Long Answer

1. The Gladers feel they are all in the same position, with their memories gone and being thrust into danger. In fact, at the Gathering when Thomas revealed he and Teresa helped build the Maze, Newt affirms his belief the Creators are the true enemy, and he is quickly backed up by Minho. (Chapter 50)

2. The memo is written by one of the people supposedly helping the Gladers, but in reality, she is working with the others who forced them into the Maze. The writer calls those she writes to “My Associates” and goes on to discuss the Gladers as “Group A,” later mentioning “Group B,” showing that the adults are testing more youth like the Gladers.
