"But? Prim? You're not…
" "Dead? No.
" "No, I was going to say: you're not a salad leaf, but that works too. Sorry, I'm slowly recovering, and charisma-wise, it's kind of the same. But is that true, you're not dead? District 12 wasn't bombed?
" "Yes. But I was able to hide here, in District 13, from where we continue the fight against the Capitol.
" "Wait… and my family? Did they survive too?
" "…
" "Prim…
" "Your parents' bakery was bombed, Peeta.
" "But… my parents…
" "Oh, well, hey, they got a two-ton bomb on the corner of their mouth, we buy phone number list didn't even find enough to make a sandwich, so if you don't mind, yes, they're sh…
" "YEAH WELL I GOT IT, THANKS." Anyway, this is all Katniss's fault.
"Excuse me?
" "I know! She started this war! It's her fault! The Capitol programmed her to do this, to destroy us! I HATE HER! I'M ANGRY!"
And Peeta gets all excited, forcing Primrose out, while Peeta is injected with bread to soften him up a bit. Katniss, on the other hand, is dejected. So that's That's terrible! Well, what's even more terrible is that Peeta thinks Katniss is on the Capitol's side, while the Capitol has reprogrammed him to think well of the Capitol, so it's very stupid, but let's just say that no one thought to watch the previous film before making the sequel.
Peeta being a bit useless, the story moves forward, and probably in fast-forward, since bang, in one scene, Katniss loses her neck markings and regains her full voice. This allows her to honor a meeting in the conference room with Bob and the President, who, as a reminder, is the President of District 13 and the leader of the Resistance.
“Hello Katniss. How are you?
” “Good, thanks to the magical healing powers of this movie.
” “Perfect, you’re kind of the Wolverine of this base. Incidentally, my little Katniss, we must continue our fight.
” “That’s good, I’d like to make myself useful. Send me to where the fighting is. You know I can warm up the soldiers.
” “Said like that, it sounds a bit like a sailor’s friend, but anyway. And you’re too precious for that.
” “You know what I’m capable of.
” “Hmmmmyesss, now you sound more like an arrogant shit than anything else. Is it a knack of yours to always sound bad?
” “I don’t care. Send me to the front.
” “Fine. Right now, the battle is raging in District 2. If we take it, it opens the gates of the Capitol for us. Go and… uh… warm up the troops?
” “Let’s do it like that.”
And Bob agrees:
" Yes, it will give us the opportunity to make other propaclips ."
Wow, I wasn't ready. I'd forgotten the term "propaclips." Okay. I ripped off my soft cinema armrest, just like that, taken by surprise, but I suggest we forget this term, which sounds more like a prolapse than a communication tool, and let's get back to Katniss.
Zip up the zipper, snap the belt buckle, and off our heroine goes with a brisk stride to take one of District 13's hovercraft, heading for District 2.
What Peeta thinks?
