Thomas makes his way to an upstairs room to go see Alby. Newt leads the way. Thomas is a bit nervous about the whole situation, especially since he saw what the Changing had done to Ben not too long ago.
As they approach the room, Thomas has a tiny memory of going to the movies. He is disturbed by these recollections that are like specks, distant recollections, in his mind.
Soon, they are in the room where Alby is resting. He doesn’t look as bad as Thomas had anticipated. Alby first retorts on how change is approaching; this change seems to have been initiated with the arrival of Thomas and the girl.
Before speaking any more, Alby insists that Newt leaves the room so that he can speak to Thomas in private. Once alone, Alby starts talking about how he remembers the ugliness of their pasts. He mentions something called “the Flare.” He makes it seem like they’re better off in the Glades than in the real world.
Unexpectedly, Alby begins to choke and wriggle around in need of help. He begins biting at his own tongue and his appendages flail around. By the time Newt is in the room, Alby’s own hands are strangling his own neck. Together, Thomas and Newt are able to pin Alby’s appendages down and calm him down.
Once Alby’s moment of insanity passes, he tries to convince the boys that something else had been controlling him. He also warns them of the mysterious girl, as well as to keep their eyes on the maps.
The boys leave Alby alone to allow him to get some rest.
