**Brenda** is a survivor of the Flare Virus.

## *Maze Runner: The Death Cure*

Brenda, along with Thomas, Newt, Frypan, Jorge, Vince, Harriet, and the Right Arm, rescue and take Aris, Sonya, and the Immune children to their new hideout.

At night, while Brenda, along with Jorge, Vince, Aris, Sonya, Harriet, the Right Arm, and the Immune children, sleep, Thomas, Newt, and Frypan leave the hideout to go to the Last City to rescue Minho.

The next day, after discovering that Thomas, Newt, and Frypan have left the hideout to go to the Last City to rescue Minho, Brenda leaves the hideout along with Jorge to follow them.

Thomas, Newt, and Frypan drive into a tunnel, where they are chased by Cranks. Brenda, along with Jorge, arrive to save them.

Brenda arrives in the Last City along with Thomas, Newt, Frypan, and Jorge. Thomas is scanned at the gate, and the WCKD guards recognize him. Brenda, along with Thomas, Newt, Frypan, and Jorge, run from the turrets and into a safe corner where a crew wearing gas masks rescue them and take them to a hideout, where one of the crew members reveals himself to be Gally. Brenda watches on as Thomas attempts to beat up Gally in rage over Gally killing Chuck. Newt stops Thomas and calms him down.

While following Gally to Lawrence's hideout along with Thomas, Newt, Frypan, and Jorge, Brenda is told by Gally that after Thomas, Newt, Frypan, and the other Gladers left him behind in the WCKD lab, he was found still lying on the floor with the spear still in his chest by Lawrence's crew, who, after discovering that he is immune to the Flare, pulled the spear out of his chest and took him to the Last City to meet Lawrence, who healed Gally of the spear wound and convinced him to join his crew. Brenda is told by Gally that Lawrence's crew is working to destroy WCKD. Brenda is warned by Gally not to stare at Lawrence.

Brenda, along with Thomas, Newt, Gally, Frypan, and Jorge, arrive in Lawrence's hideout. Thomas tells Lawrence that he, Brenda, Newt, Frypan, and Jorge need to get into the WCKD tower. Lawrence tells Thomas that he, Newt, and Gally can go into the Last City while Brenda, Frypan, and Jorge stay behind. As Jorge tells Thomas to be careful going with Newt and Gally into the Last City, Brenda watches Gally open a manhole cover to the tunnels and lower a ladder into the tunnels.

At night, in Lawrence's hideout, Brenda goes over plans along with Thomas, Newt, Gally, Frypan, and Jorge to use Teresa to get into the WCKD tower. Thomas is reluctant to use Teresa as their way into WCKD. Brenda reminds Thomas of when Teresa betrayed them, leading Gally to remark to Thomas that he likes Brenda. Newt reacts violently and aggressively to Thomas' reluctance, screaming at him for still having feelings for Teresa. Shocked about himself, Newt apologizes and leaves.

The next night, while Thomas and Gally go into the Last City to capture Teresa, Brenda, along with Newt, Frypan, and Jorge, go to an abandoned church. Thomas and Gally take Teresa to the church where Brenda, Newt, Frypan, and Jorge are. Brenda plays a game of cards while Teresa tells Thomas, Newt, Gally, and Frypan that Minho is in Sub-Level 3 with the Immune children.

Brenda goes to a parking lot to steal a bus while Thomas, Teresa, Newt, and Gally go to the WCKD tower, Frypan climbs up a crane, and Jorge returns to the Right Arm's hideout.

While leading the Immune children, one of whom is holding a bag containing the vials of serum, through the parking garage, Gally contacts Brenda on his walkie-talkie and tells her to come to the parking garage. Brenda arrives in the parking garage with the bus and she and Gally load the Immune children into the bus. When Brenda asks Gally where Thomas is, Gally replies that he was hoping that he was with her. Brenda starts to step out of the bus to find Thomas, but Gally stops her and tells her to stay with the Immune children in the bus while he goes to find Thomas.

While Gally goes to find Thomas, Brenda drives the Immune children out of the garage. Brenda is cornered by WCKD soldiers, but uses a flare gun to fire a flare into the sky to signal for Frypan to save her and the Immune children with the crane.

Brenda, along with Frypan, and the Immune children discover that Lawrence has gone to destroy the walls of the Last City. Jorge and Vince arrive with a berg to pick them up. They fly into the city to get Thomas, Newt, Minho, and Gally.

Brenda is waiting at the berg along with Frypan, Jorge, Vince, and the Immune children when they hear Teresa telling Thomas that his blood can cure Newt like it did Brenda, Minho and Gally arrive, asking Brenda where the serum is. Brenda runs to the train station along with Minho, Gally, and Frypan where they see that Thomas has killed Newt. Brenda watches on along with Gally as Minho and Frypan kneel at Newt's dead body.

Brenda returns to the berg along with Minho, Gally, and Frypan where Jorge flies them, Vince, and the Immune children to the top of the WCKD tower where Thomas and Teresa are. Thomas is unable to get on the berg due to being shot in the stomach by Janson, but Teresa manages to throw him onto the ramp of the berg, allowing Brenda to pull him onboard with the help of Minho, Gally, Frypan, and Vince. Teresa falls to her death when the WCKD tower collapses. As Jorge flies Brenda, Thomas, Minho, Gally, Frypan, Vince, and the Immune children away from the tower, Brenda helps Gally bandage Thomas' wound along with Minho, Gally, Frypan, and Vince.

Sometime later, Brenda arrives at the Safe Haven along with Thomas, Minho, Gally, Frypan, Jorge, Vince, Aris, Sonya, Harriet, the Right Arm, and the Immune children. Brenda, along with Harriet, are walking, when they see Thomas, who has woken up, approaching them. Brenda watches on as Thomas and Minho hug. At night, at the campfire, Brenda, along with Thomas, Minho, Gally, Frypan, Jorge, Aris, Sonya, Harriet, the Right Arm, and the Immune children, listen to Vince give a speech.

Brenda sips from her cup while Gally and Sonya converse. Brenda watches Minho, Gally, Frypan, and Vince engrave Newt, Chuck, Winston, and Mary's names on the memorial rock. Brenda is sitting with Minho, Gally, Frypan, Jorge, Vince, Aris, Sonya, Harriet, the Right Arm, and the Immune children at the campfire when Thomas approaches them, hugs Brenda and Gally, and sits down with them, Minho, Frypan, Jorge, Vince, Aris, Sonya, Harriet, the Right Arm, and the Immune children at the campfire. The next morning, while Brenda is sleeping, Thomas goes to the memorial rock and engraves Teresa's name on it. Thomas walks along the beach, stops walking, looks at the ocean and the ship, takes out the serum, looks at it, and looks out into the distance.
