If it weren't for what? What?

If it weren't for the baby.

All right. This is news!

Let's find out more.

Calm down. This is news to all of us.

Call off The Games!

All right.

- Let's...

- Stop The Games!

Everybody, calm down.

It's a great night. A great night.

This is news to all of us.

All right, all right, all right.

We're going to find out

what we do about this.

Cancel The Games!

Stop The Games!

There's no way they'll cancel.

They can't.

Baby bomb was a stroke of genius.

Unfortunately, Games are still on.

This is goodbye, for now.

Presents for the boys.

What is this?

Your token. Remember?

Hair for me. Pin for Katniss.

Gold bangle for you.

And for Peeta,

the medallion that we talked about.

Thank you, Effie.

We're a team. Aren't we?

And I'm so proud of my Victors.

So proud.

You're so...

Well, you both deserved so much better.

Thank you, Effie.

I am truly sorry.

Thank you, Haymitch.

For everything.

Any last advice?

Stay alive.

Haymitch, wait.

Remember our deal.

Do whatever it takes

to keep him alive.

Promise me.

Okay.

Katniss, when you're in the arena,

remember who the real enemy is.

I don't want to be with

anyone else in there.

Justyou.

If that's what you want.

That's what I want.

I'll see you soon.

Your tracker.

Look at this. They're holding hands.

I want them dead.

Be patient.

They're holding hands now, but the minute

the gun goes off, it'll be a bloodbath.

And the whole idea of revolution

will be discredited.

And the idea of her?

The idea of the Mockingjay?

The more allies she betrays,

the more friends she kills,

the more she reveals her true self.

As long as it ends with her picture

in the sky and the sound of cannon.

- And it shall.

- It better.

Let's watch her get her

hands dirty first.

Excuse me.

Let's start.

This suit is light. No thermal.

So I'd guess tropics or desert.

Sixty seconds to launch.

That dress was beautiful.

I think it was the best

one you've ever made.

I thought you'd like it.

I just wanted to tell

you, because I don't...

Stop.

Remember, I'm still betting on you,

Girl on Fire.

Ten seconds to launch.

No!

Cinna! No!

No!No!No!

No! Cinna!

No! No!

No!

No!

No, no...

Let the 75th Hunger Games begin.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Peeta?

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six,

five, four,

three, two,

One

Good thing we're allies, right?

Where did you get that?

Where do you think?

Duck.

Don't trust 1 and 2.

I'll take this side.

You hold them off.

I'll go find Peeta.

Katniss, Mags found him.

He's over here.

Katniss, Katniss, go, go, go, go.

Okay, hold up. Hold up.

Here you go.

Okay. You all right now?

Okay?

God, it's hot.

We gotta find fresh water.

Well, I guess we're not

holding hands any more.

You think that's funny?

Every time that cannon goes off,

it's music to my ears.

I don't care about any of them.

Good to hear.

Want to face the Career Pack alone?

What would Haymitch say?

Haymitch isn't here.

Let's keep moving.

Peeta, no!

Peeta?

Peeta?

He's not breathing.

He's not breathing.

He's not breathing! Peeta!

Peeta?

Peeta?

Come on! Come on!

Please, wake up.

No.

Please, wake up.

- Come on.

- Come on!

Bring me in closer.

Cannon ready?

Come on. Come on. Come on, Peeta!

Please, Peeta. Peeta.

Come on.

Peeta? Peeta.

Oh, my God.

Be careful.

There's a force field up there.

Oh, my God. You were dead.

You were dead. Your heart stopped.

It's okay.

It's working now.

- You... Do you wanna stand up?

- Yeah.

It's okay.

Someday I want to love

someone that much.

And so you shall, my darling.

So you shall.

Hang on.

The force field...

It's a dome. We're at

the edge of the arena.

We couldn't find any

signs of fresh water.

It's gonna get dark soon.

We'll be safe with

our backs protected.

We should set up camp.

Take turns sleeping. I can take first watch.

Not a chance.

Honey, that thing I did

back there for Peeta?

That was called "saving his life."

If I wanted to kill either of you,

I would've done it by now.

Why don't you get some rest?

I'll take the first watch.

Just for a little bit.

How's Peeta?

He's okay, I think.

Just dehydrated like the rest of us.

Eight.

Hey.

Drink up"?

What is it?

It's from Haymitch.

I think it's a spile.

A What?

You're kidding me. You're kidding me.

Get some water.

I'm gonna get a leaf.

I'll get some for Mags.

There we go.

Want some more?

I counted 12.

Midnight?

Or the number of districts.

Well...

If you're not gonna sleep, I will.

Okay.

Run! Run! The fog is poison!

Come on, come on, come on

There!

God! God!

Mags, please, please!

Come on! Come on!

Peeta.

I can't carry him.

Peeta, please.

Peeta, please, stand up.

We have to go.

Mags?

- Mags? Mags!

- Finnick.

- Mags!

- Finnick.

Mags!

Finnick! Finnick, we have to go.

We have to get outta here.

We have to go.

All right, come on, come on. Come on.

Okay.

Sh*t!

The water! The water helps.

We need our weapons.

I'm sorry about Mags.

She was never gonna make it.

So...

What?

- Peeta.

- Yeah?

Walk over here slowly.

Get to the beach.

We gotta get to the beach!

- Who is that?

- A Morphling! Help me get her!

Hey, hey, hey. It's okay. It's okay.

Hey, you wanna see something?

Look up. Look.

Look at it. Look at that.

It's incredible, isn't it?

All those colors.

Don't worry about anything else.

I'll be right here with you.

It's okay. It's okay.

She sacrificed herself for me

and I didn't even know her name.

You think she sacrificed herself?

Looked like it.

That doesn't make any sense.

Look. For you.

Thank you.

That's new.

Someone's here.

Johanna?

- Johanna!

- Finnick!

Guess we have more allies.

Well...

I got 'em out.

We were all the way deep into the jungle

where I thought it was gonna be safe.

That's when the rain started.

I thought it was water.

It turned out to be blood.

- Tick took.

- Hot, thick blood.

- It was coming down.

- Tick took.

It was choking us.

We were stumbling around,

gagging on it, blind.

Tick took.

- That's when Blight hit the force field.

- Tick took.

Tick took.

He wasn't much, but he was from home.

Tick took.

Tick took.

- Tick took.

- What's wrong with her?

- She's in shock.

- Tick took.

Dehydration isn't helping.

Do you have fresh water?

- We can get some.

- Just...

Tick took.

Listen. Stop it!

- Hey! Lay off her!

- Just sit down!

Hey! What are you doing?

- Hey, hey, hey!

- I got them out for you!

It's okay. It's okay.

Let me go, Finnick!

- For me? What does that mean?

- Let me go.

- You did want them as allies.

- I'm fine.

Come on, let's get you cleaned up.

Tick took.

- Tick took.

- Tick took!

Tick took, okay.

What does Beetee have there?

The coil? It's some kind of wire.

Did he get it from the Cornucopia?

Took a knife in the back to get it.

- Tick took! Tick took!

- All right.

I can't.

Just... Have fun with "Nuts."

Tick took.

Tick took.

It's a clock.

It's a clock.

My God, it's a clock!
