“In sharp contrast with Katniss, who’s constantly thinking about how her actions will impact others - her family and her community - and who’s determined to protect her sister and her mother, the prep team’s docile self-focus means that the stylists experience even the televised horrors of the Hunger Games in personal terms: '"I was still in bed!"
