I boken visas åtminstone Capitol-kanen och skär ut scener som de inte vill visa:
Hungerspelen (bok 1), del II "spelen" , Ch. 18:
Slowly, one stem at a time, I decorate her body in the flowers.
Covering the ugly wound. Wreathing her face. Weaving her hair with
bright colors.
They’ll have to show it. Or, even if they choose to turn the cameras
elsewhere at this moment, they’ll have to bring them back when they
collect the bodies and everyone will see her then and know I did it. I
step back and take a last look at Rue. She could really be asleep in
that meadow after all.
“Bye, Rue,” I whisper. I press the three middle fingers of my left
hand against my lips and hold them out in her direction. Then I walk
away without looking back.
The Hunger Games (bok 1), del III "Victor" , Ch. 27:
They play her death in full, the spearing, my failed rescue attempt,
my arrow through the boy from District 1’s throat, Rue drawing her
last breath in my arms. And the song. I get to sing every note of the
song. Something inside me shuts down and I’m too numb to feel
anything. It’s like watching complete strangers in another Hunger
Games. But I do notice they omit the part where I covered her in
flowers.
Right. Because even that smacks of rebellion.
Capitolen visade inte agera av Katniss som täckte Rue's kropp med blommor eller hennes salut. Men blommig begravning måste ha visats när kropparna hämtades. Den är inte täckt av boken, men medan handlingar av hyllorna övervakas och redigeras för möjliga seditösa handlingar, kan återhämtningen av kroppar ses noga noggrant.
