"The Hunger Games" saga will sadly come to an end this weekend when the final film, "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" is released. The movie is the adaptation of the second half of the final book in the series written by Suzanne Collins, and picks up from where last year's "Mockingjay Part 1" left off. Here is everything that you need to know before Katniss, Peeta and Gale wrap up their epic journey this weekend.

"Mockingjay Part 1" shows Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) becoming the face of the revolution against The Capitol as she heads into her final face-off with the evil President Snow (Donald Sutherland). The film stretches out over Katniss' time in District 13 and her struggling with her new role as the Mockingjay.

In the second film, "Catching Fire," Peeta was taken by The Capitol, and Katniss is now adamant about the people of District 13 getting him back safe and sound. Katniss is introduced to President Coin (Julianne Moore), who is in charge of District 13 - a place Katniss previously thought did not exist. Coin persuades Katniss to join the rebellion and while she first rejects the offer, she accepts after she sees what The Capitol did to her home, District 12. A film crew led by Cressida (Natalie Dormer) follows Katniss through various Districts as the people of Panem join in on the rebellion.

When Katniss arrives back in District 13, she watches a series of interviews with The Capitol's Caesar Flickerman (Stanley Tucci) and Peeta as his health slowly decreases. During one interview where Peeta is visibly black and blue, he shouts a warning into the camera that The Capitol is on its way to bomb District 13. Thanks to Peeta's warning, the people of District 13 have just enough time to find shelter and wait out the attacks. After the bombings, Katniss goes outside and sees that there are thousands of white roses on the ground - a taunt from President Snow.

Katniss then believes that President Snow will kill Peeta. Since Peeta risked his life by warning District 13 about the attack, Coin agrees to send a team to rescue him from grips of The Capitol. The team, led by Gale, is successful, and also rescues former tributes Johanna Mason (Jena Malone) and Annie Cresta, the love interest of Finnick (Sam Claflin). Once Peeta is safely back in District 13, Katniss goes to visit him in the medical center where he lunges at her and tries to strangle her.

After Katniss wakes up from her brush with death at the hands of Peeta, she learns that he has been "hijacked," which means The Capitol brainwashed him into thinking Katniss is the enemy. "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" comes to a close as Katniss realizes that every time she gets near Peeta, he will try to kill her.

The aftermath of Peeta's attack on Katniss takes place in chapter 13 of the 27-chapter book, according to Popsugar. Like "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" and "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" before it, Lionsgate made the decision to split the 27-chapter "Mockingjay" book into two films.

While "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" has a staggering 759 pages, according to the Daily Dot, and "The Twilight Sage: Breaking Dawn" has 704, "Mockingjay" only has 390 pages in it. Many have called the studio's decision to split the final book in "The Hunger Games" series as a decision purely motivated by money, the Los Angeles Times reported. Fans finally get to see if the decision to split the final book into two will pay off when "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" is released on Nov. 20.
