The Host Chapter 12 Summary
How It All Goes Down
- It's back into the desert. All those bad ideas from Chapter 11 catch up with Wanderer fairly quickly. She ends up dehydrated and, well, basically dying on the ground.
- She and Melanie lie there and think about death for a while until they pass out.
- They wake up when someone splashes water on their face. They're exhausted, dazed, and using a first-person plural pronoun to refer to themselves. Weird, right?
- When they're able to open their eyes, they recognize the man: Uncle Jeb.
