The Death Cure Theme of Friendship

Why can't we all just get along? Well, in The Death Cure, friendship trumps everything—even suffering, sadness, and death.

Because their memories have been wiped, the Gladers have only known one phase of their lives, and that's the phase of being thrust into a Maze with a bunch of other kids. When you think about it, these Gladers' relationships with each other aren't just buddy-buddy. These kids are family, and they'll do anything for each other. And, of course, if someone from the family turns out to betray them (cough, Teresa), then all trust will go out the window.
