With only one name left on the list of non immune gladers, Thomas' wish comes true and Newt is spared. But you can't spare someone and not have to sacrifice another. Not with Wicked.

Minho knows he needs to get away from his friends before he endangers them, but can't seem to bring himself to leave...
