It is finally time to decide on our verdict for Dr. Gaul in Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. She is asking: AITA for proving that humans are naturally monsters? In this episode, we will be talking about the lasting impact she has on one particular Hunger Games monster, and whether the future President owes everything to his sick and twisted mentor. Just exactly how far do Gaul’s screwed up ideas affect the next 65 years of Panem?

Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes’s Dr. Gaul has been busy during the 10th Hunger Games, doing all sorts of things I’m sure she would rather us not question. She’s back asking: AITA for proving that humans are naturally monsters, while she pits children against each other in a fight to death. We think she might be purposely ignoring some pretty important facts in this experiment of hers.

Our final A-Hole of Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is Dr. Gaul. She is asking: AITA for proving that humans are naturally monsters? We say this a lot, but this woman may be the most twisted character in the entirety of the Hunger Games franchise, even beating Future President Snow. She has a questionable history even before we get into the events of the 10th Hunger Games, and that is exactly where we will be starting out judgement.

It’s time to decide if Sejanus Plinth is a walking red flag. We’re focusing on his actions in District 12, where it seems his impulsivity has finally caught up with him. Turns out Sejanus didn’t think about the consequences of signing up for the Peacekeepers , the reality of involving himself in a rebel plot and the truth about his friendship with Corio.

Sejanus is asking: AITA for letting my morals put everyone else in danger? It’s time to decide exactly where Sejanus falls on our red flag scale, and exactly how exasperated we are by his naivety.

So Sejanus Plinth finds himself in an active Hunger Games arena. No one can honestly think this is a good idea, but from the second he was given an tribute, was this always going to happen? Sejanus has the right (or wrong!) combination of opportunity and morality and it is all going downhill from here.

Sejanus is asking: AITA for letting my morals put everyone else in danger? And this is the turning point from being the only good person in the room, to taking those good intentions too far.

Once again we are talking about Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Sejanus is here to ask: AITA for letting my morals put everyone else in danger? This is going to be complicated. We’ll be talking about Sejanus’s district background, his Capitol home, and asking who let this guy mentor a tribute in the 10th Hunger Games (though the more important question might be: why)?

Our final episode for Coriolanus Snow asking: AITA for treating life and love like a strategic investment? It’s time to decide on a verdict, but not before we talk about the string of bodies Corio leaves everywhere he goes. We think the scariest part is the way he justifies these killings to himself, and honestly, we are extremely grateful this guy is fictional.

Another episode in Snow’s twisted brain. He is asking: AITA for treating life and love like a strategic investment? It’s time to talk about what Lucy Gray actually means to Coriolanus Snow. From the worst possible tribute, to the woman he supposedly chases to District 12, let’s talk about what on earth is going on there. Something tells us it is not as straight forward as first love infatuation.

We’re back in Snow’s head talking about his question: AITA for treating life and love like a strategic investment? This time we are specifically focusing on his actions as a mentor for the 10th Hunger Games. Coriolanus has his sights set on winning that scholarship prize, and he’ll be damned if he lets humanity and some scummy district kids stand in the way of that goal.

With the main trilogy over, it’s time to dive into the prequels, and that means we need to tackle President Snow’s toxic backstory. And since we cannot do that in one episode, this A-hole is split over 4 parts.

Coriolanus Snow is a bit more complex than your usual stuck-up, entitled, posh boy. He lived through a war, witnessed some atrocities, and then has to lie through his teeth to keep the life he is living. With a villain origin story like that, it was never going to go well. He is asking “AITA for treating life and love like a strategic investment?” With a question like that, no wonder it requires multiple parts!
