Adaptational Villainy: Teresa again. Very early in the book, she realizes that WICKED's experiment is not going to stop and gets the hell out of the HQ as fast as she could. In the film, she remains a devoted scientist of WCKD until her death.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Assistant Director Janson is hit with this as well. While in the books, he was a ruthless and undeniably evil Mad Scientist, he was still a Well-Intentioned Extremist who's overall goals aligned with WCKD's. In the film? Janson outright betrays and murders Ava Paige and tries to hijack the cure in Thomas' blood to play pick-and-choose with who lives and who dies to create a future of his own design.

Action Prologue: The movie opens with the Gladers assaulting and stopping a speeding WCKD train in order to free Minho. They get the wrong wagon, so the rest of the film is about getting him out of the Last City instead.
