How It All Goes Down
- Minho isn't too happy about the news, but a really pretty Crank girl stops him from charging Jorge.
- Thomas secretly hopes that the pretty girl is Brenda. Oh, Thomas, you wanton rascal.
- The Cranks all start to disperse, and Jorge leads the boys to go get food. The pretty girls comes along. So, yes—she's Brenda.
- Brenda asks Thomas if he's the leader. He tells her that Minho's the leader, but she responds that she'd have guessed Thomas was the leader.
- Then Brenda kisses Thomas on the cheek and tells him that he's sweet and she likes him.
- Whoa, this all just happened so fast. Something ain't right.
- All the Gladers are staring at Thomas at this point, but he just puts his head up and follows with a slight smirk. Hehehe.
- The group finally reaches a room with boxes and cans of food. Everyone eats up—it's sausages and beans.
- Thomas and Brenda bond for a bit—it turns out she grew up in Northern Canada—but then an explosion on the roof rattles everyone.
- Ugh, so many explosions. Why can't these kids just have some peace and quiet?
- The roof crashes down and separates Thomas and Brenda from the rest of the group, so Thomas is forced to follow her.
- Great, Thomas is now stuck with the psycho-girl.
