside this building.

We can find more.

You would.

You'd hunt every last

one of them down

till there was no one left.

In spite of everything

we've done to them,

everything we've put

them through.

At least we gave

them the tools

they'll need to survive.

Maybe they'll succeed

where we've failed.

Are you really telling me

that you're giving up?

After everything?

It's not about

giving up, Janson.

It's about knowing

when you've lost.

Gally?

Here's how this is gonna go.

We're gonna ask you

some questions,

and you're gonna tell us

exactly what we need to know.

We'll start off simple.

Where's Minho?

You guys don't

seriously think...

Don't look at him.

Why are you looking at him?

Look at me.

He's not gonna help you.

Now, we know you have Minho

in the building.

Where?

He's with the others

in holding.

Sublevel three.

How many others?

I can make that work.

No.

No, you guys don't understand.

The whole level's restricted.

You can't get in

without a thumbprint ID.

That's why you're

gonna come with us.

Well, I don't know.

We don't necessarily need her.
