President Alma Coin: Maybe you should've rescued the boy instead.
Plutarch Heavensbee: No. No, no, listen to me. No one else who can do this but her.
President Alma Coin: This is not the girl you described.
Plutarch Heavensbee: Obviously, we need to make it personal. Remind her who the real enemy is.

President Alma Coin: She knows who the enemy is. That's not the issue.
Plutarch Heavensbee: Unless she's forgortten. There's explaining and there's showing. Let her see what the capital did to 12.
President Alma Coin: She can't handle it. The Games destroyed her.
Plutarch Heavensbee: This is the only choice

you have. People don't always show up the way you want them to, Madame President. But that anger, that anger-driven defiance, that's what we want. And we can redirect it. We need to unite these people out there that have been doing nothing but killing each other in an arena for years. We have to have a lightning rod. They'll follow her. She's the face of the revolution. Let her see it. Let her go

home.

Katniss Everdeen: I've decided I will be your Mockingjay, but I have... some conditions. Peeta and the other tributes, Johanna Mason and Annie Cresta, will be rescued at the earliest opportunity. If and when Peeta is liberated, he will receive a full and unconditional pardon, no punishment will be inflicted. And the same goes for the other tributes.
President Alma

Coin: [nods, considers the demand, but:] No.
Katniss Everdeen: It's not their fault. You be them in the arena. They're doing and saying whatever they can to survive.
President Alma Coin: Individuals don't make demands in 13. There will be a tribunal, and a fair judgment.
[coldly:]
President Alma Coin: Thank

you.
Katniss Everdeen: [adamant] The victors will be granted immunity, and you will announce that in front of the entire population of 13. You will hold yourself and your government responsible, or you will find another Mockingjay.
Plutarch Heavensbee: [pleased] That's it! That's her! Right there! Isn't that what I promised you? Now if she wears the

costume, gunfire in the background, a hint of smoke... Our Mockingjay. Madam President, we're losing ground because people are losing heart, this is worth the risk, she's worth the risk. Pardons, tribunals, power to the people, that can all be the bedrock for the new Panem, but with more time I think even the normal sub-causes can be bent a little bit, right?
President Alma

Coin: [swayed] Do you have any other conditions?
Katniss Everdeen: [consults her note] My sister gets to keep her cat.

Effie Trinket: [to Katniss] There's not much of a prep team here in 13. But we will make you the best-dressed rebel in history.

President Alma Coin: We can't guarantee her safety.
Katniss Everdeen: You'll never be able to guarantee my safety... I wanna go.
President Alma Coin: And if you're killed?
Katniss Everdeen: Make sure you get it on camera.

Katniss Everdeen: [speaking softly] Start simple. Start with that you know is true. My name is Katniss Everdeen. My home is District 12. I was in the Hunger Games. I escaped. Peeta... Peeta was left behind.

Gale Hawthorne: [standing next to table] This is where you kissed me.
Katniss Everdeen: I didn't think you remembered that.
[slowly coming to him]
Gale Hawthorne: I would have to be dead to forget that... Maybe not even then.
[she leans in and they share a tender passionate kiss]

Finnick Odair: I drag myself outta nightmares and there's no relief in waking up. But... it's better not to give in to it. It takes 10 times longer to put yourself back together than it does to fall apart.

Katniss Everdeen: [filming a "propo," stilted, wooden delivery] People of Panem, we fight! We dare to end this hunger for justice.
Haymitch Abernathy: [entering the room, slow clap] And that, my friends, is how a revolution dies. Hello, Katniss. This how you greet an old friend?
Katniss Everdeen: Maybe I don't recognize you sober.


Haymitch Abernathy: I guess it looks as bad as it feels.

Katniss Everdeen: [frantic search] Mom! Where's Prim?
Katniss' Mother: I thought she went to find you. She went to be on the stairs.
Katniss Everdeen: There's no one on the stairs!
[dawns on her:]
Katniss Everdeen: She went back for the cat!
