* XanatosGambit: Snow and Plutarch rig the Quarter Quell to be one. They can't have Katniss die in a tragic "accident", because it'll only kill ''her''; it ''won't'' kill her symbol and the flames of dissent and rebellion the Mockingjay's ignited. Thus, the Quarter Quell forces Katniss back into the arena where she'll likely be killed by one of the Tributes. Whether she dies or survives (though Snow's obviously hoping for the former), Katniss will be forced to ally with Tributes and then ultimately kill him -- thus discrediting the Mockingjay's symbol of hope and turning the Districts against her. [[spoiler: Under normal circumstances, the Gambit ''would'' have worked...except Snow didn't know Plutarch was a traitor and had rigged the Quell so that half the Tributes were working for him and working to get Katniss out of their alive.]]

* TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: Tick Tock.

to:

* TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: Tick "Tick Tock." Katniss quickly realizes that's not just Wiress being strange - it's because she figured out the arena's gimmick.



* MacheteMayhem: Peeta picks up a machete in the arena, which comes in handy both for clearing a path through the jungle and cutting down attacking monkey mutts and enemy tributes.



* MrFanservice: Finnick, good God, both in-universe and out-of-universe.

to:

* MrFanservice: Finnick, good God, both in-universe and out-of-universe. Tellingly, his first on-camera appearance has him shirtless.


Added DiffLines:

* TraitorShot: A heroic example. [[spoiler:When Beetee seemingly tells his allies "Keep me alive for the next six hours, that would be very helpful." the camera instead focuses on Plutarch - the person who's been working against Snow the whole time and whom Beetee is also addressing with the remark.]]

* ArcNumber: 12. The arena is divided into twelve sectors enclosed in force fields, each with their own deadly gimmick that happens when its designated hour arrives. One fills wih poison gas; one has genetically engineered killer baboons; one has raining blood; one merely tortures the tributes who get stuck in it with the screams of their loved ones.

Mockingjay, in this installment, as it went from flying upward to stretching its wings to either side in the logo, stands for the uprisings and Katniss's unwitting role in them.
