Chapter 22: Ruin them

Four's the greatest guy ever, and after he saves Tris, he takes her back to somewhere, I'm guessing it's his room or something. He's taking care of her and she tells him what happened. She doesn't want to report them or anything, because she doesn't want to look weak. But Four tells her that she should try looking a little weak, because then she won't stand out as much. Good advise, of course, but she's super resistant because she likes being strong, and likes protecting herself and being independent, and she doesn't want people to think that the boys took that away from her.
But Four's being a good nurse. I'd let him take care of me.

He hands me the ice pack. "You can let yourself be in pain," he says. "It's just me here."

He totally understands her need to be more than just the little Stiff.

"I don't want to say this," he says, "but I feel like I have to. It is more important for you to be safe than right, for the time being. Understand?"

"But please, when you see an opportunity..." ... "Ruin them."

Four also hints that there is more to him than his name, and he's willing to share that with Tris, eventually.
