The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 Page #5

---

So we'd both be free.

Strange things did happen here

No stranger would it be.

If we met at midnight.

In the hanging tree.

That line was originally

"necklace of rope."

I had it changed to "necklace of hope."

Wow. You are a true wordsmith.

Little on the nose, but,

of course, so is war.

- Every district's seeing this?

- Yes. But not the Capitol.

I designed this signal

defence system for them.

But I can't find my way through it.

Guess I did my job too well.

At the time, I was just thinking

of the science of it all.

We'll get through it.

Moves and countermoves.

Katniss, you're wanted in Command.

Tonight, we've received reports

of derailed trains,

of granaries on fire,

and of a savage attack on the

hydroelectric dam in District 5.

What have they done to you?

I'm begging for restraint and decency.

We interrupt your regularly

scheduled horse manure

to bring you...

- That's it. That's our footage.

- Beetee's in.

- Katniss?

- He sees it. He sees our propo.

- Katniss, are you there?

- Peeta.

Katniss?

Peeta, please continue.

You were telling us about

these savage attacks.

Yeah.

The attack on the dam

was a callous

and inhuman act of destruction...

Think about it.

How will this end? What will be left?

No one can survive this.

No one is safe now.

Not here in the Capitol.

Not in any of the districts.

They're coming, Katniss.

They're gonna kill everyone.

And in District 13

you'll be dead by morning.

- He's warning us. That was a warning.

- Yes, it was.

We have to get him out

before they kill him.

- Is there anything in the air?

- Nothing on Doppler, ma'am.

He was in the mansion.

He could have overheard something.

Possibly.

It's time for an air raid drill.

This is a code red alert. Please,

remain calm and begin evacuation protocol.

- Prim! Prim!

- Proceed to your nearest stairwell

and descend to level 40.

Blast doors will be

sealed in six minutes.

This is a code red alert. Please,

remain calm and begin evacuation protocol.

Proceed in an orderly fashion to your

nearest stairwell and descend to level 40.

Madam President, three Capitol

squadrons just entered our airspace.

- How much time do we have?

- They're a few seconds from range.

- Prepare to scramble the fleet.

- Copy that.

Open up short-range air defence.

Arm long-range missiles

for counter-attack.

This is a code red alert. Please,

remain calm and begin evacuation protocol.

Proceed in an orderly fashion to your

nearest stairwell and descend to level 40.

Blast doors...

This is a code red alert.

Please, remain calm...

This is a code red alert.

Proceed in an orderly fashion...

Come on. Come on, hon.

Continue to the Supply Station

and claim one pack

for each member of your compartment.

Please keep all personal items

within your assigned area.

Be courteous to your fellow citizens.

This is a code red alert.

All citizens should be

inside the bunker.

- Blast doors will close in two minutes.

- Mum!

- Where's Prim?

- I thought she went to find you.

- She must still be on the stairs.

- There's no one on the stairs.

She went back for the cat.

This is a code red alert.

All citizens should be

inside the bunker.

Hey, stop! Stop!

Blast doors will close in one minute.

They hit the far edge of the

Northwest quadrant. Penetrated 40 feet.

Missed the living quarters.

Only minor damage to corridors 2 and 3.

- Is there any radiation?

- None detected.

Doppler shows a fourth wave approaching.

- Blast doors will close in 30 seconds.

- Prim!

- Prim!

- Katniss!

- This is a code red alert.

- Katniss!

- Blast doors will close in 15 seconds.

- Keep moving, keep moving!

Get down here!

- Hurry!

- This is a code red alert.

- Come on!

- Blast doors will close in 10 seconds.

Nine...

- Eight...

- Come on!

Seven...

Six...

- Five...

- Hold the doors!

Four...

Three...

- Two...

- Wait! Hold the doors!

One.

You went back for the cat?

What were you thinking?

I wasn't gonna leave him behind.

I couldn't live with myself.

Blast doors are now sealed.

I know, Prim.

Let's go.

Damage to the aquifer in the Northwest

quadrant. We lost a transport corridor.

There's nothing else in the Northwest.

Our surface-to-air launchers

just took a direct hit in sector 3.

Because we revealed ourselves.

They saw us firing there.

Stand down. Don't launch the fleet.

Another 12 Capitol bombers approaching

sector 3 in attack formation.

Hold fire on their approach.

What'd they hit?

Bedrock. But there's debris

in the ventilation shaft.

- They're not targeting our fleet.

- Or our Special Weaponry.

They don't know what we have

or where we have it.

Can you confirm that everyone's

safely in the bunker?

Already done.

Conceal all remaining

anti-aircraft guns.

Seal launching pads

and ventilation corridors.

We are gonna wait this out.

This is what we're built for.

They'll seal us in here like a tomb.

The Capitol's working off

some outdated information.

- I'd rather not update it for them.

- Madam President, I know it's not my place...

It's not. You're a welcome guest,

but you're out of your depth down here.

- Reduce oxygen to 14% to conserve it.

- Copy that.

Take a deep breath, Mr. Heavensbee.

It's gonna be a long night.

Prim, talk about something. Anything.

They promoted me at the hospital.

I forgot to tell you.

They're training me to be a doctor.

They'd be stupid not to.

Hey.

- Can I sit?

- Yeah.

Snow's using Annie to punish you.

He's taunting us with them.

I didn't understand until just now

watching that stupid cat.

After your first Games,

I thought the whole romance was an act.

We all expected you

to continue that strategy.

But it wasn't until

Peeta's heart stopped

and he nearly died that...

I knew I'd misjudged you.

You love him.

I'm not saying in what way.

Maybe you don't even know yourself.

But anyone paying attention can see it.

How do you live with it?

I drag myself outta nightmares

and there's no relief in waking up.

But... it's better not to give in to it.

Takes 10 times longer to put yourself

back together than it does to fall apart.

Katniss? Katniss?

Come with me.

We took their best shot. Didn't we?

Yeah.

- Your mother and sister okay?

- Yeah, they're fine.

I need you to do something for us.

I need you to tell Panem that we

survived an attack by the Capitol

with no casualties.

And we remain fully operational.

Okay.

You should know something.

We had eight extra minutes of civilian

evacuation because of Peeta's warning.

I won't forget that.

Thank you.

So Katniss, it's "13 is alive

and well and so am I."

Katniss?

Katniss.

Never one to waste it

in rehearsal, I know.

Why would they drop these?

For me.

Ready to go, Katniss?

We're gonna do this,

just like District 8.

Tell me about the roses.

Tell Snow 13 is alive and well.

He's gonna kill Peeta.

Let's try again. Can you speak up?

We don't have a mic on you.

"13 is alive and well and so am I."

He's gonna kill Peeta.
