Especially if you take Snow's words at face value or consider that he might be deluding Katniss.President Coin: Evil or a revolutionary leader doing what she felt she had to in order to keep a new prospective country stable?.Did he know or trust that Plutarch would never let Katniss be executed, when stopping Katniss from taking the nightlock pills after she shot Coin? Or was he acting in the heat of the moment since Katniss broke the script, shooting Coin instead of Snow? It could be argued either way, given he shows up in District 12 saying exactly what Katniss needs to hear to break her Heroic BSoD and actually start doing therapy.Peeta Mellark: Devoted star-crossed lover or Stalker with a Crush who uses the Games to invoke Stockholm Syndrome?.The first movie throws more credence out there, showing Foxface whizzing through a plant identification test during the training scenes. Since she knew she was no match for the remaining three tributes, she opted for the quickest, most painless way to go and did it in a way that her family at home wouldn't get in any trouble. ![]() Many people suspect it was no accident but a deliberate suicide. In any case, Foxface clearly doesn't use violence in her strategy of avoiding others and looting their supplies, which possibly makes her one of the more moral tributes in the Games. However, even then one could make the argument that she was afraid Katniss would hear the fight (or the cannon), and would reach her before she could escape. It's much easier to believe Foxface is a pacifist if one considers that upon an encounter with an unaware, lone Peeta, she stole his food instead of attacking him. Katniss at least believes that Foxface would kill her and Rue if approached for their alliance, but we are never shown anything to suggest (or disprove) this. However, she may have avoided the others because she knew she was no match against them, while being perfectly okay with the idea of killing them (and simply never having an occasion to do it). or out of pragmatism? She's often interpreted as a Nice Girl and a Badass Pacifist because she's never shown attacking another Tribute.
