Part 5, Chapter 38 Summary: “Henry”

Henry wants to plan an escape. However, he knows that he’s still better off with the group than alone.

Part 5, Chapter 39 Summary: “Kelton”

Kelton realizes that they’re all severely dehydrated. He thinks, “We could go maybe six or seven more hours without water now. Then we fall into a coma. Then we die. Simple as that” (330). In addition, he worries that he’ll be wrong about the reservoir having water.
