Hunger Games Chapters 4-5
A recap of Chapters 4–5
After arriving in the Capitol, Katniss and Peeta prepare for the televised interviews that will introduce the tributes to the audience. Haymitch advises them to make people care about them: sponsors may send useful gifts during the Games. Peeta’s interview is warm and entertaining. Near the end, he announces that he has loved Katniss for a long time. Katniss is startled and angry. She wonders whether the confession is sincere or a tactic that could make her look foolish. She also worries that the audience will see her as someone who has taken advantage of Peeta. During training, the tributes practise skills and try to show the Gamemakers what they can do. Katniss feels overlooked when the officials pay little attention to her. Frustrated, she shoots an arrow toward a roast pig on their table, striking the apple in its mouth. The Gamemakers give her a score of 11 out of 12. A high score can attract sponsors, but it can also make other tributes see her as a threat. Haymitch suggests that Katniss and Peeta use the audience’s interest in their supposed romance to their advantage. If viewers become invested in their story, they may be more willing to help them. Katniss understands the possible benefit, but she still has to decide how much of herself to reveal and how much to perform for the cameras.
