The 5th Wave Chapter 29 Summary

  • Zombie's being wheeled into a bomb shelter that's below a military base.
  • As promised, Dr. Pam shows Zombie an alien. Surprise! It's Chris, his former tent mate.
  • She shows Zombie Chris's brain scan. It has a glowing egg-shaped thing in it.
  • Zombie wonders if the egg-shaped thing can be removed. No dice. The "host"—in this case, Chris—must be killed.
  • Dr. Pam offers to let Zombie press the execute button. No, really. It's a button labeled "execute."
  • After reflecting on his dead sister, Zombie presses the button. R.I.P. Chris.
