Beetee's plan involves his wire, the water, and the tree that is struck by lightning at midnight and at noon. He wants to wrap his wire around the tree and drop the end of it into the water. The theory is that when the lighting hits at midnight, Brutus and Enobaria will be electrocuted.
They didn't tell Katniss or Peeta because once the force field went down the Capitol would go after them first, and they couldn't risk the Capitol finding anything out. Katniss doesn't know why they would go after her and Peeta first, and Plutarch tells her because the revolution lives as long as she does.
Answer and Explanation: Catching Fire deals with the lasting consequences of Katniss and Peeta's decisions in The Hunger Games. While they were in the arena for the 74th Hunger Games, they were focused on surviving the games without losing their integrity. They refused to become puppets for the Capitol.
The 75th Hunger Games took place in 75 ATT. The 75th Hunger Games, also known as the third Quarter Quell, were rigged by President Snow in an attempt to silence the more rebellious Victors who seemed to side with rebel forces within Panem.
Given that she is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to protect Peeta, it's safe to assume that the Morphling was committed to the rebel cause. Like the other victors, she knows the power that Katniss has as a lightning rod for the rebellion, and she knows that Katniss will not help without Peeta.
How many of the tributes in Catching Fire were orchestrated?
Why does Mags kiss Finnick?
Chia Mags kisses Finnick on the mouth to briefly let him know that this is the last time she will see him. It's her way of saying "Goodbye" but in a more affectionate way.
The victor tributes from 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 11 all had knowledge of the plan, which explains why it seemed everyone was working to protect her and Peeta. Plutarch had been working undercover for years trying to overthrow the Capitol, and Beetee's idea to shoot the wire through the force field was always the plan.
While the Hunger Games film never talked about it, the Catching Fire novel explained why she could only communicate through hand gestures. Katniss briefly mentioned that a previous stroke could have caused Mags' garbled speech. However, post-traumatic stress disorder could have also caused her speech incapacity.
In the 25th Hunger Games, the citizens of the districts had to vote on who would compete in the Hunger Games as a way of reminding the rebels that they were responsible for the Hunger Games, and it was their fault that their children died in the Games every year.
The following year after Lucy Gray Baird's victory, another female tribute emerged as the Hunger Games winner. Mags Flanagan became the first victor from District 4, living off of nuts and her survival skills by creating fishhooks. She was also the first victor to move to Victor's Village before serving as a mentor.
Later, the two learn President Snow considered their actions to be an act of rebellion against the Capitol. After their last interview, in which the two continue to affect their romantic feelings for one another, Peeta comes to the realization Katniss has staged her love for him all along.
Later, President Snow tries to demonstrate his control over Katniss by choosing the dress she's to wear during the tributes' interview with Caesar Flickerman, but Cinna turns that desire for control against him.
Seneca Crane was executed after Katniss's and Peeta's suicide stunt at the end of the Games, and the act was intended to remind the Gamemakers of his fate and suggest that they could suffer the same. Katniss's act, in other words, was an attack on the Gamemakers and wasn't about maintaining her personal integrity.
Toward the end of the novel, Katniss realizes that Haymitch has been keeping information from her and using her to help the rebellion, causing her to feel extremely betrayed. On the other hand, his goals are generally good ones.
Unable to find Peeta and hearing a cannon, Katniss nearly attacks Finnick, suspecting his betrayal, but he reminds her to "remember who the real enemy is." Katniss attaches the wire to an arrow, firing it into the arena's roof just as lightning strikes.
#CapCut Haymitch knew Katniss was planning something, she would never have voted for a symbolic Hunger Games and especially not for Prim. As soon as she did, he knew she was up to something and trusted her.
As the lone District 12 mentor for Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, it was revealed that Haymitch won the annual Hunger Games event when he was just 16 years old.
"For the 100th Quarter Quell, we are reminded that it is partially jealousy that caused the rebellion, and to commemorate that, two reapings are to be held, with no difference than a normal hunger games reaping, only one will be eight weeks before the games, and one as normal.
Peeta painted Rue's picture to hold the Gamemakers responsible for her death. Seneca Crane was the previous Head Gamemaker, who was executed for allowing two victors. Katniss painted his name on a dummy and hanged it to warn them that they're not safe and the same thing could easily happen to them.
Catching Fire's Mags Flanagan was District 4's female tribute in the 75th Quarter Quell, along with male tribute, Finnick Odair. At 80-years-old, she was the oldest tribute.
Peeta used the dyes to paint a picture of Rue after Katniss covered her with flowers when she died. He says he wants to hold them accountable for killing Rue, and Effie tells him that that kind of thinking is forbidden. Katniss then tells the team she hung a dummy of Seneca Crane.
Both Morphlings die during the Hunger Games in Catching Fire, after the female tribute from District 6 protects Peeta from the monkey mutations that attack the tribute. She dies in Peeta's arms while looking at the sunset.
Finnick tells her he can't carry both Mags and Peeta, and he turns to Mags and apologizes. Without saying a word, Mags grabs Finnick's face and kisses him on the lips before she runs straight into the fog. Moments later, the cannon blasts, signaling her death.
The plan is to break the victors out of the game and start the rebellion. They need Katniss because of her power and influence, but they know she won't join if Peeta dies, so they work to protect them both during the Quarter Quell.
