Chapter Thirty One - The One With The Revenge Of The Horizontal Tango

The fear landscape is over! Yay! Go Tris! From the reactions of the Dauntless leaders, it seems like it went pretty well.

After a little bit of congratulatory chatter, Eric has Tris injected with another serum. This serum is some sort of tracking device. Don't do it, Tris! It's a trap! She realizes that she has to, or else people will get suspicious.

All of the factions should live as one
Later, Four congratulates Tris on only having seven fears. He still beat her, though. 4 < 7. To celebrate, the two of them start to "bow chicka bow wow". But Tris is having none of it. Her and Tobias get into a fight over her fear of getting intimate with him and Tris threatens to leave. Tobias tells her to stay and things start to settle down again.

Tris decides to show him the tattoo of the Abnegation symbol on her shoulder. Tobias reveals that he has that tattoo as well, in addition to all of the other factions. Ok. He's divergent. There is no question. He respects all of the values of each faction and he talks about all of them as if he personifies each one of them.

"I think we've made a mistake... We've all started to put down the virtues of the other factions in the process of bolstering our own. I don't want to do that. I want to be brave, and selfless, and smart, and honest."

After the tattoo conversation, the two "get back to business".
