Down River

Yes, I would ask the Warden to make me a pretty, because then you wouldn't have to go through all the trouble of going to the Dorm, hospital, or Special Circumstances.

Confessions

I think Tally won't regret telling the truth. David won't change his mind about her, of anything he will just like her more for fixing her mistake.

Hippocratic Oath

Maddy shouldn't of forced Shay to take the cure. If she did then she would be like Dr. Cable to Az. Az didn't have a choice, but Shay should.

Night Alone

If I was Shay I would get the cure. Sure there is a small chance that you could end up like a veggie, but if you didn't then you could be pretty and not have the lesions.

Getaway

Respond to the quote

"Tally thought of the lesions on Shay's brain, the tiny cancers or wounds or whatever they are that she didn't even know she had. They were in there somewhere changing her friend's thoughts, warping her feelings, gnawing at the roots of who she was."

This quote means to me that, Tally is worried about Shay. She can't stop wondering what will happen to her, and how it will affect her.

Rescue

Chronological order of important events
  • Tally finds Shay a pretty and they talk
  • David breaks out the other smokies
  • They grab, unconscious Dr. Cable, and escape using her for the eye-reader.
  • They escaped using hover-boards.

The "Kicker" at the end of the chapter is that Az is dead.

Inside

" Radiology, Neurology, Magnetic Imaging," she read softly. "Operation Theater Two".
This quote has a deeper meaning, then it is a play on words. Radiology is like X=rays, Neurology is the study of the brains, and Magnetic Imaging is like MRIs.

At the end of the chapter, when Tally finds Shay, she describes Shay as "She was tall and elegant, every feature perfection." "Her eyes-deep and soulful, flecked with copper and gold- widened with a troubled look." (pg 338)
