Final answer: In 'The Maze Runner,' Thomas is drawn to the role of the Runners, those who explore the maze, despite initially not choosing a specific job in the Glade. His determination and bravery eventually lead him to join them.
He wants to be a Runner because it'll help solve the Maze; he wants the girl to wake up and explain things because it'll help solve the Maze; he wants Frypan to make him some gall-dang lunch because it'll help him solve the Maze. You get the idea. This isn't necessarily a bad trait for our protagonist, though.
Why does Thomas say he wants to be a runner? He says he wants to be runner because he is curious about the maze and wants to figure out what is out there and the only way he can do that is if he is a runner. What does Thomas reveal to Chuck? He reveals that he has been in the maze before.
Thomas was sent into the glade because he had betrayed WCKD (World Catastrophe Killzone Department), the organization responsible for conducting experiments on the Gladers. In the movies, it is implied that Thomas was immune to the Flare virus, which made him valuable to WCKD.

Is Thomas's blood the cure?
In the movies, no. However, in the books his blood is not the cure to the Flare, it is merely that he is the “prime candidate” and that his brain has provided the best data that will be most helpful in creating a cure.
Plus, with Thomas unable to get the "cure" to Newt in time to save his life, Thomas doesn't have much personal incentive to help resolve the pandemic, since everyone else he cares about is immune.
But let us look more closely at the sentence St John writes in today's Gospel 'They ran together, but the other disciple, running faster than Peter, reached the tomb first'. In the first instance, it may seem like a trivial bit of information. Why is it so important for John to tell us that he ran faster than Peter?
Peter perhaps being denigrated for his actions around the crucifixion. Most scholars disagree with this view. The tradition that the Beloved Disciple was the author of John made it necessary for him to be considerably younger than Peter. His youthful vigour is thus a common explanation for why he beats Peter.
Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me?
Newt reveals that the reason WCKD put him in the Maze was because they wanted to tell the difference between immunes like Thomas and people like himself. Thomas tells Newt that he can cure him.
It just needed to happen, in her mind. No biggie. In book 2, she couldn't stand the thought of Thomas feeling betrayed without warning, so she tries really hard to warn him. And then basically kills their friendship to save his life.
Testing for the Final Candidate: The maze serves as the first part of a series of trials conducted by the organization known as WCKD (World Catastrophe Killzone Department) [1]. The boys are being monitored to determine who is the final candidate for a cure for a disease called the flare [1].
Newt is approached by Thomas on a rooftop and shows him his infection, as shown by the black veins on his right arm. Newt explains that the reason WCKD put him in the Maze was because they wanted to tell the difference between immunes like Thomas and people like himself.
Gally is alive in Maze Runner: The Death Cure because he was rescued and saved after The Maze Runner's ending. Although the Gladers thought that he was already dead, Gally confirms that they left him to die. It was after they left that another group stumbled across the maze and laboratory and found Gally still inside.
In the film, Paige was involved in the release of the Flare and is revealed to be so fanatically devoted to WCKD that she is willing to fake her death to support its aims.
Indeed, John used the verb to believe overwhelmingly 100 times but never used the noun faith at all. These interesting statistics confirm that the book of John is rather different from the other 3 synoptic gospels.
Upon hearing of the empty tomb, Peter and John set out running to investigate the matter themselves. John outran Peter and arrived at the grave site first (vv. 3–4).
John arrived first. He looked inside and saw the strips of linen that had been wrapped around Jesus' body. He didn't go inside, perhaps because Jewish law said that to go into a burial tomb made a person ceremonially unclean and prevented them from worshipping in the temple.
John has the women bring the report only to Peter and John the Beloved, and only these two go to the tomb, John entering first. They then return to their homes. But Mary is still there, and she sees two angels, and then sees Jesus, whom she does not recognize, and has a conversation with him.
So they ran both together: and the other disciple John did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.” When the Bible says Peter and John “went forth,” the Greek tense indicates that their feet were moving before the conversation with the women concluded.
So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb.
Due to its current development status, Maze Runner 4's release date is unknown. Disney has never given the film a date on its schedule, even though the studio has releases mapped out through 2027. This might mean that the earliest Maze Runner 4 could be released is 2028.
He first gets angry with Thomas and then finally tells him that he is infected. In the book, Newt gives Thomas a note and tells him to read it “when the time is right.” In the film, it isn't until Newt dies when he gives Thomas a pendant that he later realises has a note hidden inside of it.
