- I can't reach!

Come on!

Brenda!

Got you.

We can get down here. Come on.

Hey, you hear that?

You all right?

Sh*t.

Brenda...

Yeah, yeah. I know.

Let's just go find Marcus.

Okay.

Try to blend in.

Are you sure this is the place?

You here for the party?

No.

We're looking for Marcus.

This is his place, isn't it?

This is my place.

Are you Marcus?

Marcus doesn't live here anymore.

Do you know where we can find him?

Sure, sure. He's over in Zone B.

Okay. What's Zone B?

It's where they burn the bodies.

Okay, look, has anyone else been

by here...

looking for him?

Group of kids around our age?

They had a girl with them.

Dark hair.

You know...

I think they might be inside.

Here.

Drink this.

What is it?

The price of admission.

Drink it!

Your turn.

All right.

You two, enjoy the party.

Maybe we should split up.

See if we can find the others.

Hey.

Don't drink anything else.

That was fun!

What?

Brenda?

They're not here.

Okay, well... we should keep looking.

Why?

We couldn't find the Right Arm anyway.

Not without Marcus.

Your friends are gone.

It's over.

It's just us now.

Just try and relax.

Let go.

How?

Like this.

What?

You're not her.

Brenda.

Thomas.

Hey.

Hey. Did anyone see you come here?

No, what are you talking about?

We don't have a lot of time.

Thomas, what's wrong?

I just had to see you...

and just try to explain things before...

Oh, no.

Thomas!

Just listen to me, okay?

Whatever they tell you about me, whatever they say,

I just need you to know I had to do it.

Okay?

What did you do?

I just couldn't keep watching them die.

Over here!

Come on.

No!

I'm sorry.

Thomas!

Hey, you're okay.

Hi.

We have to stop meeting like this.

Welcome back, you ugly shank.

I suggest that you talk!

You son of a b*tch!

Damn it!

I'm sorry...

you're going to have to leave my house.

Looks like you've been having fun.

Listen. I don't enjoy hurting you.

Okay?

Where is the Right Arm, Marcus?

Wait, this is Marcus?

The kid catches on quick.

Are you the brains

of the operation?

I know you know where they're hiding.

So you tell me,

and I'll make you a deal.

You can come with us.

I burned that bridge a long time ago.

Besides, I made my own deal.

You're the one who taught me,

never miss an opportunity.

What's he talking about?

I'm talking about supply and demand.

WICKED wants all the Immunes they can get.

I help provide that for them.

So I lure the kids in...

they get drunk, they have a good time.

And then, later, WICKED comes in...

they separate the wheat from the chaff.

I changed my mind, hermano.

I do enjoy hurting you.

Talk! Talk!

Okay! Jesus!

But I'm not making any promises.

These guys like to move around.

They have an outpost in the mountains.

But it's a long way away.

You got half of WICKED on your ass.

You're never gonna make it.

Not on foot.

Where's Bertha?

Not Bertha.

Well, I guess we're on foot.

Get down!

Take cover!

Hey, is everyone okay out there?

We're fine.

Anyone know where

those bloody shots came from?

That son of a b*tch, Marcus.

He led us into an ambush.

What do we do?

Here.

Hold this.

We gotta create a diversion.

You get ready to chuck it.

Everybody!

Get set to sprint back to the truck!

And hold your ears!

Ready? One...

Two...

Drop it.

Now!

I said drop it!

On your feet. Let's go.

Let's go! Move!

- Back up!

- Easy.

You two, over here now!

- Come on, let's go!

- Don't be stupid! Move.

Slowly.

Aris?

Oh, my God. Harriet?

My God.

What the hell are you doing here?

Sonya.

Aris, you're lucky we didn't

shoot your dumb ass.

You all right, man?

How...?

What's happening?

We were in the maze together.

We're clear, guys! Come on out!

Copy that! We're clear!

Stand down!

My God, you're alive.

Back it up, Joe!

Back it up!

We're taking them to base.

Wait, so, how did you guys get here?

- The Right Arm got us out.

- Wait.

The Right Arm?

Do you know where they are?

Hop in.

They've been planning this

for over a year now.

This is all for us.

You guys are lucky you found us

when you did.

We're moving out at first light.

Where's Vince?

Somewhere over there, I think.

Who's Vince?

He's the one who decides

if you get to stay.

I thought the Right Arm

was supposed to be an army.

Yeah, we were.

This is all that's left of us.

Lot of good people died

getting us this far.

Who are they?

They're Immunes.

Caught 'em coming up the mountain.

Did you check 'em?

I know this guy, Aris. I trust him.

Well, I don't. Check 'em.

Hey, boss...

Brenda! Brenda!

What's going on?

Brenda! Brenda.

- Brenda, talk to me.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

What's going on with her?

I don't know.

Brenda, are you all right?

- Brenda? Talk to me.

- What the hell?

Sh*t!

- Crank! We got a Crank!

- No!

- No!

- Wait, wait!

- Step back!

- Listen, okay?

This just happened, okay?

She's not dangerous yet.

You shouldn't have brought her here!

I know.

We let Cranks in here now,

the safe haven doesn't last a week!

- Step back!

- I understand, okay?

I understand.

Just listen. Please.

Please, okay?

I told her that you could help.

Okay? No.

There's got to be something you can do.

Yeah, there is.

- I can put her out of her misery.

- No!

No!

Vince, that's enough! Let him go.

Let him go!

She's infected, Doc.

There's nothing we can do for her.

No, but he can.

Hello, Thomas.

What?

You know me?

Interesting.

It makes sense

they'd put you in the maze.

Though I must admit...

I was worried they'd kill you

after what you did.

What I did?

The first time we spoke,

you said you couldn't take it anymore...

watching your friends die, one by one.

The last time we spoke...

you gave me the coordinates

of every WICKED compound, trial and lab.

He was our source.

We couldn't have pulled

all this off without him.

Take her to the tent.

Get these guys some warm clothes.

Careful.

Come on.

Hey, it's the least we can do.

Thomas, come on.

I need to get some blood from you.

In the beginning, we were lost.

All we knew for sure...

was that the younger you were,

the stronger your chances.

You worked for WICKED?

Long time ago.

You know, at first,

we had the best intentions.

Find a cure, save the world.

It was clear you kids were the key,

because you were immune.

But why?

Eventually, we found an answer.

An enzyme produced

by the brains of the immune.

Once separated from the bloodstream...

it can serve as a powerful agent

to slow the spread of the virus.

So, you found a cure?

Not exactly.

The enzyme can't be manufactured,

only harvested from the immune.

The young.
