The Smoke is a place where people run away because they don't want to be beautiful!. When Tally hears her friend is going to the Smoke, she tells the authorities, and becomes a spy!. When she arrives at the smoke, she discovers a secret!. The surgery makes people stupid!. It is a solution to war!. With stupid people, there can be no conflict!. Tally discovers that she doesn't want to rat out her friends!. She wants to stay with the smoke!. So, the necklace they gave her to open when she was there was thrown into the fire by her!.
