Now that Tally is happy in the Smoke, Special Circumstances comes and arrests everyone.

Part III: …the hero suffers a crushing defeat, but fights back and wins (partly, leaving open room for a sequel) Cable and she even destroys the tracker that she's supposed to use to call Dr. So now Tally is definitely not going to call Dr. David also introduces Tally to his parents who tell her that the pretty surgery includes a side order of brain damage to make people manageable. Different enough that he kind of falls for Tally.

And she's even happier to meet David, a boy who was born in the wilderness and so has different ideas about what's pretty. It takes her a while, but she's very glad to find Shay safe and sound. Tally goes off to find the hidden town, called the Smoke. Part II: The hero switches her allegiance, and then… Cable blackmails Tally into going to find this hidden town: if she doesn't help, Cable will never let Tally become a pretty. Cable of the secret police (Special Circumstances), and Dr. Unfortunately for her, she's been watched by Dr. Eventually, Shay tells Tally about a hidden town in the wilderness where no one is pretty, but Tally doesn't want to go. Shay and Tally argue (and argue and argue) about whether the pretty surgery is a good thing. But when she almost gets in trouble (breaking into New Pretty Town), she meets Shay, an ugly who is a little more rebellious.

The super-short plot basically goes like this:
