"' Clove!' I hear Cato's answer, but he's too far away, I can tell that much, to do her any good. His allies eventually manage to calm him down, and the Careers stride back into the woods to hunt. When Cato returns with his allies, he descends into a fit of rage and snaps the neck of the District 3 male, killing him instantly. Carefully shooting open a bag of apples, which spill out onto the ground around the Careers' camp, Katniss manages to activate all the mines at once, effectively destroying the Careers' supplies. This makes Katniss realize that the District 3 male has reactivated the mines in the form of a booby trap. In their absence, Foxface manages to steal supplies from the Careers' camp by stepping carefully around the mine indentations. When the Careers catch sight of smoke from Rue's lit fire (a decoy for the Careers), they go to kill her, taking the District 3 male along at Cato's insistence. Ĭato yells at the District 3 male after the supplies blow up Some time later, while the Careers are still nursing their wounds, Cato and his allies stumble upon the District 3 male, whom they let join their alliance on the condition that he rewires the mines in the arena to protect their supplies. " When we find her, I kill her in my own way, and no one interferes." ―Cato on Katniss Enraged at Peeta's betrayal, Cato engages the other tribute in a fight, a fight which Peeta swiftly loses, escaping only with a severe leg wound, tracker jacker strings, and burns retained from the fire. As he does so, Cato cuts his way through the brush and realizes what Peeta has done. With the Careers distracted, Katniss manages to pry the bow and arrows from Glimmer's corpse, but Peeta returns and urges her to run. While Glimmer and the District 4 female die from their stings before they can make it to safety, Cato and the others escape to a nearby lake, where they fend off the remaining insects. While stuck in the tree, Katniss cuts down a tracker jacker nest, which falls onto the sleeping Careers and chases them away from her tree. At the urging of Peeta, the Careers decide to make camp below Katniss's tree so she can't escape without them knowing. Glimmer tries next, but meets the same failure. Cato attempts to follow her into the tree, but he falls due to his heavy weight. Why don't you come on up?"Ī few days into the Games, after an enormous fire forces the tributes together, the Careers find Katniss and chase her up a tree. Katniss: "It's been a bit warm for my taste. Tracker jackers Katniss: "How's everything with you?" In his absence, the Careers argue over whether they should let him live or not, though they ultimately decide to leave him alive, as he is their best chance at finding Katniss. The Careers attempt to kill her, but when the Gamemakers withhold cannon fire, Peeta goes back to "finish the job". On the first night of the Games, the Careers manage to track down the District 8 female via the fire she foolishly starts in the middle of the night. He provokes a fight with the other boy, threatening to make him his first target, until the Peacekeepers separate them, as conflict before the Games is not allowed. Later on in the film, Cato is angered when he thinks that the District 6 male took his knife, which was actually stolen by Rue. In the film, the Careers target Peeta's weakness and view him as what Katniss describes as a "meal" until Peeta shows his true strength by throwing a 100-pound metal ball into a rack of spears. He most likely shows off these skills to the Gamemakers in his private session, as he receives a high training score of 10. In the novel, Cato trains at the spear-throwing station and displays his prowess with the weaponry. In the Training Center, Cato and his fellow tributes train and prepare for the Games. " I've been preoccupied with watching the boy from District 2 send a spear through a dummy’s heart from fifteen yards." ― Katniss's thoughts in the Training Center
