It may be time to, in some way, acknowledge the small (or large) role Madge had in bringing The Hunger Games to its conclusion. Upon realizing that the bird on her pin is a mockingjay, Katniss refers to the birds as "something of a slap in the face to the Capitol".When Katniss first saw Madge wearing the pin, she thought that it could keep a family fed with bread for months, since it was made of finely crafted gold.
