There was nothing left to do but to let you play out your little scenario, and you were very good. That whole love-crazed besotted schoolgirl routine, impressive, truly. You convinced the people in the Capitol, unfortunately not everyone in the districts fell for it. I mean, you can't know this, but in several of them people viewed your little trick with the berries as an act of defiance, not as an act of love. And if a girl from District 12, of all places, can defy the Capitol and walk away unharmed, what is to prevent them from doing the same? What is to prevent, say, an uprising? That can lead to revolution and then in a fraction of time the whole system collapses. - It must be a fragile system if it can be brought down by just a few berries.
