Control your friend!

What's happening here?

Thomas?

I thought we could trust each other.

You know we're all

on the same team here.

Are we?

Get them to their bunks.

Get your asses in there! All of you!

What the hell was that about?

You didn't really think

they were just gonna let you through?

Nah, of course I didn't.

I'm gonna find out

what's on the other side of that door.

Right.

Newt, they're hiding something. Okay?

These people are not

who they say they are.

No, Thomas, you don't know that!

The only thing that we do know

is that they helped rescue us from WICKED.

They gave us new clothes. They gave us food.

They gave us a proper bed.

Some of us haven't had that

in a long time.

Yeah, but...

Some of us a lot longer than others.

Hey, Thomas.

What the...

You got it, didn't you?

Yeah. Let's go.

All right, look, maybe you guys are right.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid.

But I got to find out for sure.

Just cover for me.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

What the hell?

Teresa?

It's Rachel.

They took her the first night.

I told her it was going to be okay.

You sure this can't wait?

She was very specific, sir.

She wanted to speak with you personally.

As if I don't have enough to deal with.

Just bear with me. I'm getting

some interference from the storm.

Come on. It's good enough.

Make the connection.

Good evening, Doctor Paige.

Lovely to see you again.

Although I admit...

I wasn't expecting to hear from you

quite so soon.

Change of plans, Janson.

I'll be arriving a little sooner

than expected. First thing tomorrow.

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.

Not well enough.

I just received board approval.

I want all the remaining subjects sedated

and prepped for harvest by the time I arrive.

Doctor Paige, we are going

as fast as we can.

We are still running tests...

Try something faster.

Until I can guarantee their security,

this is the best plan.

Ma'am, security is my job.

We're on 24 hour lockdown here.

I am assuring you...

the assets are secure.

Have you found the Right Arm?

Not yet.

We tracked them as far as the mountains.

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 am so close to a cure.

If you are not up to the task,

I will find someone who is.

That won't be necessary.

Might I suggest we start

with the most recent arrivals.

Just get it done.

Janson.

I don't want them to feel any pain.

They won't feel a thing.

Thomas!

We gotta go.

We gotta go right now.

- What the hell are you talking about?

- What do you mean, "We gotta go?"

They're coming. Come on. We gotta go.

They're coming for us.

- Paige. She's still alive.

- What happened in there?

Aris, what happened?

Thomas, can you just calm down

and talk to us.

- She's still alive.

- Who's she? Teresa?

Ava.

Ava?

Will you just turn around and talk to us?

It's WICKED!

It's still WICKED.

It's always been WICKED.

Thomas.

What did you see?

Come on, come on.

Okay, let's go.

You guys go ahead.

There's something I gotta do.

What are you talking about?

Trust me, it's important. You guys wanna

get outta here, right? Just go.

I'll go with him.

Okay, Winston, go! Go! Come on.

You sure we can trust this kid?

You don't want to know

where we'd be without him.

What are you kids doing out?

I want this place locked down.

Call everyone in.

No one leaves until

everyone's accounted for.

Tell me you've got eyes on them.

Still looking, still looking.

Come on, come on, come on.

There.

Who is that?

Crawford. Going after the girl.

Get everyone to the med wing.

Yes, sir.

I want them alive.

Freeze!

Stay where you are!

- Why are they shooting at us?

- I've spotted them!

- They're in L-3!

- Minho!

- I'm in pursuit!

- What the hell are you doing?

Minho!

Sh*t, Minho!

Okay. Let's go. Come on. Let's go.

Dr. Crawford, are you here to...

Wait, wait. Okay, okay.

Where is she? Where is she!

Get over!

Get down!

- Teresa.

- Get down!

- Okay, hands, give me your hands!

- Just do what he says.

What did they do to you?

Thomas?

Give me your hands!

You're never gonna get away with this.

What's going on?

We gotta leave right now.

Come on.

Guys? They're coming! Where do we go?

Frypan! Move!

Get back! Get back!

They've got the door barricaded.

Send backup!

Okay, we gotta get outta here!

Where do we go?

Push!

Everyone stand back!

Come on!

Newt! Help, help!

Ready?

Go, go, go!

Get out of the way!

Come on, come on!

- Come on, come on!

- Get someone on the other side!

Watch your feet!

- Hurry! Let's go!

- Come on, move! Move! Move!

Thomas!

Let's go!

Stay behind me!

Sh*t. Okay, come on!

Stop!

There it is! There it is!

Converge on level 3.

All R-16 personnel...

non-lethal force only.

Sh*t. Come on!

No, no, no!

Thomas!

Open this door, Janson!

You really don't want me to.

Open the damn door!

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.

Yeah, let me guess. WICKED is good?

You're not getting through

that door, Thomas.

Hey, guys.

Come on!

Thomas! Come on! Let's go!

Go, go. Stop him!

Shut the main vault door!

- No!

- Thomas?

Come on, Thomas! Come on!

- Move! Move!

- Thomas, what's going on?

Come on.

You little sh*t.

Come on, Thomas. Let's go. Come on!

Come on. Keep moving!

Come on. Come on!

Come on, come on!

Fan out!

All right, come on. Keep going!

Sh*t.

Come on, go! Go!

We'll lose them in the storm!

Notify on visual.

Copy that.

Standby, Two.

Be on my six.

Everybody, go, go, go.

Stay low. Stay low!

Teresa, hang on. Stay together!

I think we lost them!

Keep going, guys. Let's go.

Watch out! Where are we even going?

Come on, Aris. Let's go. Come on!

Over here!

Come on!

Teresa, wait!

No, don't go in there!

Get down here!

- Okay, come on!

- Get inside!

Come on, we should go.

Aris, get in!

Let's go, Fry.

Can you hold onto this?

Where the hell are we?

We gotta go.

- No. Thomas, stop!

- We gotta keep moving.

Tell me what's going on.

It's WICKED.

It's WICKED. They lied to us.

We never escaped.

Me and Aris, we found bodies.

Too many to count.
