In The Death Cure, most of WICKED's subjects are able to escape from WICKED's direct control. Tied in strongly with the common thread of unpredictability in his life is Thomas's constant relationship with fate. He must adapt to his environment as the story develops. Just as WICKED is unpredictable, so Thomas will also be forced to take unprecedented actions that he never would have thought of taking earlier. For example, he doesn't discover the 'Final Candidate' business and why he is the Final Candidate until midway through the story. A consequence of this lacks of rules is that Thomas cannot simply try to "play the game" or go along with WICKED's trials: now he must truly try to think for himself, and stumbles on new discoveries along the way. In The Death Cure, there are finally no rules. Unpredictability seems to be the only rule as Thomas escapes from the clutches of WICKED.
