By the end of the novel, the reader realizes that the young people who live in the Glade and are sent into the Maze during the day are part of an experiment in which they are watched while they try to solve the mystery. Ultimately, the reader discovers that the experiment focuses on finding a cure for the Flare. The Maze helps W.I.C.K.E.D. try to solve this problem, but the cost is high in terms of the way in which the teens are treated.
